Title: Seismic survey data collection and processing
Filed: 2011-10-17
Abstract: A method of processing seismic survey data to identify objects buried close to the surface in a region of interest comprises extracting surface wave data from the seismic survey data, processing the surface wave data to identify areas in which buried objects are not located, extracting p-wave data from the seismic survey data for the areas in which buried objects are located, and processing the p-wave data for the areas in which buried objects are located to identify the buried object. The object may be an IED (improvised explosive device). The p-wave data may be used to determine velocity signatures for grid cells representing areas in which buried objects are located, and the velocity signatures may be used to identify characteristics of the buried objects. Electromagnetic survey data may additionally be used to determine conductivity and/or attenuation signatures. Also disclosed is a tomographic post comprising a seismic source located in a chamber between inner and outer housing, wherein the chamber is pressurised with an inert gas.

Title: Nox reduction in multisolid fluidized bed combustors
Inventor: LIU KE-TIEN
IPC: B01D53/34
Filed: 1980-12-29
Granted: 1985-04-25
Abstract: Nitrogen oxide pollutants are substantially reduced and sulfur dioxide minimized in multisolid fluidized beds by staged combustion of the fuel. The lower combustion region is operated at substoichiometric conditions such that NOx is reduced by carbon and carbon monoxide to nitrogen gas. The upper combustion region is operated at excess oxygen conditions to complete the combustion of char and carbon monoxide. Elevated temperature excursions in the upper region which deter sulfur capture are prevented by recycling cool entrained bed particles therethrough.

Title: Shaft seal
Inventor: FORCH HANS
IPC: F16J15/3244
Filed: 1984-10-12
Granted: 1988-01-07
Abstract: In the combination of a shaft with a polymeric ring having a sealing surface which flares against a counter surface on the shaft to form a dynamic sealing zone therebetween upon relative rotation of the shaft and ring, both the sealing and counter surfaces have hydrodynamically-acting feed-back elements for pumping fluid which seeps between the surfaces upon the relative rotation. The resultant, net axial component of pumping actions of the elements is in one axial direction along the shaft to pump the fluid back into the space from which it came, but the elements have different pumping actions. The different pumping actions produce a fluid circulation in the dynamic sealing zone which inhibits seal-wearing granular deposits.
