Abstract: A method can be used for fire-resistant sealing of an opening in a wall or ceiling, through which a line is passed. The method involves cutting a strip-shaped fire protection bandage to a length corresponding to a circumference of the line, with or without an overlap. The fire protection bandage contains fire-retardant and/or intumescent material. The method then involves placing the cut-to-length fire protection bandage around the line, to form a layer which only partially protrudes outward from the opening. The method further involves annularly applying a putty to part of the fire protection bandage protruding from the opening, to form a putty ring of a slightly larger outer diameter than the opening diameter, such that the putty ring closes the opening and extends slightly beyond the edge. The method finally involves pressing the putty ring against the fire protection bandage and the opening edge, to seal the line feedthrough.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrolytic reactor, in particular for separating phosphate from phosphate-containing liquids and/or recovering phosphate salts, comprising an inlet (16) for an electrolysis liquid and a flow channel (20) adjoining same, a magnesium metering unit (12) comprising two electrodes (22, 24) of different polarity being arranged in the flow channel (20), at least one of the two electrodes (22, 24) being a sacrificial electrode (20), wherein the magnesium metering unit (12) is designed as a free-level reactor and a mixing/sedimentation unit (14) being connected downstream of the magnesium metering unit (12) in the direction of flow, said mixing/sedimentation unit having a feed inlet (40) for the phosphate-containing liquids and an outlet (26) for the purified liquid for the obtained phosphate product.

Abstract: A reclosable package comprises a first panel having first and second side sections and a second panel having first and second side sections. The first panel opposes the second panel and is joined to the second panel along the first and second side sections. A bottom extends between the first and second side sections of the first and second panels with the first and second panels joined to each other. A mouth is disposed opposite the bottom and extends between the first and second side sections of the first second panels. A closure member extends along the mouth, with the closure member including a first fin joined to the first panel and second fin joined to the second panel. A sealing member having a first and second ends is disposed proximate the mouth. The ends of the sealing member can be attached to the fin or panel such that at least one of the first end or second ends of the sealing member is attached with peelable seal.

Abstract: A device and a method are provided for regulating and controlling individual gas pressure of individual ovens of a coke oven battery, in the case of which a rising-pipe bend projects, preferably from above, into a collecting main. The lower end thereof is associated with an immersion pipe via a water labyrinth seal. The immersion pipe is supported such that it is vertically adjustable by means of an actuator, and an immersion cup is located preferably below the immersion pipe. The rising-pipe bend has arranged therein a sleeve, the lower end of which is connected via at least one conduit to the water labyrinth seal. A water supply for feeding the water labyrinth seal and the actuator are provided at the top, outside the rising-pipe bend. Regulation of the gas pressure is accomplished by different immersion depths of the immersion pipe and the constant water level in the immersion cup.

Abstract: A method of forming a reclosable fastener track having a slider. The process provides a reclosable fastener track, forms a slit in the fastener track, attaches a slider to the fastener track, seals the slit in the fastener track after the slider attaches, and creates a first and a second end stop on the track.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for processing multiple related financial transactions in a computer-based financial accounting system. A user interface is provided to receive the information corresponding to the multiple related financial transactions. If desired, any of a common transaction type, date and amount can be specified. The user can select information for the related financial transactions from a list or from a set of business rules, and can then apply the information. This causes a separate transaction to be automatically generated and optionally stored for each party. Sales tax transactions can be automatically determined for each of the multiple related financial transactions. Once the multiple related financial transactions have been generated and stored, they can be displayed in a check register format that can allow editing the transactions. Some or all of the multiple related financial transactions can be assigned to a group so that subsequent operations can be expedited.

Abstract: A heat exchanger, with a core region having a plurality of tube bundles through which a fluid flows in series is provided with at least one specially designed header composed of two half shells. The specially designed header deflects the fluid stream between two successive tube bundles in opposite directions, with the supply and discharge of the fluid to and from the core region through the header. The resulting heat exchanger is structurally simple, having a minimum number of components to be mounted.

Abstract: In a process for the preparation of crystalline N-methylol(meth)acrylamide from (meth)acryamide and paraformaldehyde, the reaction of the solid reactants to give a product melt and the subsequent crystallization thereof in a reactor while subjecting the reaction mixture to mechanical shear load is preferably carried out in a self-purging screw reactor or a disk reactor. The reaction of the reactants and the crystallization of the product melt are preferably carried out without added solvent. A catalyst, in particular an alkali metal carbonate or a trialkylamine, can be used for the reaction of the reactants.
