Abstract: A system and a method for renal replacement therapy includes a blood treatment unit connected to a blood circuit and a dialysis fluid circuit, the system further including a control unit configured to control the system according to control instructions during a treatment, so as to determine a system parameter value and an indication of membrane fouling of the membrane, and activate an automatic anti-fouling measure that includes a temporary change of the flow rate in the blood circuit and a temporary decrease of the ultrafiltration rate wherein a timing of the temporary change and a timing of the temporary reduction are synchronized.

Abstract: In order to eliminate flue gases generated in combustion of fuels in heating stoves a heating stove (1) is designed with a duct (14) above the fireplace (5) and closeable by means of a damper (16), whereby the flue gases pass through the bed of embers generated during combustion. A hearth (6) for the bed of embers is designed with obliquely set flat surfaces (26) for attaining of a concentrated bed of embers. There is located in the combustion chamber (58) of the heating stove (1) below the hearth (6) an aperture (9), which communicates with flue ducts (11), which communicate in turn with a flue (20), which discharges the flue gases from the heating stove. By means of a filling hatch (15) access can be gained to the interior of the said duct (14) to fill the heating stove and its fireplace with fuel.
