Patent DE-19808331-A1 (DE)
Inventor: PEINECKE VOLKER
IPC: H01M8/0258
Filed: 1998-02-27
Abstract: The inventive device has an electrode with apparent porosity. An electrolyte of a fuel cell adjoins one side of the electrode, whilst the other side is adjoined by a plurality of supply (1) and discharge (2) channels for the fuel cell operating medium. A supply channel is a channel into which unused operating medium is guided before being guided on to an adjacent active area. A discharge channel is a channel into which operating medium which has been used on the active surface is guided before being guided out of the fuel cell. A channel into which both fresh and used operating medium is guided is not a supply or discharge channel within the meaning of the claim. Each discharge channel (2) is adjoined by a supply channel (1). The operating media flow perpendicularly in relation to the active surface. This results in an improved supply of the operating media to the active surface of a fuel cell, which in turn increases the output of the fuel cell.

Inventor: GEIER RUDOLF
IPC: C08J3/12
Filed: 1998-10-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing especially PET granulates, wherein terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol are fed in the form of a precondensate into a drip tower having a distributing drip nozzle after esterification and pre-polycondensation with the purpose of effecting granulation. The precondensate exits the distributing drip nozzle by forming drop-shaped pellets that are blown by a hot countercurrent nitrogen stream reducing the velocity of fall and accelerating crystallization at an increasing degree of crystallization. Dried, semi-crystallized round pellets are thus produced that are then subjected to solid phase polycondensation resulting in pellets possessing high viscosity and quality for further processing.

IPC: F17C1/00
Filed: 1998-11-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for converting boil-off gas from cryo fuel tanks (1). Overflow devices for cryo fuel tanks that release nonburned boil-off gas to the environment are known per se.
