Title: Extraction sélective de chlorure de potassium à partir d'une liqueur finale de schoenite utilisant de l'acide tartrique comme agent d'extraction sûr, sans danger et recyclable
Inventor: MAITI PRATYUSH
IPC: C01D3/06
Filed: 2013-04-02
Abstract: Bien que le brevet US 8 182 794 enseigne la récupération de chlorure de potassium à partir de liqueur finale de schoenite (SEL) à l'aide de dipicrylamine comme agent d'extraction, et simplifie en conséquence la récupération de sulfate de potasse (SOP) à partir d'un sel mixte de kaïnite utilisant le schéma divulgué dans le brevet US 7 041 268, les risques associés avec cet agent d'extraction ont entravé l'utilisation pratique de l'invention. De nombreux autres agents d'extraction pour la récupération de potasse ont été divulgués dans l'état de la technique mais aucun n'a été trouvé approprié jusqu'ici pour une exploitation pratique. Il est décrit ici que l'ion bitartrate, et en particulier L-bitartrate, précipite du bitartrate de potassium de façon très efficace à partir de SEL avec env. 90 % d'utilisation de l'agent d'extraction. En revanche, la récupération de bitartrate de potassium directement à partir d'eaux salées marines amères est relativement beaucoup plus faible. Il est en outre décrit que ce précipité peut être traité par de l'hydroxyde de magnésium et du chlorure de magnésium pour rejeter le tartrate de magnésium avec env. 90 % de récupération tout en donnant une solution presque saturée de chlorure de potassium qui peut être utilisée pour la réaction avec la schoenite pour obtenir du SOP. Il est en outre montré que le tartrate de magnésium peut être traité par une quantité appropriée d'HCl aqueux et ajouté dans un lot subséquent de SEL pour rejeter une fois encore du bitartrate de potassium, ce qui montre la capacité à être recyclé de l'agent d'extraction. La perte globale de tartrate sur un cycle était d'env. 20 % mais le tartrate dissous restant dans les solutions de SEL appauvrie en K et de KCl peut être précipité en tant que tartrate de calcium à partir duquel de l'acide tartrique peut être récupéré par des méthodes connues, réduisant ainsi la perte d'acide tartrique par kg de KCl à < 5 g. Il est également montré que par une approche similaire, de la sève de varech contenant env. 4 % de KCl peut être concentrée à 20-22 % de KCl, avec un excellent rendement d'utilisation d'acide tartrique, et cette solution peut être utilisée de façon similaire pour une préparation de SOP. Des sels de potassium portant d'autres anions tels que sulfate, nitrate, phosphate et carbonate peuvent également être préparés à partir du bitartrate de potassium isolé.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for coding or decoding pixel blocks. According to the invention, the number of usable modes at the coder and at the decoder is limited to a subset of the set of possible coding modes and the content of this subset is regularly adapted to the content of the images of the sequence. Thus, the coder or decoder always only has a reduced number q<n of coding modes available, called available coding modes, to code or decode the current pixel block but this subset of q coding modes is regularly modified according to the pixel blocks already coded or decoded.

Abstract: Architecture generates low resolution placeholder content that preserves the usefulness of application responsiveness by preserving and displaying the structure of the content. This facilitates decreased memory requirements associated with pre-rendering structurally-intact content. The architecture enables the storing of pre-rendered content at a lower zoom level than is intended for actual display to require fewer resources, pre-rendering content at a lower zoom level to allow the application to adjust for the lower zoom level to provide more structural integrity than would be achieved rendering at full display zoom level and compressing the resulting data, stretching the pre-rendered content to the zoom level that is intended for display in order to achieve a low resolution appearance that merges directly with the full resolution content, and transitioning between low resolution content and full resolution content when the full resolution content becomes available.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a method and device for plate osteosynthesis of a bone fracture that allows angle-stable fixation of the bone fracture, while permitting elastic axial motion at the fracture site in a controlled, symmetric manner to stimulate fracture healing. Embodiments pertain to a bone plate having an outer surface and a bone-facing surface. The bone plate incorporating internal sliding elements containing a threaded receiving hole for bone screws that have a correspondingly threaded screw head. The sliding elements undergo controlled displacement parallel to the longitudinal axis of the plate but are substantially constrained against displacement perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the plate. The bone screws with threaded heads may be rigidly fixed to the threaded receiving holes in the sliding elements without compressing the bone plate onto the bone surface. Sliding elements are elastically suspended inside the bone plate and undergo dynamic motion.
