Title: Reciprocating piston compressor
Inventor: BAUMANN HEINZ
IPC: F04B53/00
Filed: 1997-01-17
Abstract: The compressor contains at least one piston (5) guided in a dry-running manner which, together with a cylinder insert (33), bounds a ring gap which is open over the common longitudinal section in each case and permits a leakage flow of the compressed medium. The piston (5) is coupled via a piston rod (42) to a support part (38) which is displaceably guided in the direction of its longitudinal axis (6) and is connected to a drive device. The piston rod (42) cooperates with the piston (5) and the support part (38) via support surfaces (43) which are convex at the end faces and permit relative movements of the support part (38) with respect to the piston (5) which extend transversely to the longitudinal axis (6). Accordingly, a parallel guidance of the piston (5) in the cylinder insert (33) is achieved which is not influenced by oscillations of the driving parts. The piston (5) has a metallic basic body (61) and a sleeve member (62) made of a plastic material on which the running surface of the piston (5) is formed. The cylinder is manufactured of a material whose coefficient of thermal expansion corresponds at least approximately to a resultant coefficient of thermal expansion of the materials of the basic body (61) and of the sleeve member (62). The compressor in accordance with the invention is particularly suitable for the oil-free compression of a gas.

Title: Immersed membrane element and module
Inventor: PEDERSEN STEVEN KRISTIAN
IPC: B01D65/10
Filed: 2000-11-15
Abstract: A filtering element has ultrafiltration or microfiltration hollow fiber membranes extending horizontally between a pair of opposed horizontally spaced, vertically extending headers. Side plates extending between the pair of vertically extending headers define a vertical flow channel through the element. Modules are created by placing the elements in place without obstructing the vertical flow channels. Each element may be released from the frame, however, and removed by sliding it in a direction substantially normal to its headers without disassembling the remainder of the module. The elements have associated releasable water tight fittings between the elements and a permeate collector, the releasable water tight fittings being releasable by removing an element from the frame. An aerator below the module has a plurality of air holes located to provide a line of air holes below each element or below a side plate between each pair of elements. In a preferred process, permeate flux is less than 50 L/m<2>/h and preferably less than 35 L/m<2>/h, aeration to scrub the membranes is provided during periods of time when permeation is periodically stopped and accumulated solids are removed by periodically emptying and refilling a tank containing the elements. A bubble point test is applied to each row of the module in turn, the presence of bubbles in a particular flow channel indicating which, if any, elements of a row are suitable.

Patent AU-2248301-A (AU)
Title: Macroscopic ordered assembly of carbon nanotubes
Inventor: SMALLEY RICHARD E
IPC: C01B31/02
Filed: 2000-10-27
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the creation of macroscopic materials and objects comprising aligned nanotube segments. The invention entails aligning single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) segments that are suspended in a fluid medium and then removing the aligned segments from suspension in a way that macroscopic, ordered assemblies of SWNT are formed. The invention is further directed to controlling the natural proclivity or nanotube segments to self assemble into or ordered structures by modifying the environment of the nanotubes and the history of that environment prior to and during the process. The materials and objects are "macroscopic" in that they are large enough to be seen without the aid of a microscope or of the dimensions of such objects. These macroscopic ordered SWNT materials and objects have the remarkable physical, electrical, and chemical properties that SWNT exhibit on the microscopic scale because they are comprised of nanotubes, each of which is aligned in the same direction and in contact with its nearest neighbors. An ordered assembly of closest SWNT also serves as a template for growth of more and larger ordered assemblies. An ordered assembly further serves as a foundation for post processing treatments that modify the assembly internally to specifically enhance selected material properties such as shear strength, tensile strength, compressive strength, toughness, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity.
