If this was a "fan post" this would surely get the most cools and win the comp haha.
On a serious note though, WOW.
One step closer to joining Plamer, Celeste and Leah if you know what I mean
It has been one hell of a year for Ronda Rousey, the first ever women's UFC champion has been setting records in the world of MMA and has become a pioneer for WMMA. After beating Liz Carmouche to claim the Bantamweight crown, becoming the first female UFC champion and the first female TUF coach, making the cover of ESPN's anniversary edition-what more is there left to do?
Making Business Insider's list of top 50 women changing the world and Maxim's hot 100 is what Rousey has accomplished just this week. 'Rowdy' ranked no.42 on the business insider list and picked up an impressive 29th spot with Maxim's hot 100. Miley Cyrus claims the number one spot of the hot 100 list, but I know who I would rather share a cocktail with.
Rousey is certainly changing the world of WMMA for the better, her spot on TUF 18 opposite Cat Zingano will help push it even further in to the limelight where it should have been for years now.

The present invention relates to a method of charging catalyst tubes of a bundle of catalyst tubes in a structured fashion, in which individual catalyst tubes of the bundle of catalyst tubes are charged in a uniform manner from the bottom upward in sections with different formulations of shaped catalyst bodies.
Processes for carrying out heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase reactions over a fixed bed of catalyst located in the usually vertical tubes of shell-and-tube reactors (reactors which have a bundle of catalyst tubes present in a reactor shell) are known, just like the shell-and-tube reactors required for this purpose (cf., for example, DE-A 44 31 949, EP-A 700 714). These can be either endothermic or exothermic gas-phase reactions. In both cases, the reaction gas mixture is passed through the fixed bed of catalyst located in the catalyst tubes of the shell-and-tube reactor and the reactants are reacted partially or completely during the residence time of the reactants over the catalyst surface. The reaction temperature in the catalyst tubes is controlled by passing a liquid heat transfer medium around the catalyst tubes of the tube bundle located in a shell in order to introduce energy into the reaction system or to remove energy from the reaction system. The heat transfer medium and reaction gas mixture can be passed through the shell-and-tube reactor either in cocurrent or in countercurrent.
Apart from the possibility of passing the heat transfer medium in a simple manner essentially directly in a direction longitudinal to the catalyst tubes, this longitudinal transport can also be realized only over the entire reactor shell and transverse flow can be superimposed on this longitudinal flow within the reactor shell by means of a succession of deflection plates which leave parts of the cross section free and are arranged along the catalyst tubes, so that a meandering flow of the heat transfer medium results in a longitudinal section through the bundle of tubes (cf., for example, DE-A 44 31 949, EP-A 700 714, DE-PS 28 30 765, DE-A 22 01 528, DE-A 22 31 557 and DE-A 23 10 517).
If necessary, heat transfer media which are substantially separated from one another in space can be passed around the catalyst tubes at tube sections located at different positions along the tubes. The tube section over which the particular heat transfer medium extends then usually represents a separate reaction zone. A preferred variant of such multizone shell-and-tube reactors is the two-zone shell-and-tube reactor as described, for example, in the documents DE-C 28 30 765, DE-C 25 13 405, U.S. Pat. No. 3,147,084, DE-A 22 01 528, EP-A 383 224 and DE-A 29 03 582.
Suitable heat transfer media are, for example, melts of salts such as potassium nitrate, potassium nitrite, sodium nitrite and/or sodium nitrate, low-melting metals such as sodium, mercury and alloys of various metals, ionic liquids (in which at least one of the oppositely charged ions contains at least one carbon atom), but also conventional liquids such as water or high-boiling organic solvents (e.g. mixtures of Diphyl� and dimethyl phthalate).
The catalyst tubes are usually made of ferritic steel or stainless steel and frequently have a wall thickness of a few mm, e.g. from 1 to 3 mm. Their internal diameter is usually a few cm, e.g. from 10 to 50 mm, frequently from 20 to 30 mm. The tube length is normally in the range of a few meters (the catalyst tube length is typically in the range from 1 to 8 m, frequently from 2 to 6 m, often from 2 to 4 m). The number of catalyst tubes (working tubes) accommodated in the shell is, from an operational point of view, advantageously at least 1000, frequently at least 3000 or 5000 and often at least 10 000. The number of catalyst tubes accommodated in the reactor shell is frequently from 15 000 to 30 000 or 40 000 or 50 000. Shell-and-tube reactors having more than 50 000 catalyst tubes tend to be the exception. The catalyst tubes are normally distributed essentially homogeneously within the shell, with the distribution advantageously being such that the distance between the central internal axes of nearest-neighbor catalyst tubes (the catalyst tube spacing) is from 25 to 55 mm, frequently from 35 to 45 mm (cf., for example, EP-A 468 290).
