Abstract: A catalytic reaction process which involves exposing a hydrocarbon feed including nitrogenous contaminants as well as dialkyl sulfides to a material capable of adsorbing the nitrogenous contaminants as well as dialkyl sulfides from the feed before introducing the stream substantially devoid of nitrogenous contaminants and dimethyl sulfide into a feed zone of a reactor; contacting the hydrocarbon stream with a catalyst material in the reaction zone; and catalytically reacting the hydrocarbon stream under conditions which favor forming a reaction product and inhibiting reaction of nitrogenous contaminants and dimethyl sulfide with the catalyst material.

Abstract: The tubing injection apparatus of the present invention includes a frame upon which is mounted a pair of opposed endless flexible conveyor members (50,52). The conveyor members have opposed elongated parallel runs spaced apart to form a path for engagement with the tubing by gripper blocks disposed on the conveyor members. The conveyor members are trained over spaced apart drive sprockets (58,60) and idler wheels (54,56). Rollers (170) are reciprocally disposed on the frame adjacent that side of the opposed elongated parallel runs opposite the path and adapted for engagement with the gripper blocks. The conveyor members include two strands of chain having projecting pins. The gripper blocks are mounted on the projecting pins such that the surface of the projecting pins is coincident with that surface of the gripper blocks which engages the rollers. Hydraulic piston and cylinder assemblies (172,174,176,178) inserted on the frame have rams (182,184,186,188) adapted to engage the rollers (170) so that the rollers may engage the gripper blocks upon actuation of the hydraulic piston and cylinder assemblies. The piston and cylinder assemblies are connected to a common fluid pressure source. The rollers apply a varied force against the gripper blocks such that the gripper blocks grip that portion of the tubing along the path adjacent the well with less force than that portion of the tubing on the path further away from the well. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method and device for packaging fabric bales, there being used to form a protective wrapping a protective foil, the start of which is inserted into the gusset between the bale and the end-piece of the fabric, and thereafter a rotation of the bale in the winding direction taking place. Subsequently, the protective foil is cut off and fastened to the wrapping. If a foil which is shrinkable under the influence of heat is used, the closing of the wrapper ends projecting from the bale is carried out by means of hot-air streams which move radially relative to the bale during the rotational movement of the latter. The shrink foil is pressed against the bale ends by the use of laterally arranged plates. The entire packaging operation takes place advantageously on rollers which receive the fabric bale for a severing operation.

<??>So that the block (B) can be cut rationally and in a way which produces waste which can be easily removed, the block (B) is cut into, before tangential cutting or during tangential cutting, essentially along planes radial to the shaped-part surface up to the shaped-part surface, the cuts (R) being longitudinally approximately parallel to one another and being made in the region of the shaped-part surface at a maximum distance from one another which corresponds to the width of the tangential cuts (T). A horn (2) having a shank part (5) which extends in the direction of oscillation and a cutter (4) which is added to the end of the latter and has a transversely extending cutting part (6) is used for cutting, the shank part (5) and the cutting part (6) of the said horn (2) forming cutting edges (8, 9a; 9b).

Abstract: An improved process for the manufacture of maleic anhydride by catalytic oxidation of a nonaromatic hydrocarbon having at least four carbon atoms in a straight chain, in which a gas containing oxygen and hydrocarbon is passed through a fixed catalyst bed in a tubular reactor. The activity of the catalyst bed is graded in such manner that the reactor can be operated at an initial (feed gas) hydrocarbon concentration of over 1.5% by volume, an integrated average temperature difference between gas and cooling fluid of at least about 15 DEG  C. over that portion of the bed in which the gas temperature exceeds the cooling fluid temperature, and a productivity of at least about 5.0 lbs. maleic anhydride per hour, without the temperature difference between the gas and the cooling fluid exceeding 80 DEG  C. at any point in the catalyst bed during the course of the reaction. Preferably, the catalyst activity and the gas permeability of the bed vary in the direction of gas flow so that both the catalyst activity and the pressure drop per unit distance are lower in a critical region, where the combination of temperature and hydrocarbon concentration could otherwise cause the reaction to proceed at an excessive rate, than they are in a region of low temperature and low hydrocarbon concentration. Significant and unexpected improvement in reactor performance is achieved by the combination of a graded catalyst charge and incorporation of a catalyst modifying organophosphorus compound in the hydrocarbon feed.

Abstract: An algorithm is described for sparsely updating the filter coefficients of an adaptive filter of an adaptive audio system to facilitate a high sampling rate without excessive processing capacity. Computer simulations are used to illustrate the potential for using an inverse filter matrix to manipulate the position of stereophonic images. The possibilities suggested could be used in conjunction with existing stereophonic recordings in order to improve stereophonic imaging in situations where the relative locations of loudspeakers and listener are constrained to be non-ideal. In one arrangement, real sound sources (S1, S2) provide to the listener the impression that the sources are at more widely-spaced positions (V1, V2). In another arrangement, employing four sound sources (S1, S2, S3, S4) the impression is created at two listener locations (M1, M2; M3, M4) that the sound is coming from a pair of sound sources positioned symmetrically of those listener locations. <IMAGE>
