Abstract: A carbon dioxide sequestration process includes the following steps. In a first stage, a slurry of a metal silicate rock is mixed with ammonia so as to produce a ammonia/water/metal silicate slurry. In a second stage, the process includes scrubbing a gas stream containing carbon dioxide with the solution from the first stage to thereby absorb the carbon dioxide into a reactive slurry. In a third stage, the reactive slurry from the second stage is passed through a reactor that is controlled so as to promote the reaction between the carbon dioxide and the metal silicate to thereby produce a metal carbonate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a marking system adapted for coating a surface of a substrate in which a drying agent is used. According to a first aspect of the invention, a binder layer, such as paint, is applied to the surface. A drying agent is dispensed into the spray of a binder and becomes incorporated with the binder on the substrate surface. The incorporation of the drying agent into the binder prior to application on the surface provides improved mixing of the drying agent and binder and improved performance. According to a second aspect of the invention, a combination of optical elements and a drying agent are stored in a common hopper and are dispensed into the spray of the binder and become incorporated with the binder on the substrate surface. The mixture of optical elements and drying agent prevents coagulation of the drying agent and the resulting clogging of the dispenser.

Title: Mixed reactant flow-by fuel cell

Granted: 2014-12-23
Abstract: A cell unit of a mixed reactant fuel cell comprises a multiphase mixed reactant fluid distributor, an anode and cathode in fluid and electronic communication with the distributor, and a separator positioned relative to one of the anode and the cathode to provide electronic insulation and ionic communication between the cell unit and another adjacent cell unit. The distributor is electronically conductive and the reactant fluid which flows through the distributor has fuel and oxidant each in separate fluid phases, wherein at least one of the fuel and oxidant fluid phases is a liquid. The capillary pressure at the anode is selected to produce a higher hold up of the fuel fluid phase than the oxidant fluid phase in the pores of the anode when the mixed reactant fluid flows through the distributor thereby suppressing transfer of oxidant to the anode from the distributor, or the capillary pressure at the cathode is selected to produce a higher hold up of the oxidant fluid phase than the fuel fluid phase in the pores of the cathode when the mixed reactant fluid flows through the distributor, thereby suppressing transfer of fuel to the cathode from the distributor; or both. The distributor extends between respective superficial electrode surfaces of the anode and cathode such that the bulk mixed reactant fluid flows through the distributor and by the superficial electrode surfaces under conditions that produce a positive net potential of the fuel cell under load.

Abstract: An improved cartridge-type bearing seal[10] includes removably connected stator and rotor sections [12, 14]. The stator section [12] supports a distribution ring [15] that divides an internal annular volume [36] into radially outside [36a] and inside portions [36b]. The ring [15] has a sufficient number of tangentially oriented ducts [17] to permit fluid communication between the outside [36a] and inside [36b] portions. With this structure, when pressurized purge fluid is supplied to the outside portion [36a], the fluid flows through the ducts [17], to induce a desired tangential fluid flow within the inside portion [36b]. This in turn causes circumferentially uniform fluid pressure in the annular volume [36] that resides between the rotating shaft [18] and the end cap [32] of the bearing housing, and the pressurized fluid traverses a flow path out of the bearing. This circumferentially uniform fluid pressure, by itself or in combination with a flexible lip [44], prevents contaminant ingress between the rotating shaft [18] and the end cap [32] of the bearing housing. Because the structure [15, 17] that creates the tangential fluid flow is part of the removable cartridge [12, 14], this bearing seal eliminates the need to machine or drill a tangentially oriented passage in the bearing housing. One embodiment adds a secondary ring [51] adjacent the distribution ring [15], to reduce the need to precision machine the inside dimension of the bearing cap. These structural components render the circumferential purge fluid feature even more readily available, for a wider range of spindles.