Normally, at least some of the catalyst tubes (working tubes) of a shell-and-tube reactor are, from an operational point of view, advantageously uniform (within the limits of manufacturing accuracy) over their entire length, i.e. their internal diameter, their wall thickness and their length are identical within narrow tolerances (cf. WO 03/059857).
The abovementioned requirement profile frequently also applies to the charging of such uniformly manufactured catalyst tubes with shaped catalyst bodies (cf., for example, WO 03/057653) in order to ensure optimal and essentially trouble-free operation of the shell-and-tube reactor. It is important, in particular in order to achieve an optimum yield and selectivity of the reactions carried out in the shell-and-tube reactor, that preferably all working tubes of the reactor are charged as uniformly as possible with the catalyst bed.
A distinction is usually made between working tubes and thermotubes as are described, for example, in EP-A 873 783. While the working tubes are those catalyst tubes in which the chemical reaction to be carried out is actually carried out, thermotubes serve first and foremost to monitor and control the reaction temperature in the catalyst tubes. For this purpose, the thermotubes normally contain, in addition to the fixed bed of catalyst, a centrally located thermocouple sheath which is provided only with a temperature sensor and runs longitudinally in the thermotube. As a rule, the number of thermotubes in a shell-and-tube reactor is very much smaller than the number of working tubes. The number of thermotubes is normally ≦20.
What has been said above applies in particular to heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase partial oxidations of at least one organic compound which are carried out in shell-and-tube reactors and during which a comparatively large quantity of heat is liberated.
Examples which may be mentioned are the conversion of propene into acrolein and/or acrylic acid (cf., for example, DE-A 23 51 151), the conversion of tert-butanol, isobutene, isobutane, isobutyraldehyde or the methyl ether of tert-butanol into a methacrolein and/or methacrylic acid (cf., for example, DE-A 25 26 238, EP-A 92 097, EP-A 58 927, DE-A 41 32 263, DE-A 41 32 684 and DE-A 40 22 212), the conversion of acrolein into acrylic acid, the conversion of methacrolein into methacrylic acid (cf., for example, DE-A 25 26 238), the conversion of o-xylene or naphthalene into phthalic anhydride (cf., for example, EP-A 522 871) and the conversion of butadiene into maleic anhydride (cf., for example, DE-A 21 06 796 and DE-A 16 24 921), the conversion of n-butane into maleic anhydride (cf., for example, GB-A 1 464 198 and GB-A 1 291 354), the conversion of indanes into, for example, anthraquinone (cf., for example, DE-A 20 25 430), the conversion of ethylene into ethylene oxide or of propylene into propylene oxide (cf., for example, DE-B 12 54 137, DE-A 21 59 346, EP-A 372 972, WO 89/0710, DE-A 43 11 608), the conversion of propylene and/or acrolein into acrylonitrile (cf., for example, DE-A 23 51 151), the conversion of isobutene and/or methacrolein into methacrylonitrile (i.e. the term partial oxidation also encompasses, for the purposes of the present text, partial ammoxidation, i.e. partial oxidation in the presence of ammonia), the oxidative dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons (cf., for example, DE-A 23 51 151), the conversion of propane into acrylonitrile or into acrolein and/or acrylic acid (cf., for example, DE-A 101 31 297, EP-A 1 09 0684, EP-A 608 838, DE-A 100 46 672, EP-A 529 853, WO 01/96270 and DE-A 100 28 582) etc.
The catalysts to be used for carrying out heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase reactions over the fixed bed of catalyst located in the tubes of shell- and tube reactors are normally active compositions which can be shaped to produce shaped bodies of a variety of geometries (referred to as shaped catalyst bodies). Examples of such shaped bodies are spheres, pellets, extrudates, rings, spirals, pyramids, cylinders, prisms, cuboids, cubes, etc.
The shaped body can in the simplest case consist only of catalytically active composition which may, if appropriate, be diluted with inert material. Such shaped catalyst bodies are usually referred to as all-active catalysts.
In the case of all-active catalysts, shaping can, for example, be carried out by compacting catalytically active powder (e.g. a pulverulent active multielement oxide composition) to produce the desired catalyst geometry (e.g. by tableting, sintering, screw extrusion or ram extrusion). Shaping aids can be added in this procedure.
