The method of filling a weighing container (10) for plastics granulate (12), wherein the granulate is dropped from a supply tube (26) into the weighing container (10) via a shutter (22), wherein the weighing container (10) is closed-off on the top side by a wall having a conical part (16) that reaches directly up the shutter (22), and in that the weighing container is filled with granulate up to the level of the shutter (22).

The invention relates to a valve bag, in particular a cross-bottom valve bag, comprising a first wall and a second wall, which are joined to each other by means of side edges or side folds and by means of bottoms and which delimit a bag interior, comprising a valve, which is arranged in one of the bottoms and via which the bag interior can be filled with a filling material, and comprising venting openings in the first and/or in the second wall for venting the bag interior. At least one channel is provided on the outside of at least one wall, which channel covers the venting openings and is formed at least by two parallel fastening strips and by a cover strip, the cover strip likewise comprising venting openings, and wherein the shortest path between the parallel fastening strips along the cover strip is longer than the shortest path along the at least one wall or the cover strip, and/or the parallel fastening strips consist of stretchable material.

The invention relates to a plastic bag, in particular an FFS bag, comprising a first wall and a second wall, which are joined to each other by means of side edges or side folds and by means of bottoms and which bound a bag interior, wherein at least one bottom comprises a weld seam, which extends between the side edges and touches the side edges, and venting openings in the first and/or in the second wall for venting the bag interior, characterized in that at least one channel is provided on the outside of at least one wall, which channel covers the venting openings and is formed by at least two parallel fastening strips and by a cover strip, wherein the cover strip likewise comprises venting openings and wherein the shortest path between the parallel fastening strips along the cover strip is longer than the shortest path along the at least one wall between the parallel fastening strips or the cover strip and/or the parallel fastening strips consist of stretchable material.

Systems and methods for processing pyrolyzable materials in order to recover one or more usable end products are provided. Pyrolysis methods and systems according to various aspects of the present invention are able to thermally decompose carbon-containing materials, including, for example, tires and other rubber-containing materials, in order recover hydrocarbon-containing products including synthesis gas, pyrolysis oil, and carbon black. Systems and methods according to aspects of the present invention may be successful on a commercial scale, and may be suitable for processing a variety of feedstock including, but not limited to, used tires and other types of industrial, agricultural, and consumer waste materials.

What is presented is an interface between a hopper and a dust receptacle of a dust collector system, wherein the hopper has an outlet through which collected dust drops. A slide gate is mounted to the outlet of the hopper and a spout is mounted to the slide gate. A lid is configured to secure to the top of the dust receptacle. The lid has a coupling configured to secure to the spout. A slot comprising a locking feature is located on either the spout or the coupling. A rod corresponding to the slot is mounted to the other of the spout or the coupling than which the slot is located. The lid may be removed from the dust receptacle by lifting the lid to move the rod through the slot and the lid is secured by twisting the coupling relative to the spout to move the rod into the locking feature.

The present disclosure is directed to a big-bag transfer station for API seed crystals. The transfer station may permit the filling of smaller containers, such as bags or pouches, from a large container, such as a big bag. The transfer station may permit the transfer without contaminating the atmosphere of the room in which the station is housed. Additionally, the transfer station may limit cross-contamination between filling cycles by employing single-use liners.
