Abstract: A modular fuel cell system includes a base, at least four power modules arranged in a row on the base, and a fuel processing module and power conditioning module arranged on at least one end of the row on the base. Each power module includes a separate cabinet which contains at least one fuel cell stack located in a hot box. The power modules are electrically and fluidly connected to the at least one fuel processing and power conditioning modules through the base.

Abstract: Improvement in processes for the selective removal of sulfur dioxide with respect to carbon dioxide from a gas mixture containing same wherein the gas mixture is contacted with an aqueous absorbent solution, such as an alkanolamine, an alkali metal or ammonium hydroxide, or sulfites thereof, to remove sulfur dioxide from the gas mixture and form a SO.sub.2 -rich aqueous absorbent solution which is moved to a stripping zone where sulfur dioxide is driven off to form a SO.sub.2 -depleted aqueous absorbent solution which is recycled and re-contacted with the gas mixture, the improvement comprising removing sulfur oxyanions of heat stable salts which accumulate in the aqueous absorbent solution by contacting it with an anion exchange resin having bisulfite anions displaceable by the heat stable sulfur oxyanions whereby the bisulfite anions of the resin are replaced by the heat stable divalent sulfur oxyanions which are thus taken out of the solution.

Abstract: Process for the recovery of sulfur from gas streams containing hydrogen sulfide comprising the steps of reacting a portion of the hydrogen sulfide with sulfur dioxide in a Claus reaction to form sulfur, removing the sulfur, incinerating the residual hydrogen sulfide in the resulting gas stream to sulfur dioxide, absorbing the sulfur dioxide in the incinerated gas stream in an aqueous absorbent solution, stripping the sulfur dioxide from the aqueous absorbent solution, recycling the stripped sulfur dioxide for reaction with succeeding portions of hydrogen sulfide in the incoming gas stream, re-contacting the stripped aqueous absorbent solution with succeeding portions of the incinerated gas stream to absorb additional sulfur dioxide, regenerating a portion of the aqueous absorbent solution to remove heat stable sulfur oxyanions therefrom by contacting said solution with an anion exchange resin and re-contacting the regenerated aqueous absorbent solution with said incinerated gas stream to absorb additional sul

Abstract: An article conveyor comprises a pair of belts, each trained around a pair of pulleys, with straight stretches between said pulleys. The four straight belt stretches are coplanar and parallel. One pulley for each belt is so driven that the belts move in opposite orbital directions. Corresponding stretches of the two belts are confined to lengthwise motion, as by additional freely rotatable pulleys or by a rail-like member for each of said stretches having a groove in which the belt is slidingly received. Each article carrier has belt engaging portions with long, laterally oppositely opening grooves in which said belt stretches are received, so that said stretches support and drive the carrier.
