Abstract: This invention includes a hydraulic pump (9), a working implement (107) having a lift cylinder (13) driven by a hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pump (9), an operating device (104) for operating the working implement (107), a traveling motor (7) for driving wheels, and a main controller (100). When the lift cylinder (13) fails to operate despite an extending instruction being imparted to the lift cylinder (13) via the operating device (104), the main controller (100) reduces a limit value for an increase rate of a torque required in the traveling motor (7) to a value smaller than that applied when the lift cylinder (13) operates. With this configuration, occurrence of wheel slip during lifting of an object to be carried can be reduced.

Abstract: A method and system for recovering CO2 from gasification gas, prevents the recovered CO2 from being contaminated with COS, without repeating cooling and heating operations and without increasing the steam consumption. Gasification gas being produced in a gasifier 10 and containing CO, CO2, COS and H2S is subjected to dust removal in a scrubber 20. Then, a part of the gas is subjected to a CO shift reaction, in which CO is converted into CO2, in a CO shift reactor 30. Another part of the gasification gas is not subjected to the CO shift reaction by means of a bypass 34, and is mixed with the gas after the CO shift reaction. Thereby, the temperature of the mixture gas is set at 180° C. to 300° C., and COS in the mixture gas is converted into H2S in a COS converter 40.

Abstract: A person detector detects a person in an area facing one door surface. An open/close detector detects whether the door is in an open or closed state. When a detected state of the door switches from a closed state to an open state, an open-state person detection information recorder records whether the person detector is detecting a person or not. When the state of the door detected by the open and close detection sensor switches from the open state to the closed state, a closed-state person detection information recorder records whether the person detector is detecting a person or not. A room entry and exit detector detects that there occurs an entry into the room and there occurs an exit out of the room on the basis of a content recorded by the open-state person detection information recorder and the closed-state person detection information recorder.
