Title: Method for attenuating low frequency noise in a dual-sensor seismic streamer
Inventor: TURNBULL NEIL
IPC: G01V1/38
Filed: 2009-05-06
Abstract: A calculated vertical velocity sensor signal is determined from a recorded pressure sensor signal. A constructed vertical velocity sensor signal is determined as a linear combination of the calculated vertical velocity sensor signal and a recorded vertical velocity sensor signal in dual-sensor seismic streamer data, using a mixture coefficient as a proportionality constant. An upgoing pressure wavefield component is determined as one half of a difference of the recorded pressure sensor signal and the constructed vertical velocity sensor signal, as a function of the mixture coefficient. An error in the upgoing pressure wavefield component is determined by propagating errors in the recorded pressure sensor signal and constructed vertical velocity sensor signal terms. A value of the mixture coefficient is determined that minimizes the error in the upgoing pressure wavefield component.

Title: Method and device for the successive production of coal briquettes compatible with a coke chamber
Inventor: SCHUCKER FRANZ-JOSEF
IPC: C10B31/10
Filed: 2010-10-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the horizontally successive production of coke chamber-compatible coal briquettes. In said method the coal is tipped out of a coal feeder into a pressing mould, which is formed from a plate having next to it two parallel terminating walls, which are stationary with respect to the direction of movement of the plate, and a terminating stop wall disposed on the plate transversely to the direction of movement of the plate. The pressing mould is therefore open to coal in only a horizontal direction. The side of the pressing mould open to coal is closed by a stationary wall, and the plate is braked or locked in the horizontal direction for the pressing operation, during which the coal is compacted by a tamping device, which is pressed by a device having a vertically acting force onto the coal in the pressing mould to produce a coal briquette. After completion of the coal briquette, the plate is moved horizontally in the longitudinal direction of the pressing mould so that the space in the pressing mould becoming free in the horizontal direction is used for producing the next coal briquette. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out said method.
