Abstract: The disclosure relates to air pollution control, and specifically to an apparatus for redirecting fluid flow in a plenum to improve flow performance and, therefore, improved air pollution control, especially in selective catalytic NO x reduction. The apparatus employs an array of flat blades mounted at an angle with respect to the inlet (upstream) fluid flow, such that the blades are titled with respect to that flow and correspondingly redirect the flow in a desired direction. The apparatus, which can also referred to as a 'GSG' or 'graduated straightening grid,' has a range of applications, and offers a number of performance, structural, and economic advantages in large-scale applications.
Patent CA-2710265-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURKE MURRAY J
IPC: B30B15/00
Filed: 2010-07-16
Abstract: An apparatus is provided for compressing a loose solid feedstock. The apparatus includes a two stage compressor. The first compression stage is a screw compressor. The second compressor stage is a reciprocating compressor. The reciprocating compressor operates co-axially with, and receives its feed from, the screw compressor. A  choke cone maintains pressure in the outfeed from the compressor stages. The reciprocating compressor includes a piston that is driven by a pair of hydraulic rams. The position and operation of the hydraulic rams, the screw conveyor, and the choke cone is monitored by sensors. The reciprocating compressor, the screw conveyor, and the choke cone are all adjustable in real time to control the compression of the feedstock according to a pre-programmed schedule that need not have equal compression and retraction strokes. The operation of the screw conveyor may be advanced or eased off depending on the motion of the reciprocating compressor. The operation of the choke cone may be actively controlled to obtain a coordination with the compressor stages.
