Patent GB-2462158-A (GB)
Title: Curing method of a crosslinked polyether polymer
Inventor: CUNLIFFE ANTHONY VERNON
IPC: C06B45/10
Filed: 2009-05-18
Abstract: This invention relates to a curing method of oligomers, using metal triflates (trifluoromethanesulfonates), and particularly to the curing of hydroxyl terminated elastomers to achieve crosslinked polyether polymers. The method finds particular use as an alternative cure methodology to replace isocyanate curing. There is further provided a cured and crosslinked polymer binder, which is particularly suitable and compatible for use with energetic materials. There is an independent claim to a composition comprising a crosslinked polyether polymer which includes residual catalytic amounts of at least one metal trifluoromethanesulfonate salt catalyst.

Title: Processing a new data indicator during a random access procedure of a mobile communication system
Inventor: YI SEUNG JUNE
IPC: H04L1/18
Filed: 2009-06-24
Abstract: The method comprises receiving S801 (S901 fig.9) one of a first uplink (UL) grant signal (fig.8) or a first downlink (DL) assignment signal (fig.9) through a message identified by a temporary cell identifier (Temporary C-RNTI) from a base station, the signal including a NDI toggled if the base station indicates new transmission. A second uplink grant signal (fig.8) or a second downlink assignment signal (fig.9) is further received S802 (S902, fig.9) through a downlink control channel (PDCCH) identified by a cell identifier (C-RNTI) from the base station, the second signal including a NDI with a predetermined value. Uplink (fig.8) or downlink (fig.9) signal retransmission of/to the user equipment is determined, depending on whether the NDI of the second signal has been toggled, wherein the UE ignores S803 (S904, fig.9) the NDI received using the temporary cell identifier.

Title: Waste management system/method including pyrolysis and power generation
Inventor: SWEENEY JOHN GERARD
IPC: F23G5/04
Filed: 2009-06-29
Abstract: System and method of integrated waste management including sorting a combustible waste material from a recyclable material using a separator 3 (e.g. trammel, shredder) and drying the waste material in an airless (e.g. super-heated steam) drier 4 to produce a pyrolysis feedstock. The feedstock may be fed to a pyrolyser 5 to produce pyrogas and char, the char being fed to a gasifier 6 to produce syngas, the pyrogas and syngas being burned off in an oxidiser 7, generating heat to generate electricity in a steam turbine 9 for a local or domestic power grid 15. Excess heat generated by oxidiser 7 may be supplied to pyrolyser 5 or drier 4 and excess heat in turbine 9 may be transferred to a heat recovery unit 24 for use in drier 4.

[Also in Division F4] In a domestic water heating installation (see Division F3-F4) a tank is heated e.g. by an immersion heater, which is controlled by two thermostats, a first thermostat being arranged to sense the temperature in a comparatively large volume of water at the upper part of the tank, and a second thermostat clamped to the outside of the tank to sense through the wall of the tank, the temperature in a comparatively smaller volume of water in the upper part of the tank. The second thermostat shown is clamped to the tank so that recess 19 containing bimetallic strip 23 is exposed to the tank surface. When a small volume of hot water is required, the temperature is selected by means of knob 36. When this temperature is attained, the bimetallic strip 23 engages plunger 25 which operates a contact arm displacing mechanism 44 which separates contacts 42, 43 thus breaking the circuit to the heater. As illustrated in Fig. 2 (not shown), the thermostats are connected in series and whichever has the lower temperature setting will override the other. A switch may be incorporated to short circuit the second thermostat. A fusible link 46 may be added to microswitch 26 which is adapted to melt if the thermostat exceeds a predetermined temperature.
