摘要:
A process and method for the production of endophytes as plant inoculant products, specifically Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, for the promotion of plant vigor, health, growth and yield are disclosed. The endophyte, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710 produces a fungal conidial preparation by utilizing a discrete solid substrate fermentation system, namely Potato Dextrose Agar or Malt Extract Agar. Additionally, the endophyte, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, can act as an inoculant to stimulate and have an additive effect with rhizobium bacteria on the production of nitrogen fixing nodules on legumes and growth enhancement e.g. beans, soybeans, peas and alfalfa. As well, Clonostachys rosea strain 88-710, can combine with rooting hormones, e.g. indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) to provide inoculant and rooting benefits to cuttings/transplants of plants.
摘要:
An improved process for separating a hydrocarbon bearing feed gas containing methane and lighter, C2 (ethylene and/or ethane), and heavier components into a fraction containing predominantly methane and lighter components and a fraction containing predominantly C2 and heavier hydrocarbon components including the steps of cooling and partially condensing and delivering the feed stream to a separator to provide a first residue vapor and a first liquid containing C2, directing a first part of the first liquid containing C2 into a heavy-ends fractionation column wherein the liquid is separated into a second hydrocarbon bearing vapor residue and a second liquid product containing C2; further cooling the second part of the first liquid containing C2 and partially condensing the second hydrocarbon bearing vapor residue; combining the cooled second part of the first liquid and partially condensed second hydrocarbon-bearing vapor residue and directing them to a second separator effecting a third residue and a third liquid; cooling and directing a first part of the third liquid into the lights-ends fractionation column, to thereby condense C2's and heavier components while the methane is evaporated in the light-ends fractionation column to thereby obtain fourth residue vapor and liquid, heating and supplying the fourth liquid recovered from the light-ends fractionation column to the heavy-ends fractionation column as a feed thereto; conducting the second part of the third liquid to the heavy-ends fractionation column as a feed thereto.

There is provided an agrochemical formulation aid composition for use with technical grade, manufacturing concentrates or pre-formulated Agricultural Chemicals/pesticides, fertilizers and the like comprising about 1 to 99 parts by weight of monocarbamide dihydrogen sulphate and 50 to 10 parts by weight of a blend, said blend comprising: 1-99% by weight of a phosphate ester blend; 99-1% by weight of a tallow amine ethoxylate; 0-5% by weight of a fatty acid methyl ester; 0-0.5% by weight of a free fatty acid blend; 0-0.5% by weight of 2N-octanol; 0-1% by weight of oleyl-cetyl alcohol; 0-0.1% by weight of N-butanol; 0-1.5% by weight of polyethylene glycol; and balance, if any, of water. Also provided are methods of preparing the formulation aid composition on site by mixing various components and methods of preparing sprayable and bioactive agrochemical systems using the formulation aid and non-formulated or formulated agrochemicals. Also provided are uses of the formulation aid in preparing sprayable and bioactive agrochemical systems for controlling pests.
摘要:
Process is described for reducing emissions of nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide from fuel gas fired boilers by using a computer to closely control the flow rate of combustion air and by installing a duct to allow flue gas to recirculate into the air intake of the boiler. In most cases strict emission standards can be met without making any other mechanical modifications to the boiler. A computer controller maps burner characteristics and controls both a variable speed drive and the damper on the combustion air fan, and a damper on recirculated flue gas to meet emission requirements over the various firing rates while maintaining a stable flame free of pulsations. In some burners a simple cone structure placed in the burner provides additional flame stability.
摘要:
A solar electric power generating process is described which consists of tapwater thermally contacted with special brine. Low pressure characteristics of the brine draw steam through a power generating turbine from the water into the brine. As the brine is pumped over an open air evaporator, excess water picked up by the brine is driven off using solar or waste heat.

A solar electric power generating process is described which consists of tapwater thermally contacted with special brine. Low pressure characteristics of the brine draw steam through a power-generating turbine from the water into the brine. As the brine is pumped over an open air evaporator, excess water picked up by the brine is driven off using solar or waste heat. The tapwater is first purified in a demineralizer.

A steam absorber apparatus is described which consists of horizontal tubes submerged in desiccant brine with steam injected from a perforated box positioned beneath the tubes. The injected steam is absorbed into the brine, warming the brine, tubes, and water flowing within the tubes.
摘要:
An ultrasonic pressure test method and apparatus that utilizes a reflectoscope, and an oscilloscope and an ultrasonic crystal and wherein the length of time that it takes for an echo to be returned is measured to provide a method and means for measuring and using the ultrasonic readings to determine whether the contents or pressure of a bottle, container or other member is proper or of the desired or safe quantity.

摘要:
An acoustical equalization device is designed to be attached to the front of a stereo speaker and includes a plurality of moveable baffles which may be used to either reflect or absorb sound waves being emitted from the speaker. The baffles can be slidably positioned along a plurality of rods forming a part of the device and may be pivoted into a desired sound adjusting position. Modified baffles include through-extending apertures into which sound modifying cones may be removably positioned, while the cones may be provided with pivotal closures to further affect sound quality. The device is used as an aid in equalizing a sound system so as to obtain the best audio response curve without the use of electronic equalization systems.
