Abstract: The present disclosure relates in its first aspect to a process of converting a stream comprising methane into chemicals, said process being remarkable in that it comprises the steps of providing a first stream (1, 5, 11) comprising methane, providing a second stream (79) which is a bromine-rich stream, putting into contact said first stream (15) with said second stream (79) to obtain a third stream (21) comprising at least unreacted methane, methyl bromide, dibromomethane, and hydrogen bromide and removing said dibromomethane from said third stream (21), to produce a dibromomethane stream (103) and a fourth stream (27) comprising unreacted methane, methyl bromide and hydrogen bromide; wherein the fourth stream (27) is converted into chemicals. In its second aspect, the present disclosure concerns an installation for carrying out the process of the first aspect.

Abstract: The disclosure relates in its first aspect to a process of conversion of a gaseous stream comprising methane into hydrogen (51) and carbon (25), the process is remarkable in that it comprises a step (a) of providing a first gaseous stream (3, 7); a step (b) of bromination and synthesis in which the first gaseous stream (3, 7) is put in contact with a second stream (53) comprising bromine resulting in the formation of a third stream (15) comprising methyl bromides and hydrogen bromide, and of a fourth stream (25) comprising carbon including graphite and/or carbon black; a step (c) of separation performed on the third stream (15) to recover a hydrogen bromide-rich stream (41) which is then oxidized in a step (d) to produce a stream (51) comprising hydrogen. The second aspect relates to the installation for performing the process of the first aspect and the third aspect concerns the use of bromine in such process.

Abstract: Visual inspection of an interior bottom of a borehole by means of measuring the sediment thickness at the bottom. An inspection device to be lowered in the borehole and then to be retrieved. The bottom sediment thickness is marked on the piston by a collar attached to the piston.

Abstract: A papermakers's fabric which includes a system of CD yarns including a plurality of CD yarns and a system of MD yarns. The system of MD yarns further includes a first subsystem of MD yarns and a second subsystem of MD yarns, which are in a vertically stacked relationship with one another. The first subsystem of MD yarns includes sheds having at least two MD yarns with substantially similar aspect ratios. The aspect ratio of the MD yarns in the second subsystem of MD yarns is greater than that of the MD yarns in the first subsystem of MD yarns. All of the yarns the first and second subsystems of MD yarns are interwoven with the CD yarns of the CD yarn system in a repeat weave pattern. Seaming loops are formed using only MD yarns from the first subsystem of MD yarns.
