  • Patent number: 11692541
    Abstract: An electric motor pump system includes a variable displacement pump, an electric motor connected to drive the variable displacement pump, a first control piston configured to limit an output pressure characteristic of the pump, and a second control piston controlled via a servo valve according to an output speed of the electric motor. In embodiments, the second piston is configured to maintain a substantially constant output flow of the pump as the output speed of the electric motor changes. With embodiments, the first and second control pistons may be configured to act on a yoke of the variable displacement pump.

  • Publication number: 20060245993
    Abstract: A process for the removal of pollutants from a combustion process and, more particularly, a process for removing pollutants such as carbon dioxide, mercury, sulphur dioxide, nitrogen compounds and oxygen compounds from a combustion process. The process includes the removal of pollutants from a combustion process that produces an emission comprising: cooling the emission to a temperature of about 200° C.; removing nitrogen, water and oxygen from the emission to produce a gas containing a concentration of pollutants; contacting the gas with an aqueous magnesium chloride solution, wherein a slurry mixture is formed; and cooling the gas and the slurry mixture, wherein hydrochloric acid vapour and a sludge are formed.

  • Publication number: 20060102282
    Abstract: The processing system comprises a pump assembly, a bypass assembly, and a processing chamber, which together form a circulation path. The bypass assembly is configured so that in a first mode, a filter does not form part of the circulation path, and in a second mode the filter does form part of the circulation path. Thus, the processing system is placed in the first mode when a processing material circulated over the circulation path does not need to be filtered. The processing system is placed in the second mode when a processing material circulated over the circulation path must be filtered.
