Abstract: A device (2) for regulating an air flow for a front end module (1) of a motor vehicle, comprising a closing element (4) for closing air inlets (38) of a front end module (1) of a motor vehicle, a guide element (6) for guiding the closing element (4) during an opening and a closing movement of the closing element (4), a first and a second control element (8a, 8b) for controlling an opening and a closing movement of the closing element (4), a first and a second drive element (10a, 10b) for driving an opening and a closing movement of the closing element (4), wherein the first and second control elements (8a, 8b) comprise a multi-part integrated tension and tolerance compensation mechanism (12) for compensating a variable pretension of the first and second drive elements (10a, 10b) in order to ensure a substantially constant tension of the closing element (4).

Abstract: A vehicle front module having a loading compartment cavity with a receiving area for loading objects, in particular luggage. The loading compartment cavity has an opening, a base, and a wall arranged between the opening and the base. A front reinforcement structure which extends in a transverse direction transversely to the drive direction is installed on the loading compartment cavity, preferably molded thereon, on the face of the loading compartment cavity positioned at the front in the drive direction. Furthermore, the wall additionally has at least one lateral reinforcement structure, which is connected to the wall or is molded thereon and which differs from the front reinforcement structure, at least on faces of the loading compartment cavity lying opposite one another in the transverse direction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (2) for controlling and guiding a closure element (4) for closing a motor vehicle cooling module, comprising a first control element (10a) for controlling an opening and a closing movement of the closure element (4), a second control element (10b) for controlling an opening and a closing movement of the closure element (4), a guide element (8), which is arranged directly between the first and the second control element (10a, 10b), for guiding the closure element (4) during an opening and a closing movement, wherein the device (2) is formed in multiple parts and is assembled from parts produced separately from one another.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon aromatization process comprising adding a nitrogenate, an oxygenate, or both to a hydrocarbon stream to produce an enhanced hydrocarbon stream, and contacting the enhanced hydrocarbon stream with an aromatization catalyst, thereby producing an aromatization reactor effluent comprising aromatic hydrocarbons, wherein the catalyst comprises a non-acidic zeolite support, a group VIII metal, and one or more halides. Also disclosed is a hydrocarbon aromatization process comprising monitoring the presence of an oxygenate, a nitrogenate, or both in an aromatization reactor, monitoring at least one process parameter that indicates the activity of the aromatization catalyst, modifying the amount of the oxygenate, the nitrogenate, or both in the aromatization reactor, thereby affecting the parameter.

Abstract: A method of treating a substrate by applying a layer of at least one metal to the substrate to form an applied metal layer on the substrate and followed by curing of the applied metal layer at sub-atmospheric pressure to form a metal protective layer. A method of treating a substrate by applying a layer of at least one metal to a substrate of an unassembled component of a reactor system to form an applied metal layer on the substrate of the unassembled component and curing the applied metal layer on the substrate of the unassembled component to form a metal protective layer. A method of treating a substrate by applying a layer of at least one metal to the substrate to form an applied metal layer, curing the applied metal layer at a first temperature and pressure for a first period of time, and curing the applied metal layer at a second temperature and pressure for a second period of time, wherein the curing forms a metal protective layer.
