Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for inhibiting sebum secretion comprising a FABP4 inhibitor, more specifically, relates to a composition for inhibiting sebum secretion capable of regulating sebum secretion by reducing lipid synthesis in sebocytes, inhibiting lipid synthesis-related signal transduction systems, and reducing the expression of lipid synthesis-related electronic factors. Also, the composition of the present invention can be used for preventing, treating or improving acne or seborrheic dermatitis.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for treating process water which is loaded with gaseous compounds and/or possibly with solids and comes from a wet-cleaning installation for cleaning process gas, e.g., from a melt-reduction subassembly or from a direct-reduction subassembly. Process water is introduced in a tank in a first process stage and degassed on the basis of reduced solubility of the dissolved compounds. The tank has, on its upper side, a gas-collecting chamber, in which the separated-off gases are collected and from which these are discharged. Likewise, the treated process water is discharged from the tank via a drainage means.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for manufacturing compacted irons of the reduced materials containing fine reduce irons and an apparatus for manufacturing molten irons provided with the same. The apparatus for manufacturing compacted irons according to the present invention includes a couple of rollers for compacting reduced materials containing fine reduced irons and manufacturing compacted irons, a guide chute for guiding compacted irons which are discharged from the couple of rollers; and crushers for crushing compacted irons which are guided into the guide chute. A guiding surface of the guide chute, which guides the compacted irons, includes a straight slanted surface and a curved slanted surface.
