  • Method and plant for extracting fish oil and resulting products
    Patent number: 6214396
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for extracting fish oil. The installation is characterised in that it has a flesh press (1) receiving the eviscerated headless fish forming a mixture in which the flesh press separates the flesh from the bones and the skin, a mixer (3) supplied with cold water (4) receiving the flesh, a decanter (6) receiving the flesh with water added from the mixer (3) for separating the loaded liquid phase from the flesh from which the oil has been extracted, a bagging machine (7) and means for deep-freezing the flesh (8) as well as a silo for storing the liquid phase (9) and an oil/sludge separator.

  • Engine control installation
    Patent number: 4286565
    Abstract: The exhaust gas of a diesel engine is washed and then a centrifugal separator divides the gas into an O.sub.2 enriched component and a CO.sub.2 enriched component. Additional oxygen is added to the former component and it is used by the engine for combustion purposes. Water in a pressurized tank is employed to remove CO.sub.2 from the CO.sub.2 enriched component. Thereafter the latter is fed back to the gas stream going to the engine for combustion.

  • Underwater hull or tank
    Patent number: 4282823
    Abstract: A structure for an underwater hull or tank which is required to withstand a high external pressure due to use at great immersion depths. The hull or tank is composed of one or more toric components formed of metal, which may be filled with a pressure-resistant material for added strength. The toric components are interconnected by connecting rings welded between adjacent toric components, and longitudinal connecting beams which are welded to the toric components and connecting rings.

  • Gas analyzer
    Patent number: 4280183
    Abstract: A gas analyzer for instantaneously testing the percentages of the components of a binary gas mixture comprising carbon dioxide and oxygen, or a ternary one also containing saturated steam, which is intended more particularly for the supply of fuel to an engine for submarine operation, said analyzer including a temperature test apparatus to test the temperature T of the gas mixture, a sound velocity test apparatus, comprising an ultrasonic generator receiver and phase comparator to test the sound transmission velocity V in the gas mixture and a calculator to calculate the value of the ratio V.sup.2 /T or a value proportional thereto.
