| 20110162571 | MOORING SYSTEM FOR A VESSEL, AND A METHOD OF MOORING A VESSEL - A mooring system for a vessel and a method of mooring a vessel are provided. The mooring system comprises a turret structure; a swivel unit mounted on the turret structure; a bearing assembly for rotatably mounting the turret structure at deck level of the vessel such that the turret structure extends into a moonpool of the vessel and such that the swivel unit is disposed above deck level; a plurality of conduits for fluid communication disposed in the turret structure; a buoy structure retrievable into the moonpool of the vessel and connectable to the turret structure; a locking assembly for mechanically locking the buoy structure to the turret structure; and wherein the turret structure is rotatable as one to align the conduits to corresponding riser valve structures on the buoy structure prior to mechanically locking the buoy structure to the turret structure. | 07-07-2011 |

| 20110296994 | REACTOR, PLANT AND PROCESS - The present invention relates to reactor vessels such as absorbing or stripping columns that are suitable for capturing carbon dioxide from flue gas streams of fossil fuel fired powered stations such as coal fired power stations generating 100 to 500 MW. The side walls of the reactors are made of concrete or structural ceramics that are preferrably steel reinforced. The reactors are on a sufficiently large scale such that a flue gas stream in the order of at least 1,000 t/hr and normally greater than 2,000 or 3,000 t/hr can be scrubbed of carbon dioxide in a single absorption column and then recovered in a stripping column. The absorbing and stripping columns may be free standing structures or, alternatively, the absorbing column may be located at least partially within the stripping column. | 12-08-2011 |

| 20110195005 | PLANT AND PROCESS FOR REMOVING CARBON DIOXIDE FROM GAS STREAMS - The present invention is based on the realization that the carbon dioxide component of industrial gas streams also containing steam can be processed so to utilize either as latent and/or sensible heat the heat available from the steam component to assist in separating carbon dioxide from the remainder of the gas stream. For example, flue gases produced by power stations burning brown coal, black coal or natural gas inherently contain a useful amount of energy that can be harnessed according to the present invention. According to particular preferred forms of the invention, nitrogen and sulphur constituent such as SO | 08-11-2011 |

| 20100315080 | METAL DETECTOR - A metal detector is disclosed which comprises a transmitter arranged to generate a primary magnetic field, and at least one sensor arranged so as to sense a secondary magnetic field vector present after the transmitter has been turned off by measuring 3 substantially mutually orthogonal components of the secondary magnetic field. Each sensor is of a type arranged to sense a time-varying magnetic field. | 12-16-2010 |

| 20100158917 | Methods for diagnosing cancer and decreasing metastasis by cancer cells - The invention provides a protein that is a tumor marker protein. This protein can be used to prepare antibodies that bind to the tumor marker protein. These antibodies can be used to reduce, or eliminate metastasis by cancer cells that produce the tumor marker protein. In addition, the invention provides methods that can be used to diagnose cancer, and metastasis by cancer cells. | 06-24-2010 |
