Abstract: A method for controlling an injection process of an engine that is configured to operate with multiple types of fuels is disclosed. The method may comprise the steps of receiving a fuel amount request indicating a requested amount of fuel to be delivered, receiving at least one physical parameter indicating the type of fuel provided to operate the engine, providing a map comprising a control parameter in dependence of the physical parameter, reading the control parameter associated with the received physical parameter, determining an injection parameter for the injection process based on the control parameter and the requested amount of fuel, and operating the engine based on the injection parameter.

Abstract: A process is described for the separation of fluorinated plastic particles from a mixture of solid particles of similar specific gravity. The process comprises mixing the particles with water, adding air to create bubbles, and generating two or more product streams, one of which floats and the other which sinks. The floating stream is enriched in fluoropolymer particles. Per pass yield and selectivity of fluorinated plastics are enhanced by the addition of a carboxylic acid to the froth flotation medium.

Abstract: A process for the separation of a multiple domain solid feedstock such as that derived from ASR, WSR, and/or ESR is disclosed which comprises granulating the feedstock to produce particles each of substantially a single domain, with each type of particle having a different density. The particles are introduced into a suitable aqueous salt solution. Aqueous salt solutions containing cations comprising sodium, calcium and ammonium, and anions comprising nitrate, bromide, and chloride are useful. A dispersion mixer having a high shear and/or turbulent zone is utilized to disperse agglomerated particles and a quiescent hydrogravity tank is utilized to effect binary separation of the mixture of particles into a stream with a higher average specific gravity, and a stream with a lower average specific gravity. A higher degree of product purity can be obtained by subjecting either of the product streams from the first hydrogravity stage to additional stages of hydrogravity separation.

Abstract: Hydrogravity separation of a multiple domain solid feedstock is disclosed which comprises granulating the feedstock to produce particles each of substantially a single domain, with each type of particle having a different density. The particles are slurried into a suitable fluid. A dispersion mixer having a high shear and/or turbulent zone is utilized to disperse agglomerated particles and a quiescent hydrogravity tank is utilized to effect binary separation of the mixture of particles into a stream with a higher average specific gravity, and a stream with a lower average specific gravity. A high degree of product purity is obtained by feeding one or both of the initial product streams to a collection of dispersion mixer/hydrogravity tank units using a fluid of substantially the same specific gravity.

Abstract: The hydrogravity separation of a multiple domain solid feedstock comprises granulating the feedstock to produce particles substantially of individual domain components having different densities. A dispersion mixer having a high shear and/or turbulent zone is utilized to disperse agglomerated particles and a quiescent hydrogravity tank is utilized to effect binary separation of one or more of the heaviest or one or more of the lightest feedstock components by utilizing an aqueous solution having a specific gravity intermediate of the various components. A high degree of purity is obtained by feeding particles of a selected component to a plurality of sequential dispersion mixers and hydrogravity separation tanks. In a similar manners remaining thermoplastic particle components can be selectively removed and purified.
