Patent CA-2355672-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SASAKI MASAKAZU
IPC: B60L50/16
Filed: 1999-03-24
Abstract: Generally a secondary battery is used with a hybrid drive in which an electr ic motor is driven by electric power from an engine-driven generator and/or storage battery. The secondary battery restricts the improvement of fuel efficiency by its low charge/discharge efficiency and requires regular replacements because of its short life, resulting in high running costs. An inventive drive system comprises a plurality of series-connected capacitor cells to form a capacitor bank as a storage device, parallel monitors each connected across each of the capacitor cells to bypass discharge current whe n a predetermined terminal voltage is reached, and switching converters having  a constant current output characteristic to control charging current for the capacitor bank. The drive system achieves improvements in fuel efficiency an d running cost.

Patent CA-2356658-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LILLICO DOUGLAS ALEXANDER
IPC: B01F5/06
Filed: 1999-12-13
Abstract: Structured packing for mass-exchange or energy-exchange processes uses a tack of parallel, flat sheets (10, 10', 10'') forming flat channels therebetween. A  number of tabs (12, 14) extends between adjacent pairs of sheets to form both bridges for fluid flow and spacers for structural rigidity of the packing.  Some of the tabs serve predominantly to divert fluid over the entire surface of a given sheet to prevent so-called channeling, while other tabs are disposed to predominantly enhance fluid transfer between the adjacent sheets.  Fluid communication between both sides of each sheet is facilitated due to slots (16) caused by the punching of the tabs. Preferably, the tabs or even entire sheets are perforated as well to facilitate fluid wetting of downward-faced portions of the tabs thus reducing "dry zones" on the packing.

Patent CA-2381589-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STONE ANDREW KENNETH
IPC: C22B34/12
Filed: 2000-08-04
Abstract: The invention provides a process for the production of titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) by the chlorination of titanium values in a titanium--containing starting material. The process includes exposing the starting material to a chlorinating agent and contacting the starting material with an inert liquid while the starting material is exposed to the chlorinating agent. The inert liquid is at a temperature of 200 - 350°C and is at a pressure of 5 - 100 atmospheres (1 atmosphere = 101.325kN/m2). This causes the starting material to react with the chlorinating agent to form TiCl4. The invention also extends to TiCl4 whenever made in accordance with the method.
