A highly efficient and safe N-cyanation and N-phosphorylation reagent for the de novo synthesis of pharmaceutically acceptable cyclocreatine and salts was achieved using trichloroacetonitrile in lieu of highly toxic cyanogen bromide (CNBr) for generating the required cyclocreatine (CCr) intermediates, followed by highly effective N-phosphorylation through pH control using phosphoryl chloride with high conversion to the corresponding cyclocreatine phosphate (CCrP) targets. A continuous flow reactor system was engineered to improve the efficiency of the process and deliver a product with improved yield, safety, and cost efficiency.

What is provided is stannous oxide having an ?-ray emission amount of 0.002 cph/cm.sup.2 or less after heating in an atmosphere at 100? C. for 6 hours. Tin containing lead as an impurity is dissolved in a sulfuric acid aqueous solution to prepare a tin sulfate aqueous solution, and lead sulfate is precipitated in the aqueous solution and removed. While stirring the tin sulfate aqueous solution from which lead sulfate has been removed, a lead nitrate aqueous solution containing lead having an ?-ray emission amount of 10 cph/cm.sup.2 or less is added to cause lead sulfate to be precipitated in the tin sulfate aqueous solution, and simultaneously the tin sulfate aqueous solution is circulated while removing the lead sulfate from the aqueous solution. A neutralizing agent is added to the tin sulfate aqueous solution to collect stannous oxide.

The asbestos waste neutralization device (10) comprises: an acid tank (23), a vat (16) containing a diluted acid solution, in which waste containing asbestos is dipped, with this solution neutralizing the asbestos waste, a filtration unit (21) to separate, at the end of the neutralization reaction, the solid inert waste from the liquid phase of the acid solution, a regeneration unit (22) for the attacking acid solution, which adjusts the hydrogen potential of the extracted liquid phase by adding concentrated acid contained in the acid reservoir, and means for transferring the regenerated solution into the vat.

A plant and a method for producing decarbonized oxide or hydroxide using carbonate, water and electric power. The plant includes an electric calciner, a contactor, a pH correction apparatus, and a dosing device. The plant is adapted to receive at the inlet electric power, carbonate and water, and to release at the outlet decarbonized oxide or hydroxide and a buffered ionic mixture rich in bicarbonates, which, once released into the sea, represents the permanent storage for CO.sub.2. The plant uses the bicarbonates as permanent CO.sub.2 storage in the sea: this storage allows a CO.sub.2 storage at low costs and in modular plants.

In a method for the hydrolysis of liquid, organic substrates (1), the substrate to be hydrolysed is introduced into a circulation loop for heating, where an equal amount of hydrolysed substrate (1) is displaced from the circulation loop (6, 7, 8, 9). An appropriate system can have a circulation loop, a feed device, a circulation pump for generating a circulation flow in the circulation loop, and a heater for heating and reheating the circulation flow.

A method of manufacturing a dry solid comprising a hypochlorite and a chlorite may include preparing a solution comprising a hypochlorite ion, a chlorate ion, and a chloride ion; a first reaction step for adding sulfuric acid to the solution to generate chlorine gas; reacting the generated chlorine gas with sodium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide and recovering a reaction product as a hypochlorite ion in recovery liquid A; a second reaction step for adding sulfuric acid to a reaction mother liquor after the first reaction step at a concentration that is higher than that in the first reaction step to generate chlorine dioxide gas; reacting the generated chlorine dioxide gas with sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide and recovering a reaction product as a chlorite ion in recovery liquid B; mixing recovery liquid A with recovery liquid B; and drying and solidifying the resulting mixture.
