Using an organic binder containing at least one water-soluble thermoplastic organic polymer and at least one water-insoluble thermoplastic organic polymer, the water-soluble thermoplastic organic polymer is extractd by debinding treatment in which a plastic molded part such as injection molded part and water are brought into contact with each other to prevent the occurrence of cracks in the molded...

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 DEG ...

A central station (Z) is connected to at least one primary alarm line (MPL) which is formed by a serial signal bus (SB) to which various elements (EL1 to ELn) and, at the termination of a respective surveillance area (UEB1, UEB2), a block lock element (BS1, BS2) are connected. All connected elements are capable of monitoring and emitting alarm signals almost simultaneously, the signal (UES) used f...
