Title: Method of cleaning flue gases from combustion plants with the subsequent production of urea
Inventor: WINKLER HERMANN
IPC: B01D53/62
Filed: 2008-04-18
Granted: 2012-03-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for removing carbon dioxide from flue gases of incinerators as well as an apparatus for carrying out said method. In a first step of said method, the flue gases are freed from dust (3) and nitric oxides (2), and in a subsequent step, the pre-purified flue gas is brought in contact (5) with an aqueous ammonia solution in the presence of an oxidant such that the carbon dioxide of the flue gas reacts with the ammonia to produce ammonium carbonate. In a subsequent step, the ammonium carbonate present in the aqueous solution is thermally decomposed (6), and the gas flows generated during the decomposition process are fed to a urea generator (7).
Patent CA-2676385-C (CA)

Granted: 2015-06-16
Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, for sending a data block in an OFDM, or other MCM, communication system with reduced PAPR is provided. The data block is combined with a random scrambling sequence. An IDFT operation is performed upon the combined sequence, and its PAPR, peak-to-average power ratio, is calculated. The PAPR is compared against a threshold. If the PAPR is smaller than a threshold, the transformed, combination sequence is transmitted. Otherwise, a different scrambling sequence, if available, is used to form a new combination sequence, and the process iterates until either a PAPR smaller than the threshold is obtained, or a pre-defined maximum number of iterations is reached. If the maximum number of iterations is reached and no combination sequence is created that leads to an acceptable PAPR, then the transformed, combination sequence that exhibits the smallest PAPR level is selected for transmission.

Abstract: It is an object to measure a position of a feature around a road. An image memory unit stores images in which neighborhood of the road is captured.  Further, a three-dimensional point cloud model memory unit 709 stores a point cloud showing three-dimensional coordinates obtained by laser measurement which is carried out simultaneously to the image-capturing of the images as a road surface shape model. A  model projecting unit 172 projects a point cloud on the image, and an image displaying unit 341 displays the point cloud superimposed with the image on the displaying device.  Using an image point inputting unit 342, a pixel on a feature of a measurement target is specified by a user as a measurement image point. A neighborhood extracting unit 171 extracts a point which is located adjacent to the measurement image point and superimposed on the feature for the measurement target from the point cloud. A    feature position calculating unit 174 outputs three-dimensional coordinates shown by the extracted point as three-dimensional coordinates of the feature for the measurement target.

Abstract: The invention concerns a multi-layer body (7) having a carrier substrate (750) and a transparent layer (720) at least partially arranged in a window (70) or in a transparent region of the carrier substrate (750).  The transparent layer (720) has at least a first subregion (71a) and a second subregion (71b) with a varying refractive index, which are arranged in mutually juxtaposed relationship in the layer plane defined by the transparent layer (720), and are at least partially arranged in the window (70) or in the transparent region of the carrier substrate (750). Each of the subregions (71a, 71b) has a plurality of periodically arranged nodes which form an optical-action element and which are formed by a refractive index variation and which are arranged in substantially mutually parallel planes.  The planes in the at least first subregion (71a) are not parallel to the planes in the at least second subregion (71b). At least in one of the subregions (71a, 71b) the planes extend neither parallel nor perpendicular to the layer plane. In that way both the light incident on the front side and on the rear side of the multi-layer body (7) is diffracted by the optical-action elements and the elements produce an optical effect which is different in the front view and in the rear view in the incident light mode.

Abstract: Operation of a GPS receiver on a wireless communications device is controlled by determining whether the device is stationary or in motion. Motion determination is accomplished by analyzing radiofrequency signal traces, e.g. GSM signal traces, received from one or more nearby base stations. A three-tiered analysis provides a progressively more accurate determination as to whether the device is moving or stationary while providing, in certain instances, a more rapid determination than prior-art techniques. When the device is determined to be stationary, the GPS receiver can be deactivated. When the device is determined to be moving, the GPS receiver can be reactivated.
