Title: Drying device
Inventor: AERTS ALOISIUS JOHANNES
IPC: F26B17/08

Granted: 2004-08-11
Abstract: Devices for drying poultry manure, for example, are known in practice. Two or more belt conveyors (5, 8, 9, 10) with a perforated conveyor belt (5a, 8a, 9a, 10a) are arranged above one another in a drying chamber (20). The belt conveyors (5, 8, 9, 10) divide the drying chamber (20) into alternating top compartments (24) and bottom compartments (23). The bottom compartments (23) are in communication with a pressure chamber (14) via inlet openings (30), while the top compartments (24) are in communication with the environment via outlet openings (31). To ensure that, at least during operation, there is only a flow of air from a bottom compartment (23) to a top compartment (24) located directly above it in the drying chamber (20), a partition element is arranged between a bottom compartment (23) and the top compartment (24) located immediately below it. The invention is based on the insight that the partition element can be omitted from the device if a bottom compartment (23) and the top compartment (24) located immediately below it are at substantially the same pressure.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for improving the sensitivity in measurements when performing electrochemical analysis containing low metal concentrations and a means for performing electrochemical analysis. Ordinary stirring has to be avoided during the voltammetric scanning due to the low reproducibility when stirring takes place. A sound exposure, however, can be performed during the entire measurement, increasing the sensitivity. Further it is concluded that sound exposure close to the resonant frequency, has improvement effects at least comparable to stirring, and thus all mechanical stirring can be avoided. It is found that audible sound in the low frequency range, around 100 Hz is very effective for this purpose, with an increase of the analytical signal up to about 300%, without any significant increase in the corresponding noise level.

Abstract: In a filter press, a stack of vertically oriented, horizontally displaceable filter plates enclose filter chambers therebetween. The filter plates are successively moved relative to each other from a closed pressing position, through a pressure relief position, to an open discharge position. At least one connecting element is connected to each filter plate, and is movably coupled to the respective adjacent filter plate by a coupling pin, which slides in a specially configured groove of the connecting element. In the relief position, a respective coupling pin is stopped against an intermediate blocking surface of the groove of the connecting element of the next adjacent filter plate, thereby preventing further horizontal displacement. By unlatching the connecting element, the coupling pin can then slide to a stop surface of the groove, to allow the adjacent filter plates to be displaced farther into the open discharge position.
