Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for feeding a polymerization catalyst into a polymerization reactor, said process comprising the steps of: (i) forming a catalyst slurry comprising oil and a solid catalyst component in a first catalyst preparation vessel; (ii) transferring the catalyst slurry from the first catalyst preparation vessel to a first catalyst feed vessel; (iii) maintaining the catalyst slurry in the first catalyst feed vessel in a homogeneous state; (iv) withdrawing a portion of the catalyst slurry from the first catalyst feed vessel, preferably continuously withdrawing the catalyst slurry from the first catalyst feed vessel, and introducing the withdrawn portion of the catalyst slurry into a polymerization reactor; wherein the oil has a dynamic viscosity of from 25 to 1500 mPa*s at the conditions within the first catalyst preparation vessel and the first catalyst feed vessel, wherein the catalyst slurry is transferred along a substantially vertical path downwards from the first catalyst

Abstract: Combustion engine (M), especially an Otto engine or diesel engine for land and water vehicles, has an exhaust system with an exhaust catalyst (20), integrated in the exhaust pipe (L), and a catalyst cooling device (26) fed with a fluid or pasty coolant (14), preferably water, glycerin or a gel. Also claimed is a silencer, especially for the above combustion engine, having a silencer cooling device fed with a fluid or pasty coolant. Preferably, the cooling device (26) forms a housing (G) for the catalyst (20) or silencer, respectively.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for, in a hydrostatic transmission having a preferably variable displacement hydraulic pump (P) feeding a number of hydraulic motors (M1, M2, M3, M4) provided in association with respective drive wheels, drive tracks or corresponding drive apparatus, mutually balancing the flow of hydraulic fluid through the different hydraulic motors (M1-M4) by individually controlling of the flow from and/or to the same, whereby the individual flows of hydraulic fluid through the respective hydraulic motors (M1-M4) are detected and compared across respective restrictions (14, 15) being variable dependent on the total flow but being of mutually equal size and whereby, for optimum control or balancing, the detected differences in flow through the different hydraulic motors are in themselves used directly for the balancing.
