Abstract: A system for condition-based maintenance of an automated storage and retrieval system includes a framework structure with a rail system forming a three-dimensional storage grid structure for storing storage containers for storing items. The grid structure forms vertical storage columns each having a horizontal area defined by the size of an access opening between rails of the rail system that are arranged on the framework structure. The rail system provides available routes for container handling vehicles handling and transferring the storage containers to and from the storage columns. At least one container handling vehicle which has a container handling platform with a set of grippers for handling the storage containers. The grid structure includes one or more ports for extracting containers from the storage grid so that the storage containers can be picked and a service station for performing maintenance on the components of the storage and retrieval system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a continuous process for removal of acid gas, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) from a fluid stream, such as natural gas comprising mainly hydrocarbons, by means of a absorbent medium in a rotating absorption zone. Subsequently, the acid gas is desorbed in a rotating desorption zone from the absorbent medium to allow the absorbent medium to be recirculated and the acid gas is removed for storage or drying and processing. This process can be carried out continuously, as the absorption medium is re-used.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for removing and recovering CO2 from exhaust gas from a power and/or heat generating plant (a main power plant) by chemical absorption and desorption respectively, where the exhaust gas is fed to an absorber using a chemical absorbent where the CO2 is absorbed in said absorbent and a CO2-depleted exhaust gas stream is formed. The CO2 rich absorbent is further fed to a desorber where CO2 is removed from the absorbent, and the absorbent essentially free of CO2 is recirculated to the absorber and desorbed CO2 gas is discharged off. The exhaust gas is cooled and recompressed to an elevated pressure, in a compressor in a secondary power plant integrated with the main power plant, said absorber, and said desorber, before entering the absorber. The CO2-depleted exhaust gas emerging from the absorber is reheated and further expanded in an expander in said secondary power plant.

Abstract: A drop protection device for actuator devices of the type which are intended to raise and lower a load. The drop protection device includes a sleeve shaped member which, during normal operation of the actuator rotates along with a threaded spindle of the actuator. During rapid acceleration of the spindle, such as that experienced when the drive gear breaks down and the spindle rotates freely so as to cause the load to uncontrollably drop, the sleeve shaped member will, as a result of its mass inertia, be brought into contact with a stop device for preventing further rotation of the spindle. Thus, the drop protection device prevents the load from being damaged or causing damage to peripheral equipment or individuals.
