Patent CA-2367099-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MERKEL CHRISTIAN
IPC: H01M8/247
Filed: 2000-02-28
Abstract: The thermal efficiency of a fuel cell facility (1) results from the useful heat which is generated per quantity of fuel. Heat which is radiated from the fuel cell facility (1) into the environment is lost and cannot be utilized. The invention describes a method which minimizes the radiation of heat from the fuel cell facility (1). In this method, the air for operation of the fuel cells is passed into a housing (2) which surrounds heat-radiating components of the fuel cell facility (1). The air flows around the components, absorbs the heat which is radiated and delivers it to the fuel cell block (4), where the heat is emitted to cooling water which cools the fuel cell block (4) and transfers the heat to water of a heating-water circuit (4).

Patent CA-2376814-A1 (CA)
Inventor: COLLING PHILIP M
IPC: C07C7/11
Filed: 2000-06-19
Abstract: Ethylene is a commodity chemical used as a reactant in the production of vinyl acetate. Ethylene is relatively expensive thus making its recovery and re-use in the process encouraged. The present invention provides a method for the recovery of ethylene from the inert gas purge stream from the reactor loop in a vapor-phase process for making vinyl acetate. The method of the present invention includes the steps of contacting the inert gas purge stream containing ethylene with acetic acid in an absorption vessel; discharging a stream containing acetic acid and ethylene from one aspect of the absorption vessel; separating the ethylene from the acetic acid in the stream by contacting the stream with ethylene gas in a scrubber column; and recovering ethylene from a top portion of the scrubber column. The method may also include the step of recycling the recovered ethylene to the reactor loop for further use.

IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2001-04-26
Abstract: There is provided a method of transmitting power control information to a BSC  (Base Station Controller) in a BTS (Base station Transceiver System) of a mobile communication system. The BTS  receives forward power control (FPC) mode information indicating a low power control from the BSC and transmits the FPC  mode information to an MS (Mobile Station). Then, the BTS extracts a QIB (Quality Indicator Bit) that is a power control command in a frame period from a reverse pilot channel received from the MS according to the FPC mode information and determines the status of the QIB. The BTS transmits information requesting the BSC to change a threshold for a power control on a forward DCCH (Dedicated Control Channel) based on the determined QIB status to the BSC.

Abstract: Wireless Networks Inc. has conceived of a unique, low-cost method and apparatus for co-locating Bluetooth and 802.11b in a single access point. The WNI proposed solution has the added benefit of considerable flexibility, modularity, and end-user focused ease of use. The solution does not depend on complex silicon level integration but rather on widely available, low cost modular adapters and a means of interconnecting devices.   The most basic configuration based on the WNI universal access point is a base platform with a single USB peripheral expansion port. While a USB hub could be used to allow the attachment of multiple peripherals, the most basic configuration would be that of a single WiFi USB adapter attached to the base platform. The base platform is capable of supporting any radio technology internally, including 802.11b, but will initially be bought to market with Bluetooth as the built-in standard.
