20080317651 | 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 | 12-25-2008 |

20150030523 | CARBON DIOXIDE CHEMICAL SEQUESTRATION FROM INDUSTRIAL EMISSIONS BY CARBONATION - Processes, methods, system and uses in relation to chemical sequestration of carbon dioxide from a carbon dioxide containing gas by carbonation of an alkaline earth metal containing material. The carbon dioxide containing gas is contacted with an aqueous slurry in a carbonation unit for carbonation of at least a portion of the alkaline earth metal to produce a carbon dioxide depleted gas and a carbonate loaded slurry which is substantially exempt of precipitated alkaline earth. metal carbonates, The carbonate loaded slurry is then separated into an aqueous phase and a solid phase; and the aqueous phase is supplied to a precipitation unit for precipitating alkaline earth metal carbonates. The carbonation stage may be performed at a carbonation temperature between about 10° C. and about 40° C. and a carbonation pressure between about 1 bar and about 20 bars. The solid phase may be recycled to the carbonation stage. | 01-29-2015 |

20100313758 | GAS ABSORPTION MEMBRANES AND THE MANUFACTURE THEREOF - A membrane is used for separating carbon dioxide from a gas phase. The membrane includes a substrate having micro-pores that extend through the substrate and a thin hydrophobic coating on one side of the substrate in which the pores of the substrate are substantially unobstructed by the coating so that the gas phase can penetrate the pores. The coating opposes or substantially resists a liquid solvent for absorbing carbon dioxide from penetrating the pores of the membrane from the side having the coating. The membrane may also be used for separating carbon dioxide in a flue gas of a coal fired power station. Further, the coating may be relatively inert to the liquid solvent compared to the substrate. | 12-16-2010 |

20100313752 | GAS SEPARATION MEMBRANES AND PROCESSES FOR THE MANUFACTURE THEREOF - The present invention relates to gas separation membranes for separating carbon dioxide from other gas species, polymer compositions suitable for this application, and processes for the manufacture thereof. In particular, the present invention relates polymeric compositions comprising a host polymer that is permeable to the targeted gas species, such as carbon dioxide and has a selectivity for the target gas species over other gas species. The polymeric composition also comprises domains of a polymeric material that are, for example at least 0.5 nm in diameter and that have a higher permeability for the targeted gas compared to the host polymer. The present invention can provide membranes that have a permeability and selectivity above the Robeson's upper bound. | 12-16-2010 |
20130098126 | PROCESS AND PLANT FOR REMOVING ACID GASES - The present invention relates to a process and plant for removing acid gases such as carbon dioxide, sulphur containing compounds and nitrogen containing compounds from gas streams including high and low pressure gas streams. A solvent solution containing alkali carbonates absorbs the acid gases including carbon dioxide and either one or both of sulphur and/or nitrogen containing compounds. The bicarbonate is regenerated into a carbonate form to provide a gas stream rich in carbon dioxide, and sulphur and/or nitrogen containing compounds are recovered. | 04-25-2013 |

20120008803 | AUDIO PROCESSING WITH TIME ADVANCED INSERTED PAYLOAD SIGNAL - An audio processing apparatus for modifying a primary audio signal includes a modulator that increases or decreases a level of a noise signal generated by a noise generator, in response to an increase or a decrease of a detected signal level of the primary audio signal, to generate a modulated noise signal. The apparatus further includes a combiner that combines the primary audio signal and the modulated noise signal. The modulator operates, with respect to a signal delayer, to time-advance a decrease in the level of said noise signal based on a corresponding decrease in the signal level of the primary audio signal. | 01-12-2012 |

20080275697 | Audio Processing - An audio processing apparatus for processing two sampled audio signals to detect a temporal position of one of the audio signals with respect to the other. The apparatus detects audio power characteristics of each signal in respect of successive continuous temporal portions of each of the two signals, the portions having identical lengths and each portion including at least two audio samples, and correlates the detected audio power characteristics in respect of the two audio signals to establish a most likely temporal offset between the two audio signals. | 11-06-2008 |

20080273707 | Audio Processing - An audio processing apparatus in which two audio signals are compared to establish differences between the two audio signals. The apparatus derives, from the two audio signals, a transform response representing a relationship between the two audio signals; applies the transform response to one of the audio signals so as to generate a transformed signal which is more like the other audio signal; and detects a difference signal representing differences between the transformed audio signal and the other audio signal. | 11-06-2008 |
