  • Patent number: 8157899
    Abstract: A particulate material processing apparatus has a vessel and a processing tank. The vessel has a charging port for charging a particulate material into the vessel. The processing tank receives the particulate material charged from the charging port. The processing tank is shaped so as to narrow towards the bottom. At least the lower part of the processing tank is made of a gas-permeable material that allows the process gas for processing the particulate material to pass through. The upper part of the processing tank has lower gas permeability than the lower part of the processing tank.

  • Patent number: 8007736
    Abstract: A particulate material processing apparatus has a vessel, a processing tank, and a dispersing member. The vessel has a charging port for charging a particulate material into the vessel. The processing tank receives the particulate material charged from the charging port. The processing tank is shaped so as to narrow towards the bottom. At least the lower part of the processing tank is made of a gas-permeable material that allows the process gas for processing the particulate material to pass through. The dispersing member is disposed below the charging port. The dispersing member disperses and flattens the particulate material on the processing tank.

  • Patent number: 7566762
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing a fluoropolymer containing at least one kind of fluoroolefin, which comprises carrying out polymerization in the presence of a surfactant represented by the formula (1): (wherein R1 and R2 may be the same or different respectively, and represent an alkyl group or an alkenyl group, R3 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group or an alkenyl group, the total carbon number of R1 to R3 is 2 to 25, L? is a group represented by —SO3?, —OSO3?, —PO3?, —OPO3? or —COO?, and M+ is a monovalent cation). Thereby, polymerization can be carried out with excellent production efficiency in the presence of a small amount of a surfactant, and a fluoropolymer can be prepared without lowering various physical properties such as water resistance by the surfactant.

  • Patent number: 4860523
    Abstract: The hermetic packaging apparatus comprises a nozzle for reducing pressure in a thermoplastic packaging bag containing certain contents, the nozzle reduces pressure in the packaging bag by the pressure control of the air pump and the water sucked from the contents is directed to a strainer tank. Thereafter, the nozzle moves backward, the opening of the packaging bag is heated by a heating element, and an airtight pressure connecting bar is pressured downward so that the opening portion is heat-sealed by the airtight pressure connecting bar and the sealing base.
