Abstract: There is disclosed a process for measuring transmittance of a fluid in a radiation field comprising polychromatic radiation - i.e., radiation at a first wavelength and radiation at a second wavelength different from the first wavelength. The process comprises the steps of: (i) positioning a polychromatic radiation source and a polychromatic radiation sensor element in a spaced relationship to define a first thickness of fluid in the radiation field; (ii) detecting a first . radiation intensity corresponding to radiation at the first wavelength received by the sensor element at the first thickness;  (iii) detecting a second radiation intensity corresponding to radiation at the second wavelength received by the sensor element at the first thickness; (iv) altering the first thickness to define a second thickness; (v) detecting a third radiation intensity corresponding to radiation at the first wavelength received by the sensor element at the second thickness; (vi) detecting a fourth radiation intensity corresponding to radiation at the second wavelength received by the sensor element at the second thickness; and (vii) calculating radiation transmittance of the fluid in the radiation field from the first radiation intensity, the second radiation intensity, the third radiation intensity and the fourth radiation intensity. Thus, the present process relates to a novel manner to measure UV transmittance of a fluid in an on-line or random measurement manner.

Inventor: HIPP ANTON JOSEF
IPC: B01J8/08
Filed: 2005-05-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for carrying out heterogeneous catalytic exothermic gas phase reactions at a high temperature and high pressure, during which the synthesis gas comprised of a mixture of make-up gas and/or of recycle gas is fed through at least two synthesis stages that are connected in-series to form a synthesis system. The product gases from the synthesis stages, with the exception of the last stage, are separated into at least two partial flows. One partial flow is cooled until the product is condensated out, and the condensate containing the product is separated from the gaseous constituents. Afterwards, the gaseous constituents are combined with the warm portion of the product gas in order to reach the inlet temperature of the next synthesis stage. In addition, the partial flow from which the product was condensated out and removed, can be heated before being remixed with the warm portion of the product gas. After heating, the temperature is less than that of the warm portion of the product gas, and the heat used for heating the partial flow from which the product was condensated out, is extracted, at least in part, from this partial flow during its cooling.

Abstract: Methods are provided for transmitting and navigating interlinked data using an interactive programming system. Pages of interlinked data are encoded at a network node, and data navigation information is generated for each page of the interlinked data. This data is then stored at the node. A user at a subscriber location, connected to the node by a television signal distribution network, is able to view a first page of the interlinked data, provided by the interactive programming system to the user's settop for display on a display device. The interactive programming system also provides the data navigation information to the user's settop. The interpreter within the user's settop creates a chaser, which is displayed at one of the links of the interlinked data and allows the user to navigate those links. The user may use the chaser to select a link, which is interpreted within the settop to provide a command signal identifying an action, such as sending another page of the data to the user's settop.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système matériel pour enregistrer des sons d'abeilles domestiques couplé à un logiciel de filtration, de synthèse et d'analyse de données acoustiques, et servant à détecter et à identifier des substances toxiques aéroportées. Des données de synthèse sont analysées au moyen de procédures statistiques de routine pour associer des spectres sonores aux variations acoustiques produites par des composés aéroportés spécifiques. Les abeilles domestiques produisent des sons uniques au moment d'une exposition aiguë à des concentrations sublétales de diverses substances toxiques aéroportées, ainsi qu'à d'autres facteurs de stress, comme les acariens prédateurs. Le système établit le profil des signatures acoustiques des colonies d'abeilles domestiques, analyse les sons résultants et identifie les composés en fonction de propriétés spécifiques de l'enregistrement acoustique, en offrant une solution au problème de la surveillance atmosphérique dans de vastes zones.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optimized process for more efficiently and economically carrying out the liquid-phase oxidation of an oxidizable compound. Such liquid-phase oxidation is carried out in a bubble column reactor that provides for a highly efficient reaction at relatively low temperatures. When the oxidized compound is para-xylene and the product from the oxidation reaction is crude terephthalic acid (CTA), such CTA product can be purified and separated by more economical techniques than could be employed if the CTA were formed by a conventional high-temperature oxidation process.
