13—destabilization in concentrated wool-scouring liquors

Abstract: When concentrated wool-scouring liquors become destabilized, more suspended particles are recovered in the cream or sludge (or both) than from conventional scouring liquors. The results reported here indicate that coagulation by indifferent electrolytes, such as sodium sulphate, is the most important destabilizing mechanism, but density is important in determining whether the particles sink of float.

Selective Scouring of Dirt from Greasy Wool Part I: A Strategy to Improve Dirt Recovery from Scour Liquor Effluent:

Abstract: Laboratory experiments have shown that dirt removal by a cold suint bowl from both low and high yielding Australian merino fleece wools can increase from 10-25% to 40-60% by adding certain surfactants, builders, or their mixtures. Factorial exper iments show that increasing the concentration of the additives has the most significant positive effect on dirt removal and recovery, and grease removal. Increasing the tem perature of the suint bowl from 20 to 35°C has a less significant positive effect on each of the responses. Changing from a wool with high dirt and medium grease (low yielding) to a wool with low dirt and medium grease (high yielding) results in a lower percentage of both dirt and grease removed by the modified suint bowl, but the overall removal of both is greater than when no additives are present. Factorial experiments also show that one very effective formulation comprises a mixture of nonionic sur factant and soda ash. The settling efficiency of dirt (which determines dirt recovery) is de...

Reconstruction of Chronic Foveal TFCC Tears with an Autologous Tendon Graft.

Abstract: Background A triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury can produce distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability. If the foveal attachment is avulsed, it translates distally. The footprint is separated from its origin and will become covered in synovitis, preventing healing. The authors describe a surgical technique for the treatment of instability of the DRUJ due to chronic foveal detachment of the TFCC. Technique The procedure utilizes a loop of autologous palmaris longus tendon graft passed through the ulnar aspect of the TFCC and through an osseous tunnel in the distal ulna to reconstruct the fovel attachment. Patients and Methods We report on nine patients with a mean age of 42. Median follow-up was 13 months. Results The median pain scores measured were reduced from 8 to 3 postoperatively, and all had a stable DRUJ. Conclusions This technique provides stability of the distal ulna to the radius and carpus, with potential for biologic healing through osseous integration. It is a robust, anatomically based reconstruction of the TFCC to the fovea that stabilizes the DRUJ and the ulnar-carpal sag.
