Title: Process for recovering alkali metals and sulfur from alkali metal sulfides and polysulfides
Inventor: GORDON JOHN HOWARD
IPC: C10G15/00
Filed: 2014-03-14
Abstract: Alkali metals (126) and sulfur (128) may be recovered from alkali monosulfide and polysulfides (122) in an electrolytic process that utilizes an electrolytic cell (120) having an alkali ion conductive membrane. An anolyte solution includes an alkali monosulfide, an alkali polysulfide, or a mixture thereof and a solvent that dissolves elemental sulfur. A catholyte includes molten alkali metal. Applying an electric current oxidizes sulfide and polysulfide in the anolyte compartment, causes alkali metal ions to pass through the alkali ion conductive membrane to the catholyte compartment, and reduces the alkali metal ions in the catholyte compartment. Liquid sulfur separates from the anolyte solution and may be recovered. The electrolytic cell is operated at a temperature where the formed alkali metal and sulfur are molten.

Abstract: La présente invention porte sur un distributeur pour la distribution de liquide qui, intégré dans une pièce à main, comprend une chambre à volume variable dotée d'un piston disposé à l'intérieur de la chambre et d'une entrée et d'une sortie de chambre. L'entrée et la sortie communiquent directement avec un volume de chambre commun et le piston effectue un mouvement de translation dans une direction linéaire par rapport à la chambre le long d'un axe longitudinal commun pour expulser du liquide hors de la chambre (course d'expulsion) et/ou pour aspirer du liquide dans la chambre (course d'aspiration). Le piston est relié à un dispositif de commande, une source d'alimentation électrique et un moteur qui entraîne le piston dans son mouvement de translation. Le distributeur selon la présente invention offre un grand nombre d'avantages par rapport à l'état antérieur de la technique, et permet notamment un dosage précis sans que l'utilisateur ait à ajuster manuellement la quantité dosée, la quantité à doser étant liée au volume de liquide dans la chambre qui peut être préréglé ou amené à varier automatiquement à l'aide de capteurs et de dispositifs de réglage.

Abstract: A method for preparing thin layers from liquid samples is disclosed. Such thin layers can be useful when analyzing samples with probes whose penetration length in these samples is short. The method consists of squeezing a certain amount of a liquid sample between two approximately flat and parallel surfaces separated by a small distance then cooling down the liquid sample until it freezes in a way that the frozen sample adheres only to one of these two flat surfaces. Removing the non-adhered flat surface leaves the frozen sample layer with the thickness approximately equal to the initial distance between the two parallel surfaces.
