Abstract: An apparatus for gas treatment for a bath of liquid aluminum at rest in a furnace having a roof and in which the bath has a surface area of at least 10 m2. The apparatus comprises a movable gantry placed over the furnace and from which are suspended at least three gas injector assemblies which are more than 2 m long each. The injector assemblies are partially immersed in the bath through openings in the roof of the furnace and the immersed parts are separated from each other solely by the bath. The assemblies each comprise a rotary shaft having a rotor at its lower end joined to a plurality of blades. Through the axis of the shaft there is a cavity which opens above the furnace and which communicates at its lower end with passages in the blades. Means are provided above the furnace for rotating the shafts and for connecting the cavities to a source of treating gas. Each shaft is enclosed by a stator which extends from a point above the roof downwardly to a point close to the upper surface of the rotor to provide a space between the rotor and the stator which is adapted to be filled with the bath and to serve as a shock absorber.

Abstract: A video distribution system transmits selected video programs to a number of independently controlled video monitors. The video monitors are arranged in groups, each group being coupled to a distinct transmission medium. A program selector associated with each video monitor generates video connection requests which specify a video source to be connected to that video monitor. A two stage video switch apparatus couples specified video sources to specified video monitors. The first stage routes specified video signals from the video sources to the second stage, which is a frequency multiplexer. The frequency multiplexer then transmits the specified video signals for each group of video monitors in distinct frequency bands on one of the transmission mediums. Each video monitor within each group of monitors has a tuner that is tuned to receive the video signal in a distinct one of the frequency bands. In effect, the transmission medium for each group of video monitors has a separate transmission channel for each of the monitors in the group. Finally, the system has a controller which receives the video connection requests, and controls the video switch apparatus so that it couples specified video sources to specified video monitors.

Abstract: A method for reducing the viscosity of viscous petroleum liquids, such as heavy crude oil and bitumen, is disclosed. The method is appropriate for use with viscous petroleum liquids that contain sulfur-bearing heterocycles, the physicochemical properties of the heterocycles contributing significantly to the viscosity of the liquid. The method comprises contacting the viscous petroleum liquid with a biocatalyst that converts sulfur-bearing heterocycles into molecules that lack physicochemical properties condusive to viscosity. The biocatalyst works in a sulfur-specific manner, such that the sulfur-bearing heterocycle is altered at the sulfur heteroatom thereof. Through biocatalysis, carbon-sulfur bonds are cleaved and/or polar substituents such as hydroxyl groups are joined to the sulfur heteroatom, the hydrocarbon framework of the sulfur-bearing heterocycle, or both. Preferred biocatalysts for viscosity reduction include preparations of Rhodococcus rhodochrous ATCC No. 53968 microorganisms and enzymes obtained therefrom.

Abstract: A hydraulic telescoping ram of the type suitable to tip dump trucks and the like, which permits the use of outer aggressive seals and a bore sealing device by providing a conduit which hydraulically connects the upper end of each cylinder of the telescopic ram with an oil reservoir. This makes it possible to use seals which are not aggressive and which can run on surfaces of somewhat less than top quality, on the internal bottom faces of the rams so as to allow the passage of a small quantity of oil into a gap formed within the ram and cylinder and between the aggressive and non-aggressive seals. The oil which passes the non-aggressive seal is returned to the oil reservoir when the ram is extended.

The solution contains iodine at a concentration of from 0.005 to 3 grams/liter and one or more solvents selected from the groups consisting of: alcohols, ketones, polyalcohols, esters, ethers, or mixtures thereof of solvents belonging to the same group or to several groups of these solvents. The solvent, if miscible with water, contains distilled water in a ratio of from 99:1 to 1:99 parts by volume. If not miscible in water, the solvent is saturated with distilled water at a temperature of 20 DEG  C. The solution is preferably contained in ballpoint pens, fountain pens or other similar dispensers which are then used to countersign the paper currency. A counterfeit currency will cause a visible line to appear on the currency, in about one minute. However, in the case of genuine paper currency, the drawn line of solution does not change color and disappears completely from the countersigned currency.
