Abstract: An agricultural tillage implement is disclosed employing a series of apparatus to perform one-pass primary tillage. A coulter is the first apparatus that works the field. These coulters cut, size and part the residue without mixing it into the seedbed. Next, a tillage shank runs a point through the compaction layer to fracture and loosen the soil, providing proper soil aggregate size and air pore space relationship throughout the shank tillage profile. Next is a pair of soil-gathering blades that capture and gather the loose soil and residue together and to create a bean of a mixture of soil and residue. The last apparatus to work the field is a rotary reel that conditions the strip of soil to give ideal seed-to-soil contact and uniform berm size.

Granted: 2009-09-29
Abstract: A water-absorbing polymer having a desirably controlled moisture content with a reduced variability from lot to lot and suitable for a shaped article having good characteristics is obtained by bringing a finely divided particle of water-absorbing polymer into contact with a stream of air having a moisture content of 2-20 g/m3 so that the moisture content in the polymer particle is increased by 300 ppm by weight or more to a moisture content of 300-50,000 ppm by weight. This moisture content-controlling treatment is carried out using a closed vessel wherein the air is fed, or using a pneumatic transportation apparatus wherein the air is fed, and the transportation and moisture content-control of polymer particle are conducted simultaneously.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a downhole tool (102) for selectively opening and closing a lateral borehole extending from a primary borehole. The tool (102) comprises a body (104) incorporating a wall provided with an opening (116) extending therethrough; a deflector member (106) slidably mounted in the body (104) and having a deflecting surface (126) for deflecting, in use, downhole equipment laterally within the body (104). The deflector member (106) is slidable between an open position, in which the deflecting surface is located adjacent and facing towards said opening so that, in use, downhole equipment laterally deflected by the deflecting surface is directed through said opening, and a closed position, in which the deflecting surface is oriented relative to said opening so as to prevent downhole equipment from being laterally deflected through said opening during use. In either position, equipment may pass into the primary borehole downhole of the primary/lateral junction. The tool (102) also comprises constraining means (138, 140) for restricting movement of the whipstock relative to the body.

Title: Briquetting process
Inventor: CLARK KEITH NORMAN
IPC: C10L5/08
Filed: 2004-02-11
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: A process and system is provided for briquetting particulate matter such as moisture-containing bituminous and sub-bituminous coal. This process includes partially drying the particulate matter and feeding, the partially dried particulate matter to a briquetting apparatus (38) under conditions such that water vapour is released from the particulate matter during feeding. The particulate matter is passed through briquette forming rollers (44, 46) to form briquettes (47). The released water vapour substantially displaces or prevents the ingress of a large proportion of other gaseous components from the atmosphere surrounding an/or intermixed with the particulate matter. The particulate matter that is fed to the briquetting apparatus is surrounded by and intermixed with a gaseous component containing 70 to 100 % by volume of water vapour at the point where it enters the briquette-forming part of the briquetting apparatus, such that when the particulate matter is compressed during briquette formation, the water vapour liquefies and the pressure buildup of gaseous material in the thus-formed briquettes is minimised. This reduction in the pressure buildup of gaseous components also acts to reduce blow-back of gases as the coal fines are being formed into briquettes.
