  • ACOUSTIC SENSOR DEVICE WITH INTEGRATED GAS PROPERTY SENSORS
    Publication number: 20240090794
    Abstract: An acoustic sensor device including a proximal end connectable to a breathing circuit to receive breathing gases; a distal end connectable to the tracheal tube; a housing, between the proximal end and the distal end, defining a lumen through which the breathing gases flow; an acoustic generator within the housing and positioned to emit acoustic pulses into the lumen; an acoustic receiver within the housing and positioned distally from the acoustic generator; and a first gas property sensor within the housing and positioned proximally from the acoustic receiver, the first gas property comprising at least one of a flow sensor, a pressure sensor, a humidity sensor, or a temperature sensor.

  • Method of removing dimethyl ether from an olefin stream
    Patent number: 7678958
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a method of removing dimethyl ether from an olefin stream. The method includes distilling the olefin stream so that the dimethyl ether is separated out of the olefin stream with propane. The olefin stream can then be further distilled to provide a polymer grade ethylene stream and a polymer grade propylene stream, with each stream containing not greater than about 10 wppm dimethyl ether.
