Abstract:
A method of testing the composition or quality of water includes dissolving about two parts by weight of a 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and about one part by weight of a sodium nitroprusside in about seventy-five parts by weight of a polyethylene glycol; adding the sodium nitroprusside solution to a water sample to catalyze an indophenol monochloramine reaction; and detecting the concentration of monochloramine in the water sample. The polyethylene glycol may be a polyethylene glycol 300, a PEG-400 or a PEG-1000. The method may also be accomplished with a solution made by dissolving a 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol and a sodium nitroprusside in a mixture of propane-1,2-diol and water.
Abstract:
A halocyanoacetamide compound having the formula: ##STR1## wherein X is a halogen such as Cl, F, Br and I; Y represents a halogen such as chlorine, fluorine, bromine and iodine or hydrogen atom; andR represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group containing from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, is stabilized with an organic carboxylic acid or a diol.
Abstract:
There is prepared a powdery anticaking agent for inorganic salts based on (A) an iron cyanide complex, (B) a water insoluble inorganic, inert, finely divided hydroxyl group containing material or a material able to form this in the production of the anticaking agent, (C) hydrophobizing and/or (D) hydrophilizing materials in which (A), (C) and/or (D) are employed on component (B) as a carrier together with (E) water in an amount of 20 to 50 weight percent, preferable 35 to 45 weight percent. The composition is prepared by intensively mixing the carrier (B) in the corresponding ratio in the dry state with the active materials at room temperature and then adding to this mixture so much water that the active components go into solution and as such are absorbed on the carrier and regulating the pH to 7 to 9, preferably 7 to 8.
Abstract:
An apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a bubble implosion reactor cavitation device. The bubble implosion reactor cavitation device includes a tube-shaped cylindrical body including an upstream, a distal end surface and a downstream, proximal end surface. The tube-shaped cylindrical body defines an axial passage that extends through the tube-shaped cylindrical body between the upstream, distal end surface and the downstream, proximal end surface. The apparatus also includes a bubble generator subassembly connected to the tube-shaped cylindrical body. The bubble generator subassembly is at least partially disposed within the axial passage defined by the tube-shaped cylindrical body. The apparatus also includes a retaining member connected to the tube-shaped cylindrical body for retaining the bubble generator subassembly within the axial passage defined by the tube-shaped cylindrical body.
