Abstract: A separation disc for a centrifugal separator is adapted to be included in a stack of separation discs inside a centrifugal rotor for separating a fluid mixture. The separation disc has a truncated conical shape with an inner surface and an outer surface and a plurality of spacing members extending from at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface. The spot-formed spacing members are for providing interspaces between mutually adjacent separation discs in a stack of separation discs. The separation disc further includes at least one elongated rib extending from the inner surface to a height (h) that is less than the height (H) to which the plurality of spacing members extend. Further, at least one elongated rib extends from first position on the inner surface to a second position on the inner surface.

A separation disc for a centrifugal separator is made of a metal material and adapted to be compressed in a stack of separation discs inside a centrifugal rotor for separating a liquid or liquid/solid mixture.

Abstract: A separation disc for a centrifugal separator and a method for manufacturing the separation disc are disclosed. The separation disc is of metal material and adapted to be compressed in a stack of separation discs inside a centrifugal rotor for separating a liquid mixture. The separation disc has a truncated conical shape with an inner surface and an outer surface and a plurality of spacing members extending a certain height above at least one of the inner surface and the outer surface for providing interspaces between mutually adjacent separation discs in the stack. The spacing members are of such small size that each one of them has a width which is less than 2 mm along the surface of the separation disc. The surface of the separation disc is configured with a distribution pattern of the small-sized spacing members, in such a way as to provide equidistant interspaces in the compressed disc stack.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue comprising: (i) one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative, and (ii) means for chemical treatment of carious dentin tissue. Further, the invention concerns a preparation containing an active, caries-dissolving two-component liquid in the form of a first active, caries-dissolving component and a second component which reduces the aggressiveness of the active component to mucous membranes, a viscosity increasing substance and one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative. The hydrazine derivative labels carious dentin tissue selectively and substantially irreversibly in the presence of healthy dentin tissue, which is useful in the context of caries removal.

Abstract: A new gas discharge tube with end electrodes having chemically inert surfaces is disclosed. As the surfaces are resistant to the build-up of layers, such as oxide layers, a discharge tube according to the invention exhibits higher selectivity and better performance (e.g. higher heat-resistance and longer life-cycle time) than prior art devices, simultaneously as it offers an environmentally acceptable solution.

The sealing elements form between themselves a narrow gap (14) surrounding the shaft (2), which prevents the flow of gas between the departments (15, 16).
