Abstract: A coolant nozzle (1) for cooling a metal strand in a continuous casting installation has a mouthpiece (5), which is arranged at a nozzle outlet end (4) and through which liquid coolant (6) can emerge from the coolant nozzle (1). To allow a rapid buildup of pressure at the coolant nozzle (1), it provides a feed (8), which is formed as a tube-in-tube system (9) arranged upstream of the mouthpiece (5) in the direction of through-flow (7) and has a feed outlet end (10), through the first tube (11) in which control air (13) can be brought up to the feed outlet end (10) and through the second tube (12) of which the liquid coolant (6) can be fed to the mouthpiece (5) by way of the feed outlet end (10), and also provides a control valve (14), which is integrated in the feed (8), is arranged at the feed outlet end (10), can be actuated pneumatically by using the control air (13) and is intended for controlling the feed of the liquid coolant (6) into the mouthpiece (5).

Abstract: A system and method for producing clarified citrus juice concentrates from various natural components of the respective fruit. Citrus peels and/or flesh segments are enzymatically digested to improve yield and facilitate clarification and concentration. The resulting juice concentrates contain no additives or preservatives. Said concentrates have no FDA Standards of Identity, and can be used in percentage juice calculations.

Abstract: The novel process for preparing dialkyl dicarbonates by reacting the corresponding alkyl haloformates with alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides and/or carbonates in the presence of water-immiscible organic solvents and in the presence of a catalyst is characterized in that the catalyst used is at least one tertiary alkylamine of the formula (I) NR1R2R3,??(I) where the substituents are each as defined in the description.

Abstract: Polyhalogenated cinnamic acids and cinnamic acid derivatives are prepared by reacting diazonium salts accessible from polyhalogenated anilines with acrylic acid or acrylic acid derivatives in the presence of a homogeneous, palladium-containing catalyst at about ?5 to about +100° C. Some of the cinnamic acids and cinnamic acid derivatives obtainable in this way are new. Cinnamic acids and cinnamic acid derivatives which can be prepared according to the invention can be used for the preparation of indanones which are precursors for agro- and pharmaceutical chemicals and for substances having liquid-crystalline properties.
