The electrode temperature control device in a processing apparatus 100 includes a freezing circuit 110 comprising a compressor 148, a condenser 142, an expansion valve 150 and an evaporator 108 with the evaporator disposed inside a lower electrode 106. This electrode temperature control device does not require components such as a coolant tank for storing the coolant, a pump for supplying the coolant to the processing apparatus, a heater for adjusting the temperature of the coolant and a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between a primary coolant and a secondary coolant. Thus, the production cost can be lowered, a reduction in installation area through miniaturization of the apparatus is achieved and more efficient use of energy is achieved as well. In addition, by using CO₂ as the coolant, the GWP value can be reduced to approximately {fraction (1/8000)} to {fraction (1/7000)} that of Freon.

A light assembly contains a troffer containing a housing. One or more LED light units are contained within the troffer, wherein each of the LED light units contain only one corresponding conductive end cap. A pair of conductors extending from each of the corresponding conductive end caps are mated with a corresponding socket contained within a DC power supply module contained within the troffer.

Disclosed is a waterproofing membrane that performs well at both high and low temperatures. The waterproofing membrane comprises a carrier support layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer comprises a pressure sensitive bitumen composition comprising bitumen (asphalt), synthetic rubber, high density polyethylene, amorphous polyolefin, ground vulcanized crumb rubber and, optionally, a plasticizer. The waterproofing membrane also may optionally include a removable release sheet on the adhesive layer.

The present invention provides for wood based panels (e.g., OSB or plywood) that are termite resistant, fungal resistant, or a combination thereof; and methods of manufacturing the same.

Iron-sulfide redox flow battery (RFB) systems can be advantageous for energy storage, particularly when the electrolytes have pH values greater than 6. Such systems can exhibit excellent energy conversion efficiency and stability and can utilize low-cost materials that are relatively safer and more environmentally friendly. One example of an iron-sulfide RFB is characterized by a positive electrolyte that comprises Fe(III) and/or Fe(II) in a positive electrolyte supporting solution, a negative electrolyte that comprises S²⁻ and/or S in a negative electrolyte supporting solution, and a membrane, or a separator, that separates the positive electrolyte and electrode from the negative electrolyte and electrode.

A graphic light module for use with portable device includes a case body, a graphic light block, and a power supply unit. The case body is combined with the outer casing of the portable device and has an accommodating space. The graphic light block is replaceably disposed in the accommodating space. The graphic light block includes a light-permeable film, an image component combined with the light-permeable film, and a light emitting component. The power supply unit is disposed inside the case body and is electrically coupled to the light emitting component to allow the light emitting component to emit light in order to display a graphic image of the image component.

The first product is Composite Guardrail Post (CGP). CGP is designed overcome all these drawbacks by substituting standard timber posts with metal jacket composite posts. The second product is Composite Floor Joist (CFI). The current invention (CFI) is similar to TJI in concept, but uses all composite material for both flanges and webs. Also, the connections between flange and web are much stronger, enabling the development of composite actions to the fullest extent.

The invention relates to a rigid board plastic flooring comprising a wear layer, a decoration layer, a first connecting layer and a bottom layer which are connected in sequence, and also relates to the production method thereof. The bottom layer of the flooring is prepared using extrusion molding without adding plasticizer. The product is therefore more environmentally friendly. The edge of the click product is not easily damaged during storage and transportation as the bottom layer comprises a plastic hard board and the strength of the click profile is strong.

A method for the manufacture of components made of steel subject to heavy stress, load and/or wear, such as rolling bearing elements,hot forming components of a steel having an austenite carbon content at a hot forming temperature of about 800-1100° C. of 0.55-0.85 wt %, above the Al temperature of the steel;hardening the components directly from the hot forming temperature in air;hard machining of the components to their final dimensions; andsurface finishing the components.

A solid base catalyst having a carrier, an organic base, and an inorganic base. Both of the organic base and inorganic base are loaded on the carrier. The solid base catalyst is especially suitable for the synthesis of 4-Aminodiphenylamine (4-ADPA).

The instant invention pertains to the use of formic acid in new processes for treating feedstocks comprising holocellulose, as well as, new compositions suitable for, for example, bioalcohol production. The processes may comprise first mixing the feedstock with an aqueous acid solution comprising formic acid and then producing a hydrolysis product comprising monosaccharides and water-soluble oligosaccharides. The compositions typically comprise a feedstock comprising holocellulose and an aqueous acid solution comprising formic acid. Advantageously, the processes and compositions of the present invention may be used in more environmentally friendly, cost-efficient production of fuels.

The present invention relates to a method for drying high moisture, low calorific value lignite for a generating set and recovering water contained therein and an apparatus thereof, which mainly consisting of a rotary steam tube dryer, a washing cooling tower, a coal mill, a 1st bag filter I, a condenser, a weighing surge bunker, a water ring vacuum pump and so on. In the present invention, a drying system is integrated with a milling system, every dryer and the corresponding coal mill are disposed and are directly connected via a surge bunker, thereby not only saving the heat lost during the transportation of pulverized coal, but also omitting a long-distance transportation from a conventional drying system to a conventional milling system, effectively avoiding such phenomena as dust pollution, waste and spontaneous combustion during transportation and transshipment, simplifying the coal preparation system employed in the front-end process of drying.
