Abstract: 959,493. Pumping systems for liquefied gases. CONCH INTERNATIONAL METHANE Ltd. Dec. 1, 1961 [Jan. 16, 1961], No. 43101/61. Headings F1C, F1G, F1R and F1T. [Also in Division B8] A pumping system for liquids such as liquefied natural gases comprises a turbine 16 driving a pump 10 near the bottom of the liquid container and the working fluid has a solidification temperature below the temperature of the liquid 18 in the container 14. The turbine 16 may be driven by a combination of liquid and gas in which case the turbine exhaust fluid passes through a condenser 40 below the liquid level. After passing through the pump, the pressurised liquid is vaporised in a heat exchanger 50 and led to the turbine in an insulated pipe. If the turbine working fluid has a liquefaction temperature below the temperature of the liquid 18 then the pressurised working fluid passes through a pressure regulator fitted externally of the tank. The working fluid may be the vapour from the liquid in which case it is drawn off from the interior of the container (Fig. 4). Vapour from the container may pass into a separator (Fig. 3 not shown) or directly to the turbine 16 via a compressor 68. The exhaust from the turbine may pass into the line 22 and assist the flow of the effluent from the pump 10 in which case the vapour and liquid pass into the separator, the vapour passing to the compressor or back to the container and the liquid passing to a delivery line. In the event of a pump failure, or to assist the pump, compressed vapour may be passed through the delivery line. This pumping system ensures that vapour is returned to the container to counteract any pressure drop as the liquid level falls. In a modified form of this embodiment, (Fig. 4), the turbine exhaust is led directly to an accumulator 82, which also serves as a separator, and the line 70 has a by-pass 82 leading directly to the delivery line 22 the liquid being pumped direct to a separator 102. When the turbine 16 and pump 10 are inoperative the valve 78 and valves 84, 88 may be opened and liquid is pumped by vapour pressure into the accumulator 82, which has a relief valve 98. The liquid drains through lines 90, 92, 106 to a delivery reservoir.

Abstract: 950,001. Storage and revaporization of liquefied gases. BENDIX CORPORATION. Jan. 13, 1961 [March 9, 1960], No. 1461/61. Heading F4P. In a system for converting liquid oxygen to gas, which is universally orientable in normal and zero gravity environments, the liquid oxygen 34 is stored in a flexible, semi-permeable container 18 disposed within another container 10 comprising inner and outer vessels 11 and 12 defining therebetween an evacuated chamber 14, the container 10 having a liquid port 15 and a gas port 16 and the semi-permeable container 18 comprising a lower section 19 lining the lower portion of the inner vessel 11 and an upper section 21 movable to follow by adhesion the surface of the liquid 34 so as to adapt itself to variations in the volume of the liquid. The container 18 is preferably made in three layers, the outside and inside of which are of a felt of synthetic resin, e.g. tetrafluoroethylene, the middle layer being a laminated film also of synthetic resin. The upper section 21 is provided with an adjustable relief valve 24. The permeability of the container 18 is sufficient to allow liquid oxygen to permeate therethrough to cover the outside of the container; vaporization of the liquid cover by heat from outside the container will tend to prevent the heat from reaching the liquid oxygen 34. In a build-up circuit the liquid port 15 is connected to the gas port 16 by means comprising a check valve 65, a heat exchanger 69, a check valve 71, a pressure closing valve 62 and a fill, build-up, vent and relief valve 40. An economy circuit comprises the valve 40, a pressure opening valve 64 and a heat exchanger 75.

Title: Stabilisation of cellulose esters
IPC: C08B3/30
Filed: 1950-01-23
Abstract: An organic ester of cellulose which has been made by esterifying cellulose in the presence of a dibasic or polybasic inorganic acid esterification catalyst, e.g. phosphoric or sulphuric acid, and in the preparation of which the esterification solution has not been filtered, is stabilized by heating it successively with water to a temperature above 100 DEG  C. under pressure and with an aqueous solution of a lower aliphatic alcohol (1-5 carbon atoms in the molecule) to a temperature above the normal boiling-point of the solution.  Between these two treatments it is preferred to remove substantially all the water, advantageously wholly or for the most part in the liquid phase. Methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, iso-butyl, or amyl alcohol may be used.  For the first stage of the stabilization, the cellulose ester may be heated with 10-16 times its weight of water by means of steam for 1/2 to 2 hours to an autogenous pressure of 40 to 75 lbs. per sq. inch gauge, and at 140-165 DEG  C.  The water used is preferably distilled or demineralized water.  At the end of this stage, the water may be run off and the aliphatic alcohol may then be introduced into the treating vessel in an amount of 10-16 times the weight of the cellulose ester.  The concentration of the alcohol may be 20-55 per cent by weight.  The treatment may last 1/2 -2 hours and heating may be such that the autogenous pressure is 10-60 lbs. per sq. inch gauge.  Preferably the alcohol is subsequently removed by distillation (as its azeotropic mixture with water), and the volume of liquid in the vessel is preferably maintained constant by adding water.  Specification 640,075 is referred to.