As an alternative, shaping can be achieved by coating a geometric body of catalytically inactive material (inert material) with active composition. Just like the all-active shaped catalyst bodies, such an inert support body can have a regular or irregular shape. Coating can in the simplest case be carried out by, for example, moistening the surface of an inert support body by means of a liquid binder and subsequently applying pulverulent active composition to the moistened surface so that it adheres to the surface. The resulting catalysts are referred to as coated catalysts.
Suitable inert support bodies for many heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase reactions are porous or nonporous aluminum oxides, silicon dioxide, thorium dioxide, zirconium dioxide, silicon carbide or silicates such as magnesium or aluminum silicate (e.g. steatite of the type C220 from CeramTec) and also metals such as stainless steel or aluminum.
Instead of coating the geometric inert (inert in this context generally means that when the reaction gas mixture is passed over a charge consisting only of diluent shaped bodies under the reaction conditions, the conversion of the reactants is ≦5 mol %, usually ≦2 mol %) support bodies with active composition, the support body can in many cases also be impregnated with a solution of the catalytically active substance, followed by evaporation of the solvent. The shaped catalyst bodies resulting from such a procedure are usually referred to as supported or impregnated catalysts.
The longest dimension of such shaped catalyst bodies (longest possible direct connecting line between two points on the surface of the shaped catalyst body) is usually from 1 to 20 mm, often from 2 to 15 mm and frequently from 3 or 4 to 10 or 8 or 6 mm. In the case of rings, the wall thickness is in addition usually from 0.5 to 6 mm, frequently from 1 to 4 or 3 or 2 mm.
The active compositions employed are particularly frequently noble metals (e.g. Ag) or oxidic compositions which comprise oxygen together with only one or more than one other element (multielement oxide compositions, e.g. multimetal oxide compositions).
Only in very few heterogeneously catalyzed gas-phase reactions over the fixed bed of catalyst present in the tubes of shell-and-tube reactors does the fixed bed of catalyst consist of a single bed of shaped catalyst bodies which is homogeneous along the individual catalyst tube and completely fills the catalyst tube.
Rather, a catalyst tube charge in the majority of cases consists of different sections of catalyst charge installed above one another. Each of the individual bed sections consist of a homogeneous bed of shaped catalyst bodies. However, their makeup (formulation) generally changes abruptly on going from one bed section to the next bed section. This results in fixed catalyst beds which have a heterogeneous structure along an individual catalyst tube. This is also referred to as a structured charge (or bed) in the catalyst tubes.
Examples of such structured charges in catalyst tubes are described, inter alia, in the documents EP-A 979 813, EP-A 90 074, EP-A 456 837, EP-A 1 106 598, U.S. Pat. No. 5,198,581 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,203,903.
In the simplest case, two different sections of catalyst charge in a reaction tube can differ from one another only in that shaped catalyst bodies comprising a single type of active composition have been diluted with a differing proportion of inert shaped bodies having no active composition (also known as shaped diluent bodies; in the simplest case, they can be inert support bodies, but can also be shaped bodies made of metal). The shaped diluent bodies can have the same geometry as or a different geometry (their possible longest dimension range is generally subject to the same limits as in the case of the shaped catalyst bodies) as the shaped catalyst bodies. Dilution profiles (dilution structures) of a variety of types can be produced by arranging sections of catalyst charge having differing degrees of dilution in series along a catalyst tube, in each case matched specifically to the requirements of the gas-phase reaction to be carried out. In many cases, the dilution structure is selected so that the degree of dilution decreases in the flow direction of the reaction gas mixture (i.e. the volume-specific active composition increases in the flow direction, so that the volume-specific activity is low where the reactant concentration is high and vice versa). However, a converse or completely different dilution profile (activity structuring) can also be selected if necessary. In the simplest case, a structured charge in a catalyst tube can be such that a section of catalyst charge composed of shaped catalyst bodies comprising active composition (which may be diluted with shaped diluent bodies) is located, for example, at the bottom of the catalyst tube and above it there is a section of catalyst charge consisting only of shaped diluent bodies (such sections of charge consisting only of shaped diluent bodies will hereinafter also be regarded as sections of charge comprising shaped catalyst bodies). It is also possible for two sections of charge made up of identical shaped catalyst bodies comprising an active composition to be interrupted by a section consisting only of shaped diluent bodies.
