    摘要: A high-pressure high-velocity target inserter for use in steam cleaning. The target inserter uses an actuator connected to a tube assembly, which connects to a test line. The target inserter uses packing to prevent high-pressure steam from being released through the target inserter when the target rod is inserted and withdrawn from the line. In the preferred embodiment, the target rod passes through a remotely operated actuator controlled valve and a remotely controlled actuator controller, such that the operator is kept a safe distance away from the inserter when the access valve to the line is open.

    摘要: A laser machining (including marking) method that employs a diode laser pumped solid state laser is controlled by a computer that contains a program for the interaction of the laser beam with a workpiece. The pumping of the laser is synchronised with the action of the beam in a series of active machining periods alternating with inactive non-machining periods. In order to avoid overheating of the active element, the duty cycle of these periods is maintained below a chosen value and no active period is allowed to exceed a selected percentage of the thermal time constant of the active element.

    摘要: A counterflow single-screw extractor includes a screw conveyor having a helical scroll formed from arcuate flight sections each having a plurality of elongated slots extending away from the direction of screw rotation and permitting the flow of effluent through the product and the flights in a manner controlled by the size, number, and orientation of the slots. The slots permit efficient extraction using relatively little extraction medium and at the same time permit a single-screw extractor to be used without having to periodically reverse the direction of screw rotation to unclog the slots and by the pitch of the screw conveyor. The inventive arrangement permits the use of a multi-section extractor employing different extraction media and/or different extraction media wash rates in different sections of the extractor.

    摘要: A vapor clarification system includes a suction box and a plurality of fans located on top of the suction box. The fans withdraws a moisture-laden stream from the suction box and centrifugally accelerates it, producing a clarified vapor stream and a secondary vapor stream that is heavily laden with particulate matter. The secondary vapor stream leaving each fan passes through a cyclone, where particulate matter falls out of the vapor stream. The partially clarified vapor stream leaving the cyclone is returned to the suction box and re-accelerated in the fans. By placing the fans on top of the suction box, there is a reduction in the temperature drop occurring in the vapor stream which exits the fans; this in turn reduces condensation and improves the efficiency of the system. Primary cyclones are preferably disposed within the suction box, and secondary cyclones may be placed outside of the suction box. The number of fans can also be modified to meet varying system requirements, thus providing a more flexible air-clarification system.

    摘要: A novel water softening membrane and process for making the same is described. The membrane can be prepared by treating a polyamide reverse osmosis membrane with a strong mineral acid followed by treatment with a rejection enhancing agent. The resulting membrane at transmembrane pressures of 50 psi can attain a magnesium sulfate rejection with a 0.2 percent aqueous solution of more than 90 percent with a water flux of more than 15 gallons per square foot per day.

    摘要: A newspaper de-inking system and process require much less water than conventional de-inking systems and which require much lower capital expenditure. The system removes ink from newspaper pulp in a continuous process using one or more extractors each of which performs a de-inking operation equivalent to 6 or more stages of a conventional de-inking process using reactor tanks. Water and heat are conserved still further by employing an evaporator to separate pure water from the extractor effluent and by recycling the purified water to the extractor and to other components of the system. A particularly preferred extractor employs a counterflow single-screw conveyor the flights of which have slots formed therethrough which extend counter to the direction of screw rotation. The slots permit efficient extraction using relatively little de-inking solution and at the same time obviate the need to periodically reverse the direction of screw rotation to unclog the slots. The flow of de-inking solution through the pulp and flights is determined by the dimension, number, and orientation of the slots, and by the pitch of the screw conveyor.

    摘要翻译: 报纸脱墨系统和工艺要求比常规脱墨系统要少得多的水,而且需要更少的资本支出。 该系统使用一个或多个提取器在连续方法中从报纸纸浆中除去油墨,每个萃取器执行相当于使用反应器罐的常规去墨处理的6个或更多个阶段的脱墨操作。 通过使用蒸发器将纯水与萃取器流出物分离并通过将净化水再循环到萃取器和系统的其它组分而进一步保持水和热。 特别优选的提取器采用逆流单螺旋输送机,其中螺旋输送器的螺旋具有穿过其形成的槽,其与螺杆旋转的方向相反地延伸。 狭槽允许使用相对较少的脱墨溶液进行有效的提取,并且同时避免需要周期性地反转螺杆旋转的方向来解除狭槽。 通过纸浆和飞行的脱墨溶液的流动由槽的尺寸,数量和取向以及螺旋输送机的间距确定。
