Abstract: A CO2 recovery apparatus capable of recovering CO2 by using only a low-quality exhaust heat at 100° C. or less is provided. The present invention includes an absorption tower for allowing a basic aqueous solution to absorb CO2; and a regenerator for heating a basic aqueous solution with CO2 absorbed therein using a heating medium having a temperature of 100° C. or less, thereby desorbing CO2.

Abstract: It is disclosed that a metal cored board which comprises an electrically conductive layer whose one surface at least composed of a hardly oxidizable metal, an insulating organic polymer layer baked on the surface of the hardly oxidizable metal, and a metal core adhered on the insulating organic polymer layer, and a method for manufacturing a metal cored board, which comprises a step to coat the surface of a hardly oxidizable metal layer of an electrically conductive metal foil with an insulating varnish, a step to bake a layer of the varnish, and a step to adhere a metal core on the baked varnish layer.

Abstract: It is disclosed that a metal cored board which comprises a base metal core, an easily solderable metal plating layer formed on one surface of the base metal core, an electrically insulating layer formed on the another surface of the base metal core, and an electrically conductive metal layer formed on the electrically insulating layer, a method for manufacturing a metal cored board, which comprises a step to plate both surface of a base metal core with an easily solderable metal, a step to form an electrically insulating layer on one surface of the easily solderable metal plating layer, and a step to form an electrically conductive metal layer on the electrically insulating layer.

Abstract: A method for biologically purifiying waste water which produces substantially no excess waste sludge is provided. In this method, a waste water containing biodegradable substances is treated in a biological fixed film type reactor and aqueous water sludge discharged from the reactor is aerobically digested after being separated from the biologically treated waste water. The digested aqueous sludge is returned to the reactor or the upstream thereof. This method can be advantageously combined with any installed activated sludge type water purification process, to thereby substantially eliminate the production of excess waste sludge from the water purification system.