Of course, activity structuring can also be produced by a mixture which does not change along the section of two or more different shaped catalyst bodies comprising an active composition being present in a section of charge in a catalyst tube. Here, the shaped catalyst bodies can differ only in their geometry or only in the chemical makeup of the their active composition or only in the physical nature of their active composition (e.g. pore distribution, specific surface area, etc.) or only in the proportion by weight of the active composition applied to an inert shaped diluent body. However, they can also differ in a plurality or all of the abovementioned differentiating features. In addition, they can also include shaped diluent bodies. In place of activity structuring, the charge in the catalyst tubes can also have selectivity structuring. The latter is particularly advantageous when the gas-phase reaction occurs as a subsequent reaction and individual active compositions are able to catalyze the various sequential reaction steps in a tailored way.
Overall, a uniformly charged section in a reaction tube in the case of a charge structured in sections (from the bottom upward) in catalyst tubes represents a particular formulation of shaped catalyst bodies which may consist of only one type of shaped catalyst bodies, only one type of shaped diluent bodies, a mixture of shaped catalyst bodies, a mixture of shaped catalyst bodies and shaped diluent bodies or a mixture of various shaped diluent bodies.
A catalyst tube which has been charged in a structured fashion thus has by definition at least two, frequently three or four, often five or six, or seven or eight to ten or more sections of charge which differ in the formulation of shaped catalyst bodies present therein in respect of their type and/or amount, i.e. are generally not identical.
Uniform charging of catalyst tubes which are charged in such a structured fashion merely requires, firstly, that the same formulation of shaped catalyst bodies which does not fluctuate along the catalyst tube section is present in corresponding catalyst tube sections. However, it also requires, secondly, that identical amounts of the same formulation of shaped catalyst bodies are present in corresponding catalyst tube sections.
To achieve this objective in the case of a multiplicity of (one thousand and more) catalyst tubes (working tubes), use has been made in the prior art of catalyst charging machines which introduce measured portions of the respective formulation of shaped catalyst bodies directly from stock containers containing the formulation into the respective catalyst tube (cf., for example, DE-A 199 34 324, WO 98/14392 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,402,643). The primary type of parameters sought here is a uniform rate of introduction,(i.e. a very constant amount of the respective shaped catalyst body formulation introduced per unit time during charging). The product of introduction rate and introduction time determines the portion introduced, and the dimension of the charged section.
However, the methodology of the prior art has various disadvantages. Firstly, the introduction rate is not completely satisfactorily constant over time, which leads to deviations in the portions introduced. This is because, inter alia, shaped bodies to be introduced are positioned transversely and can thus at times partially block the shaped body outlet of the charging machine. If an individual formulation of shaped catalyst bodies consists of more than one type of shaped body, partial demixing can occur in the stock container, and this ultimately leads to some degree of formulation fluctuations compared to corresponding sections of charge in different catalyst tubes. Even within one and the same section of charge in an individual catalyst tube, formulation fluctuations can result along the section of charge. In addition, the speed of charging achieved is frequently not fully satisfactory. The latter is particularly important because production, viz. the gas-phase reaction, is interrupted during charging of the catalyst tubes.
It was therefore an object of the present invention to provide an improved method of charging catalyst tubes of a bundle of catalyst tubes in a structured fashion.
We have accordingly found a method of charging catalyst tubes of a bundle of catalyst tubes in a structured fashion, in which individual catalyst tubes of the bundle of catalyst tubes are charged in a uniform manner from the bottom upward in sections with different formulations of shaped catalyst bodies, wherein a particular section of the charge in the catalyst tubes is produced by firstly producing uniform portions of the appropriate formulation of shaped catalyst bodies, producing packets filled with a uniform amount of the formulation of shaped catalyst bodies by enclosing such portions in a packaging material and emptying a number of the packets into each of the individual catalyst tubes. This number of packets emptied into one catalyst tube is usually ≧1.
According to the invention, the uniformity interval of the portions is generally (based on the number average of all uniformly produced portions) less than �1% by weight or less than �0.3% by weight, or less than �0.1% by weight, and in favorable cases less than �0.01% by weight. The relative uniformity interval is smaller, the larger the portion present in the individual packet.
The method of the invention is generally applicable to shaped catalyst bodies whose longest dimension L is (significantly) smaller than the internal diameter D of the reaction tubes. However, it is usually of the same order of magnitude as this diameter. The ratio D/L will frequently be from 2:1 or 3:1 to 20:1, or from 4:1 to 10:1.
