Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a purified methane gas useful as a fuel or the like by purifying a methane fermentation gas by using a relatively simple apparatus and method, and elevating a calorie per a unit volume of the gas.  <P>SOLUTION: The method comprises supplying the methane fermentation gas to the bottom of an absorption column pressurized at a pressure of≥1 atm., supplying an absorbing water to the top of the column, making an unnecessary gas such as carbon dioxide or the like contained in the methane fermentation gas absorbed into the absorbing water by bringing the methane fermentation gas into counter-current contact with the absorbing water and recovering the purified methane gas from the upper part of the column. The dissolved gas can be removed from the absorbing water by flushing or diffusing the absorbing water after the absorption treatment, and also the absorbing water after the diffusion treatment can be recycled/reused. Therefore, the calories per a unit volume of the purified methane gas is elevated. By the method, the amount of the absorbing water to be used in the absorption column can be reduced and the quality of the waste water is improved. From a standpoint of equipment, the diameter of the column can be reduced and the height of the column can be lowered.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus in which carrying amount of a recording medium can be corrected without utilizing a scanner function.  <P>SOLUTION: At first, a sheet is fed up to a position where the carrying amount is regulated by means of an LF roller (S110), and a plurality of test pattern images are printed by combining first and second test pattern images (S120). The sheet is then fed up to a position where the carrying amount is regulated by means of a sheet discharge roller (S130), and the plurality of test pattern images are printed (S140). Since the carrying amount after printing the first pattern image before printing the second pattern image is different among the plurality of test pattern images, the extent of error in the carrying amount of each roller can be judged visually. Carrying amount of each roller can thereby be corrected by performing input operation based on a printed test pattern image (S160-S210).  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a high pressure anneal steam treatment apparatus and method in which generation of SiOH radicals is suppressed in a quartz tube, i.e. a reaction vessel 7.  <P>SOLUTION: After steam treatment is performed up to a given time (t2), pressure in a reaction vessel 24 is reduced slightly and oxygen is supplied into the reaction vessel 24 through an oxygen supply line 44 in order to compensate for the pressure reduction. Oxygen supply is stopped when the pressure in the reaction vessel returns back to p1. Consequently, an initial pressure p1 is substantially held in the reaction vessel 24. During that interval, temperature in the reaction vessel 24 is sustained at an initial level d1. The pressure reduction and oxygen supply operations are repeated several times. Subsequently, an oxygen substitution action is performed and oxidation reaction is repeated several times up to a specified time (t3). Undesirable SiOH radicals react on oxygen through oxidation reaction and the majority thereof disappears.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
