  • Publication number: 20220341061
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cellulosic fibre loaded with a biologically active substance formed by the steps of: a) producing a cellulosic fibre loaded with ion exchanger, b) after-treating the fibre thus produced with an aqueous solution of a metal salt which exhibits antibacterial activity and/or antiviral activity, and c) after-treating the loaded fibre with an aqueous fixing solution to convert the metal salt into a water-insoluble form. The cellulosic fibres thus produced can be used to form textile fabrics, wound dressings, sanitary products, specialty papers, packaging or filter materials.

  • Publication number: 20210032834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a bucket wheel excavator whose bucket wheel is rotationally drivable and is supported at a pivotable bucket wheel boom and to a method of controlling such a bucket wheel excavator. In accordance with the invention, a mass flow and/or material flow adopted on the removal conveyor after a specific advance on the pivoting of the bucket wheel at the predetermined pivot angle speed is/are determined over the pivot angle, a desired mass flow and/or volume flow is/are specified on the removal conveyor, and then the previously specified pivot angle speed is automatically corrected using the determined mass flow and/or volume flow and the specified desired mass flow and/or volume flow to then perform the pivot cycle at the corrected pivot angle speed of the bucket wheel.

  • Patent number: 9288211
    Abstract: A computer generates a modified list of search terms by adding synonyms of the search terms and terms that are related to the search terms to a list of search terms. The computer removes frequently used words from the modified list of search terms. The computer responds to a determination that a user has authorization to view a field of a document by adding to the modified list of search terms an encrypted version of a search term included in a list of search terms. A search using the modified list of search terms returns a result that identifies the document as a search result when either the unencrypted or the encrypted version of the search term is found in a list of index terms associated with the first document.
