Abstract: A self-erecting structure system including an external structure apparatus including a plurality of external structure modules, each module comprising a plurality of legs, an internal structure apparatus configured to be temporarily be positioned within an area bounded by the external structure apparatus, the internal structure apparatus comprising a plurality of internal structure modules, and a platform member comprising, an inner aperture through which the internal structure apparatus may pass, an internal structure locking device, a plurality of outer apertures through which legs of the external structure apparatus may pass, a plurality of external structure locking devices, a primary lifting system, and a secondary lifting system configured. One of the primary lifting system and the second lifting system may raise the internal structure apparatus until a lower end thereof can be fixedly attached to the platform member.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of linear low molecular weight alpha-olefins having 4 to 24 carbon atoms, comprising oligomerizing ethylene in an inert solvent in the presence of a catalyst system comprising: (i) zirconium carboxylate of the formula (R1COO)mZrCl4-m, wherein R1 is saturated or unsaturated aliphatic C1-C10 hydrocarbon or aromatic C6-C14 hydrocarbon and m fulfills 1?m?4, (ii) at least one aluminum compound selected from organoaluminum compounds of the formula R2nAlX3-n, wherein R2 is C1-C20 alkyl, X is chlorine, bromine or iodine, and n fulfills 1?n?2, and/or aluminoxanes, and (iii) at least two different additives selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, esters, ketones, ethers, amines, anhydrides, phosphines and sulfur compounds; as well as to a catalyst used therein.
