Abstract: The method is for treating a liquid or slurry with an ultrasonic energy. A movable endless member is provided that is permeable to a liquid. A transverse foil is disposed below the member and extends across the member and a transducer is in operative engagement with the foil. The member is moved about rollers. The transducer generates pressure pulses into the foil to form implosion bubbles in the liquid disposed above the member. The implosion bubbles have a first diameter (d1). A gap is formed between the member and the foil. The gap represents a distance (d2) that is less than the diameter (d1) of the bubbles to prevent any bubbles of critical size to be captured in the gap.

Abstract: The method is for testing an electrical component. The sender unit 12 may be applied to an electrical plug 24 that has a first line 28, a second line 32 and a ground line 36. It is determined which of the lines 28, 32, 36 that has a voltage potential relative to the surrounding. The phase configuration of the electrical plug 24 may be determined. The unit 14 is applied to a remote electrical unit and the sender sends a synchronization signal 41 to the receiver unit 14 that starts a counter providing a measurement of the time difference between corresponding phase positions of the alternating current of the plug 24 and that of the remote electrical unit. This time difference can then be converted to a phase difference value. The system may also be used to identify a specific fuse that is associated with the plug and for testing ground fault interrupting devices.

Abstract: Method for enabling the paper pulp production process to be controlled in such a way that the hexenuronic acid content in the pulp can be minimized and the color reversion of the pulp and/or the pulp products thereby minimized. The method is based on measurements of the optical properties of a fiber containing substance or process stream in the wavelength region 232±5 nm and another wavelength interval. A significant value for the current hexenuronic acid content is formed by correcting the intensity in the spectrum around 232 nm by the corresponding optical quantity at the other wavelength interval. The content of the hexenuronic acid content that is determined by the analysis is then used for controlling conditions in the process stage.

Abstract: The system is for the oxygen delignification, in at least two reaction stages, of pulp that consists of lignocellulose-containing material having a mean concentration of 8%-18% pulp consistency. The oxygen delignification takes place in a first reaction stage that has a substantially constant low pressure during the whole delignification process. The second delignification stage has a substantially higher pressure and temperature and a longer dwell time. Readily delignifiable constituents in the pulp may react without the pulp being negatively affected so that the delignification process provides a very high degree of selectivity and an improved yield.

Abstract: The apparatus and method for processing worms uses spaced top and bottom surfaces of a rotor set a sufficient distance apart so that worm bodies to be processed touch both surfaces. A splitter is located mid-way between the surfaces and the worm bodies are forced by centrifugal force and by a flow of water in which the bodies are entrained to encounter and to be split by the splitter blade. The top and bottom surfaces are set a sufficient distance apart so that the worm bodies are partially flattened when passing therebetween. The splitter is located so as to be operative to split the central digestive tract of the worm body. An inlet is located in the top surface through which the worm bodies are introduced into the space between the top and bottom surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the determination of stand attributes with an instrument above the stand. In the method, three-dimensional information is collected from the stands by using such a number of sample hits, that individual trees or groups of trees can be distinguished. A three-dimensional tree height model is produced from collected information. Stand attributes—which are characteristics of individual trees or groups of trees and/or characteristics derived using these information for larger areas—are determined from the tree height model. The invention also relates to a computer program which can be used to carry out the second and third step of the method.

Abstract: The pipe system is for receiving and transporting lime sludge from a filter medium in a continuously operating pressurized filter 1 in a causticizing process, where lime sludge is scraped off from the filter medium 2 and falls down into receiving chutes 4a for the lime sludge. Conventional storage tanks for scraped-off lime sludge and their mechanical agitators are thus replaced by a pipe system 11 where the pipe system does not have a mechanical agitator at all but has a flow cross section which maintains a flow rate in the lime sludge so that sedimentation of the lime sludge does not take place from the receiving chute 4a to the feed-out opening 30 of the pipe system.
