Title: Two stage oxidation process for the production of aromatic dicarboxylic acids
Inventor: SUMNER CHARLES EDWAN JR
IPC: C07B61/00
Filed: 2002-06-04
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing a benzenedicarrboxylic acid such as terephthalic acid wherein a dialkyl benzene compound and acetic acid having catalyst components dissolved therein are fed to a first reaction zone wherein the dialkyl benzene compound is oxidized with molecular oxygen to provide a first oxidation zone product comprising a benzenedicarboxylic acid containing minor amounts of mono-carboxylic acid by-products such as carboxybenzaldehyde and toluic acid. The first oxidation zone product comprising a slurry of a benzene-dicarboxylic acid containing minor amounts of mono-carboxylic acid by-products is fed to a second oxidation reaction zone that is operated under more severe conditions of temperature and pressure. The rate of the feed of a molecular oxygen containing gas to the second oxidation zone is 3 % or less of the rate of the feed of the molecular oxygen containing gas to the first oxidation zone. The benzenedicarboxylic acid product obtained contains a total concentration of carboxybenzaldehyde and toluic acid of 150 ppmw or less.

Title: Graphic interface system
Inventor: CHEDMAIL PATRICK
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2004-04-07
Abstract: To make it easier to directly manipulate and manage the degrees of freedom of a virtual dummy, the invention provides a graphical interface system for enabling two windows (10, 20) to be displayed on a screen (2). The first window (10) contains an overall representation of the dummy (100) making it possible, using pointer means such as a mouse, for example, to select a member of the dummy directly on the screen. In response to such selection, the selected member appears in the second window (20) on a larger scale together with symbols (120) indicating all of the degrees of freedom available on the member in question. The operator can then act directly on the symbols (120) of the degrees of freedom to block or unblock them or indeed to manipulate the dummy in direct action.

Inventor: LIN JIAN
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2003-02-27
Abstract: An HDLC accelerator includes a deframer and framer to respectively accelerate the deframing and framing processes for PPP packets. The deframer includes an input interface unit, a detection unit, a conversion unit, and an output interface unit. The input interface unit receives a packet of data to be deframed. The detection unit evaluates each data byte to detect for special bytes (e.g., flag, escape, and invalid bytes). The conversion unit deframes the received data by removing flag and escape bytes, "un-escaping" the data byte following each escape byte, providing a header word for each flag byte, and checking each deframed packet based on a frame check sequence (FCS) value associated with the packet. The output interface unit provides deframed data and may further perform byte alignment in providing the deframed data. A state control unit provides control signals indicative of specific tasks to be performed for deframing.
