Patent CA-2514375-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOHLSTRUK STEPHAN
IPC: C07C265/14
Filed: 2005-07-26
Abstract: Disclosed is a multistage process for continuous and phosgene-free preparation of a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate.      The process comprises (A) reacting a cycloaliphatic diamine with urea to form cycloalkylenebisurea, (B) reacting the cycloalkylenebisurea with an alcohol to form a cycloalkylenediurethane, (C) removing high- and medium-boiling components (e. g. alcohol) from the cycloalkylenediurethane without removing high-boiling residues, (D) thermally cleaving the cycloalkylenediurethane to obtain the cycloaliphatic diisocyanate, while discharging a portion of the uncleaved cycloalkylenediurethane, (E) reurethanizing the discharged portion with the alcohol, (F) removing the high-boiling residues from the reurethanized product; and (G) recycling the purified reurethanized product. By adopting a two-stage reaction (A and B) to form the diurethane, the method realizes a low steady-state concentration of the high-boiling residues that are viscous and tend to form deposits.

Title: Method and system for transmission of seismic data
Inventor: FISSELER GLENN D
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2004-09-21
Abstract: The transmission method utilizes multiple seismic acquisition units (12) within an array (14) as intermediate short range radio receivers/transmitters to pass collected seismic data in relay fashion back to a control station (16). Any one seismic unit in the array is capable of transmitting radio signals to several other seismic units positioned within radio range of the transmitting unit, thus allowing the system to select an optimal transmission path. Utilizing an array of seismic units permits transmission routes back to a control station to be varied as needed. In transmissions from the most remote seismic unit to the control station, each unit within a string (18) receives seismic data from other units and transmits the received seismic data along with the receiving unit's locally stored seismic data. As transmission is passed along the chain, it is bounced between seismic units to be relayed by each unit in the array.
