Abstract: The invention relates to a method for flexibly controlling the use of hydrochloric acid having an HCl concentration of at least 10 wt %, in particular at a volume flow rate of at least 1 m3/h, obtained from a continuous chemical production process (A). In the method, purified hydrochloric acid (54) from a hydrochloric acid store (E) is optionally fed to a dispatch station (H), an HCl electrolysis station (F) and a chloralkali electrolysis station (L), which are consumption points for the hydrochloric acid, or to a neutralisation station (G) in that if one or more of said consumption points (H, F, L) is not available or if there are bottlenecks at the consumption points (H, F, L), the hydrochloric acid (54) is fed to the neutralisation station (G) and neutralised with concentrated alkali solution (55), in particular with concentrated sodium hydroxide solution, and the resulting salt solution (56) is fed either to the chloralkali process station (L) or to a disposal station (M).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for milking milk residues to achieve the extraction of as much of the milk as possible that is preset in the udder. According to the method, a rubber teat element (10) in a teat cup (1) is displaced in a milking motion by a negative suction pressure caused by adjustable pulse phases consisting of alternating suction and pause phases and of a pulse intensity, in order to a volumetric flow of milk. Said volumetric flow is continuously recorded and if it decreases, the motion of the rubber teat element is modified in a targeted manner.
