Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for generating a fuel gas for a gas turbine by separating off sulphur components from a gas mixture containing hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and also carbonyl sulphide and/or hydrogen sulphide, which gas mixture is in this case scrubbed in a physical gas scrubber with a methanol scrubbing medium at a pressure between 30 and 80 bar(a) in order to obtain a first sulphur-free gas mixture and also a methanol scrubbing medium loaded with sulphur components and carbon dioxide, which methanol scrubbing is then regenerated, wherein a carbon dioxide-rich gas phase that contains sulphur components and is formed by pressure reduction is treated in a further gas scrubber with a methanol scrubbing medium in order to back-wash sulphur components and to generate a second sulphur-free gas mixture.

Abstract: A method for operating a gas scrubber, wherein a first feed gas is scrubbed in a first scrubbing installation and a second feed gas is scrubbed in a second scrubbing installation operated in parallel to the first, with the same physically acting scrubbing medium, in order to dissolve sulfur components out of the feed gases containing contaminants and to obtain desulfurized gas streams, wherein scrubbing medium streams loaded with sulfur components and co-absorbed carbon monoxide arise, and wherein the first feed gas, the carbon monoxide partial pressure of which is lower than that of the second, is scrubbed in the first scrubbing installation at a lower pressure than the second feed gas in the second scrubbing installation. The scrubbing medium is loaded in the second scrubbing installation with sulfur components and co-absorbed carbon monoxide is expanded into the first scrubbing installation to convert dissolved carbon monoxide to the gas phase.

Abstract: A drill bit 1 has a drill head 3 and a shank 4. The shank 4 has a body 20, an add-on part 40 and an internal channel 50. The drill head 3 is attached to the body 20. The add-on part 40 is attached to a lateral surface 21 of the body 20 and arranged completely within a cylindrical envelope 29 that circumscribes the body 20. The internal channel is configured within the add-on part and/or between the add-on part 40 and the lateral surface 21.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine is provided. The engine includes a cylinder head having a cylinder having an exhaust valve opening and an intake valve opening, an intake port in fluidic communication with the intake valve opening and configured to flow intake air to the cylinder through the intake valve opening, and a condensate drainage channel extending into a wall of the intake port and including an inlet positioned downstream of an outlet, the inlet positioned vertically above the outlet.

Abstract: A production process is provided for a drill including the following steps. From a rod-shaped blank comprising an end section, a central section, and a hollow space extending at least through the end section and the central section along an axis of the blank, the end section is formed in a direction extending radially relative to the axis, the diameter of the hollow space in the end section being reduced. Either a cutting element is attached to the end section or grooves are introduced into the end section for forming a shank.

Abstract: A method of anchoring a fastening element includes drilling a borehole (7) in a constructional component (6) with a percussively-rotationally driven hollow drill (12), while aspirating produced drillings and drilling dust with a vacuum source (26) through a gap between an outer side of the hollow drill (12) and a wall of the borehole (7) during drilling of the borehole (7), immediately after formation of the suction-cleaned borehole (7), filling the borehole (7) with a self-hardenable mortar (41), and inserting the fastening element (46) into the self-hardenable mortar (41).

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-compartment packaging comprising a base part provided with at least two cups (11,12) which are used to receive the components, and a cover film which is connected to the base part. The components can be mixed together by exerting pressure on the connection area between the at least two cups which, as a result, becomes detached. The cover film is made of at least two films (20,30) having different structures. One section or one surface arranged above at least one cup (11) is covered by only one of the two films (20). Due to said selective covering of the base part and/or the components located in the two cups by the films adapted to the user profile of the compartments, the desired physical properties can be adjusted in a separate manner in relation to the density and/or light-impermability for the two cups.

Abstract: A system for allowing members or prospective members to simultaneously contact multiple providers to secure an appointment on short notice. The system also enables the provider to view or obtain requests for appointments from members who the provider may not have previously met and/or served. The system further enables a facilitator 304 to monitor the communication exchanges between members and providers and to intervene directly if needed. The system includes a web application, a provider network, facilitator, a database server, a web server, and a database. The web application includes a web site that facilitates interaction between members, providers, the facilitator and the system. The web site also includes a list of common medical terms, phrases, and pharmaceuticals that are cross-referenced in multiple languages. The provider network processes information provided by users of the system and the database stores information processed in the system.
