Choosing an extractor for a specific set of plant conditions can be complicated and costly, if you make the wrong purchasing decision. Extractors come in two types: centrifugal and compression, but there are numerous models of each. Here, eight manufacturers of extractors provide details about their systems. 相似文献
When using miniature ultrasonic hydrophones to probe the focal region of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy devices, the frequency response of the measurement hydrophone and any associated amplifier must be broad enough to minimize pulse distortion. To study the potential effects of the bandwidth-limited behavior, a mathematical model was used. Several parameters of a simulated lithotripsy pulse were compared before and after being filtered by hydrophone and amplifier response functions. Errors were computed for the peak positive and negative pressures, risetime, pulse duration, and pulse intensity integral as functions of hydrophone and amplifier bandwidths. Although most of the energy in a shock wave pulse lies at frequencies below a few megahertz, it is found that significant errors can occur unless measurement bandwidths are much wider. 相似文献
The thermal decomposition behavior of poly[3,3-bis(ethoxymethyl)oxetane] (polyBEMO) was examined and compared to the decomposition of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(tetramethylene oxide) (polyTHF). Differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) studies as a function of heating rates and at constant temperature as a function of time yielded activation energies of 45–50 kcal/mol, characteristic of polyether decomposition. First-order decomposition kinetics were found. The reaction is endothermic, with a heat of decomposition of 18.6 kcal/mol. Effusion mass spectroscopy on polyBEMO showed major peaks at 112, 140, 168, and 174 amu. A mechanism is proposed in which the thermal scission of the ether bonds in both the polymer chain and in the appendanges initiates the decomposition. The main decomposition reaction for polyBEMO can be written as where the appendages and main chain are cleaved in an unknown order. 相似文献
Catalytic degradation of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) was carried out under nitrogen using a laboratory fluidised bed reactor operating at 360 °C with catalyst to polymer feed ratio of 2:1 and at 450 °C with catalyst to polymer feed ratio of 6:1 under atmospheric pressure. The catalysts used in this study were ZSM-5, US-Y, ASA, fresh FCC (fluid catalytic cracking) commercial catalyst (Cat-A) and equilibrium FCC catalysts with different levels of metal poisoning were studied. The initial results for polymer degradation at 360 °C (catalyst to polymer ratio of 2:1) in a fluidised bed reactor in terms of the yield of volatile hydrocarbon products were: model catalysts>commercial FCC catalyst>E-Cats. However, when the process conditions more closely resembled to FCC conditions, the fresh commercial FCC catalyst was more favourable in terms of the yield of volatile hydrocarbon products. The degradation of HDPE over E-Cats although reduced was similar to ASA in product selectivity and yield, and the level of metal contamination did not affect the product stream generated. A simple economic evaluation of polymer recycling process is reported showing that a catalytic system based on E-Cats appears comparable in costs to a commercial thermal cracking plant. 相似文献
A series of noncyclic acetal-linked cleavable surfactants were simply prepared by condensation of aldehydes with poly(ethylene
glycol) monomethyl ethers. All of the products were characterized by1H nuclear magnetic resonance. Their hydrophile-lipophile balance, surface tension, cloud point, critical micelle concentration,
and foam height were determined. Hydrolysis kinetic studies, followed by gas chromatography, showed that they had higher hydrolytic
reactivity in acidic solution than cyclic acetal-linked cleavable surfactants. 相似文献
The stepwise HBr titration method for the cyclopropenoid analysis of cottonseed oils is subject to serious inaccuracies when
applied to samples containing higher cyclopropenoid concentrations, particularly if they contain appreciable amounts of alumina-adsorbable
materials. A modification of the method is described which eliminates these sources of error. Its validity has been established
by the analysis of a wide range of synthetic compositions including compositions containing massive amounts of interfering
HBr-reactive substances and other alumina-adsorbable materials. The method with further modification can be used to analyze
glycerides with the same high degree of accuracy.
