Abstract: A process for making a spunmelt nonwoven web including the steps of providing a mixture of recycled polypropylene, extruding the recycled polypropylene mixture to form a molten recycled polypropylene mixture, filtering the molten recycled polypropylene mixture through a filter to form recycled polypropylene filtrate, dosing the recycled polypropylene filtrate into the spunmelt production line by an amount of 80% to 100% by weight, passing the recycled polypropylene filtrate through at least one spinneret of the spunmelt production line to form filaments at a spinning speed of greater than 1200 meters per minute, cooling and drawing the filaments, and depositing the filaments on a moving belt to form at least one layer of the spunmelt nonwoven web made up of 80% by 100% by weight of recycled polypropylene fibers.

Abstract: Multiple electrical path assembly as in a telephone grid, is rapidly and accurately checked by grounding one end of all but one of the path conductors, applying a test signal to that one end, detecting the presence or absence of signal on both ends of all conductors, and repeating the procedure for all the conductors, as with a computer containing a microprocessor. Where the conductors are individually switched, they can all be switched on beforehand. Detectors can also be connected to the conductors during the testing, to detect unusually high voltages, and testing can be interrupted when such voltages are detected. Switch actuation can be separately tested by detecting the passage of current that is used to actuate them.