The amount present in a packet charged with shaped catalyst bodies can advantageously be from 50 g to 5 kg, matched to the desired length of the section of charge and determined beforehand in pouring tests in transparent tubes of appropriate geometry. The amount of a portion will frequently be from 100 g to 3 kg and often from 200 g or 300 g to 2 kg, i.e. the amount can be, for example, 400 g, 600 g, 800 g, 1000 g, 1200 g, 1400 g, 1600 g and 1800 g etc. This generally corresponds to numerically similar charge volumes in l or ml (i.e. in the range from 25 or 50 ml to 5 or 10 l).
According to the invention, the amount in a packet is very particularly preferably such that when it is emptied into a reaction tube it produces all of the desired section of charge in the tube. However, for the purpose of achieving increased homogeneity of the section of charge, the amount corresponding to a portion can also be such that production of a desired section of charge requires more than one (frequently from 2 to 10, often from 2 to 5) packets to be emptied.
Packaging means can be paper bags, bags made of other materials, sacks, boxes, cans, compartments, buckets, crates, baskets, drums, bottles, etc. As packaging material, it is possible to use, depending on the active composition, paper, cardboard, wood, glass, ceramic materials, metals (sheets and foils), plastics, foams, etc. The choice of packaging means and packaging method depends on not only the type of active composition but also on the type of external influences to be expected after packaging, e.g. during storage. For example, heat resistance, insensitivity to shock, opaqueness to light, impermeability to air, impermeability to water vapor, etc., may be required.
For example, it can also be advantageous to package the portions using shrink films which tightly enclose the shaped catalyst bodies packed under reduced pressure and make it possible for packets to be stacked particularly simply. Care should generally be taken to ensure that the packaging material does not adversely affect the catalyst quality by, for example, the packaging material giving off foreign substances such as volatile plasticizers or residual monomers which could occupy and block the catalytically active surface during storage of packets.
Transparent polyethylene (high, low or medium density) is a particularly preferred packaging material according to the invention, especially when the active composition is a multielement oxide, e.g. a multimetal oxide. It is generally advantageous for the moisture (water vapor) permeability of the packaging at 25� C. to be ≦1.0 g m−2d−1 (d=day). For this purpose, it is possible to use, for example, aluminum-coated bags or bags comprising liquid crystal polyester films. Preferred means are bags, in particular when these are made of plastic (e.g. polyethylene) and can be welded shut in an airtight manner.
The production of packets which are charged with a uniform amount of a formulation of shaped catalyst bodies and are to be employed according to the invention can be carried out extremely efficiently and at high speed by means of packaging machines prior to the actual charging procedure. Dispensing machines are particularly advantageous for the method according to the invention. In the case of this subset of packaging machines, the packaging is present in a form which has been preprepared for dispensing (although packaging machines which produce the packaging themselves from, for example, film provided in roll form are frequently used). They comprise as essential components a metering device which divides the material to be charged according to weight or number of pieces, the actual charging unit and a closure unit which, for example, closes the packaging loosely to firmly by twisting, turning, folding, adhesive bonding, welding, by the groove/spring principle or by application of a closure.
If the formulation of shaped catalyst bodies to be introduced according to the invention comprises more than one type of shaped body, the production according to the invention of uniform portions of the formulation is advantageously carried out as follows.
Firstly, each type of shaped body is produced in a large amount and with the greatest possible uniformity.
Uniform portions of each type of shaped body are then produced continuously according to weight or number of pieces by means of a metering apparatus provided for the particular type of shaped body and are tipped onto a conveyor belt provided for the particular type of shaped body. The individual conveyor belts transport the uniform portions of the particular type of shaped body at appropriate rates. The conveyor belts come together at their ends and discharge the desired amount of the particular type of shaped body into the packets. This produces packets whose contents are indistinguishable both in respect of amount and in respect of formulation.
Charging of the catalyst tubes can then be carried out in a simple manner by emptying a number calculated beforehand from the dimensions of the catalyst tubes and the desired length of the section of charge (and determined in pouring experiments on transparent reaction tubes of corresponding geometry) of packets charged with the formulation of shaped catalyst bodies is emptied into the respective catalyst tube. In the method of the invention, the amount packed in an individual packet is always≦(less than equal to) the amount to be introduced into an individual catalyst tube. It will frequently be the case that the same number of packets are emptied into each catalyst tube. According to the invention, the number to be emptied into a catalyst tube is preferably an integer. Since each packet provided for a section of charge contains the same formulation and amount, sections of charge which are particularly uniform over various catalyst tubes can thus be produced in a short time according to the invention.
