  • Publication number: 20050019155
    Abstract: A multi-directional air circulation device for use in a living space. The multi-directional air circulation device comprises a first housing having i) a first wall portion defining a first interior space, ii) a first air outlet, and iii) a first air directing grill adjacent to the first air outlet. At least a second housing rotatable with respect to the first housing. The second housing having i) a second a wall portion defining a second interior space, ii) a second air outlet and, and iii) a second air directing grill adjacent to the second air outlet. At least one air generator is placed in the housings and used to generate at least one air stream which is then discharged from said device as at least two independently directed air exhaust streams through the first and second air outlets into said living space.

  • Patent number: 6126814
    Abstract: A process for hydrodesulfurizing naphtha feedstream wherein the reactor inlet temperature is below the dew point of the feedstock at the reactor inlet so that the naphtha will completely vaporize within the catalyst bed. It is preferred to use a catalyst comprised of about 1 to about 10 wt. % MoO.sub.3, about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % CoO supported on a suitable support material. They are also characterized as having an average medium pore diameter from about 60 .ANG. to 200 .ANG., a Co/Mo atomic ratio of about 0.1 to about 1.0, a MoO.sub.3 surface concentration of about 0.5.times.10.sup.-4 to about 3.0.times.10.sup.-4 g MoO.sub.3 /m.sup.2, and an average particle size of less than about 2.0 mm in diameter.
