	Retort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In a chemistry laboratory, a retort is a glassware device used for distillation or dry distillation of substances.
		Retorts were widely used by alchemists, and images of retorts appear in many drawings and sketches of their laboratories.
		Before the advent of modern condensers, retorts were used by many prominent chemists, such as Antoine Lavoisier and Jöns Berzelius.

	New Left Review - Julian Stallabrass: Spectacle and Terror
		Retort draw the definition of spectacle broadly, as the colonization of social life by capitalism: it is the submission of ever more facets of human sociality to the âdeadly solicitationsâ of the market.
		Retort write that the result of this configuration is a blend of atavism (wars of religion, overt colonialism) and hyper-modernity: âthe contradictions of military neoliberalism under conditions of spectacleâ.
		Retort argue that the result of the spectacular defeat of 9-11 has been to push the state into actions that are as much governed by spectacle as by material considerations.

	Chapter 3. Modern carbonising retort systems
		The predried wood is lifted to the top of the retort by means of a skip-car or conveyor and is dumped into a double bell gate which allows the wood to enter and yet prevents escape of significant quantities of retort gases.
		The cooling is accomplished by blowing either cool inert or combustible gas into the bottom of the retort and as it rises it extracts the heat from the finished charcoal as it passes down the retort to the discharge gates.
		Where complex retort systems are used for charcoal making the simplest approach is undoubtedly to use the whole of the off-gases as a source of heat for carbonisation and if there is an excess to burn the gases for power or process heat generation.

	Retort Cooking
		Retort cooking technology is similar to traditional canning, which dates back to Napolean's era, when canned foods were first developed.
		Retort technology, which is approved and regulated by the FDA and USDA, takes the basic principals of canning and combines them with modern innovations including high-pressure steam cooking, special airtight packaging and new heat processing technologies.
		Fast Naturals are made in a Retort "tray," but you might see Retort packages in other forms, including a pouch, dish, bowl or cup.

	an unkind reply to RETORT
		RETORT claims that the "original objects" of the theory of the spectacle "were the Watts Riots and the Proletarian Cultural Revolution": but Debord said that "the modern spectacle" was invented by Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia.
		But the worst mistakes RETORT makes are to reduce the SI to Guy Debord, to focus on what Debord wrote in the 1960s (in particular, his 1967 book The Society of the Spectacle), and to ignore virtually everything he wrote in the 1970s and 1980s.
		RETORT's confidence in the truth of what the spectacle has told them is so complete that its members believe that they can tell what the "new terrorists" were thinking.

	Is the Retort Pouch Really Ready to Replace the Metal Can? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The first retort pouch was cello/foil/pliofilm, and while it worked in theory, it failed in practice.
		It seems the main reason for the success of the retort pouch in the tuna market is labor reduction over canning, not some inherent feature of the pouch.
		While all sorts of comments fly around the industry about “huge contracts to the retort pouch in 2003” and “outstanding appreciations,” it still seems to be all hype.

	Retort Packaging — Honeywell Capran®
		Retort is a cooking process that uses heat and pressure to cook food in its sealed package.
		Retort conditions are quite demanding with temperatures typically ranging from 251°F to 270°F. Capran® Emblem™ and Capran® Medallion™ biaxially-oriented nylon films provide the strength, toughness, puncture and burst resistance that enable flexible pouches to withstand the strenuous retort process, shelf life requirements and demanding shipping and handling distribution.
		This reduced retort time results in foods that have superior taste.

		RETORT's confidence in the truth of what the spectacle has told them is so complete that its members believe that they can tell what the "terrorists" were thinking.
		RETORT's worst bit of disinformation concerning Debord's theory is the idea that "the spectacle" and "the State" are two different forms of social control, whereas every reader of The Society of the Spectacle knows that "the spectacle" is what the modern State became during its post-Depression (1939) fusion with the capitalist economy.
		This margin allows the various members of RETORT to remain rooted in traditional politics: reinvigorating and strengthening "the Left" and the antiwar movement;[12] god knows what else (election to the Berkeley City Council?).

	Oilfield Glossary: Term 'retort solids'
		The volume percent (or fraction) of a mud that is not captured in the receiver when performing the water, oil and solids test as prescribed by API, as given in the equation below.
		Retort solids thus include suspended solids, dissolved solids (salts), charred organic materials and volatile materials that do not condense.
		For calculations, retort solids are normally assumed to be only suspended and dissolved solids, as in the equation below.

	OFITE - Retorts
		The Retort provides a method for measuring the percentage (%) of oil and water, and for estimating both suspended and dissolved solids contained in a sample of water-based or oil-based muds and cuttings.
		In a typical test, a known volume of fluid is heated in a retort chamber to vaporize the liquid components.
		For increased accuracy, and for better comparisons between locations, OFITE provides the 50 and 20 ml retorts with digital temperature controllers so that test temperatures may be accurately set by the operator and to minimize the danger of overheating.

	Rotary Retort Furnace Systems for hardening, carbonitriding and carburizing
		The rotary retort furnace is particularly adaptable to controlled atmosphere hardening, carbonitriding, and carburizing operations to 1850°F/1010°C. These furnaces are particularly well suited for the processing of small parts because the rotary conveying action tumbles the parts, breaking up any jams or tangled clumps facilitating more thorough heat treatment of each of the individual part.
		The traditional rotary retort concept is not without problems: improper and uneven loading, jams of parts formed at the charge end that cannot be broken up in the retort, the maintenance of rotary bearing and seals within the heated shell and the loss of controlled atmosphere.
		Cantilevered Cast Retort Design- The cast retort is supported for rotation at only one end, outside of the shell, such that the retort is cantilevered into the shell with the free end extending into the furnace shell.