The simplest way of emptying the packets into the catalyst tubes is manually. However, to empty the packets into the catalyst tubes so as to obtain a very uniform bulk density, emptying can also be carried out by means of an apparatus as described in DE-A 19934324 for charging tubes with loose material. This has a particular number of dispensing tubes which can simultaneously be lowered into the catalyst tubes to be charged. The machine has one stock container per dispensing tube, and this is connected via a pouring port and a transport chute to the respective dispensing tube. By means of an individually operatable metering zone, the stream of loose material discharged from the respective stock container to the transport chute is limited to the desired rate of introduction into the catalyst tubes. Instead of emptying the packets charged according to the invention directly into the respective catalyst tubes, they can also be emptied in succession in accordance with consumption via the respective stock container (the capacity of a stock container preferably corresponds to the contents of a packet or the contents of one or two packets) of the above-described charging apparatus into the respective catalyst tube at a very uniform transport rate. Since the stock container does not contain a large amount of the formulation of shaped catalyst bodies to be charged at any point in time, this naturally counters demixing of the bodies in the stock container and the constancy of the rate of introduction results in a very uniform bulk density. Typical transport rates can be from 500 shaped bodies/minute to 40 000 shaped bodies/minute.
Particularly preferred charging machines have cascades of stock containers which are connected to one another and make essentially continuous implementation of the method of the invention possible.
Above each stock container in such an arrangement there is a second stock container which can be charged with the portion corresponding to one packet before the contents of the stock container underneath have been completely discharged.
The stock containers arranged above one another can also be connected to different dispensing tubes.
The method of the invention is suitable, for example, when the active composition of the shaped catalyst bodies present in a packet is an Mo-, Bi- and Fe-containing multimetal oxide (e.g. an oxide of the general formula II in DE-A 4442346) and/or an Mo- and V-containing multimetal oxide (e.g. an oxide of the general formula I in DE-A 4442346). However, it is also suitable when the active composition of the shaped catalyst bodies present in a packet is a V- and P-containing multielement oxide (e.g. EP-A 302509; e.g. for maleic anhydride production) or a V- and Cs-containing multielement oxide (e.g. EP-A 1084115, EP-A 1117484 or EP-A 1311467; e.g. for the preparation of phthalic anhydride) or an Mo- and P-containing multielement oxide (e.g. DE-A 4329907; e.g. for methacrylic acid production).
The methodology recommended in the present text is particularly useful for the charging of catalyst tubes in sections with the structured catalyst tube charges recommended in the documents EP-A 700893, EP-A 700714, DE-A 10337788, DE-A 10313210, DE-A 10313214, DE-A 10313213, DE-A 10313212, DE-A 10313211, DE-A 10313208, DE-A 10313209 for the heterogeneously catalyzed partial oxidation of propene and/or acrolein to acrylic acid. The packaging material used should be a packaging material which is highly impermeable to water vapor and is welded shut in an airtight manner. The recommendations of JP-A 2003-10695 can be followed for this purpose. If necessary, additional use can be made of the charging aids recommended in DE-A 10337998. This also applies to the charging measures recommended in the prior art cited in the present text.
The method of the invention is impressive both in terms of the high degree of charge uniformity which can be achieved using it and also in terms of the high charging speeds combined with the same charging uniformity which can be realized using it. Both are due in no small measure to the fact that dispensing of portions and charging are decoupled from one another both in space and time. The length of a homogeneous section of charge when the method of the invention is used will typically be from 20 cm to 800 cm, frequently from 50 cm to 200 cm.
According to the invention, it is particularly advantageous to provide the packets containing the same formulation of shaped catalyst bodies with a particular color. After they have been emptied into an individual reaction tube for producing the desired section of charge, the respective reaction tube can then advantageously be closed with a cap of the same color to indicate that the step is complete. This constitutes a very simple way of preventing a reaction tube being charged more than once with one and the same formulation of shaped catalyst bodies. As an alternative, the fill height in the reaction tube can be checked by means of a measuring stick.

Overlooked Films: Ken Maynard in Between Fighting Men (1932)
I've been chugging through the movies on the 50-film collection The Way West and so far I've seen over a dozen of them. (I talked about a few of the films and posted the complete list of titles HERE.)
