Abstract: A process for producing Ti through Ca reduction, comprising providing an apparatus including a reaction vessel for retaining a molten salt containing CaCl2 and having Ca dissolved therein, an electrolytic vessel for retaining a molten salt containing CaCl2 and continuous means capable of moving while having parts thereof dipped in the molten salts of the reaction vessel and electrolytic vessel; conducting electrolysis of the molten salt of the electrolytic vessel to thereby form Ca on the negative electrode side, the formed Ca deposited on and attached to the continuous means; transporting the Ca to the reaction vessel; and feeding TiCl4 into the reaction vessel to thereby form Ti. This process is economically advantageous as the feeding rate of TiCl4 as a raw material can be increased, as continuous production can be effected, and as Ca consumed by reduction reaction of TiCl4 can be replenished by electrolysis of CaCl2. Thus, this process can be effectively utilized as means for efficient economically advantageous production of high-purity metallic Ti and can find wide applications.

Title: Continuous reservoir monitoring for fluid pathways using 3d microseismic data
Inventor: DASGUPTA SHIVAJI N
IPC: G01R31/08
Filed: 2006-11-02
Abstract: A system and method monitor a hydrocarbon reservoir for drainage in volumetric three dimensions. Monitoring between wells is imperative for optimum reservoir management and is achieved by mapping the hydrocarbon fluid pathways in a producing reservoir. Unlike conventional 4D or time-lapse reflection seismic imaging systems that use a controlled active seismic source and records reflected seismic energy at receivers, the system and method exploit the minute vibrations, or micro-earthquakes generated in the reservoir layers that are induced by fluid movement. These microseisms are detected as the fluids move in the reservoir.
