Abstract: A spirit level has a body member containing a leveling tube, in which the base of the body member has a width greater than the width of the body member in any other plane parallel with the base. Preferably the body member is triangular in cross section and may include three elongate wing or flange members extending radially from a central hub region. The body member may have axially-extending, for example telescopic, end members.

Abstract: A system for the abatement of industrial process emissions comprises a horizontal regenerative catalytic oxidizer (RCO). The system utilizes at least two regenerative chambers and at least two catalytic chambers in a controlled abatement process. Pollutants injected into the RCO from the process emissions are catalytically oxidized. The horizontal configuration of the RCO reduces the size of the RCO per cubic foot of emissions treated, and also simplifies maintenance requirements in removing and replacing, or regenerating, the catalyst. Chutes and valves situated above and below the catalyst provide maintenance means without the associated contamination concerns typically caused by catalytic migration throughout vertically configured RCOs.
