  • Patent number: 7662215
    Abstract: A method for removing sulfur-containing compounds is provided. In one embodiment, the method includes selectively separating a feed stream (118) comprising carbon dioxide and one or more sulfur-containing compounds, including hydrogen sulfide, at conditions sufficient to produce a first stream (122) comprising carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide and a second stream (124) comprising carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. A molar ratio of carbon dioxide to hydrogen sulfide in the first stream is greater than a molar ratio of carbon dioxide to hydrogen sulfide in the second stream, and a molar ratio of hydrogen sulfide in the first stream to hydrogen sulfide in the second stream is about 0.005 or more.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6629405
    Abstract: The instant invention is a western style stirrup with a plurality of internal springs to lessen the normal vibration, impact and shock normally encountered when riding a horse. Four springs are mounted internally to the stirrup. The spring apparatus is connected to a riser by means of a hook end on the springs. The riser is connected through a connection means, weld, threaded or non-threaded connection means, to a riser bar. The riser bar is the portion of the instant invention that is connected to the saddle through the common leatherwork used in saddles. The function of the riser bar is to transfer force from the stirrup to the saddle. The four internal springs in the stirrup transfer the force from the foot of the rider via the stirrup body to the riser bar.
