  • Publication number: 20240097152
    Abstract: In an electrochemical device of an embodiment, a cell stack has a spacer disposed to be arranged next to an insulating sealing member in a direction orthogonal to a stack direction. A plurality of the spacers are arranged in the stack direction between a pair of end plates, and the spacer is interposed between a pair of separators adjacently arranged in the stack direction. The spacer is formed of a material whose thickness reduction ratio when an operation of the electrochemical device is executed is smaller than that of the insulating sealing member. Before the execution of the operation of the electrochemical device, the thickness of the spacer is thinner than the thickness of the insulating sealing member. Further, the thickness of the spacer keeps a state of being equal to or less than the thickness of the insulating sealing member when the operation of the electrochemical device is executed.

  • Publication number: 20070226490
    Abstract: A communication system for allowing communications as of Internet and the like to be universally used without restricting a second user to use communication and further without requiring any significant capital investment. According to this communication system, when a terminal (104) becomes able to communicate with a network usage terminal (101) and is about to use the Internet via the network usage terminal (101), it transmits the authentication information of its user (B), and the network usage terminal (101) then transmits the authentication information of its owner (A) and the received authentication information of the user (B) to an authentication server (105). If a result of authentication is OK, the network usage terminal (101) relays the communication of the terminal (104) to the Internet (103), thereby permitting the terminal (104) to use the Internet.

  • Patent number: 6225519
    Abstract: A waste substance such as toxic compounds used in chemical weapons and industrial wastes including incineration ash is treated by a thermit reaction agent by way of supplying the waste substance to a combustion region of the thermit reaction agent or by adding way of heating the blended material comprising the waste substance and thermit reaction agent. The waste substance is fed into the combustion region of a thermit-type hypergolic fuel containing as its principal component a thermit reaction agent composed of an aluminum powder and a metal oxide powder, thus breaking down such a waste substance using the combustion heat of the thermit-type hypergolic fuel. The waste substance can be blended with a thermit reaction agent and fed into a combustion chamber so that the blended material is heated by way of a burner, so that the blended material is directly heated by a burner during the continuation of thermit reaction following the start of the thermit reaction of the thermit reaction agent.
