  • Publication number: 20230382822
    Abstract: CO2 introduced into the ground reacts with water in the moisture present in the surroundings to convert to hydrocarbon, suppressing leakage of CO2 above ground. The method for producing hydrocarbon has an introduction step for introducing CO2 into a storage site in the ground where moisture and a catalytic metal are present, the pressure is 5 MPa or higher, and the temperature is 40° C. or higher, to bring the CO2 into a subcritical state or a supercritical state, and a synthesis step for reacting the water in the moisture with the subcritical or supercritical CO2 in the storage site to synthesize hydrocarbon. The storage site is preferably a site from 800 m to 1200 m below ground. The pressure of the storage site is preferably 8 MPa or higher.

  • Publication number: 20230388867
    Abstract: An application server delivers dynamic map information to a mobile object that receives the dynamic map information, the dynamic map information being information of a dynamic map that is used for execution of fully automated driving under a specific condition. When the mobile object executes a handover from a base station capable of transmitting the dynamic map information in a first area to a base station capable of transmitting the dynamic map information in a second area, in a case where the mobile object is in fallback operation in which simultaneous communication with the base stations is unavailable, the application server delivers the dynamic map information to the mobile object via the base station and a mobile object capable of receiving the dynamic map information from the base station.

  • Patent number: 11749675
    Abstract: Between a source electrode (25) of a main device (24) and a current sensing electrode (22) of a current detection device (21), a resistor for detecting current is connected. Dielectric withstand voltage of gate insulator (36) is larger than a product of the resistor and maximal current flowing through the current detection device (21) with reverse bias. A diffusion length of a p-body region (32) of the main device (24) is shorter than that of a p-body (31) of the current detection device (21). A curvature radius at an end portion of the p-body region (32) of the main device (24) is smaller than that of the p-body (31) of the current detection device (21). As a result, at the inverse bias, electric field at the end portion of the p-body region (32) of the main device (24) becomes stronger than that of the p-body region (31) of the current detection device (21). Consequently, avalanche breakdown tends to occur earlier in the main device 24 than the current detection device (21).
