Abstract: A mineral wool panel, intended to be used as an acoustic panel, has a surface density of greater than or equal to 3.2 kg/m2, an air flow resistivity of between 30 and 120 kPa·s/m2, and a Young's modulus of between 0.5 and 4 MPa.

Abstract: A system for recycling planar objects including compressed mineral fiber material includes: a conveyor arranged to covey the planar objects through a number of stations at least including a thickness measurement station and a sound measurement station. The sound measurement station includes a sound reflecting surface arranged to back a first major surface of a planar object, a sound emitter arranged to emit sound towards the sound reflecting surface, a sound receiver arranged to receive sound reflected from the sound reflecting surface, and a converter arranged to determine a property related to sound absorption. A sorting station is arranged to sort the planar objects based on determined properties in to a plurality of fractions.

Abstract: A blood pump, particularly intended as an extracorporeal blood pump, comprises a pump cylinder and two discs spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the cylinder and substantially filling the cross-sectional area of the cylinder. The discs are reciprocatingly movable in accordance with a preferably variable movement pattern. Each of the discs is provided with a non-return valve means permitting fluid flow through the disc substantially solely in the desired direction of fluid transportation. The discs may be movable relative to the stationary pump cylinder surrounding the discs, or they may be firmly connected with the surrounding cylinder wall, which therewith accompanies the discs in their movements, the cylinder section between the discs having in this case a length which varies in response to the variation of the distance between the discs, and a correspondingly variable volume.

Abstract: An apparatus for exchanging ions, molecules, gas, liquid, and/or heat between a first fluid and at least one second fluid, particularly when treating blood, includes a rigid vessel (1) having a substantially circular cylindrical center part (1a) and end parts (1b, 1c) connected thereto. Respective end parts inlet (2) at one end of the vessel and to an axially directed first-fluid tubular outlet (3) at the opposite end of the vessel. At least one bundle (4a-d) of hollow fibers is arranged within the vessel (1) and the opposite ends of the bundles are passed sealingly through the wall (5) if the vessel and opened into a respective inlet chamber (6a-d) and outlet chamber (7a-d) for a second fluid outside the vessel wall (5). The bundle is spread substantially uniformly across the flow path of the first fluid through the vessel from the tubular inlet (2) to the tubular outlet (3).
