In addition to extraction of the glucosinolates from RSM as a means of overcoming their toxicity, many investigators have attempted chemical alternation of the glucosinolates to destroy or remove the toxic compounds. Some have added unheated crushed rapeseed to the meal to provide a source of myrosinase, so as to autolyse the glucosinolates and liberate isothiocyanates, which are then steam volatilised. This is only partially successful since most of the isothiocyanates formed in rapeseed meal are not sufficiently volatile to flash off. Others have tried ammonia treatment and heat, cooking with soda under pressure, or treatment with ferrous salts and distillation. 3, record 4, English, - isothiocyanate

On extrait donc les glucosinolates des tourteaux de colza pour leur enlever leur toxicité, mais bon nombre de chercheurs ont également essayé de les modifier chimiquement pour détruire ou éliminer les composés toxiques. Certains ont ajouté aux tourteaux du colza broyé non chauffé comme source de myrosinase, afin de provoquer une autolyse des glucosinolates et de libérer des isothiocyanates qui peuvent être volatilisés par la vapeur. Ce procédé ne réussit pas parfaitement, parce que la plus grande partie des isothiocyanates formés dans les tourteaux de colza ne sont pas suffisamment volatils. D'autres ont essayé un traitement par l'ammoniac et la chaleur, une cuisson sous pression avec de la soude, ou un traitement avec des sels ferreux suivi d'une distillation. 2, record 4, French, - isothiocyanate

In a ruby laser, a rod of ruby is irradiated with the intense flash of light from xenon-filled flashtubes. Light in the green and blue regions of the spectrum is absorbed by chromium ions, raising the energy of electrons of the ions from the ground state level to one of the broad F bands of levels. Electrons in the F bands rapidly undergo non-radiative transitions to the two metastable E levels. A non-radiative transition does not result in the emission of light; the energy released in the transition is dissipated as heat in the ruby crystal. 2, record 6, English, - non%2Dradiative%20tansition

A fluidized bed reactor uses a sand bed which is kept in fluid condition by an upflow of air, as a heat reservoir to promote uniform combustion of sludge solids. The bed is preheated to approximately 122 °F by using fuel oil or gas. When sludge cake is introduced, rapid combustion occurs maintaining an operating temperature of about 1500 °F. 1, record 7, English, - fluidized%20bed%20reactor

Venting. When the hot plastic is injected into the mold it displaces air. In a well-built, properly clamped mold without vents, the injection material may compress the air. The heat of compression might burn the material. The force of the compression might open the mold, causing flash. The resistance of the compressed air might prevent the mold from completely filling. These problems are alleviated by used of vents, which are usually ground on the parting line.

Flash Calcining. Flash or gas suspension calcining is a recent development, and at least two manufacturers are promoting this technology as another alternative for pulp mill lime reburning. Fuller, for example, has over 25 flash calcining systems in operation on a variety of materials. The heart of the system is a swirl-type furnace in which the combustion of fuel is in intimate contact with the material being calcined. Fuller claims that the turbulent swirling mixture produces a uniform temperature profile, and that conventional flame temperatures are never encountered because the material absorbs the excess heat instantaneously. 1, record 13, English, - flash%20calcining

Blow heat evaporators typically take the form of a two-effect system in which flash steam(or hot condensate from the accumulator) is used as the heating medium for the first effect and vapors from the first effect are used as the heating medium in the second effect. Mechanical vapor recompression(MVR) raises vapor temperature through mechanical compression so that it can be re-used as the heating medium for evaporation.... Thermal recompression methods utilize high-pressure steam to entrain low-pressure vapor so that the resultant mixture(at intermediate pressure) can be used as the heat source for evaporation. 1, record 14, English, - mechanical%20vapor%20recompression

Il existe maintenant un grand nombre d'autres systèmes de concentration de la liqueur noire qui peuvent remplacer ou améliorer les évaporateurs à multiple effet traditionnels. Le choix d'un équipement pour une usine moderne commande une étude minutieuse des avantages relatifs et du coût global des autres systèmes, principalement en termes d'épargnes d'énergie. Les méthodes de recompression thermique font appel à de la vapeur haute pression pour entraîner la vapeur basse pression de sorte que le mélange résultant (à pression intermédiaire) puisse être utilisé comme source de chaleur pour l'évaporation. La recompression mécanique de la vapeur (RMV) augmente la température de la vapeur par voie de compression mécanique pour que la vapeur puisse être réutilisée comme source de chaleur pour l'évaporation. 1, record 14, French, - recompression%20m%C3%A9canique%20de%20la%20vapeur

A variation of flash drying is embodied in the so-called "steam dryer", where fluffed pulp is dried in a medium of slightly superheated low-pressure steam rather than in hot air. Heat is transferred to the pulp and transport steam by indirectly condensing higher-pressure steam. The water evaporated from the pulp is removed from the steam as low-pressure steam suitable for process use in the pulp or paper mill. It is claimed that net heat consumption can be as low as one-fourth of that used in a conventional drying system. 1, record 15, English, - steam%20dryer

Le «séchoir à vapeur» constitue une innovation prometteuse en matière de séchage de la pâte en flocons. La pâte y est séchée dans de la vapeur basse pression surchauffée moyennement ou légèrement plutôt que dans de l'air chaud. La chaleur est transmise à la pâte et à la vapeur de transport par condensation indirecte de la vapeur à pression plus élevée. L'eau qui s'évapore de la pâte est extraite de l'installation sous forme de vapeur basse pression pouvant servir dans les procédés des fabriques de pâtes ou de papiers. 1, record 15, French, - s%C3%A9choir%20%C3%A0%20vapeur

The Flash Pyrolysis process involves the rapid heating of finely shredded organic materials in the absence of air using a proprietary heat exchange system. The incoming feed is heated by contact with recycled char and pyrolysed to form liquids, gas, and char. 2, record 17, English, - flash%20pyrolysis

Flash pyrolysis is a rapid heating rate process (greater than 2°C/s) occurring at moderate temperatures (typically 400-600°C) whose liquid tar/oil products are maximized at the expense of char and gas. Vapour residence times are normally less than 2s. 3, record 17, English, - flash%20pyrolysis
