  • Patent number: 10011948
    Abstract: A process for recausticizing green liquor in a sulphate or Kraft process for wood pulp production, in which a green liquor consisting of an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate as the major component and sodium sulphide is admixed with calcium oxide in a slaker and undergoes a reaction in a recausticizer to form an aqueous suspension containing sodium hydroxide and calcium carbonate as the major components, which suspension is filtered on a first filter and subsequently, after dilution with water in a dilution vessel, is fed over further filters two or three times and filtered to separate solids suspended therein, characterized in that after a first separation of calcium carbonate as the major component and calcium oxide as the minor component, carbon dioxide is added to the aqueous suspension at least during dilution in a dilution vessel and in particular in the dilution vessel (s) upstream of a second and/or a third filter.

  • Patent number: 5594299
    Abstract: A dispenser cathode including a dispenser body formed of a metal matrix and an emission surface formed of emission material impregnated into the dispenser body metal matrix. The metal matrix is a porous sintered metal matrix containing at least one metal frown a first group (W, Mo, Cr) and at least one metal of a second group (Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Rh, Pd, Re, Os, Ir, Pt) and chromium oxide. The chromium oxide and the metals from the two groups are provided as a powder mixture to form the matrix. The emission material includes at least two alkaline earth metal oxides such as CaO, BaO and at least one oxide of a metal of group IIIa or IIIb of the Periodic Table. The oxide of a metal group is Al.sub.2 O.sub.3.

  • Patent number: 5318468
    Abstract: A dispenser cathode with multilayer sintered body is suggested, wherein the layers have a thickness of between 0.01 and 10 mm and have different compositions.

  • Patent number: 4767372
    Abstract: To improve the homogeneity of the porosity of a concave-convex pressed part with minimized mass, a pre-compressed pressed part with plane frontal surfaces is produced in a first process step. This part is then further compressed to produce a concave-convex sintered pressed part in a further process step. The pressed part can, however, also be produced in only one process step, if the requirements for homogeneous porosity distribution are less.
