Abstract: A stirring device for stirring a particulate material and a grinding media in a grinding mill includes one or more protective elements that extend outwardly from a body to deflect the particulate material and the grinding media from the body to minimize contact of the mixture of the particulate material and the grinding media against the body and to promote contact between the particulate material and the grinding media.

Abstract: A stirred bead grinding mill includes a substantially cylindrical grinding shell and a central stirring shaft within the grinding shell. The central stirring shaft is provided with axially spaced stirring elements, preferably grinding discs, along the central stirring shaft. A replaceable grinding element is provided that includes an axial support structure arranged to form the outer periphery of the grinding element adapted to fit within the grinding shell, and at least one counter disc arranged to project radially inward from the axial support structure to an extent separating two grinding zones in an axial direction while allowing the central stirring shaft within the grinding shell, wherein at least part of the counter disc and/or the support structure is provided with castellations.

Abstract: The invention relates to a catalyst system for the polymerization of olefins comprising a metal complex of formula CyLMD and an activating cocatalyst, wherein M is titanium, Cy is a cyclopentadienyl-type ligand, D is a diene, L is an amidinate-containing ligand of formula (1), wherein the amidinate-containing ligand is covalently bonded to the titanium via the imine nitrogen atom, Sub1 is a substituent, which comprises a group 14 atom through which Sub1 is bonded to the imine carbon atom, Sub2 is a substituent, which comprises a nitrogen atom, through which Sub2 is bonded to the imine carbon atom, and Cy is a mono- or polysubstituted cyclopentadienyl-type ligand, wherein the one or more substituents of Cy are selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydrocarbyl, silyl and germyl residues, optionally substituted with one or more halogen, amido, phosphido, alkoxy, or aryloxy residues.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus (1) for deaerating a feed fluid, the apparatus comprising a chamber (3) for separating said feed fluid into a first component (11) substantially comprising froth or gas and a second component (12) substantially comprising deaerated liquid or sludge; an opening (6) for fluid flow from said separating chamber (2), and a device (7) for restricting fluid flow through said opening, wherein said opening (6) and said flow restricting device (7) induce a rotational flow of said feed fluid in said separating chamber such that said rotational flow generates a centrifugal vortex to separate said feed fluid into said first component (11) and said second component (12). A method of for deaerating a feed fluid is also provided.
