Abstract: This invention relates to a self cleaning reactor and to a process for the oligomerization of ethylene that employs a self-cleaning reactor. The reactor includes a mass of inert, particulate cleaning bodies that are entrained by the liquid in the reactor and scour the internal surfaces of the reactor during normal operation. This scouring action reduces the level of fouling on the reactor surfaces. Foulant material (polyethylene) is removed from the process on a continuous basis but the cleaning bodies remain within the reactor.

Title: Engrais inorganiques ameliores par de hautes valeurs organiques
Inventor: DAHMS GARY L
IPC: C05F7/00
Filed: 2012-03-28
Abstract: L'invention concerne la fabrication d'un engrais ayant des taux industriels d'azote supplémentés par des substances organiques, par exemple 16-0,5-2-17-3-14 (N-P-K-S-Fe-Organique en poids sec). Le procédé amène un traitement de matière organique par un acide concentré qui chauffe un mélange d'engrais amenant l'hydrolyse de divers polymères organiques qui peuvent être présents. Un mélange de biosolides reçoit ultérieurement une injection séquentielle d'une base azotée dans des conditions contrôlées. La matière organique stérilisée et liquéfiée résultante est ensuite versée sur une matière recyclée pour la production de granulés dans un granulateur avant séchage final jusqu'à plus de 98 pour cent de matières solides. En raison du fait que le procédé permet l'addition contrôlée d'acides et d'ammoniac, des niveaux désirés de composants peuvent être obtenus. Par exemple, des engrais ayant une teneur élevée en azote peuvent contenir des quantités variables de phosphate ou de fer. De plus, le procédé est à la fois évolutif, contrôlé en ce qui concerne l'odeur et sécurisé, permettant ainsi la localisation d'installations du traitement de biosolides dans la plupart de tous les emplacements désirés sans affecter l'environnement ni générer une nuisance pour les communautés locales. De plus, l'engrais de l'invention fournit un profil de libération d'azote double lorsqu'il est appliqué aux cultures. Après application sur le sol, l'engrais de l'invention libère un bolus immédiat d'azote, de façon analogue au sulfate d'ammonium traditionnel, qui est suivi par une libération lente continue d'azote typiquement sur une seule saison de croissance.

Title: Hydraulic pump control system for lift gate applications
Inventor: BARK PAUL
IPC: B60P1/44
Filed: 2013-01-22
Abstract: The hydraulic pump control system enables the synchronization of two independently mounted hydraulic lifting cylinders in a lift gate environment. A directional valve is added to the hydraulic line path between the lift cylinders and their respective pumps and reservoir tank. By connecting two pumps to one motor, the synchronization of the pumps is enabled for power up operations of the lift, and through the additional application of the directional valves, the oil flow rate to the lift cylinders (e.g., during a power down operation) can be maintained as hydraulically identical, thus synchronizing the movement of each lift cylinder with respect to the other, even in the presence other outside conditions that would could otherwise cause a de-synchronization of the lift cylinders.

Inventor: NEDWELL JEREMY
IPC: E05B19/20
Filed: 2013-02-15
Abstract: In order to determine the particular cut possessed by a tumbler of a mechanical lock, the tumbler is stimulated with mechanical energy. The vibrational response of the tumbler is detected, and the detected response is used in determining which cut of the plurality of possible cuts the tumbler possesses. The cut of a lock tumbler is defined by its shape and/or size. For example, in the case of a pin-tumbler lock, the cut of a pin is defined by its length. Different cuts of tumbler will therefore exhibit different vibrational responses to stimulation by mechanical energy, and these different vibrational responses can be used to determine which cut the tumbler possesses, for example by comparing with the vibrational responses of real or modelled tumblers with known cuts. The response may be detected while the tumbler is being stimulated, and the responses to different frequencies of stimulation may be detected and processed.
