Patent WO-9004656-A1 (WO)
Inventor: HOLLITT MICHAEL JOHN
IPC: C22B34/32
Filed: 1989-10-24
Abstract: La présence  de chromite en quantité notable dans de l'ilménite diminue la valeur commerciale de l'ilménite. Une quantité substantielle de chromite doit être extraite, premièrement par une étape de réduction, deuxièmement par une étape de lessivage, d'aérage ou de grillage par oxydation et enfin par une étape de séparation physique. Une pré-oxydation éventuelle peut précéder l'étape de réduction et une étape de séparation physique éventuelle peut être intercalée entre la première et la deuxième étape. La première étape est une réduction à l'état solide à une température supérieure à 1000°C et comprise entre 1000 et 1300°C, avec du coke, du charbon, des combustibles gazeux, tels que du gaz naturel/de pétrole, ou des combustibles liquides tels que des huiles ou leurs produits. Divers additifs, tels que des sels de métal alcalin, des chlorures ou des composés de magnésium ou de manganèse, peuvent être ajoutés pour améliorer la séparation des particules métalliques réduites (Fe, Cr). La réduction peut être effectuée dans des fours à lit fluidisé ou à fourneau rotatif. La seconde étape est de préférence une attaque par acide/sel ferreux-ferrique dilué et aéré ou par oxydation, un aérage aqueux en présence d'un activateur ou un grillage par oxydation thermique. L'aérage aqueux, qui est utilisé dans cette invention, consiste à effectuer un écumage pendant 5 à 16 heures, en fonction de la qualité du produit fini demandée, avec une forte agitation en présence de chlorure d'ammonium en faibles concentrations (par exemple 0,5 à 1,0 %). Les agents activants sont choisis parmi des chlorures de sodium ou de fer, des sels et des acides organiques. L'étape de séparation physique finale est habituellement une séparation magnétique, qui extrait efficacement le chrome du titane. Une séparation magnétique peut également être intercalée après l'étape de réduction à l'état solide, avant l'étape d'aérage. Un tel procédé permet d'obtenir une récupération de plus de 80 % de la teneur en TiO2 et l'extraction d'environ deux-tiers de la teneur en Cr2O3.

Title: Method for tobacco drying
Inventor: DRAGIEV DRAGOMIR I
IPC: A24B3/04
Filed: 1990-12-29
Abstract: The method curtails the drying process through intensification of the very drying process of tobacco drying - the fixation flower, drying of the lamellae and the leaves' central nerve phases, which attains savings in drying capacity and power. The method may be applied with all tobacco varieties, upon weather and artificial drying and within the existing drying facilities. It relies on the fact that the preliminarily yellowed to a certain degree leaves are cut into tapes or fibres, which are then subject to the very drying into a loose mass. With the broad-leaf tobacco and such with thick central nerve of the leaf before and during the cutting, the nerves are removed.

Title: Method and apparatus for digitizing an image
Inventor: NADLER MORTON
IPC: H04N1/403
Filed: 1989-12-01
Abstract: ABSTRACT          An improved method and apparatus for digitizing scanned images are disclosed. A matrix or window of pixels is centered on each pixel of the image. For each pixel, a prescribed number of brightness vector differences, represented as algebraic signs, is calculated in parallel from the center pixel to surrounding pixels in the matrix. At the same time, the difference signs of the inverse vector differences between surrounding pixels and the center pixel are also calculated. Both sets of vector differences are stored and will be utilized in the vector difference sign determinations for subsequent windows. Only the difference signs (+ or -) associated with each vector and inverse vector are actually determined and stored in memory. Each difference sign represents a change in brightness between two pixels associated with a particular vector. A (+) represents a change from light to dark while a (-) represents a change form dark to light. For each pixel, the number of (+) difference signs and (-) difference signs are summed. Those pixels having a significant number of (+) signs greater than the number of (-) signs or a significant number of (-) signs greater than the number of (+) signs are assigned as edge points of the scanned image.
