  • Publication number: 20240375041
    Abstract: A method and a system of abating carbon dioxide (CO2) and/or hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in a geological reservoir. Water is pumped or transferred from a water source to an injection well. The gasses are merged with the water under conditions where the hydraulic pressure of the water is less than the pressure of CO2 and/or H2S gas at the merging point. The water with CO2 and/or H2S gas bubbles is transferred further downwardly at a certain velocity higher than the upward flow velocity of said CO2 and/or H2S gas bubbles ensuring downward movement of gas bubbles resulting in full dissolution of said CO2 and/or H2S in the water due to elevating pressure.

  • Patent number: 12137715
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flow cell having a tube piece which extends along a longitudinal axis and within which a first electrode is coaxially arranged. The tube piece is formed by a first tube section and by a second tube section and by a second electrode which is arranged between the first and the second tube sections and which is circumferentially closed, so that its inner surface forms a part of the tube piece.

  • Publication number: 20240090084
    Abstract: A device for applying electric current to mass. The device includes a vessel having a cylindrical wall with a stirrer arranged in the vessel. The stirrer is mounted on a first end of a rotationally driven stirrer shaft. The stirrer shaft with a spacing is enclosed by a first electrode. The first electrode is immobile and fixed to a lid arranged to cover an open cross-section of the vessel. The cylindrical wall forms a second electrode, wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are connectable to opposite polarities of a current source.

  • Publication number: 20230134617
    Abstract: A device having a first electrode and a second electrode arranged at a distance therefrom along the surface of the workpiece. At least the first electrode is arranged at a distance from the workpiece, which is preferably a foodstuff, and the distance is filled and bridged by a conductive liquid. The conductive liquid projects over the first electrode and the second electrode and establishes electrical contact of each electrode with the workpiece. The conductive liquid has the advantage, e.g. compared to a rigid contact surface, that an electrical contact is established independently of the surface shape of the workpiece, without the electrode itself having to be in contact with the workpiece.

  • Publication number: 20230009648
    Abstract: A device for continuously heating foodstuffs includes a channel arranged to receive an electrically conductive liquid. Side walls of the channel include mutually opposite electrodes that are arranged in pairs which are connected to a current source. A first pair of mutually the opposite electrodes is arranged on the side walls of the channel at a distance along the channel. A second pair of mutually opposite electrodes is arranged in electrical contact with the interior of the channel. Each pair of electrodes is electrically connected to a respective one of separate secondary windings of a transformer of the current source. The secondary windings are arranged to be excited by at least one primary winding.

  • Patent number: 11503844
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for continuously processing foodstuffs with pulsed electric fields, comprising a conveyor belt that is guided in a housing. The conveyor belt guide encompasses the longitudinal edges of the conveyor belt respectively in a recess that is arranged e.g. within the side walls of the housing and is preferably formed by the housing floor and the lateral insulator panels mounted at a distance from the housing floor on the inner side of the side walls or are formed as a groove within the lateral insulator panels. The upper strand of the conveyor belt is guided through the guides above the housing floor within the housing.

  • Publication number: 20220028646
    Abstract: The invention describes a compact device having, in a housing, a chamber which is closable by a flap, one wall of which chamber having at least one first guidance element and at least one first fixation element, as well as two spaced-apart first contact elements which are fixedly connected to electrical connectors of a generator by electrical leads. Further, the device has at least one carrier having at least one second guidance element which, when the carrier is arranged against the wall, engages the first guidance elements and aligns the carrier in a predetermined position with respect to the wall. The carrier has at least one second fixation element that is aligned to match with the at least one first fixation element upon engagement of the first and second guidance elements, such that, when the first and second guidance elements are engaged, the first and second fixation elements are aligned to match one another and can be secured to one another.
