Bone steaming

Kidney-Yin. It is particularly suitable for conditions where the warm pathogenic factor has invaded the Lower-Jiao and the Qi and Yin of the body are severely impaired. These features manifest as evening fever, low-grade fever, warm palms and bone steaming. 

Fever that starts in the night and recedes in the morning without sweating, or lingering low-grade fever, bone steaming, tiredness. 

Di Gu Pi is sweet and cold, and enters the Lung, Liver and Kidney meridians. It can reduce deficient heat, especially when heat has consumed the Liver-Yin and Kidney-Yin. These patients have fever in the night, bone steaming, night sweats and irritability. It is often used for treating chronic low-grade fever. 

Gui Ban is salty, sweet and cold, and enters the Kidney and Heart meridians. It nourishes the Yin and strengthens the Kidney, tonifies the blood and calms the mind. It is used when the Yin, essence and blood in the Lower-Jiao are severely injured. It can also reduce the heat and treat bone steaming due to Yin deficiency in warm-febrile disease. Its function of tonifying the Yin is stronger than its function of reducing deficient heat. 

This formula is able to reduce deficient heat and is used at the late stage of warm-febrile diseases when there is chronic low-grade fever, bone steaming, irritability and lethargy due to Yin deficiency of the Kidney and Liver with deficient heat. 

Zhi Mu, Di Gu Pi and Zhi Bie Jia serve as deputies they are able to nourish the Yin and reduce the deficient heat. Since they all enter the Kidney meridian, they can also effectively reduce the bone steaming. Qing Hao and Qin Jiao also serve as deputies they are effective at dispersing the Qi and venting the heat. 

In this formula, although the methods of nourishing and reducing are used together, it focuses on reducing the deficient fire so as to effectively treat the symptom of bone steaming. 

Night sweats, bone steaming, low-grade fever. 

Yin deficiency with excess fire and empty-fire may cause night sweats, bone steaming, low-grade fever, restlessness, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, bleeding gums and spermatorrhea. 

Bie Jia is salty and cold, and enters the Liver meridians. It is able to nourish the Yin and reduce empty-heat, and is particularly selected in the formula to treat severe warm palms and soles, bone steaming and night sweats due to severe Yin deficiency with ascending of the Yang and heat of the Liver. As use of this substance is now forbidden, a substitute is recommended. 

Aching of knees and heels, warm palms and soles, bone steaming, emaciation, night sweats, constipation, insomnia, menorrhagia, polymenorrhea, spermatorrhea. 

Yin deficiency often causes empty-fire. In a severe condition, the fire may ascend and overstimulate the body fluids, essence and blood, resulting in bone steaming, hot flushes, warm palms and soles, insomnia, menorrhagia, polymenorrhea or spermatorrhea. The empty-heat may quickly consume the essence of the body and lead to loss of weight and emaciation. 

This formula is used to treat a syndrome of Kidney-Yin deficiency with empty-fire. The patient suffers from bone steaming, afternoon fever, night sweats, spontaneous emissions, weakness of the back and knees, and irritability. A red tongue without coating and a rapid, forceful pulse in the Kidney positions are often found. 

Zhi Mu and Huang Bai also act as deputies. They can directly clear the heat, reduce the empty-fire in the Lower-Jiao and directly relieve bone steaming, afternoon fever and night sweats. 

Trembling fingers, dizziness, bone steaming, warm palms and soles in severe conditions there may be muscular spasms or rigid extremities, even loss of consciousness. 

The "Medical Treatments for 52 Diseases" (on the left) were written on silk fabric and in part also on small bamboo strips. With its 9,950 characters, this is the most extensive medical text found in ancient Chinese tombs. -Ge Hong s 16th recipe In part Nr. 3 of his four-volume corpus Zhou hou be Jl fang (on the right) describes the preparation of extracts from qinghao to treat "heat vexation" and (intermittent) "bone-steaming" fevers (nue, Malaria).

In addition to the alfalfa hay, the cows received a grain ration which consisted of a mixture of 80% barley and 20% molasses dried beet pulp, to which were added 2% steam bone meal and 1% fine hay salt (sodium chloride). This ration was fed at the rate of 0.75 pound of grain per day for each pound of butterfat produced during the previous week. If the butterfat production dropped below 0.8 pound per day, the grain ration was routinely discontinued. 

Fig. 15. Comparison of a water suppressed muscle spectrum and a spectrum from yellow bone marrow containing almost pure fat (triglycerides). Measurement parameters STEAM sequence, TE=10 ms, TM=15 ms, TR = 2 s, 40 acq., VOI (11 X 11 X 20) mm. (a) Spectrum from TA muscle recorded after careful positioning of the VOI, avoiding inclusion of macroscopic fatty septa allows separation of extramyocellular (EMCL, broken lines) and intramyocellular lipid signals (IMCL, dotted lines) based on susceptibility differences. For this reason characteristic signals from fatty acids occur double. Signals of creatine (methyl, Crs, and methylene, Cr2) show triplet and doublet structure, respectively, due to dipolar coupling effects. Further signals of TMA (including carnitine and choline compartments), Taurine (Tau), esters, unsaturated fatty acids (-HC=CH-), and residual water are indicated, (b) Spectrum from yellow fatty bone marrow of the tibia with identical measuring parameters, but different amplitude scale.

Activated carbon is produced by destructive distillation of carbonaceous substances, such as wood, bones, and nut shells. The carbon obtained from distillation is then heated to 800-900°C with steam or carbon dioxide.

The maximum temperature that can be used for regeneration is limited by the thermal stability of the catalyst. Figure 9 shows the temperature stability of natural and synthetic catalysts in bone-dry air. In commercial units these catalysts are regenerated at substantially lower temperature because the presence of steam reduces the thermal stability limit. The steam is produced from the combustion of the hydrogen in the coke deposit on the catalyst.
