Patent CA-2647324-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOCKING GRANT
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2007-03-01
Abstract: A method and apparatus for initiating and propagating a vertical hydraulic fracture in unconsolidated and weakly cemented sediments from a single bore hole to control the fracture initiation plane and propagation of the hydraulic fracture, enabling greater yield and recovery of petroleum fluids from the formation. An injection casing with multiple fracture initiation sections is inserted and grouted into a bore hole. A fracture fluid carrying a proppant is injected into the injection casing and opens the fracture initiation sections to dilate the formation in a direction orthogonal to the required fracture azimuth plane. Propagation of the fracture is controlled by limiting the fracture fluid injection rate during fracture initiation and propagation and maintaining a minimum fracture fluid viscosity. The injection casing initiation section remains open after fracturing providing direct hydraulic connection between the production well bore, the permeable proppant filled fracture and the formation.

Patent CA-2652486-A1 (CA)
Title: Communication system
Inventor: OSHIMA MITSUAKI
IPC: H04N19/89
Filed: 1994-03-25
Abstract: At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram expressed at least in the polar coordinate system. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data streams respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability. Furthermore, a communication system based on an OFDM system is utilized for data transmission of a plurality of subchannels, wherein the subchannels are differentiated by changing che length of a guard time slot or a carrier wave interval of a symbol transmission time slot, or changing the transmission electric power of the carrier.

Inventor: BEAUDOIN ADRIEN
IPC: A23D9/00

Abstract: Nous avons développé un système d'extraction des lipides à partir des oeufs de hareng. Il s'agit d'un procédé en une seule étape qui génère deux phases : une phase supérieure enrichie en solvants , appelée phase supérieure et une phase aqueuse pauvre en matières liposolubles. La phase supérieure est constituée d'un système ternaire qui extrait à la fois les lipides neutres et les lipides polaires. Ce système ternaire est généré par la combinaison d'un solvant apolaire et un solvant polaire dans des proportions qui ont été  préalablement testées et optimisées. Il s'agit d'un mélange à volume égal d'acétate d'éthyle et d'acétone que l'on sature avec une solution d'acide citrique à 5 % dont le pH a été ajusté à 4,5 avec de l'hydroxide de sodium. Nous ajoutons au solvant de l'orizanol à 0,1%. Le solvant apolaire de la phase supérieure étant peu miscible avec l'eau fait en sorte que cette phase contient très peu d'eau. Nos expériences ont montré que la phase supérieure se distille relativement bien sous vide partiel. Ce qui permet d'obtenir un extrait semi-visqueux . Le rendement que nous avons obtenu est légèrement inférieur à celui obtenu avec la méthode classique de Bligh et Dyer avec le chloroforme: méthanol. Nous avons noté que le matériel choisi garde une certaine consistance lorsque nous travaillons à  pH acide (5 et moins) ce qui facilite la filtration. Nous avons aussi qu'un pH  acide du mélange ternaire cause un noircissement de l'huile (oxydation). A partir de pH 4,5 et à pH plus élevé ce phénomène est beaucoup moins prononcé. Nous avons aussi introduit un agent chélateur dans la phase aqueuse, ce qui devrait réduire la présence des métaux lourds dans les lipides de l'extrait.  Comme antioxydant nous ajoutons un extrait d'huile de riz. On pourrait utiliser d'autres antioxydants tels que des caroténoides (astaxanthine, leucopène , vitamine E  et autres antioxydants) Comme agent chélateur on pourrait faire appel à une résine échangeuse de cations ou encore à  des extraits de protéines de petit lait. Une personne familière avec l'art pourrait appliquer cette méthode à toute biomasse terrestre ou marine.
