Patent CA-2594357-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MILLER R J DWAYNE
IPC: A61N5/067
Filed: 2005-12-30
Abstract: The present invention provides a method of laser processing of materials, specifically laser induced ablation processes for laser removal of material particularly important in medical and dental applications in which the laser removal of material should be done in such a way as to not damage any of the surrounding soft or hard biomaterial. The ablation process is achieved by impulsive heat deposition (IHD) by direct and specific excitation of short lived vibrations or phonons of the material in such a way as to not generate highly reactive and damaging ions through multiphoton absorption. The heat deposition and ensuing ablation process under prescribed time and wavelength conditions for laser irradiation is achieved faster than heat transfer to surrounding tissue by either acoustic or thermal expansion or thermal diffusion that otherwise would lead to excess heat related damage. The result is that all the deposited laser energy is optimally channelled into the ablation process in which the inertially confined stresses from both photomechanical expansion forces and thermally driven phase transitions and associated volume changes constructively interfere to drive the most efficient ablation process possible with minimal damage to surrounding areas by either ionizing radiation or heat effects. By choosing a specific range of wavelengths, spatial and temporal shaping of infrared laser pulses, the energy can be optimally deposited in a manner that further increases the efficiency of the ablation process with respect to minimizing collateral damage.

Title: Apparatus for the liquefaction of natural gas and methods relating to same
Inventor: KLINGER KERRY M
IPC: F25J3/06
Filed: 2002-07-01
Abstract: An apparatus and method for producing liquefied natural gas. A liquefaction plant may be coupled to a source of unpurified natural gas, such as a natural gas pipeline at a pressure letdown station. A portion of the gas is drawn off and split into a process stream (154) and a cooling stream (152). The cooling stream (152) passes through a turbo expander (156) creating work output. A compressor (158) is driven by the work output and compresses the process stream. The compressed process stream is cooled, such as by the expanded cooling stream. The cooled, compressed process stream is divided into first and second portions with the first portion being expanded to liquefy the natural gas. A gas-liquid separator separates the vapor from the liquid natural gas. The second portion of the cooled, compressed process stream is also expanded and used to cool the compressed process stream. Additional features and techniques may be integrated with the liquefaction process including a water clean-up cycle and a carbon dioxide (CO2) clean-up cycle.

Patent CA-2637227-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WILFRIED LOCHTE
IPC: B05D1/26
Filed: 2007-01-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the uniform application of a coating of reactive coating materials, preferably polyurethane components, to tubular walls (20), and also relates to a coating device and a composite tube produced by means thereof. In order to apply a uniform coating thickness, it is proposed according to the invention that the tubular wall (20) is supplied continuously into a coating device (1) in which coating materials are supplied to at least one distributing duct which opens towards the tubular wall (20) and merges in the direction of transport into a coating duct (14), wherein the coating materials flow into the distributing duct (12) without a dead volume and pass from there to the surface of the tubular wall (20) and are held in a tightly restricted space until solidification. This measure ensures that, taking into consideration the transport speed of the tubular wall (20) and the length of the coating duct, hardening of the coating materials has initiated before the tubular wall (20) exits the coating device (1), and therefore a very precisely maintained layer thickness is generated.
