Title: Wave power
Inventor: HINE ROGER G
IPC: B63H19/02
Filed: 2012-08-09
Granted: 2014-06-26
Abstract: Abstract A wave-powered water vehicle includes a surface float (11), a submerged swimmer (21), and a tether (31) which connects the float and the swimmer, so that the swimmer moves up and down as a result of wave motion. The swimmer (21) includes one or more fins (213, 214) which interact with the water as the swimmer moves up and down, and generate forces which propel the vehicle forward. The vehicle, which need not be manned, can carry communication and control equipment so that it can follow a course directed by signals sent to it, and so that it can record or transmit data from sensors on the vehicle.

Title: Improved biocontrol through the use of chlorine-stabilizer blends
Inventor: RICE LAURA E
IPC: A61L2/06
Filed: 2012-10-12
Granted: 2015-09-10
Abstract: A composition and methods of its use, the composition comprising: a halogen source, urea, and an additional halogen stabilizer excluding urea, optionally an alkali in a concentration sufficient to provide said composition with a pH of greater than 10; and optionally excluding a stabilized bromine compound from said composition is disclosed. Additionally, a method for reducing biological activity in a process stream is disclosed. The method comprises: providing a composition to a process stream, wherein said composition contains: a halogen, urea, and an additional halogen stabilizer excluding urea, optionally an alkali in a concentration sufficient to provide said composition with a pH of greater than 10; and optionally excluding a stabilized bromine compound from said composition. The invention is also directed to compositions and methods of their use as effective biocidal agents for water streams. The composition comprises a halogen source, halogen stabilizers containing a sulfur bearing species and ammonium salts/urea, and an alkali. The sulfur bearing species includes sulfamic acid or its salt equivalent. The ratio between nitrogen mixture of sulfur bearing species and ammonium salts or urea can be optimized at any rate. By having optimized mixing ratio of halogen to stabilizer and that of ammonium salts to sulfamic acid or sulfamate, a synergistic effect occurs which both increases the efficacy of the composition as a biocide and it avoids adverse impacts on other chemicals that are present in the water stream (such as paper additives in pulp and papermaking water streams). Best of all the composition is easy to form and easy to introduce into a water stream of concern. Its introduction can be as simple as mixing two containers of reagent prior to introduction to the water process stream.

Title: Refrigerating Device
Inventor: NAKAI AKINORI
IPC: F25B49/02
Filed: 2013-04-30
Granted: 2015-12-24
Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a highly-reliable refrigeration device wherein appropriate protection control is reliably carried out even if a compressor is running when the temperature of a refrigerant is measured at the outside of the compressor and protection control is carried out on the basis of said temperature. An air-conditioning device (1) is provided with a compressor (31) for compressing a refrigerant, a discharge pipe temperature sensor (51), and a protection control part (41c). The discharge pipe temperature sensor detects the temperature of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor at the outside of the compressor. The protection control part determines the transient time which is after the compressor was actuated and a steady time which is after the transient time is completed and in which the state of the refrigerant is stabilized. During the transient time, the protection control part carries out protection control of the compressor when the discharge pipe temperature detected by means of the discharge pipe temperature sensor surpasses a first determination temperature. Meanwhile, during the steady time, the protection control part carries out protection control of the compressor when the discharge pipe temperature surpasses a second determination temperature.

Title: Pretreating biomass using steam explosion before gasification
Inventor: AMPULSKI ROBERT S
IPC: C08J3/12
Filed: 2013-06-04
Granted: 2016-02-04
Abstract: An integrated plant that includes a steam explosion process unit and biomass gasifier to generate syngas from biomass. A steam explosion process unit applies a combination of heat, pressure, and moisture to the biomass to make the biomass into a moist fine particle form. The steam explosion process unit applies steam with a high pressure to heat and pressurize any gases and fluids present inside the biomass to internally blow apart the bulk structure of the biomass via a rapid depressurization of the biomass with the increased moisture content. Those produced moist fine particles of biomass are subsequently fed to a feed section of the biomass gasifier, which reacts the biomass particles in a rapid biomass gasification reaction to produce syngas components.
