Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the continuous extraction of lactic acid from an aqueous suspension containing solids. According to said method, the aqueous suspension containing solids is brought into contact, in a counter-current, with an organic solvent that is partially miscible with water, in a column provided with filling agents which have a surface consisting of hydrophobic material, in such a way as to form an aqueous phase and an organic phase, such that the organic phase is guided as a dispersed phase in a section of the column comprising filling agents.
Abstract: The invention relates to a reactor and a process for preparing chlorine from hydrogen chloride by gas-phase oxidation by means of oxygen in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst in a fluidized bed, with gas-permeable plates being located in the fluidized bed. The gas-permeable plates are connected in a thermally conductive manner to a heat exchanger located in the fluidized bed.

Abstract: The present invention provides grain, seed, feed made from the grain or seed, petfood made from the grain, and food products made from the grain. The grain may be maize grain with the following characteristics: oil burdened, elevated protein content, and low phytate levels. The combination of oil burdened, protein laden, decreased phytate characteristics in grain makes a grain that provides more calories, protein and phosphorus and other nutrients to the feeding animal. Pet foods, and animal feeds and corn food products made of the present invention will provide increased nutrition because of the increased bioavailability of the components of the grain.
