          30.       The apparatus according to claim 29 wherein said at               
          least one controlling device is capable of passing cleaning                 
          agent to one or more of said selected groups with a flow which              
          differs from the flow of cleaning agent, if any, to one or                  
          more other groups among said at least two groups.

          said at least one measuring device includes at least one                    
          pressure measuring device capable of measuring the respective               
          pressure or pressures of gas flowing through at least one                   
          selected group among said at least two groups, and said at                  
          least one controlling device is capable of controlling flow of              
          cleaning agent to one or more of said selected groups in                    
          response to measurements made by said measuring device.                     
          32.       The apparatus according to claim 23 wherein said                  
          sealing means, retaining means and plenums jointly restrain                 
          vertical movement of said diffusion elements.
