  • Patent number: 9707410
    Abstract: A pierce and fill connector cap for a vial sealed by an elastomeric septum includes a vial collar and a needle holder. The vial collar body defines a collar aperture to be positioned in overlying registry with the septum of the vial, and the needle holder includes a needle holder body providing a means for holding an elongate needle in registry with the collar aperture. The needle holder body being moveable with respect to said vial collar between a first position spaced from the vial collar and a second position proximate the vial collar, such that a needle held by the needle holder will puncture through the vial septum.

  • Publication number: 20160279567
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydrated-lime-based composition, to a method for producing such a composition and to the use thereof for treating fumes or flue gases (by means of a dry or substantially dry treatment process), in particular to reduce the chlorine, sulphur and halogen compounds in exhaust gases or flue gases, especially acid flue gases. Said composition comprise a high surface area hydrated lime, a first additive selected from NaCl, Na2SO4 and CaCl2, a sodium compound selected from NaOH, Na2CO3 and NaI— and less than 5% by weight water.

  • Patent number: 7056956
    Abstract: Process for recycling a plastic, according to which the plastic is brought into contact with a solvent capable of dissolving the same and the plastic dissolved in the solvent is precipitated using a non-solvent in the presence of a phase-separating agent, in which the phase-separating agent is compatible with the solvent and incompatible with the non-solvent, and is also present when the plastic is brought into contact with the solvent, and improves the dissolution of the plastic by the solvent.

  • Publication number: 20050077640
    Abstract: Process for manufacturing a mixture based on a plastic and on at least one additive, according to which: 1. the plastic in the form of powder or of pellets is dissolved in a solvent; 2. the additive(s) is/are introduced into the solution after or during the dissolution; 3. the precipitation of the plastic in solution is brought about by injecting a non-solvent.

  • Patent number: 6811152
    Abstract: A method of and a device for controlling the orientation and the alignment of individual sheets of paper travelling on a sheet conveyor are provided. Each sheet passes over a pair of closely spaced rotating disks inserted between upstream and downstream sheet conveyor sections. Each sheet is locally engaged with each disk in a limited contact area. The contact areas between the sheet and each disk are varied so as to achieve a target orientation or alignment of the sheet.

  • Patent number: 4492216
    Abstract: An oven with air convection combustion, particularly for bakehouses (bread, pastries, cakes), to achieve considerable economy of energy and to improve efficiency has primary and secondary air circuits sealed and closed, the secondary air being heated in ducts surrounding the fire-box and exhaust conduits and admitted into the baking chamber through adjustable nozzles. The cooled secondary air leaving oven is recycled by the a turbine. A vapor generator is formed from metal tubes extending into the exhaust gas conduit and the vapor is fed to a ramp pierced with calibrated holes disposed vertically in the baking chamber through which it is disposed into the chamber after being saturated by a water injector.
