Title: Sediment transport by fully developed turbulent flows
Inventor: SUN TAO
IPC: G01V9/00
Filed: 2009-11-16
Abstract: The invention is a method of modeling a hydrocarbon reservoir. A parameter value in a set of equations is adjusted so that the output of the equations accurately matches observed sediment erosion and deposition behavior for sediment sizes throughout a range of about 10 microns to about 10 centimeters. An initial condition of a sediment bed in the hydrocarbon reservoir is defined. The equations are applied to the initial condition, wherein outputs of the equations express how a fluid flow affects erosion and deposition of sediments at the initial condition. The initial condition is adjusted based on the equation outputs to create a subsequent sediment bed condition. The equations are re-applied to the subsequent sediment bed condition a pre-determined number of times. The subsequent sediment bed condition is re-adjusted after each re-application of the equations. The model of the hydrocarbon reservoir is created and outputted.

Abstract: A method for producing chitosan from naturally occurring chitin-containing raw material, such as crustacean shells, includes an optional pretreatment step to remove non-chitin rich organic material for example, shrimp flesh, from the raw material, e.g., shrimp shells.  The optional pretreatment is followed by a demineralization step utilizing a mild hydrochloric acid solution and a deproteination step utilizing a mild sodium hydroxide solution.    The deproteination step is followed by a deacetylation step to remove the acetyl group from N-acetylglucosamine (chitin) to form an amine group, yielding d-glucosamine (chitosan). Each step is followed by a washing step and the product is dried, preferably at a temperature not in excess of about 65°C. Known purification and grinding steps may also be used to produce the final chitosan product. The process is carried out in equipment comprising a series of substantially identical or similar tanks and dryers, suitably interconnected.

Patent CA-2770348-A1 (CA)
Title: Compression of bitmaps and values
Inventor: PEDERSEN TORBEN BACH
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 2010-07-29
Abstract: The present invention relates to compression of values and bitmaps (1, 43), and methods thereof. Such methods are configured for operating on a computer system having a word length architecture of length WL and are based on the observation that not all the bits used for the run-length counter i.e., the fill length field (FL) inhere are often used, since runs are seldom so long. Contrarily to other compression schemes (e.g., WAH), said methods may assign the unused bits to one or more position list fields (PL, PL1, PL2, PLs), thus boosting the compression ratio. Moreover, the total length (in terms of number of bits) of the uncompressed data comprising values or bitmaps may be stored just once, preferably at the beginning of the compression, thus dramatically diminishing the storage requirements for the compression scheme, since it is not required to keep track of the length of each bitmap word while performing the compression or the decompression.
