 durability of the reforming catalyst material.
In the reforming reactor system according to the invention, the drop catching element is warmed by heat generated in a CO shift reaction stage of the reactor, by the exothermal conversion of CO into CO.sub.2. Thus, drops caught from the gas/vapor mixture can then be evaporated again into the gas/vapor mixture without taking the heat required for this purpose from the gas/vapor mixture which is flowing by. The drop evaporation in the drop catching element is therefore largely independent of the momentary condition of the gas/vapor mixture, and therefore of possible load fluctuations of the system.
In one embodiment of the invention, the drop catching element consists of a heat-conductive metallic nonwoven. When the gas/vapor mixture to be introduced into the reactor and to be reformed passes through the metallic nonwoven, any drops contained in the mixture are retained by the metallic nonwoven. In this case, the metallic nonwoven may act virtually as a buffer in that the drops deposit on it and can then evaporate into the gas/vapor mixture flowing by.
In another embodiment, a supplementary active heat source is assigned to the drop catching element. This ensures a sufficient heat supply to the drop catching element whenever the heat generated in the shift reaction stage is insufficient for this purpose.
Other objects, advantages and novel features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the invention when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the manufacture of glass containers, a defect that is sometimes found which is difficult to detect comprises a generally horizontal check or mirror-like flaw in the wall of the container. It is essential that such defects or flaws be detected even though they be few in number, with respect to the total number of containers being manufactured.
The prior art has employed various types of inspection devices primarily relying on illuminating the defect and then reading the presence of reflected light emitted by the defect. The following U.S. patents all relate to such devices which are satisfactory to a greater or lesser degree in detecting such defects. The patents are:

durability of the reforming catalyst material. 
 In the reforming nuclear reactor arrangement according to the invention, the drop get component is warmed by heat beget in a CO shift key reaction phase of the reactor, by the exothermal conversion of CO into CO.sub.2. therefore, drops caught from the gas / vapor mix can then be evaporated again into the gas / vapor mixture without taking the hotness required for this purpose from the gas / vaporization mixture which is flowing by. The cliff evaporation in the cliff catching element is therefore largely independent of the momentary circumstance of the gas / vapor mixture, and therefore of possible load fluctuation of the system. 
 In one embodiment of the invention, the drop catching element consists of a heat - conductive metallic nonwoven. When the gas / vapor mixture to be precede into the reactor and to be reformed pass through the metallic nonwoven, any drop contained in the mixture are retained by the metallic nonwoven. In this shell, the metallic nonwoven may act virtually as a buffer in that the drops down payment on it and can then evaporate into the gas / vapor mixture flowing by. 
 In another embodiment, a auxiliary active heat source is assigned to the drop catching element. This ensures a sufficient hotness supply to the drop catching element whenever the heat generate in the shift reaction stage is insufficient for this function.
