摘要:
A process for renewing a cylinder head, preferably a cast aluminum water cooled cylinder head from a used condition to a rebuilt condition suitable for reuse. In a qualifying stage the used cylinder head is stripped of removable parts, inspected, heat treated for cleaning and stress relieving purposes, and then pressure tested to detect leaks through cracks or excessive porosity. If cracks are located, the cylinder head passes through a reconstruction stage wherein cracked areas are removed and replaced by welded material, recontoured and preferably again pressure tested. A cylinder head which did not need reconstruction (or after reconstruction) then passes to the rebuilding stage where it is essentially machined and component parts replaced. Included in the rebuilding stage is a line-boring and surface gasket facing procedure for eliminating the adverse effects of warpage and a vacuum impregnation step to seal the pores of the cylinder head.

Methods and compositions are provided for the production and use of enzymes that degrade lipopolysaccharide bioemulsifiers, and, in particular, emulsans. The enzymes may be used to demulsify bioemulsifier-stabilized hydrocarbon-in-water emulsions.

Growth of Arthrobacter Sp. ATCC 31012 on fatty acid substrates produces a new class of extracellular microbial protein-associated lipopolysaccharides (the ".alpha.-emulsans"). Deproteinization of .alpha.-emulsans by hot phenol extraction produces the lipopolysaccharide components (the "apo-.alpha.-emulsans") of such emulsans, which components have been shown to be completely N-acylated and partially O-acylated heteropolysaccharides made up of major amounts of D-galactosamine and an aminouronic acid, such apo-.alpha.-emulsans containing at least 5 percent by weight of O-substituted fatty acid esters in which the fatty acids contain from about 10 to about 18 carbon atoms. .alpha.-Emulsans and apo-.alpha.-emulsans, both of which biopolymers are strongly anionic, exhibit a high degree of specificity in the emulsification of hydrocarbon substrates which contain both aliphatic and cyclic components. In addition, these extracellular microbial polysaccharides as well as their O-deacylated and N-deacylated derivatives are adsorbed on and capable of flocculating aluminosilicate ion-exchangers, such as kaolin and bentonite.
摘要:
Oil is removed from sea water, for example, in the cleaning of tanks of oil transport ships, by utilizing bacteria or cell-free solutions from such bacteria in a confined space with the addition of a source of nitrogen and a source of phosphorus, under aerated conditions. The resultant microbial fermentation converts the oil to protein-containing by-products making it possible to discharge the contents of the tanks without oil contamination and, if desired, to recover useful by-products.
摘要:
A system and method for treating wastewater by continuously flowing wastewater into a chemostat and continuously discharging clean water out of the chemostat. The system can include sensors and an electronic controller for on-line measuring ambient parameters in the chemostat and adjusting the chemostat's operating conditions accordingly.

摘要:
Growth of Acinetobacter Sp. ATCC 31012 on various substrates and under varying conditions has been used to produce two classes of extracellular microbial protein-associated lipopolysaccharides (the "emulsans") which, on a weight-for-weight basis, are probably the most efficient emulsifiers discovered and which possess certain characteristics that permit these unique extracellular microbial lipopolysaccharides to be widely used in cleaning oil-contaminated vessels, oil spill management, and enhanced oil recovery by chemical flooding. Emulsans and apoemulsans, both of which biopolymers are strongly anionic, exhibit a high degree of specificity in the emulsification of hydrocarbon substrates which contain both aliphatic and cyclic components. In addition, these extracellular microbial polysaccharides as well as their O-deacylated and N-deacylated derivatives are adsorbed on and capable of flocculating aluminosilicate ion-exchangers, such as kaolin and bentonite.
