Patent EP-2958882-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MASEL RICHARD I
IPC: C01B32/40
Filed: 2014-02-24
Abstract: An environmentally beneficial process for the production of fuels and chemicals employs carbon dioxide from a natural source or from an artificial chemical source that would otherwise be discharged into the environment. The carbon dioxide is converted to formic acid and the formic acid is then non-biologically converted to fuels and/or chemicals without the intermediate process of hydrogenating the formic acid to methanol or reacting the formic acid with ammonia to form formamide. In the present process, formic acid is converted to one of seven primary feedstocks: formaldehyde, acrylic acid, methane, ethylene, propylene, syngas, and C5-C7 carbohydrates. The formaldehyde, acrylic acid, methane, ethylene, propylene, syngas and/or short chain carbohydrates can either be used directly, or can be converted into a wealth of other products.

Abstract: A process that provides for the improvement of the properties of a distillate feedstock that has significant concentrations of nitrogen and polyaromatic compounds. The process includes a first reaction zone that uses a base metal catalyst and is operated under high pressure conditions to provide for the hydrodenitrogenation of organic nitrogen and saturation of polyaromatic compounds contained in the distillate feedstock. The first reaction zone treated effluent is separated into a heavy fraction and a lighter fraction with the heavy fraction being charged to a second reaction zone that also uses a base metal catalyst and is operated under high pressure conditions to provide for the saturation of monaromatic compounds that are contained in the heavy fraction. The inventive process provides for a high quality, low-sulfur and low-nitrogen diesel product that has a significantly lower aromatics content than the distillate feedstock and having a high value for its high Cetane Index.

Abstract: An engine is controlled in a normal mode or an idle stop mode. The ignition of a fuel-air mixture is performed in the normal mode, and the ignition of the fuel-air mixture is not performed in the idle stop mode. A detection subject that is rotated together with a crank shaft is provided at the crank shaft. At the time of the re-start of an engine, the ignition of the fuel-air mixture compressed in the first compression stroke is performed based on the detection of the detection subject by a reference angle sensor. When an operation abnormality of the reference angle sensor is not detected, the injection of the fuel is performed in a plurality of cycles right before the rotation of the crank shaft is stopped in the idle stop mode. When the operation abnormality of the reference angle sensor is detected, the injection of the fuel is not performed in the idle stop mode.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for determining an angular speed of a flywheel of an internal combustion engine. At least two measurement points are defined on the flywheel and a measurement unit is configured to receive information from the sensor on detections, when each of the at least two measurement point arrives in detection space of the sensor and points of time of the detections are determined. Furthermore, a time difference of a first detection of a measurement point and a sequential detection of the same measurement point for each of the at least two measurement points and the angular speed of the flywheel in relation to each of the at least two measurement points is calculated at least party by means of the time difference. In this way, speed values are always determined on the basis of a full rotation, so that errors caused by a different or irregular angular spacing of the markers are avoided. The invention also relates to a method for determining the angular speed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the biological denitrification of waste water, which comprises a nitrification-denitrification sequence followed by, for a first fraction of water, a post-denitrification step (6) during which an electron donor is injected into said first fraction, while a second fraction of water passes though a by-pass (5b), then is mixed with the first fraction downstream of the post-denitrification step; the first fraction of waste water is subjected, during the post-denitrification, to a nearly complete denitrification so as to exit the step at a nitrate [N-NO 3 ] concentration less than 4 mg/L, in order to minimize the production of nitrous oxide N 2 O. The by-pass rate is determined based on: a measurement (9) of the nitrate [N-NO 3 ] concentration of the water upstream of the post-denitrification, the desired nitrate [N-NO 3 ] concentration for the mixture of the two fractions downstream of the post-denitrification treatment, and the nitrate [N-NO 3 ] concentration of the first fraction at the outlet of the post-denitrification, before the mixing of the two fractions.
