Title: Pipe indexer/kicker
Inventor: LESKO GERALD
IPC: E21B19/15
Filed: 2006-02-01
Granted: 2010-12-14
Abstract: A combination pipe kicker/indexer for attachment to a pipe launcher is provided. The pipe kicker includes an articulated arm that is operated by a rotating shaft. The arm has a kicker head that rises up from a frame and moves towards a pipe located in the trough of the pipe launcher. Continued rotation of the shaft causes the kicker head to push the pipe out of the trough. Reversing the shaft rotation retracts the kicker arm into its frame. The indexer includes a plate having two eccentric cam openings and a cam rotatably mounted therein. Rotation of the cams causes either end of the indexer plate to rise up from the frame and urge a section of pipe towards the pipe launcher trough.

Patent CA-2550775-C (CA)
Inventor: BUSIGIN ANTHONY
IPC: B01D59/16
Filed: 2006-06-22
Granted: 2011-03-15
Abstract: A diffusion based process for tritium removal from water by tritium transfer from water to an elemental hydrogen stream, followed by a membrane diffusion cascade for tritium stripping and enrichment, and final tritium enrichment by one or more thermal diffusion columns. The combination of process steps takes advantage of membrane diffusion's large throughput capability at low tritium concentration with the simplicity of thermal diffusion for small throughput final tritium enrichment. The membrane diffusion stages use supported or unsupported microporous or hydrogen permeable metal membranes (such as Pd/Ag alloy). The diffusion process is compatible with any front-end process to transfer tritium from tritiated water to elemental hydrogen. The process may be designed and operated at low pressure, with small gas inventory, and no inherent overpressure hazard.
