摘要:
A rotary pressure filter apparatus, a sealing device for use with the rotary pressure filter apparatus, and a process of using the apparatus. The rotary pressure filter apparatus is designed to treat a solid-liquid mixture under pressure in successive work zones. A rotary drum moves compartments containing the solid-liquid mixture through the successive zones. The zones are separated by a sealing member, which is designed to reduce pressure fluctuations as the compartments enter a successive zone.
摘要:
A method for forming an aromatic diacid and/or an aromatic diacid precursor from a polyester-containing feedstock. The method comprises contacting the polyester-containing feedstock with water or an alcohol to depolymerize the polyester and thereby form an aromatic diacid and/or an aromatic diacid precursor, wherein the polyester-containing feedstock comprises about 80 wt% or more polyester and about 1 wt% or more of at least one secondary material, and wherein the at least one secondary material is not polyester.
