20120129958METHOD AND PLANT FOR THE PRODUCTION OF METHANOL - A method for producing methanol from a synthesis gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxides with a high content of inert components includes passing the synthesis gas through a synthesis reactor so as to catalytically convert a part of the carbon oxides to methanol. The methanol is separated from the obtained mixture from the reactor. The mixture liberated from methanol is separated into a cycle stream and a purge stream. The cycle stream is recirculated so as to form a synthesis circle and combined with a fresh gas stream including hydrogen and carbon oxides before being charged into the synthesis reactor. The purge stream is supplied to a secondary reactor so as to catalytically convert a further part of the hydrogen and carbon oxides to methanol. Further methanol is separated the obtained mixture including synthesis gas, inert components and methanol vapor.05-24-2012

20090105356PROCESS AND PLANT FOR PRODUCING SYNTHESIS GAS - When producing synthesis gas from a starting material containing hydrocarbons, in particular natural gas, a feed stream of the starting material is divided into a first partial stream and a second partial stream. The first partial stream is supplied to a steam reformer (04-23-2009
20110065966PROCESS AND PLANT FOR PRODUCING METHANOL - In the production of methanol from a synthesis gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxides, the synthesis gas is passed through a first, preferably water-cooled reactor, in which a part of the carbon oxides is catalytically converted to methanol. The obtained mixture containing synthesis gas and methanol vapor is supplied to a second, preferably gas-cooled reactor, in which a further part of the carbon oxides is converted to methanol. Subsequently, methanol is separated from the synthesis gas, and the synthesis gas is recirculated to the first reactor. To achieve a maximum methanol yield even with an aged catalyst, a partial stream of the synthesis gas is guided past the first reactor and introduced directly into the second reactor.03-17-2011

20110078890METHOD FOR ALIGNING AN ELONGATED COMPONENT - A method for aligning an elongated component that is to be fitted, with at least two component segments, into two coaxial installation points (A/B; C) spaced apart from one another. In this context, the coaxiality of the component segments is checked and any existing deviation from coaxiality is measured. At least one material fusion area, limited radially and in a circumferential direction, is generated in a surface region of the component located between the component segments, at a magnitude such that as a result of the axial shrinkage ensuing upon cooling of the material fusion area, coaxiality of the component segments is produced at least within tolerable limits.04-07-2011
20110095071METHOD FOR POSITIONING TWO COMPONENTS USING TACK WELDS CROSSING THE JOINT LINE - The invention relates to a method for positioning two components to be joined to each other along a common joint line. According to the invention, the two components are connected to each other by limited-length tack welds firmly connecting the two components, particularly by way of bonding, to each other. In order to obtain reliable and robust positioning of the components for tacking during the joining process, without requiring extensive production apparatuses, such as is required for the high-precision setting of the focal point of the welding laser relative to the joint line, the tack welds are designed such that they cross the joint line.04-28-2011
20120061357WELDING METHOD INCLUDING WELDING AS A FUNCTION OF AN ASCERTAINED WELDING DISTORTION; WELDING DEVICE INCLUDING A DETECTION UNIT FOR DETECTING A MISALIGNMENT OF THE WORKPIECES; JOINED PART - In a laser welding method for joining a first workpiece to a second workpiece, the first and the second workpieces are brought into contact with each other in a first method step, an intended welding distortion is ascertained in a second method step, and the first and the second workpieces are welded together in a third method step as a function of the welding distortion.03-15-2012

20120012022DEVICE AND METHOD FOR WARDING OFF OBJECTS APPROACHING A SHIP UNDER OR ON WATER - A device is provided for warding off objects approaching a ship under or on water by using ammunition bodies to be detonated below the water surface, the device comprising: an ignition device programmable to the water depth at which ignition is to be carried out automatically. In order to selectively ward off objects approaching the ship, in the event of the presumption of a threat, the device may detect both the distance and the direction of the object approaching using an underwater positioning system, and transmitting the data to the actuators of a launching device of an ammunition launcher that is disposed on the ship, and positioned about two axes via a firing guide computer so that, after firing a respective ammunition body, the same strikes the water surface above the object at a precisely predefined region, or at a predetermined distance from the object.01-19-2012

20090204932EQUIVALENCE VERIFICATION BETWEEN TRANSACTION LEVEL MODELS AND RTL AT THE EXAMPLE TO PROCESSORS - A method for formally verifying the equivalence of an architecture description with an implementation description. The method comprises the steps of reading an implementation description, reading an architecture description, demonstrating that during execution of a same program with same initial values an architecture sequence of data transfers described by the architecture description is mappable to an implementation sequence of data transfers implemented by the implementation description, such that the mapping is bijective and ensures that the temporal order of the architecture sequence of data transfers corresponds to the temporal order of the implementation sequence of data transfers, and outputting a result of the verification of the equivalence of the architecture description with the implementation description.08-13-2009

20100160149METHOD OF ACTIVATING OR REGENERATING A HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIAL - The present invention concerns a method of activating or regenerating a hydrogen storage material which contains at least one metal hydride. The at least one metal hydride is brought into contact with an inert solvent and the inert solvent is subsequently removed again. After contacting with and removal of the inert solvent, there is not only an increase in the reaction rate but surprisingly the hydrogenation also proceeds more completely.06-24-2010
