20080230376 | Combination of a Desalination Plant and a Salinity Gradient Power Reverse Electrodialysis Plant and Use Thereof - A desalination plant, includes a sea water intake, a desalination unit having a reverse osmosis or a thermal desalination unit, a fresh water outlet and a brine outlet. The plant also includes a salinity gradient power unit having a brine inlet, a seawater inlet and a mixed water outlet. The brine outlet is connected to the brine inlet and the salinity gradient power unit is arranged to generate an electrical current. A solar power heater is between the brine outlet and the brine inlet. A method for reducing the power consumption of a desalination plant providing fresh water and brine from sea water, includes a first step of providing a salinity gradient power unit, a next step of feeding the salinity gradient power unit with brine from the desalination plant as high salinity feed and sea water as low salinity feed. A subsequent step heats the brine with solar power prior to feeding the brine to the salinity gradient power unit, followed by the steps of generating an electrical current in the salinity gradient power unit and using the electrical current as an energy source for the desalination plant. | 09-25-2008 |
20080257717 | Process for the Surface Treatment of Hollow Parts, Tank for Implementing Such a Process, and Continuous Surface Treatment Process and Installation Using Such a Tank - The invention relates to a method for treating surfaces of hollow parts, this method being a conversion treatment such as an anodizing, and to a method according to which the hollow pieces are completely immersed inside at least one treatment tank containing a liquid, characterized in that each hollow piece is immersed while making it execute at least one rotational movement so that air bubbles likely to be created inside the tank are removed from the inner wall of the hollow part. | 10-23-2008 |
20080296150 | Device and a Method for Metal Plating - A device and a method for metallic electrolytic coating of an object of electrically conductive material, wherein the object has at least two surface portions that are desired to be coated with layers of different thicknesses. The device includes an anode. The device is designed to receive the object in such a way that the object constitutes a cathode and that, upon receipt of the object, a space is formed for receiving a liquid-absorbing material and an electrolyte for coating the object. The body of the anode includes at least two surface portions) that have different electrical conductivity and that are arranged opposite to the surface portions of the received object. | 12-04-2008 |
20090211899 | Production method of equipment which carries out decomposition and separation for a gas molecule - This technology is a workshop which is diffusing the carbon dioxide gas (CO2) contained in exhaust gas in the air, It invents for the purpose of sanctifying microbes, such as sanctification of the emission gas (especially CO2 gas) of all industries, such as a diesel engine vehicle, a large-sized generating station (thermal power), a large-sized vessel, and an airplane, and also a toxic substance of atmospheric. | 08-27-2009 |
20100025232 | RECOVERING THE COMPRESSION ENERGY IN GASEOUS HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN GENERATED FROM HIGH-PRESSURE WATER ELECTROLYSIS - Exemplary embodiments include an apparatus, and method associated therewith, for recovering the compression energy stored in hydrogen gas and oxygen gas generated by the electrolysis of water in a high-pressure water electrolyzer. The restored compression energy may be recovered and converted to a useable form to provide power to the high-pressure water electrolyzer, or alternatively to provide usable power to a coupled system that uses high-pressure hydrogen gas or oxygen gas such as a fuel cell for an electric vehicle, or both for use in providing power to the electrolyzer and to the fuel cell electric vehicle. | 02-04-2010 |
20100252420 | CONTACT RING HAVING ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE BRUSH - A conductive contact ring for an electroplating or electrodeposition process on a cylindrical surface includes a frame defining an opening through which the object can be passed and an array of electrically conductive fibers spanning the opening. The frame is electrically conductive and is connected to a DC power source in the process. Two or more contact rings can be used in a process to provide consistent electrical contact with the surface sliding therethrough. A single contact ring can have first and second groups of filaments spaced from each other along the axial length of the surface. | 10-07-2010 |
20110132746 | PRODUCTION LINE - A production line includes a number of production units, production equipments and a sliding bracket. The sliding bracket slides between the production units. Each production unit includes at least one base unit which is made in series. The at least one base unit has an enclosure. The sliding bracket and the production equipment are received in the enclosure. The production units are arranged in a configuration such as straight line, U-shaped or rectangular. | 06-09-2011 |
