Abstract: A process for producing water-free aluminium oxide from aluminium hydroxide in a circulating fluidised bed comprising a fluidised bed reactor (8), separator (6) and return flow line involves the following steps: the aluminium hydroxide is fed into the gas-side second stage of a two-stage suspension pre-heater (2) operated by the waste gases from the fluidised bed reactor (8) of the circulating fluidised bed and at least partially dewatered; dewatered aluminium hydroxide from the second stage of the suspension pre-heater (2) is fed into the gas-side first stage of a suspension pre-heater (5) operated by the waste gases from the fluidised bed reactor (8) of the circulating fluidised bed, further dewatered and then fed into the circulating fluidised bed which is operated by oxygen-containing fluidisation gas (10) indirectly heated in a subsequent cooling stage by the aluminium oxide produced and by oxygen-containing directly heated secondary gas (11) fed in at a higher level. The temperature in the circulating fluidised bed is set at between 850 and 1000 °C. The aluminium oxide removed from the circulating fluidised bed is mixed for at least two minutes with 10 to 25 wt.% of the partially dewatered aluminium hydroxide yielded by the solid-side first stage of the suspension pre-heater (2) and led past the circulating fluidised bed as a by-pass. The mixed material is then cooled in a multistage suspension cooler (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20), heating secondary gas (11), and then in the fluidised bed cooler (23), indirectly heating fluidisation gas (10).

Abstract: A generally rectangular reglazable vehicle window comprising a window panel of two spaced frames with an edge seal around the periphery of the panel; an egress frame in which the window panel is mounted; and a backframe defining the opening in a vehicle wall, the egress frame being hinged along an upper side on the upper side of the backframe to swing outwardly when released by an egress handle. The window panel is mounted in the egress frame between a fixed abutment rim blocking inward movement of the panel, and a removable abutment rim that is formed integrally with a retainer ring extending around the egress frame between the panel and the backframe. The ring is wedge-shaped in cross-sections for ease of insertion and removal.      Screws threaded into the retainer ring from the periphery of the egress frame normally hold the ring and the removable rim in place, the heads of the screws being recessed into the edge of the egress frame so as to be covered when the frame is in the closed position and accessible for service and repair when the frame is in the open position. A removable seal conceals the screws in the open position. The hinge for the egress frame constitutes two interfitting channels that suspend the egress frame from the top of the backframe and remain engaged as the egress frame swings open to at least a horizontal position, then disengaging to release the egress frame. A lower hinge element covers the top of the retainer rim. In a modified embodiment, a sacrificial panel covers the inner side of the window panel and is overlapped by an offset edge portion of the fixed rim.

Title: Carbon monoxide concentration reducing apparatus and method for driving the same
Inventor: AOYAMA SATOSHI
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 1999-02-02
Granted: 2004-04-13
Abstract: A carbon monoxide concentration reducing apparatus that raises the internal temperature of a CO-selective oxidation unit carrying a selective oxidation catalyst in as short a time period as possible after the apparatus is started, and a driving method for the apparatus are disclosed. In addition to the selective oxidation catalyst, the CO-selective oxidation unit contains an oxidation catalyst. The oxidation catalyst is capable of facilitating oxidation of an oxidizable gas component of a hydrogen-rich gas, even at temperatures substantially equal to a normal room temperature.  The oxidation catalyst is, for example, a platinum (Pt) catalyst. Even when the internal temperature of the CO-selective oxidation unit is substantially equal to a normal room temperature, the oxidizable gas component of the hydrogen-rich gas can be oxidized by oxygen contained in an oxidative gas, via the function of the Pt catalyst.  Using heat produced by this oxidation, the temperature of the hydrogen-rich gas can be raised, so that the internal temperature of the CO-selective oxidation unit can be raised to a desired temperature.

Abstract: Electronic gaming machines, such as slot machines or video poker machines are interconnected by a computer network. The behavior of each machine is controlled by configuring selected parameters such as game speed, payback percentage, or game appearance. As the machines are played, any of the selected parameters may be changed responsive to commands issued over the network. The commands are issued in response to predetermined changes in variables such as rate of play, player status, and the time of the day, week, or month. The payback percentage may be changed by implementing a new pay table at the selected machine or machines or by implementing a bonus period during which a percentage of all money played on the selected machines accrues in a bonus pool. During the bonus period, the selected machines are eligible for bonus awards that may be random or related to jackpots paid based on the pay tables in the selected machines.

Title: Multiple branch peptide constructions
Inventor: VAN RIETSCHOTEN JURPHAAS
IPC: C07K14/16
Filed: 1997-12-30
Granted: 2007-05-29
Abstract: Multiple branch peptide constructions formed from peptides derived from the envelope transmembrane glycoprotein gp41 of HIV, and including the consensus sequence RQGY preceded by 0 to 4 amino acid residues and succeeded by 2 to 4 amino acid residues, most preferably RQGYSPL, show increased receptor affinity and prevent cell-to-cel l fusion. They have a direct virostatic effect. Because they present the same peptide sequence several times, these MBPCs are able to neutralize in vitro the different steps of virus envelope/cell membrane fusion, and infected cell membrane/uninfected cell membrane fusion of several strains of HIV-1 and HIV-2. These results open a potential use in treatment of HIV infection.

Abstract: A system and method accelerate access time to multiplexed data streams. Data  streams are stored in a storage medium (120), and a link allocation table (LAT) (160), which is stored in the storage medium (120), maps blocks of a data stream to sectors of the storage medium (120). The LAT (160) is organiz ed as a set of linked lists, and each data stream is associated with a differen t linked list in the LAT (160). Each link in a linked list includes the sector  location for a different block of the data stream. Traversing the links of t he linked list gives the sector location of each subsequent block of data. Each  data stream is also associated with a cache memory (140). For each link of a  linked list that is traversed, a cache interface (150) writes into an appropriate cache (140) the sector location information stored in the link. When the sector location of a block in a data stream is desired, the cache interface (150) consults the appropriate cache (140) associated with the dat a stream to determine whether the sector location of the block has been cached . If the information has been cached, the information is retrieved from the cache (140), and the LAT (160) is not used. If the sector location has not been cached, the cache interface (150) determines the last sector location t o have been cached, and the appropriated linked list in the LAT (160) is traverse from the entry corresponding to the last sector location cached.</S DOAB>
