Patent EP-0501331-A3 (EP)
IPC: C07C29/151
Filed: 1992-02-21
Abstract: Methanol is produced from synthesis gas comprising hydrogen, carbon 
monoxide, and carbon dioxide in a two-stage liquid phase reactor system. 
Each reactor is operated in an optimum temperature range to maximize 
methanol productivity, and once-through product conversion of up to 9.1 
moles methanol per 100 moles of synthesis gas can be achieved with 
reasonable catalyst utilization. Overall catalyst utilization is increased 
by countercurrent catalyst transfer. In an alternate mode of operation, the 
liquid phase reactor system is integrated with a coal gasification combined 
cycle (CGCC) power generation process wherein the unreacted synthesis gas is 
used as fuel in a gas turbine-driven electric power generator. Operation of 
each liquid phase reactor in the optimum temperature range maximizes the 
available heat of reaction which is recovered as steam; the steam is 
utilized in the gas turbine combustor or the CGCC steam turbine. Methanol 
from the liquid phase reactor system can be used as peak shaving fuel for 
the gas turbine.

Title: Electrolytic pool purifier
IPC: C02F1/461
Filed: 1992-10-01
Abstract: A water purifier comprising an electrolytic cell (30) housed in an enclosure (34) and an attaching apparatus (16).

Abstract: An error correction system (20) reduces
redundancy of a two-dimensional product code array (130)
by eliminating an excess redundancy in prior product
codes that provides detection of more corrupted rows
than can be corrected. The product code array is formed
utilizing a row coding (154), a column coding (160), and
an intermediate coding (155, 198), which may each be
Reed-Solomon codes. The product code array has a total
redundancy of n 1 r 2 +r 1 r 2  symbols (160, 198), where r 1  is the
redundancy of the row coding, r 2  is the redundancy of the
column coding, and raw data symbols fill a k 1  by k 2  and
a r 1  by (k 2 -r 2 ) symbol portions (132, 134) of the product
code array. A decoder (38, 39) for the product code

Abstract: An arrangement for measuring desired parameters of a contact lens by optical sectioning which comprises a support fixture on which a contact lens is positioned. The support fixture includes a container in which a pedestal is positioned, and the container is filled with a saline solution. The contact lens is placed on the pedestal completely immersed in the saline solution. A line of light is generated and directed by imaging and shaping optical elements over the edge of the container and through a selected diameter of the contact lens. An imaging camera detects and image of the light scattered at the surfaces of the contact lens at the selected diameter, which is captured by a frame grabber and is digitally stored for subsequent image processing and determination of the desired parameters of the contact lens. The analysis provides at least four basic parameters of the contact lens including the diameter (D), front radius of curvature (FC), back radius of curvature (BC), and center thickness (CT), and can also provide the lenticular curve radius, the peripheral curve radius, the sagittal height, aspherical forms and deviations of the several measured curvatures, and the power of the lens.
