Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for determining an optimum dialysate flow Qdopt for an extracorporeal blood treatment and to a blood treatment device comprising a device 18 for determining an optimum dialysate flow Qdopt. The optimum dialysate flow Qdopt is determined on the basis of a relationship describing the dependence of the clearance K on the dialysate flow Qd. The device according to the invention comprises a measurement device 18B for measuring at least one value which is characteristic of the clearance K, a calculation and/or evaluation unit 18A of the device according to the invention being configured in such a way that the clearance K is determined on the basis of the at least one value which is characteristic of the clearance.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tool for crushing coke in drums with of high-pressure water jets, which has a housing 2 with a feed system 4 for high-pressure water, and a housing wall 3 with outwardly directed boring and cutting nozzles 5a, 5b, out of the openings 7 of which high-pressure water jets 28 exit, as well as flow channels 4g, 4h, which connect the feed system 4 with the boring and cutting nozzles 5a, 5b. So that the opening of the boring and cutting nozzles is permanently protected and kept free of deposits of coke or the like, the opening of the boring or cutting nozzle is respectively closable by a one- or multi-part flap, which is adjustable between a closed position and an open position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tool for crushing coke, and includes a housing 2 that, in an operating state, is fastened to a drill rod, and in which is arranged at least one cutting nozzle 10 for cutting and a drilling nozzle 9 for drilling coke by means of a water jet, and a control for supplying water flowing through the housing 2 under pressure for drilling or cutting, wherein the control for switching the tool 1 from a drilling mode to a cutting mode and vice versa includes a control device 7 that is rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the housing 2 to switch the tool 1, wherein the drilling or cutting mode is set depending on the angular position of the control device 7. To obtain a clear understanding of whether the tool 1 is in drilling or cutting mode, at least one position element 38, 39 is arranged on the control device 7 that displays the angular position of the control device 7 in the drilling and/or cutting mode of the tool 1 through a window 18 in the housing 2.
