Patent CA-2693621-C (CA)
Inventor: MASHHOUR MAZEN M
IPC: F23G7/08
Filed: 2005-12-02
Granted: 2012-11-27
Abstract: A method of enhancing the complete combustion of an undesired chemical and minimizing the formation of smoke in the operation of a flare stack. The method includes the steps of providing a flare feedstream formed from a combustible mixture of the undesired chemical and a fuel gas; determining the minimum stoichiometric oxygen requirements to assure the complete combustion of the components of the flare feedstream and converting the oxygen requirements to a corresponding digital signal. The method also includes providing a source of high pressurized air for mixing with the flare feedstream to create a combustible mixture and providing a source of low pressurized air (e.g. through a sidewall of the stack and above the high pressurized air) for mixing with the feedstream. The volumetric flow of the pressurized air can be controlled through an air flow control valve in response to the digital signal such that the total volume of air mixed with the flare feedstream is sufficient to assure the complete combustion of the feedstream components.

Title: Method of separation of hydrogen from gas mixtures
Inventor: PIENTKA ZBYNEK
IPC: B01D53/04
Filed: 2008-08-20
Granted: 2015-12-29
Abstract: A method of separation of hydrogen from gas mixtures consisting in that a gas mixture with any hydrogen content is introduced into a closed space, in which a polymer foam containing non-communicating pores is placed. Due to the fact that the hydrogen partial pressure in pores of the polymer foam is lower, hydrogen penetrates into the pores. Hence, the gas mixture leaving the closed space is deficient in the hydrogen. The inlet of the gas mixture into the closed space can be interrupted at the time when the leaving mixture has the same composition as the introduced gas mixture or earlier. Then the pressure in the closed space is decreased and, due to the leveling of its partial pressure, hydrogen is released from the polymer foam and can be received for further use. Its concentration is higher than in the starting gas mixture.

Abstract: Two water heaters may be installed in series at a customer location, such that an output of a storage water heater is coupled to the input of a primary water heater, the output of which provides hot water to the customer location. During normal operation, only the primary water heater may actually heat water for use at the customer location. However, during periods of excess capacity, the electrical service provider may enable the storage water heater to store the excess electrical power that is generated by operating the power plant at higher output (which may be more efficient).  Later, during hours of greater demand, the electrical service provider may disable the storage water heater used to store the excess capacity, whereas the primary water heater may operate normally. However, during the time of greater demand, the storage water heaters may provide pre-heated water to the primary water heater.

Abstract: An iterative, blind, frequency-offset estimation process that does not require any training signal or demodulated information symbols is disclosed. Receivers embodying the disclosed processes can produce periodic frequency-offset estimates, without running computationally intensive equalization or demodulation algorithms, by exploiting the temporal correlation of the received signal in the time domain, as well as the received signal's correlation across in-phase and quadrature dimensions, in some embodiments, to find a frequency-offset estimate that best fits the received signal in a maximum-likelihood sense. In an exemplary method of estimating receiver frequency offset, a temporally stacked signal block is formed from multi-branch signal samples corresponding to each of two or more time-separated samples of the received signal. The temporally stacked signal block is used in computing a maximum-likelihood joint estimate of the receiver frequency offset and the spatial covariance of the temporally stacked signal block de-rotated by the receiver frequency offset.

Abstract: Coating adhesion on wooden articles, such as railroad crossties, is improved through use of three surface-treating techniques prior to application of the coating. The first technique involves forming grooves on the surface of the wooden article, the second technique involves exposing the wooden article to heat to reduce the moisture content of the surface of the wooden article, and the third technique involves creating incisions on the surface of the wooden article to further promote adhesion. The techniques may be advantageously used together to further enhance coating adhesion.

Abstract: A heat exchanger placed underneath an elevated tub or shower stall or under the bathroom floor includes a flat top heat conductive plate. The top plate is fastened to a flat lower plate, having a serpentine pattern with a shallow depth embedded into the top surface. When the top plate is fastened and sealed to the lower plate, the flow of the incoming cold water is contained within the confines of the serpentine lower plate of the heat exchanger. Heat is transferred from the grey waste water falling onto the top plate to preheat the incoming cold water flowing underneath the top plate in the serpentine conduit chamber of the lower plate in contact with a bottom surface of the top plate. The cold water is thereby preheated and used as a substitute for the incoming cold water that would be normally plumbed to the discharge shower head.
