A Centrifugal Gradocol Filter.

چکیده
Details of a centrifugal Seitz filter for sterilizing small quantities of fluid were reported some months ago in this journal (Hilson and Elek, 1950). It was then considered that a similar filter, fitted with a gradocol membrane (Elford, 1931) for virus or bacteriophage work where an asbestos pad is not suitable, might be useful. Moreover, a suggestion has been made (Latner and Slack, 1950) that such a device could also be used for the ultrafiltration of chemical mixtures. For these purposes a different design is necessary. The necessary requirements of such an apparatus are that it should be convenient for the handling of small quantities, since often the amount of available infectious material is limited. In addition it is essential that the apparatus should be safe in use, should not cause splashing, and should not leak. Since a wide range of pressures is needed when using gradocol membranes of different porosities both positive-pressure and suction types of apparatus are commonly employed. With centrifugal force, however, the whole range needed can easily be achieved.

A centrifugal method has been modified and applied to the assessment of water retention value (WRV) in cellulosic materials. Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), small particles/fibrils isolated from MCC using highpressure homogenizer, and pulp fibers saturated in water were centrifuged at different speeds and times with filter paper and/or a membrane acting as the filter in the WRV measurement se...

A high performance KIER TYPE CYBAGFILTER that combines a fabric filtration and centrifugal dust removal technologies was developed to maintain high performance of the existing bag filter. Based on the performance results obtained from a pilot-scale test unit and fluid dynamics computer simulation, a test CYBAGFILTER of 18,000m3/hr capacity was installed in the clinker calcination process of Yon...
متن کاملImproved rate and angle estimation through higher accuracy planar motion models
A large number of attitude estimation algorithms assume sensor placement along the axis of rotation. These models assume that all measured accelerations are due to gravity, while in reality this is not always the case. By expanding the system model to accommodate centrifugal and tangential accelerations the attitude can be more accurately estimated. This thesis introduces an approach to model a...
