Patent CA-2155220-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BARTHOLOMEW DAVID B
IPC: H04M1/71
Filed: 1994-03-21
Abstract: A method and system is provided for conducting secure power line carrier communications in full duplex over the power lines of a building. Power line carrier current telephone extension systems utilize 1) a single BASE unit per central office line (for interfacing line carrier signals with the central office line) and 2) one or more EXTENSION units, one for each extension phone set (for interfacing said line carrier signals with said extension phone sets). The method employs system control logic for providing A) multiple extension arbitration logic, B) privacy from eavesdropping and C) security from third party central office line capture by means of a digital messaging system in each base and extension unit utilizing a unique and matching security key (preamble) with each message instructing the system to change operating states, such as, A) during a conversation an extension unit may be put on hold so that a second matching extension can pick up the line, B) a base unit rings matching extension units to signal an incoming call or C) an outgoing call is initiated by a user taking a matching extension phone off hook to access the central office line. Matching of the random security codes may be initiated by the user. By this means unauthorized access to the central office line (especially for long distance calls) and eavesdropping by other users in the same building with similar line carrier telephone extension products is prohibited.

Title: Method for making and using coagulant compositions comprising a glyceride, a polymer and a solvent
Inventor: ALPER HAL
IPC: B01D17/05
Filed: 1994-05-31
Abstract: The invention discloses methods of making oil coagulant compositions, the oil coagulants made thereby and processes for using the coagulants to coagulate oil that has been spilled on water. The coagulant comprises a glyceride, such as, for example, the drying oil linseed oil, a polymer, such as, for example, poly(isobutylmethacrylate), and a solvent, such as, for example, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1, 3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate.

Abstract: Un appareil (50), qui permet de mettre un flux (62) gazeux en contact avec un matériau solide en particules, comprend deux zones (58, 60) de contact. Des jeux de lames (54, 56) faisant saillie confèrent au gaz traversant ces zones (58, 60) de contact un mouvement tourbillonnaire rapide dans leur circonférence. Un matériau solide en particules est amené depuis une trémie (70) par une conduite (72) dans la zone (56) de contact supérieure où le flux gazeux tourbillonnaire forme une bande turbulente de particules (60) dans laquelle intervient le contact entre le gaz et le matériau solide. Le surcroît de particules provenant de la bande (74) descend par des conduits (76, 77) dans la zone (58) de contact inférieure. Le flux gazeux tourbillonnaire présent dans celui-ci forme une bande turbulente de particules (78). Le flux gazeux entre par le conduit (62) et traverse la bande turbulente de particules (78) dans la zone de contact inférieure, puis il passe dans l'étranglement (66), traverse la bande turbulente de particules (74) dans la zone (60) de contact supérieure et ressort de l'appareil (50) par la sortie (68). Le matériau solide ressort de la zone (58) de contact inférieure par des conduits (82, 84). Cet appareil permet un contact gaz-solide par contre-courant et se révèle particulièrement adapté aux opérations d'épuration de gaz.
