Abstract: The invention provides for a process and apparatus for preparing a soap concentrate, including: (a) introducing feed components to a first feeding zone; (b) first reacting in a first reacting zone; (c) first venting in a first venting zone; and (d) cooling in a cooling zone. The process may further include, after (c) and before (d): (i) continued reacting in a continued reacting zone; and (ii) second venting in a second venting zone. The invention also provides for a process and apparatus for preparing a lubricating composition comprising: (aa) introducing a soap concentrate and a base oil to a lubricating composition feeding zone; (bb) dispersing the soap concentrate in a lubricating composition dispersing zone; (cc) mixing the soap concentrate and the base oil in a lubricating composition mixing zone; and (dd) cooling in a lubricating composition cooling zone.

Abstract: Disclosed is a soapstock treatment apparatus which can treat a soapstock produced during a plant oil production process within a short period and with a high degree of efficiency. As shown in FIG. 1, the soapstock treatment apparatus includes a reactor 20 configured to oxidatively decompose a soapstock, an electric heating coil 23 configured to heat water in the reactor 20 at 650° C. which is not less than the critical temperature of water, a high-pressure pump 13 configured to pressurize the water in the reactor 20 at 17 Mpa which is less than the critical pressure of water, and a compressor 33 configured to pressurize the water in the reactor 20 at 17 Mpa which is less than the critical pressure of water. Also, an exhaust pipe 41 for discharging a reaction gas generated by the oxidative decomposition treatment and a waste pipe 51 for discharging a solid (inorganic) residue generated by the oxidative decomposition treatment are connected to the reactor 20.

Abstract: A method of producing aerated soap 5 comprising solidifying molten soap 4 having bubbles dispersed therein in a molding unit, wherein a storage tank 61 of the molten soap 4 has a circulating duct 62 forming a loop passing through the storage tank 62, and the circulating duct 62 or the storage tank 61 has connected thereto a feed nozzle 31 for feeding the molten soap 4, whereby the molten soap 4 is fed to the molding unit through the feed nozzle 31 while being circulated in the circulating duct 62.
Abstract: The present invention relates to microdroplets of a solution comprising a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or above, a surface tension of 30 dynes/cm or above, and a viscosity of 0.015 g/(cm)(sec). Such microdroplets are useful for the synthesis of chemical species, particularly biopolymers such as oligonucleotides and peptides, as well as arrays of chemical species. Preferably, the solvent has the formula (I):
wherein
A=O or S;
X=O, S or N (C1-C4 alkyl)
Y=O, S, N(C1-C4 alkyl) or CH2; and
R=C1-C20 straight or branched chain alkyl.
