Abstract: A regenerative process for oxidizing H2S contained in low concentration in a gas directly to sulphur including combining the H2S-containing gas with a gas containing free oxygen in an amount to form an O2/H2S-containing gas with an O2/H2S molar ratio ranging from 0.05 to 15; contacting the O2/H2S-containing gas with a catalyst for the selective oxidation of H2S to sulphur, wherein the catalyst includes a catalytically active phase containing at least one oxysulphide of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron, cobalt, copper, chromium, molybdenum and tungsten combined with a silicon carbide support and including a compound of at least one transition metal, at temperatures below the dew point of the sulphur formed by oxidation of H2S and depositing the sulphur on the catalyst; periodically regenerating by flushing the sulphur-laden catalyst using a non-oxidizing gas at temperatures of between 200° C. and 500° C. to vaporize sulphur retained on the catalyst; and cooling the regenerated catalyst below the dew point of the sulphur to a temperature for H2S oxidation to be carried out again, such cooling being carried out by a gas having a temperature less than 180° C.

Title: Snowboardkörper

IPC: A63C5/03
Filed: 1998-11-19
Granted: 2004-02-05
Abstract: A snowboard whose base is relatively thick in the mounting zones beneath each of the rider's feet and relatively thin between the two mounting zones. Thus, with normal loading applied through the rider's feet to the snowboard, the board will bow into a reasonably good approximation of an arc having a constant radius. Consequently, the portions of the snowboard coming in contact with the surface of the snow will substantially lie on segments of a circular arc, and the back half of the snowboard will substantially follow in the track of the front half of the snowboard. This is achieved by controlling the flexural rigidity in the mounting zones and in the center section between the mounting zones. The curvature of the snowboard in response to the application of forces by its rider is a function of the Area Moment of Inertia (I) of the transverse cross-sectional areas along the snowboard's length. In turn, the Area Moment of Inertia is a function of the geometry of the transverse cross-section. The invention is principally concerned, therefore, with the appropriate selection of the geometry of the transverse cross-section of the various segments of the snowboard's body.

Abstract: An architecture and system uses a smart card for payment of goods and/or services purchased on-line over the Internet. A client server on a client terminal controls the interaction with a consumer and interfaces to a card reader which accepts the consumer's smart card. A payment server on the Internet includes a computer and terminals that contain security cards to handle the transaction, data store and collection. Also connected over the Internet is a merchant server advertising the goods and/or services offered by a merchant for sale on a web site. The merchant contracts with an acquirer to accept smart card payments for goods and/or services purchased over the Internet. A consumer uses his smart card at the client terminal in order to purchase goods and/or services from the remote merchant server. The Internet provides the routing functionality between the client terminal, merchant server and payment server. The client terminal emulates a security card in interacting with the smart card, and the responses received are grouped together and sent as a draw request message to the payment server. The payment server then emulates the smart card in an interaction with the security card. The security card delivers the expected smart card signature to the payment server and/or on to the client terminal or merchant server to reduce message traffic between the entities on the network. The comparison of the smart card signature to an expected value can occur at any location. Encryption is used for security.

Abstract: A fiber-optic transceiver (10,12) receives from and transmits to an associated electronic terminal device, such as a protective relay, digital data signals. Fiber-optic transceivers (10,12) can be positioned at opposite ends of a connecting fiber-optic line (14). Power for each transceiver (10,12) is obtained from its associated electronic device. The transceiver (10,12) includes a transmit section (22), a receive section (53), a handshake section (18) to provide feedback of control signals which may be required by the associated electronic terminal device, and a voltage supply section (18). A particular optical coding, arrangement is used to convert the digital data signal from the terminal device to a series of optical pulses, wherein a pair of optical pulses represents a rising edge of the digital data signal from the electronic device, while a single pulse represents the falling edge of the data signal. Additional pairs of pulses and single pulses may follow the initial one, depending upon the length of the high and/or low portions of the data signal. The receive portion (53) of the transceiver (10,12) receives a series of optical pulses from the fiber-optic cable (14), recognizes the double and single optical pulses, and reconstructs a digital data signal therefrom. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The description concerns a working method and system (200) for inspecting the liquid tightness of a floor (20) by increasing the pressure on the underside of the floor (20). To this end, according to the invention air is pumped directly under the floor and into the possible joints (22) so that no pressure loss takes place as a consequence of the ground (10) on which the floor (20) rests. A system for the execution of this working method can therefore have a simplified construction, and the installation of the system can be done in a simpler and faster manner. In a special variant embodiment the present invention even provides a fully mobile system (200) in which, apart from a possible cover plate (24), no parts remain behind at the measurement location, so that the system can be used at several locations and is therefore more profitable. <IMAGE>
