Abstract: A system for constructing log structures includes a corner connection structure, a through-bolt clamping apparatus, an opening support structure, a butt joint connection structure, a log profile, and an exterior casing structure. The corner connection structure has overlap portions that are alternately interlaced with each other, a generally vertical slot extending through the overlap portions of the logs; and at least one spline provided in the slot. The spline can have a locking rib, and the slot can have a corresponding transversely extending rib recess for receiving the locking rib. The through-bolt clamping apparatus has a through-bolt extending along the height of the wall, a lower clamp arm coupled to the through-bolt and the bottom of the intersecting walls, and an upper clamp arm coupled to the through bolt and the top of the intersecting walls. The opening support structure has connectors positioned within the wall adjacent the opening for connecting vertically adjacent logs together, the connectors having a connector body with lower and upper log engagement portions, which engage vertically adjacent logs. The butt joint connection structure has a generally vertical spline slot extending across the seam between the end faces of the first and the second logs, and a spline adapted to fit into the spline slot, a plurality of vertically oriented recesses in the spline, and fasteners provided in each recess.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for the preferential conversion to 2-butene of a stream containing C4 compounds including 1-butene and 2-butene. The process involves mixing the C4 stream with a first hydrogen stream to form a feed stream, hydroisomerizing the feed stream in the presence of a first hydroisomerization catalyst in order to convert at least a portion of the 1-butene to 2-butene, thereby producing a hydroisomerization effluent, passing the hydroisomerization effluent through a fractionation column to form a top stream comprising isobutane and isobutylene and a bottoms stream comprising 2-butene, withdrawing a recycle stream from said fractionation column at a location above the feed point at which the weight ratio of 1-butene to 2-butene is high, and combining the recycle stream with at least one of the C4 stream and the feed stream upstream from the hydroisomerization catalyst. A  corresponding apparatus also is disclosed.

Title: Method and apparatus for stimulating heavy oil production
Inventor: NENNIGER JOHN
IPC: E21B43/25
Filed: 2000-02-23
Granted: 2012-09-25
Abstract: A method of enhanced oil recovery having a number of steps. One step is to establish a flow path between an injection well and a production well. Then a solvent is heated, under pressure, until the condensation temperature of the solvent vapour is above the naturally occurring formation temperature. Then, the solvent is injected, under pressure, into the formation where it is permitted to condense. Then, the latent heat of condensation, together with warm solvent reduce the viscosity of the insitu hydrocarbon, while precipitating out asphaltenes. The reduced viscosity solvent/heavy oil blend is then recovered.

Abstract: A set of methods and apparatus for efficiently pressurizing and ventilating an air- supported greenhouse or other structure requiring pressurization and ventilation. A method for efficiently pressurizing and ventilating an air-supported structure comprises directing any external wind flow and external wind pressure into mechanical flow means, such as a fan, or fans in parallel, operating in the intake direction, and into the internal space of the air-supported structure and out of the internal space of the air-supported structure through internal pressure regulating exhaust means, whereby the internal space of the structure will be ventilated and pressurized with the assistance of any external wind and the reliability of mechanical flow means (fans). This method allows for the efficient, effective, and economical cooling, through ventilation, of a protected space created by a light permeable membrane (cover), which is supported only by internal air pressure against the weight of the membrane and dynamic pressures of the external wind, itself. Apparatus for directing any external wind flow and external wind pressure into mechanical flow means are disclosed. Methods and apparatus for internal pressure regulation are also disclosed. Some benefits are less power consumption, minimal internal static pressure (just enough to overcome the external wind), less potential film breakage (than conventional frame- supported poly greenhouses), more light transmission, less cost, and more portability.
