Title: Method and apparatus for improving steam dryness of steam injection boiler
Inventor: XUE BINGPING
IPC: E21B43/24
Filed: 2013-07-04
Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for improving the steam dryness of a steam injection boiler. The method comprises: after the dryness of wet saturated steam at an outlet of the steam injection boiler (1) is improved by a dryness raiser (4), injecting the wet saturated steam and gas generated by the dryness raiser (4) into an oil layer together in a sealed way. The dryness raiser (4) comprises a combined spray head (4.4), a steam heating chamber (4.2), a combustion chamber (4.3) and a mixing chamber (4.10). High-temperature and high-pressure gas generated by the combustion chamber (4.3) enters the mixing chamber (4.10) to be fully mixed in the mixing chamber (4.10) with steam from the steam injection boiler (1). According to the method and the apparatus for improving the steam dryness of the steam injection boiler, the dryness of the wet saturated steam at the outlet of the steam injection boiler (1) may be improved to 95% to 100%, the effects of improving the steam enthalpy, replenishing the stratum energy and enlarging the steam wave and size are realized, so as to more effectively heat the oil layer, and improve the thick oil development effect.
Patent CA-2864252-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ARENDT WILLIAM D
IPC: C09D7/63
Filed: 2013-02-14
Abstract: A unique monobenzoate useful as a plasticizer in polymeric dispersions, such as adhesives, comprising 3-phenyl propyl benzoate, a monobenzoate ester used as a flavor and fragrance additive, but not heretofore utilized as a plasticizer for polymeric dispersions, such as adhesives, caulks and sealants. The inventive monobenzoate provides a suitable non-phthalate, lower VOC alternative plasticizer that is compatible with a wide variety of polymers. Advantages rendered by the use of the inventive monobenzoate include, among other things, excellent viscosity response, low viscosity, viscosity stability, improved rheology, good film formation and comparable or better adhesion, peel strength, set time, open time, chalk point and MFFT, compared with that achieved by traditional plasticizers. The inventive monobenzoate also has an excellent health, safety and environmental profile and provides a viable alternative for adhesives used in food contact applications, such as packaging, where migratory concerns are an issue.

Abstract: Electromechanical apparatus for evacuating buildings in the event of a fire. The apparatus comprises a reel (9) that has, rolled up on it, a mooring cable (36) that longitudinally passes through the inside of a rigid tube (1), ending in an evacuation harness, where an individual will be secured. The weight of the individual makes it possible to rock said tube (1) and a lever (14) that has a braking disc (4) and which acts on a brake disc (5) that allows, by means of a mechanical transmission system, the braking and/or retention of the reel (9) and consequently the descent of the individual. There is a radio-control unit (74) and a standalone electric and electronic safety system (74, 75, 76 and 77) that is activated when the speed of descent of the individual is too great. The apparatus allows evacuation and can be reused, once used. The apparatus carries away, brakes, retains and evacuates the individual making use of the electromechanical apparatus.

Patent CA-2873041-A1 (CA)
Title: Semi-continuous acidulation process
Inventor: BOWLES ROBERT E
IPC: C11B13/00
Filed: 2013-05-02
Abstract: A semi-continuous acidulation process for converting tall oil soap to crude tall oil is disclosed. Reactants are continuously mixed, and the product mixture is continuously transferred to a settling tank having a conical lower section and a capacity at least 25 times that of the mixer. Batches settle to give a solid phase comprising calcium sulfate, a clean spent acid phase, a dirty spent acid phase, and a crude tall oil phase. Each phase is removed sequentially through a port at or near the bottom of the settling tank. Compared with traditional batch acidulation, continuous mixing minimizes the corrosive environment and enables the use of less expensive materials for the settling tank. Sequential removal of four phases from one port allows calcium sulfate to be purged from every batch, permits clean separation of clean spent acid from dirty spent acid, and enables clean recovery of tall oil. Compared with processes that isolate product continuously, inherent difficulties in using centrifuges or continuous decanters to separate four phases are avoided. The process facilitates generation of clean alkaline brine and integration of new soap washing methods that enable improved conversion yields of CTO and better removal of calcium from the soap.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to methods and apparatuses for generating ice. In one embodiment, a material is introduced to water, and the temperature of the combination of the water and the material is lowered until ice forms, the formed ice having a higher albedo than it would have had if the step of lowering the temperature had been carried out on the water without first carrying out the step of introducing the material. In one embodiment, the material is selected such that an aqueous solution of the material is alkaline. In another embodiment, a material is introduced to water, and the temperature of the combination of the water and the material is lowered until ice forms, the ice forming at a faster rate than the rate at which it would have formed if the material had not been introduced to the water.

Inventor: BARTHELAT FRANCOIS
IPC: B32B37/14
Filed: 2015-02-27
Abstract: Highly mineralized natural materials often boast unusual combinations of stiffness, strength and toughness currently unmatched by today's engineering materials.  Beneficially, according to the embodiments of the invention, these unusual combinations can be introduced into ceramics, glasses, and crystal materials, for example by the introduction of patterns of weaker interfaces with simple or intricate architectures, which channel propagating cracks into toughening configurations. Further, such deliberately-introduced weaker interfaces, such as exploiting three-dimensional arrays of laser-generated microcracks, can deflect and guide larger incoming cracks. Addition of interlocking interfaces and flexible materials provide further energy dissipation and toughening mechanism, by channeling cracks into interlocking configurations and ligament-like pullout mechanisms. Such biomimetic materials, based on carefully architectured interfaces, provide a new pathway to toughening hard and brittle materials.

IPC: C07C29/145
Filed: 2013-10-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for obtaining a high yield of sugar alcohols containing five to six carbon atoms from cellulose-containing materials. In a first step the starting materials (e.g. microcrystalline cellulose, alpha-cellulose, wood and cellulose-containing residues, such as sugar cane bagasse or wood shavings) and an acid are brought into close contact with the substrates by an impregnation carried out in the liquid or gaseous phase. In addition, in a second step the starting materials covered with acid and dried are brought into contact by the action of mechanical energy such that the cellulose-containing materials are degraded into water-soluble products. Subsequently, in a third step, sugar alcohols having five to six carbon atoms are obtained in a high yield and in high selectivity from the water-soluble products in aqueous solution by hydrolytic hydration by means of a metal-containing catalyst under hydrogen pressure.
