Title: System of handling refuse derived fuel utilizing same to fire power plants
Inventor: DUMBAUGH GEORGE D
IPC: F23K3/00
Filed: 1988-08-10
Granted: 1990-10-11
Abstract: A system for handling refuse derived fuel (RDF) devised to make RDF fired power plants practical, that includes a method and apparatus for receiving, storing and discharging, distributing and feeding RDF at the plant that accepts such material for fuel, which has been shredded to a predetermined nominal size and usually has most of the ferrous metals removed therefrom, which system includes a relatively large activated bin for primary surge capacity purposes that initially receives and stores the RDF, to provide a binned quantity of same from which as continuous flow of the RDF can be generated that will result in a pulsation free, steady supply of RDF to the plant furnace or furnaces, for firing the power plant involved, with one or more trains located adjacent the locale of the plant furnace to be fired, each of which includes several metering activated bins that are actuated to supply an underlying vibrating feeder that conveys the RDF to the furnace fuel chute, with the activated metering bins of each train being supplied from by one, or parallel, vibrating conveyors. For some trains, two metering bins can be provided for redundancy, that is, for the purpose of using either of such bins to supply the RDF to the vibrating feeder underlying same in the event that one of such activated bin arrangement does not operate.

Title: Process for manufacturing high bulk density particulate fabric softening synthetic anionic organic detergent compositions
Inventor: BIANCHI ANTONIO
IPC: C11D11/02
Filed: 1989-04-21
Granted: 1992-05-21
Abstract: A process for manufacturing a high bulk density particulate detergent composition, of a bulk density greater than 0.7 g/cc and preferably in the range of 0.8 to 1.0 g/cc, includes turbodrying a mixture of synthetic anionic organic detergent, preferably of sodium C12-13 linear alkylbenzene sulphonate, water, and fabric softening bentonite, in which turbodrying process the mixture is repeatedly subjected to centrifugal and axial forces which create thin films of the mixture, which are pulled apart, due to such forces, to form particles, which are further turbodried and thereby converted to high bulk density particles of substantially globular shape and desired particle sizes. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the mixture charged to the turbodryer is made by turbomixing an aqueous solution, dispersion or paste of anionic detergent with bentonite, and the mixture made thereby is directly turbodried. Also described are combined turbomixing and turbodrying apparatuses, and products of the invented processes.
