Title: Segregated in-situ forced oxidation wet flue gas desulfurization for oxygen-fired fossil fuel combustion
Inventor: ROGERS KEVIN J
IPC: B01D53/14
Filed: 2010-10-08
Granted: 2017-03-30
Abstract: An in-situ forced oxidation wet flue gas desulfurization apparatus, method and arrangement for utilization with oxy-fuel combustion power plants. The apparatus is a tower-like structure having a flue gas scrubbing zone and a reaction zone located subjacent to the gas scrubbing zone. A sulfur oxide absorbing liquid slurry is supplied to the gas scrubbing zone to react with and scrub the sulfur oxides from the flue gas. The partially reacted liquid slurry reagent and the scrubbed products drain into the reaction zone, rising to a set level. Oxidation air is introduced into the liquid slurry in the reaction zone to force the in-situ oxidation of sulfur compounds collected in the reaction zone. A wall separates and communicates the gas scrubbing zone and the reaction zone, the wall prevents the oxidation air from entering the gas scrubbing zone and extends into the liquid slurry below a nominal depth required to establish and maintain a liquid slurry seal thereby substantially precluding the leakage of flue gas into the reaction zone while allowing the partially reacted liquid slurry reagent and scrubbed products to drain into the reaction zone.

Title: System and method for liquid air production, power storage and power release
Inventor: VANDOR DAVID
IPC: F25J3/02
Filed: 2010-03-12
Granted: 2012-01-19
Abstract: Systems and methods for storing and releasing energy comprise directing inlet air into a vertical cold flue assembly, cooling the air and removing a portion of moisture. The air is directed out of the cold flue assembly and compressed. The remaining moisture is substantially removed. The air is cooled in a main heat exchanger such that it is substantially liquefied using refrigerant loop air. The substantially liquefied air is directed to a storage apparatus. In energy release mode, working loop air warms the released liquid air such that the released liquid air is substantially vaporized, and the released liquid air cools the working loop air such that the working loop air is substantially liquefied. The substantially vaporized air is directed to a combustion chamber and combusted with a fuel stream. A portion of expanded combustion gas may be used to heat and substantially vaporize the released liquid air.

Title: Driving system of unmanned vehicle and driving path generation method
Inventor: OSAGAWA KENTA
IPC: G05D1/02
Filed: 2011-11-22
Granted: 2014-07-31
Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to treat a switchback point which is upon a driving path and is in front of a loading point as a moving point which moves in position according to movement in position of the loading point in designating initial position information thereof. On the basis of the initial position information of the designated switchback point and the position information of the loading point, information of the relative positional relationship between the loading point and the switchback point is generated. If the position of the loading point moves, then on the basis of the position information of the loading point after movement of the position, information of the orientation of an unmanned vehicle at the loading point, and information of the relative positional relationship A, a new switchback point is set at a position where the relative positional relationship can be maintained. When the initial position of the switchback point is designated, then on the basis of the initial position information of the switchback point, a driving path through the designated switchback point to the loading point is generated, whereupon if the position of the loading point moves, a driving path through the new switchback point to the loading point after movement of the position is generated. In addition, the switchback point is designated as a fixed point that does not move in position.
