Apparatus for classifying high purity polysilicon particles includes a receptacle for holding the particles and a rotary member for feeding the particles from the receptacle. The rotary member defines at least a portion of a front wall of the receptacle and is supported for rotation about its generally horizontally oriented longitudinal axis. A motor drives rotation of the rotary member such that a longitudinal groove passes through the receptacle to pick up particles smaller than a predetermined size and dump the captured particles onto an inclined surface disposed generally forward of the receptacle. The particles slide downwardly acquiring a velocity according to their shape. A gap between a lower edge of the inclined surface and a first receiver is sized such that only particles having more than a predetermined velocity are capable of traversing the gap to the first receiver. The remaining particles fall through the gap and into a second receiver. The receptacle, inclined surface member and first receiver are constructed with contamination inhibiting material to inhibit contamination of the particles.

This invention relates to a process and apparatus for repairing a port of a vessel, the port having an inside surface which is damaged. The method and apparatus utilize a liner means for lining the inner surface of the port, a sealed chamber between the lining means and the inner surface of the vessel port, a means of using a gas, preferably an inert gas, to purge the sealed chamber, and a means of monitoring the gas which is purged from the chamber.

An improved valve of the flapper plate type is disclosed, the valve comprising at least one flexible member for connecting the flapper plate and the arm actuating the flapper. The flexible member absorbs impact energy and allows restricted three dimensional movement of the flapper plate. The seals for the flapper plate and the seat comprise electrically conductive sealing materials.
