Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système et un procédé de création de puissance et de pasteurisation d'eau. Ce système comprend un sous système de génération de puissance et un sous système de pasteurisation d'eau qui sont reliés entre eux comme suit: le sous système de génération de puissance comprend un générateur de puissance à turbine. L'air (ou un autre fluide de travail adapté) s'écoule à travers ce générateur de puissance à turbine de façon à générer de la puissance par des procédés connus. L'air est chauffé avant de s'écouler dans la turbine de façon à augmenter sa vitesse en vue d'une génération de puissance accrue. Le sous système de pasteurisation d'eau comprend un ou plusieurs échangeurs de chaleur, l'un d'entre eux au moins étant connecté de façon à recevoir le flux d'air chaud sortant de la turbine. La chaleur du flux d'air sortant de la turbine est utilisée pour pasteuriser des eaux usées plus froide présentes à l'intérieur de l'échangeur de chaleur.

Abstract: In a position control arrangement (30) for controlling the rotational position of a movable unit (2), especially for a surveying instrument, an electric motor (12) is arranged to rotate said movable unit around an axis (9) of rotation, and there are control means (31-34, 17) for enabling the motor to stop said movable unit in a desired rotational position. The motor is a direct drive motor, the shaft of which forms the axis of rotation for said movable unit, and the motor is arranged to selectively operate in either a first, normal mode for rotating the movable unit to a desired position, or in a second, friction mode for providing resistance to a forced rotation of the movable unit from a predetermined position to a new position. A control unit (36) detects the presence of a forced rotation and automatically changes the mode of operation in response thereto. There is also provided a surveying instrument having such features.(Fig.3)

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and an apparatus for reactivating lime-based sorbents and increasing the carbon dioxide-capture capacity of the sorbent in the combustion of carbon-containing fuels. The method of the present invention seeks to increase the carbon dioxide capture capacity of lime-based sorbents by applying concentrated or 100% carbon dioxide directly to a lime-based sorbent. Optionally, the lime-based sorbent may be pretreated using a hydration process after each process of carbon dioxide separation. The regenerated sorbent is carbonated in a presence of concentrated carbon dioxide and elevated temperatures. The invention is useful in reducing the need to add additional sorbent to maintain the carbonation/calcination cycle. The regenerative potential of the sorbent as manifested by the present invention leads to increased carbon dioxide-capture capacity of the sorbent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a ceiling void fan coil unit for mounting in the
ceiling void between a suspended false ceiling and a true ceiling from which the
suspended ceiling is supported. Users of ceiling void mounted fan coil units
typically require high thermal output from the units with as little noise as possible.

low noise levels. This is especially so if the fan coil inlet is adjacent to a return air
grille. A ceiling void mounted fan coil unit is disclosed comprising a main housing
22,122 having a inlet 24,124 and a plurality of outlets 26, 126, and a fan unit and
a coil unit located between the inlet and the plurality of outlets. Additionally, the

Abstract: The process involves placing a control unit under the lower side (29) of a cover (18) to moderately tighten the cover by holding the side by four angles at a preset distance of a load (CH) to maintain an interval open on the periphery during one phase of thermo-retraction. The control unit is removed just before a phase of thermal sealing of the side on a groundsheet (14). The cover is tightened to allow air to escape through the interval and to prevent vertical retreat of the lower side during a portion of the former thermo-retraction phase. An independent claim is also included for a device for packing a palletized load by means of a thermo-retractable plastic cover.
