  • Publication number: 20120224204
    Abstract: A disclosed non-transitory computer-readable recording medium includes a printing management program. The printing management program, when processed by a processor, causes a computer to function as a registration receiving unit configured to receive registration of a sheet requirement of first sheets that is specified in a print job, a print job receiving unit configured to receive the print job from a previous process within a printing process, and a print preview display unit configured to reflect the registered sheet requirement of the first sheets in the received print job to display a print preview.

  • Patent number: 6133379
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a thermoplastic resin composition by melt mixing Thermoplastic Resin (A) with Thermoplastic Resins (B) and (C) having a lower melting temperature or glass transition point than Thermoplastic Resin (A) by 10.degree. C. or more. The method comprises feeding Thermoplastic Resin (A) containing volatile components having a molecular weight of 300 or less at an amount of 500 to 30,000 ppm and Thermoplastic Resin (B) containing fewer volatile components than Component A from a top supply port of a melt kneader, removing volatile components under reduced pressure, and feeding Thermoplastic Resin (C) from a side supply port. According to the present invention, it is possible to produce a thermoplastic resin composition which satisfies inconsistent properties, i.e., improved impact strength and fewer volatile components, while at the same time having advantages in energy consumption and operation.

  • Patent number: 5294419
    Abstract: A method for removing nitrogen oxides and organic chlorine compounds from a combustion waste gas, which comprises the steps of: adding ammonia (NH.sub.3) as a reducing agent to a combustion waste gas containing nitrogen oxides and organic chlorine compounds; causing the combustion waste gas added with ammonia to contact with, while keeping the temperature of the combustion waste gas within a prescribed range, with a catalyst comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), ruthenium (Ru), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe) and oxides thereof, supported on the surface of a carrier comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of titanium oxide (TiO.sub.2), silicon oxide (SiO.sub.2), aluminum oxide (Al.sub.2 O.sub.3) and zirconium oxide (ZrO.sub.2), thereby removing nitrogen oxides and organic chlorine compounds from the combustion waste gas.

  • Patent number: 5271339
    Abstract: A combustion apparatus for a refuse incinerator has a plurality of rows of grates arranged in parallel in the directions of breadth and in series in the longitudinal directions of a combustion zone and a post-combustion zone of the combustion apparatus. The rows consist of immobile grates and mobile grates alternately arranged. Immobile girders support the immobile grates. Mobile girders support the mobile grates. A partition wall divides the combustion apparatus into the combustion zone and the post-combustion zone. Seals cooperates with the mobile girders and are located on the partition wall. A hydraulic cylinder shuttles the mobile girders. Bearing housings are mounted on upper protrusions of the mobile girders holding the mobile grates so as to be able to vibrate.

  • Patent number: 5260044
    Abstract: A method for removing detrimental organic chlorine compounds such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans from a combustion waste gas, which comprises the steps of: bringing organic chlorine compounds contained in a combustion waste gas at a temperature within a range of from 150.degree. to 350.degree. C. into contact with a catalyst comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of platinum, palladium, ruthenium, manganese, copper, chromium and iron and oxides thereof, which catalyst is supported on the surface of a carrier containing at least titanium oxide, Aluminum oxide and silicon oxide, to cause a decomposition reaction of the organic chlorine compounds, thereby removing organic chlorine compounds from the combustion waste gas at a high efficiency.

  • Patent number: 5226374
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of controlling combustion of a fluidized-bed incinerator. In a fluidized-bed incinerator (5), a method of controlling combustion of the fluidized-bed incinerator comprises measuring a supply rate of incineration waste by a supply rate measuring unit (11) using a photoelectric element (1) arranged on a shoot (2) for supplying incineration waste (3) from a dust feeder (4) to the incinerator (5), and when the supply rate of incineration waste is higher than a predetermined value, decreasing a supply rate of incineration waste of the dust feeder 4 to suppress a combusting operation, increasing an induced gas rate of an exhaust gas induced blower (9) of the incinerator to suppress an increase in an incinerator internal pressure decreasing a flow rate of fluidizing air of a forcing blower (7) to suppress a combusting operation, or increasing a flow rate of a blower (8) for supplying air to a free board portion to prevent production of an unburnt gas.

  • Patent number: 5197397
    Abstract: A grate structure for a horizontal type incinerator has a plurality of rows of grates arranged in parallel in perpendicular X and Y directions of the incinerator. Each X-direction row has a series of immovable grates and a series of movable grates alternating with the immovable grates. The immovable grates and movable grates are supported at a predetermined angle of .theta..sub.1 relative to a surface of the immovable supporting member. The immovable grates are pivotally mounted on an immovable support and the movable grates are pivotally mounted on a sawtooth shaped movable support. The free forward end of each grate rests on the adjacent grate. The movable grates are reciprocated back and forth along the upper surfaces of the immovable grates. In the Y direction, each row of grates is pivoted on a common axle by way of a common bearing member.

  • Patent number: 5009871
    Abstract: A method of removing mercury from the exhaust gases of a waste incinerator. The method is applied to a gas-liquid contact-type smoke cleaner so that the exhaust gases emitted from the waste incinerator are washed with a washing liquid to which an oxidizing agent is added so as to attain an oxidation-reduction potential or COD value such that mercury existing in the form of mercuric chloride and mercury forming complex ions with chlorine in the washing liquid are not reduced by reducing substances present in the washing liquid.
