Abstract: An example apparatus includes interface circuitry, machine-readable instructions, and at least one processor circuit to be programmed by the machine-readable instructions to present a graphical user interface associated with a conversational workshop, a type of the graphical user interface presented based on a status of a user account, identify a conversation flow to present on the graphical user interface, the conversation flow based on a type of activity, receive user input associated with the type of activity, the user input including input from a plurality of users, identify at least one of a consent or a consensus from the user input, and output, based on the at least one of the consent or the consensus, a progress of the conversational workshop.

Abstract: A method is provided for in-situ cooling of biological tissue within the body, the biological tissue being selected from the group consisting of organ tissue, blood vessel tissue and combinations thereof. The method comprises establishing a heat-conducting contact between a heat absorption zone of a cooling unit of a device for in-situ cooling of biological tissue and the biological tissue within the body, transporting thermal energy from the heat absorption zone of the cooling unit via a substance for transporting thermal energy, which is arranged within a hollow tube of the device for in-situ cooling of biological tissue, to a cooling device of the device for in-situ cooling of biological tissue, and releasing the thermal energy via the cooling device. The method allows protecting biological tissue within the body in a location-selective manner from cancer-therapy-caused damage during cancer therapy in a simple, cost-effective and low-risk manner.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for waste tyres pyrolysis wherein whole tyres are directly heated in a tunnel type furnace with flue gases from the combustion of pyrolysis gases. The process produces thermal energy, carbon black and mineral oil. The cooled flue gases are purified from sulfur oxides before released into the atmosphere.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for waste tyres pyrolysis wherein whole tyres are directly heated with flue gases from the combustion of pyrolysis gases, in a tunnel type furnace. The process produces thermal energy, carbon black and mineral oil; the cooled flue gases are cleaned from sulfur oxides before released into the atmosphere.

Abstract: Apparatus for the vapor deposition of volatizable solid substances on continuously moving substrates, more particularly for the production of photographic materials by vapor deposition of silver halides on continuosly moving substrates, is constructed so as to prevent direct contact between heating means for a crucible for the solid substance and the solid substance therein and to enable a stream of vapor of the solid substance to be produced which is of high intensity enabling a high rate of growth of the deposited layer to occur.
