Abstract:
This invention provides a method for underwater frictional welding of metallic articles, which method comprises preparatorily wrapping a heat insulating material such as tape around the periphery at the terminal face of each of the metallic articles subjected to welding, abutting under pressure the terminal faces of the metallic articles against each other and welding the confronting ends of the metallic articles by utilizing the frictional heat produced in the terminal faces by the relative rotary motion and the pressure exerted in the axial direction.
Abstract:
A device for automatic determination of suspended solids content in water comprises an automatic sample liquid collection unit, an automatic specimen preparation unit, an automatic filter paper feeding unit, an automatic filter paper transfer unit, an automatic suspended solids filtration unit, an automatic drying unit, an automatic weighing and display unit and an automatic process control unit. A sample liquid automatically collected is prepared automatically to produce a test specimen. The specimen is filtered through a sheet of filter paper supplied by the automatic filter paper feeding unit. The filter paper on which the suspended solids of the specimen are deposited in consequence of the filtration is dried by the automatic drying unit and thereafter weighed. The weight thus taken is automatically converted into a corresponding electrical quantity and forwarded to an arithmetic circuit, in which the suspended solids content of the given liquid is calculated and recorded.

Abstract:
PURPOSE:To efficiently densign the conditions for forming a gas separation asymmetrical membrane showing the separation performance as the characteristics of a raw material, and to obtain the separation coefft. for methane and carbon dioxide which is expected for characteristics of the raw material of the membrane when the gas separation asymmetrical membrane is formed iN these conditions determined by this method. CONSTITUTION:A film forming liquid is applied on a supporting body into uniform thickness. This film forming liquid essentially consists of polyethersulfone (PES) or polysulfone (PS) as the film material and an intrinsic solvent which dissolves the film material, and an auxiliary solvent may be added as necessary. The surface layer of the applied film forming liquid is partly vaporized and dipped in a gelling agent to cause phase transition to form a gel film and to produce the gas separation symmetrical membrane. In this method, the optimum conditions for forming the membrane concerning to the component and compsn. of the intrinsic solvent auxiliary solvent added as necessary, and the gelling agent are selected from the following characteristics. (1): gelation point of the film forming liquid, (2): mixing heating value of the solvents and the gelling agent, and (3): dissolving rate of the solvent to the gelation agent.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To contrive the improvement of the separating ability of an unsymmetrical membrane with an easy operation by a method wherein commercially available polysulfone or polyether sulfone is used as the material in the manufacture of the membrane and the surface of a gas separating unsymmetrical membrane manufactured by phase change process is sulfonated. CONSTITUTION:A sheet- or hollow fiber-like unsymmetrical membrane for use in gas separation is obtained from the use of polysulfone or polyether sulfone as the material by phase change process. The surface of this membrane is then sulfonated by treating with sulfonating agent, thereby forming the unsymmetrical membrane having a high gas separating ability. Preferably, the membrane surface may be treated with metallic salt using alkaline metal compound after sulfonation. This method permits the improvement of the gas separating ability by merely subjecting the membrane to an atmosphere of fuming sulfuric acid. Furthermore, a substantial improvement of the separation performance is made possible by merely immersing the membrane in a solution of the alkaline metal compound. This method provides an easy operation, making easy the manufacture of the membrane having a high gas separating ability. This membrane is also useful for ultrafiltration.
