Patent CA-2465260-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STROUP ERIC W
IPC: C08J7/056
Filed: 2002-12-06
Abstract: L'invention concerne un matériau de revêtement et un procédé de revêtement d'une membrane hydrophobe avec un copolymère qui contient au moins un segment hydrophobe et au moins un segment hydrophile, tel qu'un copolymère triplement séquencé PEO-PPO-PEO, afin que la surface de la membrane devienne hydrophile. Le revêtement hydrophile aide à repousser des molécules biologiques, ce qui permet de diminuer le risque que ces molécules soient absorbées ou déposées sur la surface de la membrane. Lorsque les copolymères sont modifiés avec un groupe actif, des ligands peuvent être immobilisés sur les copolymères à travers le groupe actif de façon que des molécules spécifiques qui se lient avec les ligands puissent être ciblées pour immobilisation sur le revêtement copolymère, ce qui permet d'améliorer l'efficacité du retrait de cibles spécifiques.

Inventor: KONG SANG SHIK
IPC: F23D14/72
Filed: 2004-07-12
Abstract: There is provided a safety apparatus for a portable gas range, by which safety measures are conducted before an internal pressure of a canister is rapidly increased to an abnormal high pressure due to radiant heat or the like in use to prevent the canister from being overheated and thus obviate explosion of the canister, and a method for operating the safety apparatus. When the internal pressure of the canister reaches a predetermined pressure P0 just below a danger pressure P1, a desired amount of gas is discharged from the canister to a burner for combustion of the gas by operating a safety operating member 11 urged by a resilient spring S0, thereby maintaining the canister at a low pressure. If the low pressure is continuously maintained, the gas range is returned to its original combustion state, and the process is repeated, thereby improving a thermal efficiency of the gas range using the combustion of the gas. In addition, if the internal pressure of the canister is rapidly increased above the pressure P0, the canister is automatically detached from the gas inlet by operating a safety rod 13 urged by a resilient spring S1, as subsequent safety measures. -32-

Title: Modeling, simulation and comparison of models for wormhole formation during matrix stimulation of carbonates
Inventor: ZIAUDDIN MURTAZA
IPC: E21B43/25
Filed: 2003-05-29
Abstract: A new averaged/continuum model is presented for simulation of wormhole formation during matrix stimulation of carbonates. The averaged model presented here takes into account the pore level physics by coupling the local pore scale phenomena to the macroscopic variables (Darcy velocity, pressure and reactant cup-mixing concentration) through the structure-property relationships (permeability-porosity, average pore size-porosity and interfacial area-porosity) and the dependence of the fluid-solid mass transfer coefficient and fluid phase dispersion coefficient on the evolving pore scale variables (average pore size, local Reynolds and Schmidt numbers).This model allows better predictions of the flow channeling so that the matrix treatment may be adjusted to promote wormhole formations.
