Abstract: A gas processing method of processing exhaust gases (1),
in which an absorption tower (2) is provided on a main circulation
path (74) which links a boiler, combustor or other
source of exhaust gases to a smokestack or other means by
which said exhaust gases (1) are exhausted to the atmosphere,
and in said absorption tower (2), the flow velocity of said
exhaust gases is used to entrain an absorption liquid (5) to
said exhaust gases for resulting liquid-vapor contact for
causing the targeted components of said exhaust gases to be
absorbed by said absorption liquid, comprising:
   a step of returning processed exhaust gases (1) exhausted
from said absorption tower (2) to an inlet of said
absorption tower via a bypass (72) when the flow velocity of

Abstract: The present invention is a shield (10) that protects the needle (23) of a syringe (20) and
maintains it in a sterile condition until use. The shield (10) is able to become open at both
ends (18,19). A paper (15) or thermoplastic barrier maintains sterility and keeps the distal end (19) of the
shield (10) closed prior to use. During usage of the present invention, the distal end (19) of the
shield (10) also serves as a guide over the neck of a vial (30). The present invention is a shield (10)
for a syringe (20) having a shield, which has two sterility barriers, where one (15) of the sterility
barriers is removable from the shield (10), and the other (100) is formed at an interface between a
syringe (20) and the shield (10). In addition, the shield (10) also has a guidance section that is
adapted to guide a vial crimp (35) into the shield (10) for interface to a needle (23).

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting fuel-vapor gas leaks that includes a jet pump (8) that introduces outside air into and pressurizes a vapor purge system including a fuel tank (1) by gasoline flow from a fuel pump (2); an internal pressure sensor (14) for measuring vapor purge system internal pressure, an open/close controllable reference orifice (21) that causes leakage through a reference leak hole; and a storage device for storing as an initial curve pressure changes during pressurization by the jet pump (8) for a predetermined time period, with the reference orifice (21) alone opened. The device can accurately detect leakage even while an internal combustion engine is running because it judges leak presence/absence by comparing a time series in a pressure curve obtained by jet pump (8) pressurization over the predetermined time period while idling with the vapor purge system completely shut-off, with a time series in the initial curve.

Abstract: A device for driving capacitive light emitting elements includes a plurality of electrical charge recovery switches that send a current corresponding with an electrical charge, which has accumulated in a capacitor, individually to a plurality of drive electrodes connected to the respective capacitive light emitting elements. The electrical charge recovery switches also supply a current corresponding with the electrical charge that has accumulated in each of the capacitive light emitting elements to the capacitor individually via each of the drive electrodes. The driver device also includes a plurality of output buffers that apply a pixel-data-dependent voltage to the drive electrodes. It is determined, for each drive electrode, whether the voltage of the drive electrode has shifted from a high voltage to a low voltage or from a low voltage to a high voltage on the basis of the pixel data. If the voltage shift has occurred on the drive electrode concerned, the associated electric charge recovery switch is set to the ON state over a predetermined period. If no voltage shift has occurred, the electrical charge recovery switch is set to the OFF state.

Abstract: In order to detect pressure of a light source device against a display screen of a display device, the light source device changes an area of a light receiving region on the display screen in response to a degree of pressure of a tip of the light source device against the display screen. Meanwhile, a signal processing unit of the display device calculates a distance between a light transmission unit of the light source device and the display screen. By using this distance, the degree of pressure of can be detected. Moreover, in order to prevent malfunction attributable to outside environment light and to reduce power consumption of a light source unit of the light source device, the light source unit is configured not to output light when the tip of the light source device is not pressed against the display screen.
