Abstract: A process for purifying high-temperature reducing gases containing sulfureous contaminants including hydrogen sulfide and carbonyl sulfide with an absorbent, said process characterized in that at least three reactor towers which are filled with an absorbent are used, and said process comprises the three steps of absorption, regeneration, and reduction, and during in a part of operation two reactor towers are connected in series so as to carry out regeneration, and O.sub.2 concentration can be controlled separately for each regenerating reactor tower in the regeneration step, and steam can be supplied so as to prevent excessive reduction of the absorbent from occurring in the reduction step. The life of the absorbent can be extended and operational costs may be reduced.

Abstract: The known keyless printing press including an ink feeder section consisting of an ink source roller, a transfer roller, a doctor roller, an anti-hysteresis doctor disposed on the circumferential surface of the doctor roller and the like, and also provided with a wetting device for a plate drum, is improved in order to realize a fresh condition of the ink source roller which is free from residual ink before printing ink having a uniform moisture content is applied thereto. The improvements reside in that a refresh doctor is disposed on the ink source roller at a position downstream of the nip between the ink source roller and the transfer roller for scraping residual ink from the circumferential surface of the ink source roller.

Abstract: A keyless printing press includes a delivery nozzle disposed in opposition to an ink source roller and provided with a plurality of delivery ports aligned in parallel along the axial direction of the ink source roller. Printing ink circulating through an ink circulation system is delivered and fed through the respective delivery ports of the delivery nozzle to the ink source roller. The arrangement is improved to obviate the shortcoming that isolated water may repeatedly circulate through the ink circulation system and accumulate, resulting in lowering of printing depth. At least one ink outflow port, for ensuring that printing ink having a high moisture content proportion will flow out of the delivery nozzle, is provided in the delivery nozzle at a position at a level higher than any of the delivery ports.
