Abstract: A method is described of drawing a pre-oriented multifilament yarn (POY yarn). Hereby the multifilament yarn is fed from a delivery godet, around which it is wrapped, at a first velocity into a main drawing zone and removed from the main drawing zone at a second velocity by a drawing-off godet around which it is wrapped. The drawing in the main drawing zone takes place between the delivery godet and the drawing-off godet whereby the drawing-off godet is heated to a temperature of between 160.degree. C. and 240.degree. C. The first and the second velocities are so adjusted with respect to each other that the second velocity is 70% to 180% greater than the first velocity.

Abstract: An installation for heat recovery from warm household drain water produced at household water consumption points, comprising a distributor tank, a first pipeline system which delivers warm household drain water from the consumption points to the distributor tank, a drain water channel, a heat exchange tank, and a second pipeline system which conveys warm household drain water to the heat exchange tank. The distributor tank has a first outlet leading into the drain water channel with a shut-off device which opens when the household drain water is below a predetermined temperature, and a second outlet into the second pipeline system when the household drain water in the distributor tank is above the predetermined temperature. Within the heat exchange tank is a coil containing cold drinking water which is heated by the household drain water.
