Abstract: A method and apparatus for size reduction of a material. The method includes the steps of: feeding material through a feed assembly into a cyclone chamber, the cyclone chamber having an elongate cylindrical conduit having a frusto-conical section; adding at least one viscosity modifying agent into the cyclone chamber; and providing a cyclonic fluid stream within the cyclone chamber. The apparatus includes: a cyclone chamber having an elongate cylindrical conduit having a frusto-conical section; a device for creating a cyclonic fluid stream within the cyclone chamber, such that the frusto-conical section of the cyclone chamber terminates in an opening forming the inlet to the device; an air inlet tube in fluid connection with the cyclone chamber at the opposite end of the frusto-conical section; and a feed assembly for feeding material into the cyclone chamber.

Abstract: Accessible role and state information may be included in hypertext markup language documents by encoding an accessibility definition into a class attribute. The accessibility definition corresponds with an object of a hypertext markup language document and comprises role information and state information if state information is applicable to the corresponding role information. A script is associated with the hypertext markup language document and is configured for parsing at least a portion of the hypertext markup language document to identify the accessibility definition. The script further maps the role information and the state information in the accessibility definition to corresponding namespaced role and state attributes.
