Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant l'analyse d'ions supprimés où une solution échantillon d'analyte (par exemple, anion) dans un éluant de contre-ions d'électrolyte (par exemple, sodium) est séparée chromatographiquement. Ensuite, on supprime les contre-ions dans une zone de suppression, on les retire et on les utilise afin de convertir les ions analytes en forme saline dans une zone de conversion de sel. Les zones de suppression et de conversion de sel peuvent être contiguës ou distantes et se réaliser dans des appareils de type suppresseur de membrane. Ensuite, les sels, acides ou bases ainsi obtenus (par exemple, dans les appareils à suppresion de membrane) sont détectés. La conversion en sel peut également être réalisée au moyen de deux convertisseurs de sel à lit d'échangeur d'ions par paquet dans lesquels un lit est en ligne alors que l'autre est régénéré, suivi d'un renversement de flux.

Granted: 2010-04-13
Abstract: A method is provided for recovering oil from a subterranean oil-bearing formation. One or more pairs of electrodes are inserted into the ground in proximity to a body of oil in said formation. A voltage difference is then established between the electrodes to create an electric field in the oil-bearing formation. As voltage is applied, the current is manipulated to induce oxidation and reduction reactions in components of the oil. The oxidation and reduction reactions lower the viscosity in the oil and thereby reduce capillary resistance to oil flow so that the oil can be removed at an extraction well.

Abstract: An indirect illumination and ventilation system for an elevator has illumination shielding devices mounted under ventilation outlets for guiding air from blowers disposed above the ceiling of the elevator cage toward the internal space of the elevator cage. The illumination shielding devices have a plurality of inclined long rectangular plates arranged in parallel with spaces between each other and having lower portions inclined toward the sidewalls of the elevator cage. An illuminator is disposed between the illumination shielding device and the ceiling of the elevator cage so as to be screened by the illumination shielding device. Air flowing from the ventilation outlets sequentially passes through the illuminators and the illumination shielding devices and then is blown towards the internal space of the elevator cage. Light emitted from the illuminators is directed toward the sidewalls of the elevator cage through the inclined plates of the illumination shielding devices, thereby preventing dust or the like from accumulating on the illumination shielding devices as well as preventing the light from directly illuminating passengers in the elevator cage.
