Abstract: A process and a gasifier for the gasification of solid, moderately flowable biofuel in a downdraft gasifier having an open core and a fixed gasification bed wherein the fuel material and primary air are fed at the top so as from the top and downward to pass a) a drying zone, b) a pyrolysis zone, c) a combustion zone involving flaming pyrolysis to which secondary air is fed, and where the fuel is supported by way of a narrowed portion in the inner cross section of the gasifier, d) a reduction zone, and e) optionally an inactive charcoal zone. The narrowed portion in the flaming pyrolysis zone (c) retains the fuel material through bridging across the opening of the narrowed portion until the material as a result of the partial combustion has been converted into a material having such a flowability that it resumes the downward movement towards the reduction zone. A self-adjustment of the decisive part of the process is obtained thereby ensuring a long-term, stable gasification even in a small gasifier.

Abstract: Le dispositif de cette invention comporte les éléments innovateurs suivants dans chaque mélangeur/sédimentateur : a) agitateurs à turbines aux bords arrondis, b) un module d'agitation à degré décroissant le long de la cascade de mélange, c) un déflecteur à fenêtre centrée dans l'interface du sédimentateur, se trouvant derrière les amortisseurs de flux, d) un déflecteur, centré dans l'interface du sédimentateur, se trouvant derrière le déflecteur à fenêtre. Les éléments précités permettent de mettre en oeuvre un procédé opérationnel inhibant la dispersion secondaire, diminuant la formation de microgouttes, sans affecter le transfert de masse entre les phases. Par conséquent, on obtient une séparation de phases présentant des traînées tellement petites qu'il est possible d'augmenter de manière considérable la qualité du produit et d'obtenir un extrait aqueux ultra pur, tout en réduisant la superficie de sédimentation nécessaire.

Abstract: High-speed reliable parallel data transmission between a computer and a parallel peripheral is provided by a peripheral controller by way of a virtual parallel UART (VPU). The VPU provides a novel parallel interface for higher speed parallel interface operation. The VPU is included in the peripheral controller along with a conventional RS-232 UART. The peripheral-side interface of the peripheral controller provides full bidirectional handshaking with the parallel peripheral. The host-side interface of the peripheral controller provides a legacy serial port compatible interface. Mode information selectively configures operation in either a VPU (parallel) or a UART (serial) mode. Both modes appear identical to software executing on the computer, enabling the use of standard serial I/O drivers without modification, and providing transparent legacy mode compatibility even when the hardware is configured for VPU mode.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing traffic in a network to and from a remote communications device with limited power supply resources. A controller determines the existing power level of the device and uses the determination to control data transmission to and from the device. Data may be transmitted and received by the device by determining the power required to complete a transmission or reception. The controller then determines whether to send the data, redirect the data, cancel the data transmission, or transmit only a portion of the data. The decision is made as to which option to choose based on the amount of power available to complete the data transmission.
