Abstract: A moveable vehicle such as a truck, railway carriage, or the like is structured and dimensioned to enable the transportation of products including live aquatic species such as fish in a refrigerated condition. The vehicle includes insulating and heat exchange layers which when utilized to transport live aquatic species may maintain them in a dormant state by temperature controls within the refrigeration system. A water spraying assembly provides a humidity and oxygen level for disposing of waste and also enables the spraying of fog to provide effective humidity between spraying cycles. Any existing animal waste is treated in the water and a recirculation or closed loop system is provided. A product storage area facilitates loading and unloading and a separate storage room may be provided to house the systems equipment or optionally may be attached to the vehicle.

Abstract: Provided in this disclosure are organometallic complexes that contain i) a metal atom selected from Hf and Zr; 2) a phosphinimine ligand; 3) an amido-ether ligand and at least one other ancillary ligand. The use of such a complex, in combination with an activator, as an olefin polymerization catalyst is demonstrated. The catalysts are effective for the copolymerization of ethylene with an alpha olefin (such as 1-butene, 1-hexene, or 1-octene) and enable the production of high molecular weight copolymers (Mw greater than 25,000) with good comonomer incorporation at high productivity.

Abstract: An illumination device for a vehicle includes a reflector having a rear-side lamp opening and a protective collar formed around the lamp opening. The protective collar has an inner diameter and has a cut-out of a peripheral segment. A lamp has a lamp axis and is configured to be received in the lamp opening by an introduction movement in a direction of the lamp axis and a rotary movement about the lamp axis. The rotary movement of the lamp about the lamp axis defines a rotational space of the lamp. An electrical contact plug element is configured to connect to the lamp. The inner diameter is slightly larger than the rotational space defined by the lamp. The cut-out of the protective collar is configured to receive the plug element such that the plug element is disposed through the cutout peripheral segment when connected to the lamp.

Abstract: In some embodiments, this disclosure provides a process for the stabilization of thermoplastic polyolefins during melt processing operations. In some embodiments, the stabilizer package disclosed herein is “phenol free” and contains at least one solid aryl monophosphite and a specific liquid phosphite. The processes disclosed herein are suitable for the manufacture of polyethylene film.

Abstract: A headlight for vehicles, in particular trucks, comprising a lighting unit which is pivotably mounted about a pivot axis; a linear drive unit which contains a linearly movable actuator; and a pivoting lever which is coupled to a lighting unit at a first end and to the actuator at a second end, wherein the lighting unit is pivotable by means of the actuator. The pivoting lever is designed in multiple parts, comprising a lower pivoting lever element having a support part for supporting on the actuator and an upper pivoting lever element on which a horizontal axis is arranged, the pivoting lever being pivotably mounted about said axis.

Abstract: A continuous solution polymerization process is disclosed wherein at least two homogeneous catalyst formulations are employed. A first homogeneous catalyst formulation is employed in a first reactor to produce a first ethylene interpolymer and a second homogeneous catalyst formulation is employed in a second reactor to produce a second ethylene interpolymer. Optionally a third ethylene interpolymer is formed in a third reactor. The resulting ethylene interpolymer products possess desirable properties in a variety of end use applications, for example in film applications. A means for increasing the molecular weight of the first ethylene interpolymer is disclosed and/or a means for increasing the temperature of the first reactor, relative to the third homogeneous catalyst formulation. A means for reducing the (?-olefin/ethylene) weight ratio in the first reactor is disclosed and/or reducing the density of the first ethylene interpolymer, relative to the third homogeneous catalyst formulation.

Abstract: The present disclosure seeks to provide a method to design a metallic burner component for use in industrial processes such as cracking, reforming and steam generation for which the burner component is exposed to high furnace temperatures. The burner component comprises a series of cooling channels and internal baffling to direct the flow of one or more fuel and oxidant over the portions of the burner exposed to the high furnace temperatures. The present disclosure also provides the resulting burner.

Abstract: Crackers for hydrocarbon such as naphtha and C2-C4 paraffins contain a radiant section and a convection section. The exhaust gases leaving the radiant section pass through the convection. Generally fouling from the convection section was low relative to fouling (e.g., coke build up) in the radiant section. With improved metallurgy and operating conditions, the time between decokes of the radiant section has increased and now there is a need to reduce fouling from the convection section. This may be achieved by using stainless steel, and particularly high nickel, high chrome stainless steel in the passes in the convection section.
