  • Modular hydropower unit
    Patent number: 10876265
    Abstract: A portable hydropower module is provided for the generation of economical hydroelectric power at low-head sites, such as dams and weirs. More particularly, the portable hydropower modules are able to streamline the construction of power generation facilities and improve the economics of hydropower development for low-head sites. The portable hydropower modules may be produced off-site and then transported, such as by floating, to the designated low-head site. The portable hydropower modules may be specifically designed to efficiently facilitate the energy capabilities at the chosen low-head sites.

  • Integrated fluorine gasket manufactured by injection molding for hydrogen fuel cells
    Patent number: 9640807
    Abstract: Disclosed is an integrated fluorine gasket manufactured by injection molding for hydrogen fuel cells. In particular, a fluorine compound having a fluorine content of about 60 to 75 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of a fluoroelastomer is disposed in a gasket. The resulting fluorine gasket is integrated with a thin bipolar plate having a thickness of about 200 ?m or less to have a thickness of about 750 ?m or less by injection molding on the thin bipolar plate and by cross-linking.

  • Process for preparing linear butenes from methanol
    Patent number: 9624143
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing linear butenes from methanol. The problem addressed is that of specifying such a method in which the methanol used is converted, to the largest possible extent, into butenes. The problem is solved by combining a methanol-to-propylene process with a metathesis reaction by means of which the propene obtained from the methanol is converted into linear butenes.

  • Block-based storage device with a memory-mapped interface
    Patent number: 8898417
    Abstract: Described herein are methods for accessing a block-based storage device having a memory-mapped interface and a block interface. In one embodiment, an apparatus (e.g., block-based storage device) includes a storage array to store data and a memory-mapped interface that is coupled to the storage array. The memory-mapped interface includes memory-mapped memory space. The memory-mapped interface receives direct access requests from a host to directly access memory-mapped files. The apparatus also includes a block interface that is coupled to the storage array. The block interface receives block requests from a storage driver to access the storage array.
