The invention relates to a process for the production of substantially non-alcoholic beer by a continuous yeast treatment at a low temperature. In the process, wort which has been clarified and possibly treated by evaporating and/or with an absorbing agent is passed through a packed column reactor containing immobilized yeast at a temperature ranging between the freezing point of wort and +10.degr...

A biaxially oriented film mainly composed of a linear low-density polyethylene having a temp. difference between Tmb and Tma of at least 3 deg.C, wherein Tma is a main peak temp. of a melting curve obtd. in the m.pt. measurement with a differential scanning calorimeter by holding a sample at 190 deg.C for 30 mins., lowering the temo. to 20 deg.C at a rate of 100 deg.C/min., and elevating the temp....

Aqueous thixotropic foam-producing chemical compositions are presented which are comprised of an anionic sulfonate or sulfate surfactant, a fatty acid having 10-30 carbon atoms, an acrylic-based thixotropic thickener, an acrylic acid polymer processing aide and a base present in a concentration sufficiently high to neutralize all of the acid components of the mixture and adjust the pH to above 7.5...

COLUMN ANALYZER SYSTEM An analyzer system for automatic column chromatography, and method for its use, includes an array of chromatograph columns and multi-cell cuvettes associated with each column. Chromatographic separation takes place under a constant, low fluid pressure. A pressure system distributes air to each column during chromatographic separation but prevents leakage of air if the column...

2065437 9106787 PCTABS00005 A driveline is provided for vehicles with two or more driving wheels in which power is carried between the transmission and each wheel through a parallel shaft differential with two internal gear pairs. A traction balance, connecting the differentials, counterbalances reactive torque. Relative wheel traction is varied by change gears within the traction balance or by co...

A Very Large Hybrid Module (VLHM) for packaging electronic components provides a hermetic enclosure formed by a hermetic substrate on which the components are mounted together with a hermetic lid surrounding groups of the components. A second substrate outside the hermetic enclosure is utilized for providing connections between the electronic components.

The invention concerns a cement matrix and its advantageous production, in particular for glass-fibre reinforced cement or concrete, consisting of a standard or special cement and additives in a solid or liquid form for binding the calcium hydroxide which forms during the hydration process. A particularly advantageous additive is reactive silicon dioxide which is recovered from the flue gases duri...

PURPOSE:To suppress heat generation by hydration reaction and to improve strength, containing a hydrolyzable tannin compound. CONSTITUTION:This additive for rolled concrete contains a hydrolyzable tannin compound. The hydrolyzable tannin compound used in the additive is a compound wherein a phenolic carboxylic acid is linked to a saccharide by ester bond. This compound is converted into the acid o...

A cargo container is adapted to transport liquids and, alternatively, solid cargo which comprises a box-like housing (10) having rigid side walls (11) and an expandable vessel (1) for containing the liquids mounted inside the box housing. The expansible vessel (1) includes a rigid fixed bottom wall (2), a rigid top wall (3) extending parallel to the bottom wall, and a flexible impermeable sleeve (...
