Abstract: An attenuation device for a CAN transceiver comprises two device output nodes configured to electrically couple the attenuation device via the device output nodes between two transceiver terminals of the CAN transceiver. The attenuation device is configured to change from a first device state to a second device state when a common mode voltage is applied to the device output nodes that is either greater than a first reference voltage or less than a second reference voltage that is less than the first reference voltage. The attenuation device causes a first electrical output resistance at each device output node during the first device state and causes a second electrical output resistance at each device output node during the second device state in which the second output resistance is less than the first output resistance.

Abstract: Process, reactor and burner for the gasification of a hydrocarbon fuel. The burner comprises coaxial channels for the separate supply of an oxidizer gas, a hydrocarbon fuel and a moderator gas. A coaxial channel with the smallest width is bordered by a separating wall with at least one gas exchange. The gas exchange passage can for example be formed by a retracted end of the separating wall and/or by openings in the separating wall.

Abstract: A process to prepare a synthesis gas mixture comprising hydrogen and carbon monoxide from a liquid hydrocarbon feedstock containing between 0.1 and 4 wt % ash comprises performing a partial oxidation on a hydrocarbon feed using a multi-orifice burner provided with an arrangement of separate co-annular passages, wherein the hydrocarbon flows through a passage of the burner, an oxidizer gas flows through a separate passage of the burner and wherein the passage for hydrocarbon feed and the passage for oxidizer gas are separated by a passage through which a moderator gas flows and wherein the exit velocity of the moderator gas is greater than the exit velocity of the oxidizer gas.

Abstract: A solar panel includes a stack of at least one back contacted solar cell, a first encapsulant layer and a back-sheet contact layer. The solar cell includes back side electrical contacts. The back contact sheet layer includes a patterned conductor circuit, which has contacting areas located at locations corresponding to locations of the electrical contacts on the at least one solar cell. The encapsulant layer has a pattern of openings at locations corresponding to the locations of the electrical contacts. The solar cell is arranged on top of the first encapsulant layer that is positioned on top of the back-sheet contact layer, with the rear surface of the at least one solar cell facing the patterned conductor circuit surface. Each electrical contact is connected through a corresponding opening in the first encapsulant layer with a respective corresponding contact area of the conductor circuit by an interconnecting body.

Abstract: A process to prepare a sweet crude from an ash containing and heavy fraction of a tar sand oil comprising supplying an atmospheric distillation bottoms of a tar sands originated feed to a vacuum distillation to obtain a vacuum gas oil and a vacuum bottoms and contacting the vacuum gas oil with hydrogen to obtain a sweet synthetic crude. The vacuum bottoms obtained are separated into an asphalt fraction comprising between 0.1 and 4 wt % ash and a de-asphalted oil and the asphalt fraction is fed to a burner of a gasification reactor to obtain a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide on which a water gas shift reaction is performed. Hydrogen sulphide and carbon dioxide are separated from the shifted gas in an acid removal unit thereby obtaining crude hydrogen which is purified and used to obtain the sweet synthetic crude.
