Title: Fluid slugging separator
Inventor: KOMISTEK STEPHEN MICHAEL
IPC: B01D1/30
Filed: 2001-04-20
Abstract: The invention provides equipment and a process for handling production of fluids from an oil or gas bearing formation penetrated by a well, or group of wells.

Title: Process for preventing scaling of heat transfer surfaces
Inventor: UUSITALO PAIVI
IPC: D21C11/10
Filed: 2000-10-04
Abstract: In a batch process for kraft pulp production, fouling of heat transfer surfaces is reduced. The first impregnation liquor withdrawn from the digester is rich in dissolved calcium-containing material. This material, when heated, releases calcium which forms calcium carbonate. If this heating takes place at a heat exchanger surface, severe scaling may result. According to the invention, the calcium-rich liquor is introduced into the digester as an early displacement liquor following a finished cook. As the digester temperature is high at this process stage, the calcium-containing dissolved material breaks down and calcium carbonate precipitation takes place in the pulp in the digester, where scaling of heat transfer surfaces cannot occur.