The movies in this set are mostly from the 30s, and feature a lot of guys I'd heard of - or seen on movie posters - but had never seen on screen. Some are better than expected, some worse, and at least one (to be discussed in a future post) is unbelievably bad.
Ken Maynard was one of the good surprises. He had the look, the personality and the screen presence it took to be a first-rate B-Western star. And Between Fighting Men was a good vehicle to show off those qualities.
The story here is familiar: Sheepmen are moving into cattle country, and the cattle guys are pissed. But it just so happens that the first sheepherder to arrive has a beautiful daughter. And the leading cattle rancher has a skirt-chasing son.
Ken is NOT the son. He's the son's best pal, and top hand at the ranch. One of the good things about this film is that Ken doesn't need a goofy sidekick for comedy relief. Ken and the son provide that themselves, with their good-natured competition for the attention of females. The sheepherder's daughter does cause friction between them, of course, but when the chips are down their friendship proves stronger than the rivalry.
Make no mistake, this is a B-Western cheapie, but it's still mighty dang good entertainment.
Gallop on over to Sweet Freedom for more of today's Overlooked goodies.

Japan's aid guided by clear vision and priorities but should focus on countries and people most in need
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
17/07/2014 - Japan has increased its spending on overseas development assistance (ODA) and is showing more global leadership, but needs to pay more attention to where it is spending the money and increase its focus on results and transparency.
In a new Peer Review of Japan, the OECD's Development Assistance Committee (DAC) commended Japan for increasingly exerting global leadership and influence in areas such as disaster risk reduction and universal health coverage. It has also launched a series of new global initiatives in climate change finance and women's empowerment which should further enhance its influence and impact at the global level.
The Review states that Japan increased its ODA by 36.6% between 2012 and 2013. Japan's net ODA was USD 11.8 billion in 2013. A debt cancellation for Myanmar and increases in bilateral lending were the main reasons for the rise in spending. As a result, its ODA to Gross National Income (GNI) ratio rose to 0.23% from 0.17% in 2012. This means Japan is now the DAC's fourth largest donor in volume terms, yet its ODA ratio remains well below the 0.7% UN target for ODA/GNI.
Japan provides aid to about140 countries. Most (70%) is allocated to middle income Asian countries. Least Developed Countries (LDCs) received about a quarter of Japan's gross bilateral ODA, compared to a DAC average of 41%. The DAC recommends that Japan continue scaling up its support to countries where assistance is most needed, including LDCs, bearing in mind international commitments. It also has recommendations for measuring and monitoring its impact on poverty reduction in all aspects of its co-operation.
"On the 60th anniversary of its development assistance, Japan can take pride in becoming the 4th largest DAC donor and an increasingly effective partner in development," said DAC Chair Erik Solheim. "Japan will be better able to demonstrate its achievements by bringing a sharper results focus to all of its work, including the ability to show how its co-operation is supporting efforts to reduce poverty in the many countries in which it works."
Japan has fully or partially implemented 12 of the 19 recommendations from the DAC's 2010 review. Recommendations not addressed include areas of continuing focus for the DAC, such as the need to reduce the share of tied aid and the need for more flexibility when working in fragile states.
The latest Review also continues to recommend that Japan take a more strategic, better resourced and targeted approach to communications. This would help build better understanding and support among the Japanese people for development assistance. And while the review found increased efforts to improve transparency, Japan will need to do more if it is to comply with transparency commitment by 2015.
Each DAC member is reviewed every 4-5 years as a way to monitor its development co-operation performance, hold it accountable for past commitments and recommend improvements. Led by two DAC members, a review typically takes 6-8 months and uses input from the reviewed country government and officials, and civil society, the private sector and other donors in developing countries. Read more here.
For further information on the review, journalists should contact Rahul Malhotra (tel. + 33 1 45 24 15 07) of the OECD's Development Co-operation Directorate. For any other queries, or to request a copy of the review, journalists should contact the OECD's Media Division (+33 1 45 24 97 00).

VIDEO: Ryan Seacrest Performs with Richard Marx on AMERICAN IDOL Finale
American Idol host
"Right Here Waiting" was also performed by contestant
The Voice performance was the beginning of a big week for
For a preview of the video, go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4ClbmioKkw. Beautiful Goodbye, Marx's first studio album of all new material in 10 years, will be released July 8th by Kobalt Label Services (KLS).
