Title: Treatment of gas streams
Inventor: WATSON RICHARD WILLIAM
IPC: C01B17/04
Filed: 1993-03-24
Granted: 1996-02-15
Abstract: A part of the hydrogen sulphide content of a feed gas stream comprising hydrogen sulphide is burned by a burner 2 that fires into a furnace 4. The combustion is supported by a stream of oxygen or oxygen-enriched air. Resulting sulphur dioxide reacts with residual hydrogen sulphide in the furnace 5 to form sulphur vapour. Sulphur is condensed out of the resulting gas mixture in condenser 10. At least part of the sulphur-free gas mixture flows through a reactor 14 in which its sulphur dioxide content is reduced to hydrogen sulphide. Water vapour is removed from the resulting gas stream in a condenser 16. At least part of the gas stream now essentially free of water vapour is recycled to the furnace 4. A purge stream is taken either from immediately downstream of the sulphur condenser 10 (as shown in Figure 1) or from intermediate the water condenser 16 and the furnace 4, or from the furnace 4 and, if desired, subjected to further treatment to remove sulphur-containing gases therefrom. <IMAGE>

Title: Time-based media processing system
Inventor: DAVIS MARC
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 1997-07-28
Granted: 2001-03-22
Abstract: Existing media signals are processed to create new media content by defining content representations for the existing media and establishing functional dependencies between the representations. The content representations comprise different data types which determine the kinds of operations that can be performed and dependencies that can be established. Among the types of transformation that can be achieved are synchronization, sound substitution, and the creation of parametric special effects. The content representations and their functional dependencies are combined to construct a functional dependency network which causes the desired transformations to occur on input media signals. The inputs to the functional dependency network are parametrically specified by media data types to construct a template that can be used to create adaptive media productions.
