Patent CA-2675063-A1 (CA)
Title: Controlled freeze zone tower
Inventor: FIELER ELEANOR R
IPC: F25J3/00
Filed: 2007-11-20
Abstract: A cryogenic distillation tower is provided for the separation of a fluid stream containing at least methane and carbon dioxide. The cryogenic distillation tower has a lower stripping section, an upper rectification section, and an intermediate spray section. The intermediate spray section includes a plurality of spray nozzles that inject a liquid freeze zone stream. The nozzles are configured such that substantial liquid coverage is provided across the inner diameter of the intermediate spray section. The liquid freeze zone stream generally includes methane at a temperature and pressure whereby both solid carbon dioxide particles and a methane-enriched vapor stream are formed. The tower may further include one or more baffles below the nozzles to create frictional resistance to the gravitational flow of the liquid freeze zone stream. This aids in the breakout and recovery of methane gas. Additional internal components are provided to improve heat transfer and to facilitate the breakout of methane gas.

Title: Plant having increased yield of seeds
Inventor: IWASAKI AYA
IPC: A01H5/00
Filed: 2008-01-15
Abstract: It is found that a transformed plant having a .gamma.-glutamylcysteine synthetase gene introduced therein is increased in at least one of the number of flowers and the number of seeds compared to its wild-type one and is therefore increased in the yield of seeds. Based on this finding, it is possible to elucidate the function of a product of a plant-derived .gamma.-glutamylcysteine synthetase gene and to provide a technique for producing a plant having increased yield of seeds.
Patent CA-2676183-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MONTOJO JUAN
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2008-02-14
Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate utilizing power control preambles with closed loop power control techniques in a wireless communication environment. An uplink grant can be transferred over a downlink (e.g., a first uplink grant after uplink inactivity), and a power control preamble can be sent over an uplink in response to the uplink grant. According to an example, transmission of the power control preamble can be explicitly scheduled and/or implicitly scheduled. The power control preamble can be transmitted at a power level determined by an access terminal utilizing an open loop power control mechanism. A base station can analyze the power control preamble and generate a power control command based thereupon to correct the power level employed by the access terminal. The access terminal can thereafter utilize the power control command to adjust the power level for uplink data transmission.

IPC: D21C11/06

Abstract: Steam stripper off gas from chemical pulp mills, for example kraft or sulphite pulp mills is rich in methanol and totally reduced sulphur (TRS) compounds.  This gaseous stream is usually burned to avoid further handling of this TRS-rich, odorous stream. We found that once this gaseous stream is condensed, it can be used as a reducing agent in the chlorine dioxide generator, in place of purchased methanol. Surprisingly, we found that, in addition to the methanol component, the TRS components act as reducing agents during the production of chlorine dioxide or, at the very least, do not consume chlorine dioxide.  The use of this stream in the CIO2 generator will allow pulp mills to reduce or eliminate the consumption of purchased methanol while providing a new approach to deal with TRS compounds in the chlorine dioxide generator rather than employing a dedicated TRS incinerator or any other combustion device.
