Title: Aeration diffuser
Inventor: DICKMAN DANIEL H
IPC: B01F3/04
Filed: 1998-04-02
Granted: 2007-08-07
Abstract: A diffuser (1) for mixing and oxygenating water or other liquid with an airstream employs a self supporting micro-porous tubular membrane (11), arranged in a spiral or grid configuration, with openings which are at least equal to the diameter of the membrane (11), extending both horizontally and vertically between the circuits or grids of the diffuser (1). Gas, when forced through the tubular membrane (11), forms fine bubbles which agitate, oxy-genate and entrain the surrounding liquid as it slowly rises through the openings. The tubular membrane (11) is flexible and is to be mounted on a manifold (14, 15) which connects it to a source of air or gas, and which may also impart buoyancy or serve as an anchor in the liquid.

Title: Polymerization process controller
Inventor: HAVLENA VLADIMIR
IPC: G05B13/04
Filed: 1998-06-26
Granted: 2007-07-03
Abstract: A batch polymerization process controller using inferential sensing to determine the integral reaction heat which in turn is used to indicate the degree of polymerization of the reaction mixture batch. The system uses a reaction temperature compared with a desired temperature, and the result is used as a feedback to monitor and control the process. One version of the process controller also uses a feedforward signal which is an integral reaction heat indication from a process model. In another version of the process controller, the integral reaction heat is compared with a desired integral reaction heat, and result is used as another feedback to monitor and control the process. Heat production and reaction temperature profiles may be used, along with the thermokinetic equations to determine the polymerization process and reactor models which are utilized by the process controller to optimize the polymerization process in terms of efficient use of cooling water and desired polymerization of each mixture batch.
Patent CA-2293287-C (CA)
Inventor: HONKONEN SCOTT C
IPC: F17C13/00
Filed: 1998-06-03
Granted: 2005-11-01
Abstract: In one preferred embodiment, the present invention splits off some of the excess capacity gas flow from a gas concentrator (11) which is then stored (14) via liquefaction. The stored gas can then be used as a portable supply. A portion of the oxygen gas flow generated by the oxygen concentrator is channeled to a condenser (13) which receives and liquefies the oxygen gas using cryocooler (12). A storage dewar (14) is used for storing the oxygen liquefied by the condenser. Liquid is then selectively transferred to a smaller portable dewar (23). A controller can be used for monitoring the parameters of liquefaction, including oxygen concentration, the amount of liquid oxygen in the dewar, and for controlling the parameters of liquid oxygen generation and transfer.

Granted: 2010-06-29
Abstract: A system (100) for tracking the movement of multiple objects within a predefined area using a combination of overhead X-Y filming cameras (25) and tracking cameras (24) with attached frequency selective filter (24f). Also employed are perspective Z filming cameras (25) and tracking cameras (24) with filter (24f). Objects to be tracked have been marked with a frequency selective reflective material, such as patches (7r and 71), sticker (9) and tape (4a). System (100) radiates selected energy (23a) throughout the area of tracking to reflect off the reflective materials. Reflected energy such as (7m, 9a and 4b) is then received by tracking cameras (24) while all other ambient light is blocked by filter (24f). Local Computer System (60) captures images from tracking cameras (24) and locates said markings. Using the location information along with preknowledge concerning the multiple objects maximum rate of speed and maximum size as well as calculated movement information, system (60) is able to extract from the background the portion of the unfiltered images that represent the multiple objects.
