Abstract: Wood ash residues are a complex ternary mixture of small stones, biochar particles and ash. The present application shows how a combination of physical separation processes can be applied to the efficient extraction of a biochar-rich fraction. Two different techniques were tested: segregation and elutriation. The effects of the fluidization velocity on both of the processes were investigated respectively.  Either technique happened to be ineffective, on its own, to obtain high purity biochar.  However, a combination of segregation and elutriation proved to recover 78% of the biochar with a purity of 90%.

IPC: F03D9/00

Abstract: The present invention concerns a wind power installation comprising a pylon, a pod mounted rotatably on the pylon, a generator arranged within the pod and having a rotor and a stator, and at least one fan in the region of the pod. In order to reduce the entry of moisture, sand and other foreign substances into the pod and also to reduce the fan noise which reaches the exterior, in accordance with the invention there is provided an arrangement of the fan within the pod, wherein the fan sucks in outside air through a downwardly open first air gap, in particular between the pylon and the pod. In that respect the invention is based on the realisation that the air flow along the wind power installation and in particular in the region of the pod has a markedly pronounced horizontal component and at best a markedly less pronounced vertical component. In other words the wind and therewith the foreign substances transported thereby flow at the windward side along the pod to the fee side and have then passed the wind power installation. If therefore air is sucked in through a downwardly open air gap, then at most very fine particles can still also be sucked in, which more specifically can be borne upwardly by the air flow, against the effect of the force of gravity. As a result the suction intake of relatively large particles of sand and dust and also the suction intake of raindrops which, as anyone knows, are considerably heavier, is reduced to a high degree, if not entirely prevented.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, article of manufacture, and method provides one or more distributed convergence nodes referred to as "Supernodes", each of which is embodied as a functional technology component within an application that automatically determines whether said component should become "active" and assume the responsibility of forwarding IP multicast data present on a LAN (which supports IP multicast communication) to a "Routing Supernode" via a WAN (which does not support IP multicast communication). The Routing Supernode, in turn, is responsible for forwarding that traffic to other Supernodes present on other LANs. The traffic sent to and from the Routing Supernode is sent via unicast communication. All Supernodes are responsible not only for forwarding traffic present on their respective LAN across the WAN to a Routing Supernode, but they are also responsible for forwarding traffic received over the WAN from the Routing Supernode onto their own respective LANs. An election process determines which device in a LAN is to operate as a SuperNode.

Title: Process for selective aromatics disproportionation with increased conversion
Inventor: BOLDINGH EDWIN P
IPC: C07C15/08
Filed: 2007-05-05
Abstract: An improved process is disclosed for the selective disproportionation of toluene. The process preferably uses a disproportionation catalyst comprising a pentasil type zeolite such as MFI that is bound with aluminum-phosphate. Running the process at a toluene conversion greater than 30 wt-% and at a hydrogen-to-hydrocarbon ratio less than 3.0, and especially a ratio of 0.1 to 1.0, improves the maximum yield of para-xylene. Periodic rejuvenation by increasing the hydrogen-to-hydrocarbon ratio removes some carbon deposits and restores catalyst activity. An inert diluent gas assists in selective pre-coking of the catalyst as well.

Title: Method and apparatus for continuous processing of whole muscle meat products
Inventor: CABRALES LYNDA
IPC: A23L13/00
Filed: 2009-11-13
Abstract: A continuous method and system for processing whole muscle meat employs a mixer housing having a pair of parallel rotating shafts located therein. The parallel rotating shafts have a plurality of mixing elements thereon, such as frustoconical elements, blocking elements, or ellipsoid elements. The mixer housing has an input end to receive the meat ingredients, such as meat pieces, salt solution, water, preservatives, and other additives such as spices. The mixer housing has an output, which is separated a distance from the input, such that the output discharges the whole muscle meat product. As the ingredients including the meat move from the input to the output along the shafts, the mixing elements work the meat with the other ingredients thereby increasing ingredient incorporation including diffusion of the salt solution into the whole muscle meat pieces.
