  • Device for two-dimensional imaging of scenes by microwave scanning
    Patent number: 8009116
    Abstract: For two-dimensional imaging of scenes through continuous passive or active microwave scanning, use is made of a fully mechanized directional antenna array comprising a main reflector (1), a primary radiator array (3) and a subreflector (2) having a small size in comparison to the main reflector and being tilted relative to the optical axis (7) of the directional antenna array. First drive means (8) are operative to rotate the subreflector (2) about the optical axis (7), and second drive means (17,18) are operative to move the total directional antenna array in a direction approximately vertical to the optical axis (7). The moving speed of the subreflector (2) is very high in comparison to that of the total directional antenna array.

  • Process for the selective hydrogenation of dienes in reformate flows
    Patent number: 6118034
    Abstract: In the process for the selective hydrogenation of dienes in diene-containing feed streams, a diene-containing feed stream is hydrogenated over a nickel-containing precipitated catalyst at from 40 to 100.degree. C., a pressure of from 3 to 20 bar and a WHSV (weight hourly space velocity) of from 1 to 10 kg/(l.times.h) in the presence of free hydrogen.

  • Catalytic gas-phase hydrogenation of olefins
    Patent number: 6037510
    Abstract: The gas-phase hydrogenation of a feed containing at least 50% by weight of at least one C.sub.6 -C.sub.20 -olefin with a gas containing at least hydrogen over a catalyst is carried out by a process in which the feed is introduced as a liquid into the gas.
