Abstract: An apparatus and process for converting carbonaceous or other material with calorific value into high quality gas preferably to fuel a reciprocating gas engine for the generation of electricity. Wet fuel is delivered via conveyer (13) to fuel hopper (14). From the hopper the fuel is fed into the dryer (15) by a screw feeder. The dried fuel then is checked for size via a trammel (16) where the correctly sized fuel passes through and the oversized fuel goes onto the reject conveyer (22) where it is delivered for shredding. The correct sized dry fuel is transported via a conveyer (17). The fuel is then fed via a feed system, to avoid the ingress of air, into the gasifier (19) provided with an innovative internal vane configuration.

Title: Virtual profilograph for road surface quality assessment
Inventor: MCCAIN STEVEN DANIEL
IPC: G01C7/04
Filed: 2006-11-30
Abstract: A virtual profilograph is disclosed that can provide measurements indicative of the ride quality of a roadway as the road is being constructed. As a result, a more timely, less costly indication of the ride quality of a roadway is obtained as compared to prior methods. In a first embodiment a Global Navigation Satellite System antenna is attached to a vehicle. When the vehicle travels over a roadway, measurements of the position of the antenna are recorded at different times. A profile of the roadway is created by measuring the elevation of the antenna as a function of the distance traveled from a starting point. In another embodiment, tilt sensors are used to measure the slope of the roadway and the tilt of the vehicle so that a precise orientation of the vehicle and, hence, the contours of the roadway, can be determined.

Patent CA-2573123-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PAYNE JACKIE F JR
IPC: D04H3/16
Filed: 2005-07-21
Abstract: A flow control element is provided for use in selectively controlling the flow of a liquid through an annular conduit. The flow control element comprises a self-sustaining, three dimensional fibrous element comprising a network of polymeric fibers. These fibers are disposed in a highly dispersed and randomly spaced orientation and are bonded to each other at spaced apart points of contact to form a tortuous interstitial passage through the fiber element. The fibrous element has a substantially uniform density and is sized for disposition in the lumen with an interference fit relative to the inner conduit surface. The fibrous element divides the lumen into a proximal lumen portion and a distal lumen portion when so disposed. The fibrous element is adapted to prevent passage of the liquid through the conduit when disposed therein absent a differential pressure between the distal conduit portion and the proximal conduit portion of at least a first predetermined critical differential pressure. The fibrous element allows passage of the liquid through the conduit when the differential pressure between the distal conduit portion and the proximal conduit portion equals or exceeds the first predetermined critical differential pressure. In some embodiments, the fibrous element may also be adapted so that it will move from its first position in the lumen to a second position when the differential pressure between the distal conduit portion and the proximal conduit portion equals or exceeds a second predetermined critical differential pressure.

Title: Extended depth of field using a multi-focal length lens with a controlled range of spherical aberration and centrally obscured aperture
Inventor: GEORGE NICHOLAS
IPC: G02B13/00
Filed: 2005-05-11
Abstract: An extended depth of field is achieved by a computational imaging system that combines a multifocal imaging subsystem for producing a purposefully blurred intermediate image with a digital processing subsystem for producing a recovered image having an extended depth of field. The multifocal imaging system preferably exhibits spherical aberration as the dominant feature of the purposeful blur. A central obscuration of the multifocal imaging subsystem renders point-spread functions of object points more uniform over a range of object distances. An iterative digital deconvolution algorithm for converting the intermediate image into the recovered image contains a metric parameter that speeds convergence, avoids stagnations, and enhances image quality.

Title: Method for manufacture of noble metal alloy catalysts and catalysts prepared therewith
Inventor: LOPEZ MARCO
IPC: B01J37/02
Filed: 2005-10-27
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacture of supported noble metal based alloy catalysts with a high degree of alloying and a small crystallite size. The method is based on the use of polyol solvents as reaction medium and comprises of a two-step reduction process in the presence of a support material. In the first step, the first metal (M1 = transition metal; e.g. Co, Cr, Ru) is activated by increasing the reaction temperature to 80 to 160 ~C. In the second step, the second metal (M2 = noble metal; e.g. Pt, Pd, Au and mixtures thereof) is added and the slurry is heated to the boiling point of the polyol solvent in a range of 160 to 300 ~C. Due to this two-step method, an uniform reduction occurs, resulting in noble metal based catalysts with a high degree of alloying and a small crystallite size of less than 3 nm.  Due to the high degree of alloying, the lattice constants are lowered. The catalysts manufactured according to the method are used as electrocatalysts for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), direct-methanol fuel cells (DMFC) or as gas phase catalysts for CO oxidation or exhaust gas purification.
