Abstract: What is presented is an innovative design of a chemical reactor for catalytic breakdown of halogenated hydrocarbons, the body of which acts as a specialized electromagnet capable of immobilizing and retaining very large quantities of non-magnetized ferro- dia- or para-magnetic material-containing nano, micro-, or milli-particles within it's reactor volume despite high-velocity flow of any liquid through said reactor. This is accomplished without any pre-treatment to the nanoparticles, without the use of adhesive of any sort, electroplating, electrolytic action, nano-structured nanocages, membrane or other impregnation, or any other mechanical or chemical means.

Abstract: A power chuck includes a body, a plurality of work engaging jaws, a plurality of rocker arms carrying the jaws, and plurality of swivel mountings connecting the rocker arms to the body. The power chuck also includes a plurality of slide members connected to and matingly engaging the rocker arms and reciprocable actuator disposed centrally of the rocker arms and operatively cooperating with the elide members. Reciprocatory movement of the actuator along the slide members rocks the rocker arms in the swivel mountings and moves the jaws radially relative to each other.
