Title: Recovery of nickel and cobalt from ore
Inventor: DUYVESTEYN WILLEM P C
IPC: C22B23/00
Filed: 2000-03-08
Abstract: A process is provided for the selective recovery from an impure solution of pure nickel and cobalt solutions, suitable for electrolysis of the respective metals. The impure solution may be that obtained from acid leaching of nickel/cobalt bearing laterite or oxide ore. The impure solution is contacted with a solid ion exchange resin to selectively extract nickel and cobalt, while rejecting at least one element of the group manganese, magnesium, calcium, iron(II), and chromium(III). The ion exchange resin contains bis-picolyl amine as the primary chelating group. The impure solution has sufficiently low levels of chromium(VI) and copper to allow repeated use of the ion exchange resin. The metal-bearing resin is washed and then stripped with an acid solution. This solution is then contacted with a water-immiscible organic phase for the selective extraction of cobalt, leaving nickel in the raffinate as a substantially pure nickel solution. The loaded organic phase is stripped with another acid solution to produce a substantially pure cobalt solution. The extractant contains an organic phosphinic acid as the active group for extraction. Nickel and cobalt can be recovered in essentially pure form from the respective pure nickel and cobalt solutions by a variety of conventional techniques, for example by electrowinning.

Title: Seismic signal processing method and apparatus for generating a cube of variancevalues
Inventor: BEMMEL PETER P VAN
IPC: G01V1/34
Filed: 2000-03-02
Abstract: A workstation computer system, and its associated method and program storage device, stores a novel software package known as "Variance Cube". The computer system is responsive to a plurality of seismic signals propagating through a cubic volume of an earth formation for generating a cube, representing said cubic volume of earth, where the cube includes a plurality of seismic data samples and where each seismic data sample has a corresponding "variance value" assigned thereto. The computer system also generates one or more maps, such as a time slice map, representing one or more slices through the cube. Each map displays and is used to determine certain geologic features which exist along the corresponding slice through the cube, each map including a plurality of the variance values representing the geologic features, each such variance value being defined as the degree to which an amplitude of each seismic data sample in the cube at a particular reflection time "t" varies about an average amplitude. When the Variance Cube software is executed, the method of this invention determines the plurality of variance values by: dividing the cube into a plurality of slices, dividing each slice into a plurality of cells, calculating an average of the amplitudes of a plurality of seismic data samples in each cell on the slice, subtracting that average from each amplitude of each seismic data sample in each cell thereby producing a plurality of differences, summing the squares of the plurality of differences thereby producing a numerator, summing the squares of the plurality of amplitudes of the plurality of seismic data samples in each cell thereby producing a denominator, dividing the numerator by the denominator to thereby produce an approximate variance value which is assigned to a center seismic data sample in each cell on the time slice.

Title: Ultrasonic volumetric alarm system
Inventor: BRUSA PIETRO
IPC: G08B13/16
Filed: 1989-12-28
Abstract: Volumetric alarm system based on ultrasonic waves wherein the signal picked up by the receiving station is returned in an amplified form and, on reaching the receiving station, is retransmitted after further amplification, and so on, the phenomenon being continuous and repeated in each cycle, there being created, due to the fact that, while crossing the protected area, the various frequencies composing the signal undergo varying attenuation in relation to a prevailing frequency, a resonance of the entire system on said prevailing frequency which is automatically selected from among the other frequencies, thus further creating a broad signal which is always present, reliability of the system being thereby considerably improved.

Patent AU-4969290-A (AU)
Title: Communication network
Inventor: HILL ALAN MICHAEL
IPC: H04Q11/00
Filed: 1990-02-05
Abstract: A communications network in which a central switching node (70) has at least two sets of both input ports (52) and output port (56) coupled to respective sets of transmitters (Tij) and receivers (Rij) by passive optical networks (54) and (58) and demultiplexers (52) and multiplexers (59). The transmitters (Tij) are tunable so that each can be selectively coupled to one of the input ports (52). The receivers (Rij) are also tunable so the output ports (56) can be selectively coupled to the one or more of the receivers (Rij). Alternatively, the demultiplexers (55) and multiplexers (59) can be tunable. This devolves some of the switching function outside the central switching node (50) thereby reducing the component count.

Patent AU-5330986-A (AU)
Title: Contact tip for welding electrode
Inventor: NILSSON ANDERS
IPC: B23K9/28
Filed: 1986-02-07
Abstract: A contact tip for supporting a consumable welding electrode and for supplying welding current thereto. The contact tip is generally rod-shaped and has a passage with a helical contact surface. The welding electrode is fed through the passage and makes electrical contact with the contact tip. Because of the helical contact surface, the passage never becomes constricted by cumulative deposits of dirt and extraneous matter from the welding electrode surface. Also, the helical contact surface, which axially extends at least one complete turn, has an unbending effect on the welding electrode, thus straightening the electrode. A distance "A" of the electrode axis from the contact tip axis may be chosen, as desired, considering the diameter of the welding electrode. Optionally, the contact tip may include a sleeve-like nozzle, to shield the contact tip from deposits of welding splatter.

Title: Pneumatically-operated gas demand apparatus
Inventor: DAVENPORT JAMES M
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 1996-06-03
Abstract: A pneumatically-operated gas demand apparatus coupled in interruptible fluid communication between a recipient and a first source of a pressurized first gas controls delivery of the first gas to the recipient as the recipient inhales and exhales and comprises a supply valve and a sensing valve. The supply valve has a first interior chamber divided by a flexible first diaphragm into a supply chamber region and a control chamber region. The supply chamber region is in interruptible fluid communication between the first source of the first gas and the recipient. The control chamber region is in continuous fluid communication with a second source of a pressurized second gas. The sensing valve has a second interior chamber divided by a flexible second diaphragm into a venting chamber region and a sensing chamber region. The venting chamber region is in interruptible fluid communication between the control chamber region and an ambient air environment. The sensing chamber region is in continuous fluid communication with the recipient. When the recipient inhales, the second diaphragm moves to a flow-causing position to cause the second gas to flow into the ambient air environment and causes the first diaphragm to move to a flow-supplying position thereby delivering the first gas to the recipient. When the recipient exhales, the second diaphragm moves to a flow-stopping position to prevent the second gas to flow into the ambient air environment and causes the first diaphragm to move to a flow-blocking position thereby preventing delivery of the first gas to the recipient.
