  • Patent number: 9631533
    Abstract: A method for removal of SOx and NOx from an exhaust gas that contains SOx, NOx, soot and water vapor, the exhaust gas originating from a combustion of a fuel where the combustion takes place in an internal combustion engine. The exhaust gas is passed through at least one catalytic reactor having an oxidation catalyst, in which catalytic reactor at least SO2 is converted to SO3 and NO is converted to NO2. Thereafter the exhaust gas is passed through a condenser and cooled to a temperature which is below the dew point temperature of the water in the condenser such that SO3, NO2 and water is condensed and SO3 and NO2 is dissolved into the condensed water and removed from the exhaust gas.

  • Publication number: 20160068730
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for production of photovoltaic wafers and abrasive slurries for multi-wire sawing of wafers for photovoltaic applications, and more specific to abrasive slurries which are easy to remove from the wafers after sawing, where the abrasive slurry comprises one part recycled abrasive slurry, an alkali in sufficient amount to provide a pH in the abrasive slurry mixture in the range from 6.0 to 9.0, and one part novel abrasive slurry in an amount sufficient to provide an ion content in the abrasive slurry mixture to provide an electric conductivity of less than 50 ?S/cm.

  • Publication number: 20090061285
    Abstract: Electrode material obtainable according to a process comprising the steps of: (a) providing a precursor solution or suspension of a first component, said solution or suspension containing a solvent; (b) forming particles of the first component and entrapping said particles within the pore structure of a second component by mixing and subsequently heating, drying or centrifuging a solution or suspension or powder of the second component with the precursor solution or suspension of said first component, in which said second component has a porous structure with average pore diameter of 2 to 1000 nm.

  • Publication number: 20090061278
    Abstract: Polymerised inorganic-organic precursor solution obtainable according to a process comprising the steps of (a) forming a solution of at least one metal cation and an organic compound and (b) heating the solution to a temperature between 20-300° C. to form a polymerised solution of precursor for nano-sized oxides, and (c) concluding the heating when the room temperature viscosity of the solution is from 10 to 500 mPa·s.
