Patent CA-2839810-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BENNETT DUNCAN ALEXANDER
IPC: F24H1/20
Filed: 2010-06-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a water heating system comprising: a hot water storage tank having a first port located in a lower region of the tank and a second port located in an upper region of the tank; a water flow pathway extending from the first port through a heating chamber to the second port; electrical heating means (for example a heating element) arranged to heat water within the heating chamber, when required, so that water within the water heating system will circulate from the first port to the second port through the heating chamber, by convection, when water is not drawn from the water heating system; a water supply outlet communicating with the water flow pathway intermediate the heating chamber and the second port; and a check valve arranged to restrict the flow of water out of the hot water storage tank by way of the second port when water is drawn from the water heating system through the water supply outlet. Therefore, when water is drawn from the system, the flow of water from the tank to the water supply outlet is restricted, and a much higher proportion of water passing through the water supply outlet has flowed directly from the heating chamber. Since water received at the water supply outlet directly from the heating chamber will have been more recently in contact with the electrical heating means than water received from the hot water storage tank via the second port, less electrical heating energy is required in order that water at a given temperature may be drawn from the system, or water drawn from the system will be at a higher temperature, than water drawn from a system lacking a check valve. Therefore, the system of the present invention is more efficient than a system lacking a check valve.

Title: Method for suppressing increase in so2 oxidation rate of nox removal catalyst
Inventor: NOCHI KATSUMI
IPC: B01D53/96
Filed: 2012-09-05
Abstract: According to the present invention, a denitration catalyst which has been used for removing nitrogen oxides from an exhaust combustion gas and on the surface of which a silica (Si) component, that is an obstructive substance causative of an increase in the SO2 oxidation ratio, has been accumulated is regenerated through a step of dissolving the silica component accumulated on the surface of the catalyst. Thus, the silica component and other obstructive substances which cover the surface of the catalyst can be removed to provide a regenerated denitration catalyst that does not suffer from an increase in the SO2 oxidation ratio.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for an electronic and/or online raffle that is a more personalized experience for both raffle players and raffle creators. The proposed raffle structure allows raffle players to choose their draw numbers, randomize their draw numbers or a combination of the two if multiple draw numbers are purchased. It also allows for the raffle player to allocate which charity they wish their raffle dollars to go towards as the invention allows a plurality of charities to participate in the same raffle. The embodiment described, is based on the player choosing 5 letters that are significant to them in some manner while the system ensures that all entries are unique and filtered and that there can only be one winner as per the definition of a raffle, unlike a lottery. The third part of the invention allows the raffle creator to customize the inputs of the raffle such as but not limited to the number of elements in the draw numbers, the output or elements of the draw numbers, whether elements of the draw number can be repeated, the number of games in a series or final scores in sporting events.
