A first coating rod placed on an upper-surface side of a resin film is pressed onto the resin film in a state where the first coating rod is circumscribed and supported by support members each comprising a pair of rollers and spaced with intervals therebetween in a length direction of the first coating rod so that the first coating rod is rotated in a forward direction at a speed substantially equal to that of the resin film, and a lower surface of the resin film is supported by a guide roll or a second coating rod placed on a downstream side of the first coating rod and an upstream side of a tenter so that the coating liquid continuously measured and supplied to an upper surface of the resin film is smoothened by the first coating rod.

An apparatus for the continuous recovery of organic or inorganic solvent from a waste gas containing the solvent, which comprises an adsorption unit for causing the solvent present in the waste gas to be adsorbed on an activated carbon and a regeneration unit for simultaneously effecting the recovery of the adsorbed solvent and the regeneration of the activated carbon, characterized in that a moisture-desorption unit is interposed between the two units mentioned above, whereby the water content of the recovered solvent is kept down below 1%.

Apparatus for continuous recovery of solvent

A process for preparing a biaxially stretched film of a polyamide blend, which comprises (1) melt extruding a polyamide blend to make an unstretched film and (2) stretching the unstretched film first in the machine direction and then in the transverse direction, or (2') stretching the unstretched film first to make a uniaxially stretched film having a plane orientation index of about 0.6 to 1.7 and then stretching the uniaxially stretched film in a direction substantially at a right angle to the direction at the previous stretching, said polyamide blend comprising 97 to 80% by weight of an .alpha.-type aliphatic polyamide (Component A) and 3 to 20% by weight of at least one polyamide (Component B) selected from the group consisting of (i) an .alpha.-type aliphatic polyamide different from the Component A, (ii) a .gamma.-type aliphatic polyamide, (iii) a non-crystalline aliphatic polyamide, and (iv) a ring-containing polyamide which contains in the molecule 0 to 50 mol % of repeating units comprising a xylylenediamine residue.

Production of biaxially stretched film of polyamide blend

Microporous pitch spheres prepared from pitch are oxidized at a temperature of from 100.degree. C to 500.degree. C in an atmosphere of an oxidative gas to produce pitch spheres containing not less than 10% by weight of combined oxygen. Then the combined oxygen-containing pitch spheres are heated at a temperature of from 150.degree. C to 700.degree. C in an atmosphere of ammonia gas to produce pitch spheres containing not less than 1.5% by weight combined nitrogen. The resultant pitch spheres are subsequently activated by a conventional method to produce activated carbon spheres containing more than 1% by weight of combined nitrogen.

Process for production of activated carbon spheres
