Abstract: Apparatus (10) for measuring and controlling fluid flow across a boundary (12) comprises a conduit (16), supply means (22) for control fluid and two fluid flow sensors (28). The conduit (16) is positioned to extend across the boundary (12) so that its open ends (18, 20) are located on opposite sides of the boundary. The supply means (22) introduces a constant volume flow control fluid at an intermediate point so that control fluid flows through the conduit (16) in opposite directions and discharges through both open ends (18, 20). The fluid flow sensors (28) are mounted so that each may sense variations in control fluid flow exiting at the ends (18, 20) of the conduit. These sensors (28) generate output signals responsive to fluid flow across the boundary (12).

Abstract: On décrit un procédé et une ligne de production pour traiter des planches de lithographie où le développement et le rinçage, et de préférence aussi le gommage, s'effectuent dans une unité de traitement (10) et où l'on apporte les corrections requises sur les planches traitées, les unes après les autres à leur sortie de l'unité de traitement (10), de sorte que l'on peut faire toutes les corrections d'image qui s'imposent. On peut cependant incorporer à l'unité de traitement (10), en aval de celle-ci un four de chauffe (16), ou l'installer séparément comme un four ''indépendant'' (21). Ce four chauffe les planches qui ont été développées et rincées dans l'unité de traitement (10) avant qu'elles ne soient corrigées sur une table de correction par exemple. L'opération de chauffe présente au moins quelques uns des avantages des fours à cuire traditionnels, mais parce que l'opération de chauffe est moins violente, on peut encore corriger les planches sur la table de correction, sans que les planches de lithographie définitives qui ont été corrigées n'en perdent pour autant leur résistance accrue aux attaques chimiques et/ou mécaniques, auxquelles elles sont généralement soumises ultérieurement au cours du processus de montage.

Abstract: In a data processing pipeline system comprising: 
- a cascade of data processing modules for the processing of successive groups of data units which are relevant to the processing and which are presented to the system input, said groups being separated from one another by time slots, 
- control means for supplying the modules with at least one control signal for controlling the processing by the modules, which control signal occurs in synchronism with the presence of each group on the system input, 
a loss of information occurs due to processing delays if data transport between the modules takes place in a time slot because of the absence of control signals. Therefore, the pipeline system comprises: 
- monitoring means for stopping the processing by the modules in a time slot on the system input in the absence of the control signal. When the control signal (for example, sampling signals) are of a periodic nature within each processing cycle, indicated by a data valid signal, a length (expressed in data units) of each cycle equals an integer multiple of a length of a period of each control signal. In that case the control signals do not comprise a phase jump between successive cycles, so that further loss of information is avoided.

Abstract: A coal fired power plant includes a coal gasification zone where coal is gasified in the presence of an oxidant-lean atmosphere under partial coal gasifying conditions to produce a carbonaceous char and a crude gas stream, an acid separating zone where sulfur-containing compounds are separated from the crude gas stream to produce a combustible gas stream, and a converting zone where the sulfur-­containing compounds are converted to elemental sulfur. The combustible gas stream and the carbonaceous char are fed into a boiler which drives a generator to produce electricity; portions of the carbonaceous char product and the combustible gas stream are diverted into a gypsum desulfurization zone. SO₂-containing flue gas from the boiler is fed into a flue gas desulfurization zone. There, the SO₂-­containing flue gas is contacted with lime and limestone to produce gypsum. The gypsum is fed to the gypsum desulfurization zone where it is heated With the diverted carbonaceous char under reducing conditions utilizing the diverted combustible gas stream to provide energy to produce a SO₂-containing gas stream. The SO₂-containing gas stream is recycled back to the coal gasification zone to provide at least a portion of the oxidant-lean atmosphere air used in the coal gasification zone.

Abstract: A catalyst for promoting the molecular restructuring of the components of hydrocarbons to form desired products. The catalyst comprises copper salts, copper acetate being particularly preferred, in combination with anhydrous aluminum chloride. The catalyst can be used with either gaseous hydrocarbon raw materials such as natural gas, refinery gas, biomass decomposition gases, and similar materials, or with solids, meltable solids, or liquid hydrocarbon-containing raw materials including tar sands, oil shale, waxes, asphaltic compositions and the like. In the case of gaseous raw materials, the gases are preferably brought into contact with the copper salt coated on a catalyst support such as refractory alumina, in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride, which can be in vaporous form, in a continuous process. When liquids, solids, or meltable solids are treated, the catalyst is added to the reaction vessel containing such raw materials and heated until the product formed are vaporized and driven from the vessel. The products formed are water scrubbed and rectified. A variety of products are thus obtained including materials such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel, light lubes, and others.
