Abstract:
The invention relates to a fluidizing plate, comprising a supporting structure and plate segments, the plate segments respectively having openings through which gas flows during operation. The plate segments are respectively releasably connected to the supporting structure and two neighboring plate segments respectively overlap and are releasably connected to one another in the region of the overlap. The invention also relates to an apparatus with such a fluidizing plate.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for producing water-absorbing polymer particles, comprising polymerization and drying the resulting polymer gel on a through-circulation belt dryer having at the end of the belt in transport direction a means for guiding the dried polymer gel down towards a means for crushing the dried polymer gel.
Abstract:
A method is described for operating machines (10) having moving parts and arranged jointly on a support (32), said parts being moved periodically with substantially the same frequency, and wherein the phase of an oscillation of one machine (10) in relation to the phase of an oscillation of a further machine (10) is controlled by shifting the phases with respect to one another such that the amplitude of an oscillation of a structural part, for example of the support (32), remains below a predefined maximum value.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for producing water-absorbing polymer particles, comprising thermal postcrosslinking in a contact dryer having external heated outer surfaces.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for connecting functional elements (14) to a shaft (10), comprising the following steps: (a) elevations (12) for receiving the functional elements (14) are formed, the elevations (12) being worked out of the shaft (10) by material removal, (b) the functional elements (14) are welded to the elevations (12) on the shaft (10).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for operating a mixing kneader, comprising one or more shafts on whose surfaces are disposed kneading bars and which are surrounded by a casing, comprising the following steps:(a) supplying reactants at an addition site in the mixing kneader,(b) converting the reactants in an exothermic reaction, the reaction at first forming a coherent kneadable intermediate,(c) tearing and dividing the coherent kneadable intermediate to form a product, the exothermic reaction optionally continuing during the tearing and division,(d) withdrawing the product at a withdrawal site in the mixing kneader, wherein at least one of the shafts and/or the casing is heated to a temperature above 20° C. during the operation of the mixing kneader.