Fans may find Beautiful Goodbye is a bit of a departure from Marx's previous albums. According to Marx, he set out to make a deliberately sexy album. "The songs on this record were influenced greatly by everyone from Sade to Bebel Gilberto to various EDM artists to even Chopin. I'm known for romantic music in the past, but this music I wrote is all more sensual and cinematic, and the lyrics are more adventurous than I've been willing to go in the past."
Every track on the new album also incorporates an orchestral element, and the recording of the tracks was, according to Marx, "a thrill beyond anything I've done in the studio. Singing these songs brought out what I believe are the most effortless vocals of my recording career, so far."
The tracks on Beautiful Goodbye are written and produced by Marx except "Getaway," co-written and produced with
Marx's last album of all new material, My Own Best Enemy, was released in 2004 featuring hits "When You're Gone" and "Ready to Fly." In 2011, he released Stories To Tell, a greatest hits album and in 2012 he released his first Christmas album, Christmas Spirit.
In the last few years Marx has also found time to write for other artists, most recently

The new issue of Nintendo Gamer is on sale now.
Having someone to whisper 'See you later'. It's... nice, isn't it?" Like the previous games in Konami's insanely popular DS dating series, New Love Plus is split into two parts: wooing a high-school student, then keeping her wooed; the thrill of the chase followed by painstaking maintenance. In other words, the first part is the fun part.
The 3DS version is extremely similar to the last two games. The way it all works is the same: taking the role of a schoolboy, you must arrange your daily schedule to bring you into as much contact as possible with one of three girls, and boost certain aspects of your personality according to her tastes.
The girls are the same as in the previous games, too. Nene Anegasaki is a year older than you (and a girl) and is therefore more mature; Manaka Takane is the same age as you and likes sporty boys; and the younger, impossibly shy Rinko Kobayakawa is constantly connected to her iPod, mainlining a diet of British punk and obscure books. We went for Rinko. She's glum, but opens up once you've earnt her trust and shown her that you're smart.
You have 100 days to get a girlfriend or it's game over; we scored Rinko in about 60. Once you've chosen your girl you must resist the flirtations of the others - so when Manaka lost her purse we refused to help her find it lest Rinko found out. While grinding through those 60 days, focusing on our studies and helping out in the library to boost our Intelligence and Sensitivity ratings for Rinko, we got to spend more time together. Soon we were exchanging strangely robotic emails, bumping into one another in the convenience store and walking home together at night. And that's when she came out with the line that melted our heart: "Having someone to whisper 'See you later'. It's... nice, isn't it?"
New Love Plus' core audience is the otaku, the hikikomori (extreme recluse) who never leaves his room to interact with other people and has never had a girlfriend. In Japan, Konami will deliver the game direct to your home, the literal definition of a 'mail-order bride' - as the saying goes on otaku messageboard 2channel, "Who needs real women when you have Love Plus?"
When you've finally won over the object of your affection and gone diving in for the kiss (via a simple tap of the touch screen), it's game over. And then the game really begins. But we'll have more on that side of things in our feature next issue...

November 26, 2014
COLLIER COUNTY, Florida Some residents set up cameras in the back yard of their home near the Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park in Collier County.
What the cameras capture give a glimpse into the secret lives of panthers.
The video was shared with the Florida Fish and Wildlife, which posted it on their Facebook page.
"Under the cover of darkness, a female panther calls for a mate. Her caterwauling lets male panthers know she is ready to mate. Successful with her yowling call, a collared male panther known to us as FP183, answers. They meet, and like most panther couples, they spend a few days together – watch as they navigate the area together at night and in the rain one day.
The end of the video shows the male scratching on a log and making scrapes on the ground. Panthers leave scrapes on the ground and rub their faces on objects to leave their scent and mark their territory.
In this video it appears that FP183 has an injury at the end of his tail. Biologists are not sure what caused the injury but it happened after he found his mate and does not appear life threatening.
Thanks to the homeowners for graciously sharing the wonderful footage they captured!"

Chidambaram says to raise foreigners' bond holding caps - Citi
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India will raise by $5 billion each the caps on foreign institutional investors holding government and corporate bonds, Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said on Tuesday and forecast growth of 6.5-7 percent in the next fiscal year, Citi said in a note.
Foreign investors will be allowed to hold up to $15 billion of government bonds and $25 billion in corporate bonds, the minister was reported to have said during a meeting with investors in Hong Kong.
A one-year lock in period on holding infrastructure bonds will be eliminated, he said.
The meeting was held in the lead up to India's 2013/14 budget on February 28 where new investment and tax guidelines are likely to be announced.
