The invention relates to a deep dehydration pretreatment process for landfill sludge. The deep dehydration pretreatment process comprises the following steps of (1) performing viscosity measurement onexcess sludge of a sewage treatment plant to obtain a sludge viscosity standard range; (2) diluting to-be-treated landfill sludge based on the sludge viscosity standard range obtained in step (1), then measuring the viscosity of the to-be-treated landfill sludge so that the viscosity of the diluted landfill sludge is within the sludge viscosity standard range and is smaller than a maximum value of the sludge viscosity standard range; and (3) adding a chemical conditioning agent to the diluted landfill sludge, conditioning and then dehydrating the diluted landfill sludge to obtain the deep dehydration pretreatment sludge having a water content of less than 60%, and recycling the sludge dehydration liquid for diluting the landfill sludge. Compared with the prior art, the deep dehydration pretreatment process for the landfill sludge effectively reduces the generation of the dehydration liquid and maximizes the effect of the medicament by using the sludge viscosity as a reference for thelandfill sludge dilution degree, and fills in the gap of the technical field of pretreatment before conditioning of the landfill sludge.

A hydrophobic compound is dissolved into an organic solvent as an organic phase, the organic phase, as more than one strand of liquid, and more than one strand of a water phase flow in a jet manner in a multi-inlet mixer cavity for continuous mixing to obtain mixed liquid, the mixed liquid flowing out of the cavity is continuously and circularly flown in the jet manner to return into the multi-inlet mixer cavity, and is then mixed with the organic phase and the water phase again, and the mixed liquid flowsout of a multi-inlet mixer until dispersion liquid with preset concentration is obtained, so that the nanoscale dispersion liquid is obtained. Nanoscale particles are quickly mixed and formed insidethe cavity once, the process of secondary particle formation caused by the fact that secondary attenuation mixing further needs to be carried out with a hydrophilic phase after flowing out of the cavity is avoided, and the particle size, distribution and stability of the dispersion liquid are improved; sufficiently large proportion water content and degree of supersaturation can be provided duringmixing through the application of recycle mixing, instantly uniform formation of particles is guaranteed, and meanwhile, the dispersion liquid is avoided from being excessively diluted due to an overlarge water proportion.

The invention is a detergent solution for cleaning a receptacle for milk or liquid milk-derived products, the detergent solution comprising water, one or more types of surfactant and an odour absorbing compound. The surfactants are provided to dissolve greasy milk-based residues from the receptacle and the odour absorbing compound is provided to neutralise odours produced by any remaining milk-based residues not removed by the surfactants. The detergent solution is water-based so that it can be rinsed off easily in a sink in the home. The detergent solution is particularly suited to plastic receptacles because plastic is more prone to accumulating mal-odour producing bacteria. This is because a plastic surface is more porous than glass so it is more difficult to remove greasy residues from a plastic surface and therefore grease can build up in the pores, out of the reach of surfactants, and provide a place for odour-producing bacteria to grow. An odour absorbing compound does not remove the residue but can neutralise the odours from the residue. The invention also discloses a method for dispensing a detergent solution comprising at least one surfactant, the method comprising ejecting detergent solution from a reservoir in the form of a spray, wherein the surfactant is present in the detergent solution in an amount of from 3% to 15% by weight of the detergent solution. The invention discloses also a method of cleaning a receptacle for milk, or liquid milk-derived products, the method comprising: spraying a detergent solution comprising at least one surfactant onto the receptacle, wherein the surfactant is present in the detergent solution in an amount of from 3% to 15% by weight of the detergent solution.

Adjustable articulated air-cooled copper welding shoes, capable of being controlled between 800 to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit during Electroslag welding operations, result in faster welds, smaller heat affected zone in the workpieces welded, and less base metal dilution.

Opposing, paired and positionally adjustable serrated water-cooled copper welding shoes, run-off tabs, and sumps affixed at the junction of workpieces to be welded with an Electroslag or Electrogas welding system. The serrated water-cooled copper welding shoes are capable of being controlled between 150 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, and the welding flux plating over the serrations reduces over-chill to the molten weld puddle while also reducing the amount of heat that the serrated water-cooled shoe removes from the surface of the work piece. This reduction in base material heat allows the welding operator to reduce the weld voltage to dramatically decrease the size of the weld nugget and, in turn, to decrease the heat input from the welding process into the work piece. These significant thermo-dynamic improvements to the Electroslag or Electrogas welding process provide a smaller weld grain structure and much stronger bond in the weld fusion zone.
