20100076658METHOD FOR CONTROLLING CONSTANT-PRESSURE FLUID - A method for controlling a constant-pressure fluid enables an inverter with a build-in controller to control rotation speed of a pump to achieve constant-pressure control thereof. In the control method, a pressure feedback value of output flow of the pump is measured and is compared with a pressure reference value to produce an error pressure value. Afterward, an operation condition of the pump, such as an abnormal handling condition, a deceleration standby handling condition, or an acceleration condition, is determined according to the pressure error value to shut down or re-start up the pump after a delay time. Hence, the control method can avoid frequently starting up or shutting down the inverter. Therefore, the power consumption and the operation cost are reduced. The use life of the pump prolongs and constant-pressure control for the pump can be implemented.03-25-2010

20090014313Low-energy extractive distillation process for dehydration of aqueous ethanol - An energy-efficient extractive distillation process for producing anhydrous ethanol from aqueous/ethanol feeds containing any range of ethanol employs an extractive distillation column (EDC) that operates under no or greatly reduced liquid reflux conditions. The EDC can be incorporated into an integrated process for producing anhydrous ethanol used for gasoline blending from fermentation broth. By using a high-boiling extractive distillation solvent, no solvent is entrained by the vapor phase to the EDC overhead stream, even under no liquid reflux conditions. The energy requirement and severity of the EDC can be further improved by limiting ethanol recovery in the EDC. In this partial ethanol recovery design, ethanol which remains in the aqueous stream from the EDC is recovered in a post-distillation column or the aqueous stream is recycled to a front-end pre-distillation column where the ethanol is readily recovered since the VLE curve for ethanol/water is extremely favorable for distillation.01-15-2009
20090105514Extractive distillation processes using water-soluble extractive solvents - Extractive distillation processes whereby water-soluble extractive distillation (ED) solvents are regenerated and recovered employ improved operations of the extractive distillation column (EDC) so that polar hydrocarbons are recovered and purified from mixtures containing polar and less polar hydrocarbons and measurable amounts of hydrocarbons that are heavier than intended feedstock and/or polymers that are generated in the ED process. The improved process can effectively remove and recover the heavy hydrocarbons and/or remove polymer contaminants from the solvent in a closed solvent circulating loop through mild operating conditions with no additional process energy being expended. With the improved process, the overhead reflux of the EDC may be eliminated to further reduce energy consumption and to enhance the loading and performance within the upper portion of the EDC, especially when two liquid phases exists therein.04-23-2009
20090255853Novel energy efficient and throughput enhancing extractive process for aromatics recovery - An energy efficient, high throughput process for aromatics recovery can be readily implemented by revamping existing sulfolane solvent extraction facilities, or constructing new ones, so as to incorporate unique process operations involving liquid-liquid extraction and extractive distillation. Current industrial sulfolane solvent based liquid-liquid extraction processes employ a liquid-liquid extraction column, an extractive stripping column, a solvent recovery column, a raffinate wash column, and a solvent regenerator. The improved process for aromatic hydrocarbon recovery from a mixture of aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons requires transformation of the extractive stripping column into a modified extractive distillation column. The revamping incorporates the unique advantages of liquid-liquid extraction and extractive distillation into one process to significantly reduce energy consumption and increase process throughput. The revamp entails essentially only piping changes and minor equipment adjustments of the original liquid-liquid extraction facility, and is therefore, reversible.10-15-2009

20090207419Large areas undistorted imaging apparatus for light speckles and method thereof - The present invention relates to a large area undistorted imaging apparatus for light speckles and a method thereof. The large area undistorted imaging apparatus for light speckles comprises a light-emitting device, a light-limiting module, and a sensor. The light-limiting module is adapted in front of the sensor, and includes a plurality of light-limiting members. The light-limiting members are arranged in a one- or two-dimensional array. When the light-emitting device emits light to an object surface, one or more rays of scattered light are produced. By means of the light-limiting module, said one or more rays of scattered light are limited, and a plurality of rays of diffraction light is produced. The plurality of rays of diffraction light within a certain angular field of view produced by a light-limiting member interferes with each other and produces a plurality of undistorted light speckles, and forms an array of light-speckle images on the sensor. Finally, according to the array of light-speckle images, a large-area and undistorted light-speckle pattern is given. Because the light-speckle pattern is undistorted and records the three-dimensional characteristics of the object surface, the undistorted imaging apparatus can be applied to computer mice, finger guiders, smart cards, three-dimensional fingerprint identification apparatuses, a machine tool or precise manipulator positioning systems.08-20-2009

20110134434METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR POSITIONING BY USING OPTICAL SPECKLE - A method and system for positioning by using optical speckle are disclosed in this invention. A highly coherent laser light irradiates a positioning template in advance to record optical speckles caused by interference by scattered light beams from the positioning template for establishing a speckle database. Furthermore, a reference point is defined to position each recorded speckle. Therefore, a coordinate with respect to the reference point corresponding to a specified speckle can be used to position a target or applied to distance measurement by the speckle database. The precision of the speckles according to the present invention is within several micrometers. Hence, it can provide high precision positioning.06-09-2011
20110141014MOVABLE TOUCHPAD WITH HIGH SENSITIVITY - A highly sensitive movable touchpad is disclosed in the present invention. It is used for laptop computers and has a slidable template for users to move so that a cursor can be controlled by the touchpad. A resistive or capacitive detecting surface can be applied for detecting users' click, double click, drag, or scroll motion on any point of the surface. Additionally, there is an optical displacement sensor provided under the slidable template for detecting surface information on the back surface of the slidable template. A sequence of images of surface movement are processed by an image processing unit. Then, relative movement information is calculated and sent to an operating system in the computer. The operating system controls the cursor with the relative movement information. The present invention uses edge detectors for dynamically controlling the cursor and calibrating location of the cursor so that positioning of the touchpad is synchronous with the cursor.06-16-2011
