Title: Improved membrane separation system and process
IPC: C01B13/02
Filed: 1988-10-07
Granted: 1993-03-24
Abstract: Condensation of feed gas constituents within a membrane system are efficiently and effectively precluded by positining the membrane system within an insulated enclosure heated to maintain superheat conditions for the feed gas passing to said membrane system. The membrane modules within the system are not individually insulated. A constant, stable temperature environment can readily be maintained within the enclosure, and advantageous flexibility can be achieved in the controlling of the operating temperature for process optimization purposes. The energy requirements of the overall operation are reduced by the advantageous recovery of feed gas compression heat for use in supplying heat to the feed gas within said insulated enclosure.

Title: Method and device for stacking stackable elements in groups
IPC: B65G47/31
Filed: 1989-08-03
Granted: 1993-05-05
Abstract: For the stack-wise collation of stackable elements (14) supplied in a single row, the latter are gripped separately and are raised to oblique moving tracks (18) during their further movement in accordance with their respective stacking height. Subsequently, the stackable elements (14) of each stacking group are slowed down from the bottom to the top in succession and in this way moved above one another and stacked. In each case a plurality of stackable elements (14) of a stacking group (52, 54) or adjacent stacking groups can be raised simultaneously. The stacking of the adjacent next stack is begun already before stacking of one stack has been completed. This continuous, interleaved manner of operation permits a very fast collation of the stackable elements (14), which are, moreover, handled in an extremely gentle manner. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1999-07-28
Abstract: An incinerator system includes: a main chamber (32); double reburn tunnels (41,42); an excitor (134,158) within a reburn tunnel; a grate (234) near the incinerator's inlet (231) to permit the drying and initial combustion of refuse, and an ash scoop (278). The use of dual reburn tunnels (41,42), along with a damper (69,70) that permits the closure of at least one of them, permits the efficient and environmentally acceptable utilization of the main incinerator chamber (32) even with minimal refuse contained there. With less refuse, only one reburn unit (41,42) operates; it will still have sufficient heat and throughput to maintain, with minimal auxiliary fuel, the temperature needed for complete combustion. An excitor (134,158), or solid stationary object placed within the reburn tunnel (41,42), permits the retention and reflection of the heat generated by the burning to assure complete combustion of all hydrocarbons within the reburn unit. Additionally, the air utilized in the reburn unit may enter through the excitor for efficient distribution and concomitant combustion. <IMAGE>
