Title: Sealed gas burner electrode assembly
Inventor: BAYNHAM JAMES
IPC: F24C3/10
Filed: 2001-03-09
Abstract: A gas burner assembly providing a fast and reliable spark ignition of an air/gas mixture includes a support member, mounted in a side wall aperture of the gas burner, through which an end portion of an ignition electrode extends and at least one internal flow passage for directing the mixture directly to a terminal end of the electrode at the side wall of the gas burner. The terminal end of the electrode is substantially recessed relative to the side wall at the aperture. Preferably, a plurality of annularly spaced passages are formed in the support member, with each passage being open to the electrode such that each passage is defined, at least in part, by a section of the electrode.

Title: Organic impurity removal process for bayer liquors
Inventor: HEALY STEVEN JAMES
IPC: C01F7/476
Filed: 1999-08-20
Abstract: A process for the removal of organic impurities in a Bayer process liquor in which wet and dry oxidation process are linked together in a complementary way, such that the weaknesses of each individual organic removal process become a strength of the combined process. An organics-rich liquor stream (10), such as a spent Bayer liquor, is fed to a wet oxidation process (12) to produce a first processed liquor which is depleted in organic compounds, but enriched in sodium carbonate and/or sodium oxalate. The wet-oxidised processed liquor is directed to a leach tank (18) immediately following a dry oxidation process. The dry oxidation process is typically a liquor burner (16). A substantial component of the sodium compounds in a feed slurry to the liquor burner (16) is reacted to produce a processed discharge product. The liquor burner discharge product is directed into the leach tank (18), where it dissolves in the processed liquor from the wet oxidation process (12). The resultant increase in the leach tank solutions ionic strength causes the sodium carbonate and sodium oxalate to become supersaturated, so that they precipitate from the leach tank liquor. The precipitated sodium carbonate and/or sodium oxalate are separated (20) from the leach tank liquor and recycled in a mix tank (14) provided the feed slurry to the liquor burner (16). When the wet and dry oxidation processes are combined in this way, the combined system is capable of destroying and fully causticising twice the amount of TOC as the liquor burner alone.
Patent CA-2341727-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GRANGER GARY P
IPC: C03C13/04
Filed: 1999-08-10
Abstract: L'invention concerne une préforme de fibre optique guide d'ondes et une fibre optique guide d'ondes, étirée à partir de cette dernière, une modification de la densité et donc des indices de réfraction de la couche de gainage (42) étant induite d'une manière présélectionnée, axialement le long de la préforme et de la fibre guide d'ondes associée. La modification axiale de la densité de la couche de gainage (42) est due à la fraction du volume de gainage qui est constituée d'air ou d'un verre dont la composition est différente de celle du verre de la gaine de base. La modification axiale des indices de gainage modifie la répartition de l'énergie monomode, ce qui modifie les paramètres clés relatifs à la fibre guide d'ondes, tels que l'ampleur et le signe de la dispersion, la longueur d'onde de coupure et la longueur d'onde de dispersion zéro. L'invention porte également sur des procédés de fabrication de structures possédant une couche de gainage variable axialement ainsi que sur des préformes, dont des fibres guides d'ondes étirées à partir de ces dernières, qui guident la lumière grâce à la structure cristalline opto-électronique de la longueur totale de la couche de gainage ou de segments de cette dernière.

Patent CA-2379071-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHAN ANTONIO H
IPC: G04F10/00
Filed: 2002-03-26
Abstract: In recent years, much effort has been placed on improving the performance of timing and jitter measurement devices using Delay Locked Loop (DLL) and Vernier Delay Line (VDL) techniques. However, these approaches require highly matched elements in order to reduce differential non-linearity timing errors. In an attempt to reduce the requirement on element matching, a component-invariant VDL technique is disclosed that enables the measurement device to be synthesized from an RTL description. The present invention is based on a single-stage VDL structure, which is used to mimic the behavior of a complete VDL. Furthermore, as test time is an important consideration during a production test, a method and system is provided that reduces test time at the expense of additional hardware.
