  • Air flow measurement device for fluidized bed reactor
    Patent number: 4865540
    Abstract: A fluidized bed reactor in which an air distribution plate is disposed within an enclosure for supporting a bed of particulate material including fuel. The air distribution plate includes a plurality of vertically disposed nozzles extending therethrough for receiving air from an air plenum and discharging the air in an upward direction into the bed at a velocity sufficient to fluidize the bed material and support the combustion or gasification of the fuel. A first pressure sensing device is disposed within at least one of said nozzles and a second pressure sensing device is disposed within the air plenum, whereby the rate of air flow into the bed of particulate material can be measured.

  • Flame retardant and smoke suppressant composition
    Patent number: 4859365
    Abstract: A flame retardant and smoke suppressant composition which, when admixed with a catalytic amount of a catalyst, such as methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, is curable on a substrate at ambient temperature. The composition comprises:(a) from about 20 to about 60 weight percent of an unsaturated polyester resin;(b) from about 2.5 to about 10 weight percent of an unsaturated monomer compatible with the polyester resin;(c) from about 2.5 to about 18 weight percent of antimony oxide;(d) from about 4 to about 15 weight percent iron oxide;(e) from about 30 to about 70 weight percent hydrated alumina; and(f) from about 1 to about 10 weight percent of a trialkyl phosphate.

  • Electrical pin with bend
    Patent number: 4834666
    Abstract: A connector for connecting an electrical conductor to an electrical terminal in which two integrally formed shank portion extend at an angle to each other. One shank portion is adapted to extend in a terminal and the other shank portion is adapted for connection to a conductor and extends downwardly from the first shank portion to minimize stress on the latter connection. A notch is formed in the one shank portion to secure the connector in the terminal.

  • Fluidized bed reactor and method of operating same
    Patent number: 4809623
    Abstract: A fluidized bed reactor and method of operating same, in which a gas column is formed above a fluidized bed which contains a mixture of air, the gaseous products of combustion from a fluidized bed, and particulate material entrained by the air and the gaseous products of combustion. The gas column is saturated with the particulate material of the particulate material is separated from the mixture. A portion of the separated particulate material is injected back into the bed, and the remaining portion is passed to external equipment.

  • Method of operating a fluidized bed reactor
    Patent number: 4809625
    Abstract: A method of operating a fluidized bed reactor in which a bed containing solid particulate material is fluidized by introducing air into the bed. A gas column is formed containing a mixture of the air, the gaseous products of combustion or gasification of the fuel in the bed and the particulate material entrained by the air and the gaseous products of combustion. The mixture is discharged from the vessel and the particulate material is separated from the mixture and returned to the bed. The entrainable particulate material is maintained in the bed and in the gas column in quantities sufficient to saturate the gas column. The temperature of the fluidized bed is controlled by varying the amount of air introduced into the bed.
