  • Patent number: 9006308
    Abstract: The present invention describes a reinforcing filler for rubber comprising the synergistic combination of precipitated silica with a pore structure defined by a maximum between 25 nm and 35 nm, a total pore volume between 1.3 cm3/g and 1.6 cm3/g, and a compression factor between 1.3 10?2 and 2.3 10?2 MPa?1, and at least one crystalline alkaline silicate corresponding to the general formula of the crystalline alkaline silicates, said crystalline alkaline silicate being swelled and/or layered in the presence of an organic cationic compound in the form of ammonium salt of the +NR4 type according to the formula [CnH2n+1N(CH3)3]+. The rubber formulation obtained by this reinforcing filler composition does present a great reduction of energy dissipated in the tread without compromising the abrasion resistance and elastic modulus properties.

  • Patent number: 8915243
    Abstract: Thermal solar energy collector, in which a solar radiation absorption panel, inside which the heat-conducting fluid flows, is situated inside a parallelepipedal box, with an opening having a transparent cover at the front, which may be doubled so as to leave an atmospheric space in the middle. The rear wall of the box has a system of seals and reservoirs which are inset in the wall so that they accommodate the expansion and contraction of vertical tubes of the panel and horizontal connections by means of gentle changes in curvature of the tube bends and slight rotations of the reservoirs, with the addition of a system for filling the box with an inert gas, the pressure of which may be chosen from a range of between a thousandth of an atmosphere and one atmosphere, there being provided for this purpose an external gas circuit, with low- and high-pressure tanks, an intermediate compressor.

  • Patent number: 8899763
    Abstract: A device for concentrating solar radiation (4) with longitudinal mirrors (7) and a longitudinal receiver (1), has mirrors with a circular cross-section with a radius of curvature that is twice the transverse distance from the center (35) of each mirror to the central point (3) of the receiver. The width of the receiver is 1% of the transverse distance from the central point to the center (89) of the furthest mirror (32). The width of each mirror is determined according to the drift of the rays reflected when the mirror focuses the sun, prescribing an equal width for all mirrors, which is: equal to the width of the active face (2) of the receiver when mounted according to the meridian; and triple the width of the active face (2) of the receiver when mounted according to the parallel of latitude. The mirrors are installed in a contiguous manner and the receiver is installed at a height on columns (8).

  • Patent number: 8687557
    Abstract: Techniques for managing a registration of a roaming user terminal (116) in its IMS home network (102) based on a roaming agreement between the visited IMS network (104) and the home IMS network (102) are described. According to one embodiment of the invention, a method for managing user registrations in the first IMS network (102) is provided. The method may be performed in an I-CSCF (106) of the first IMS network and comprises the steps of determining a status change in an automatically established roaming agreement with the second IMS network; and sending, based on the determination result, roaming status update information (204) to an HSS (110) associated with the first IMS network for initiating a registration update of the user.

  • Publication number: 20130152914
    Abstract: A receiver for a solar power plant with mirrors (7) and horizontal longitudinal receivers (1) includes a rotating shaft and axis of symmetry which (14) are parallel to a longitudinal axis of the radiation receiver. The receiver is formed by a balanced expansion and pressure collector, the tubes (19) of which are grouped in a separate central bundle (20) and adjacent bundles (21 and 22), thermally insulated from one another longitudinally. Heat transfer fluid circulates first through both adjacent bundles in parallel, to then be injected into the central bundle, where the radiation intensity received is greater because of receiving the radiation from the array of mirrors focused on the midline of the active face (2) of the receiver, each bundle of tubes being able to be covered by a separate (60, 61, 62) transparent window (28).

  • Patent number: 8399228
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering energy from the organic fraction of urban solid waste comprising the following steps: a) the organic fraction is pre treated with mineral acids, preferably sulfuric acid, during which the fraction is heated by an outer thermal jacket with no steam injection or steam explosion, thereby producing a first slurry containing an insoluble solid susceptible to enzymatic attack by cellulases; b) a step comprising enzymatic hydrolysis using cellulases and simultaneous fermentation, using an ethanologenic microorganism, of the first slurry in order to obtain a second slurry containing diluted ethanol; and c) distillation of the second slurry such as to obtain wet ethanol, a recyclable liquid effluent and a solid.

  • Publication number: 20120185578
    Abstract: A technique for managing an automatically established roaming agreement between two IMS networks (102, 104) is described, wherein one IMS network (102) supports multiple proxy nodes (302, 106) at the network edge towards the other IMS network (104). A method embodiment of the technique is performed in an I-CSCF (302) of the first IMS network (102) and comprises the steps of receiving (316) a registration request of an UE (306) via a second IMS network (104); sending (324) a roaming information request indicating the second IMS network (104) to a HSS (110) associated with the first IMS network (102); receiving (326) from the HSS (110) a roaming information answer indicating information related to the roaming agreement, and forwarding (328), based on the roaming information answer, the registration request to a second I-CSCF (106) of the first IMS network (102) managing the roaming agreement.
