Disclosed is a device for revaporizing natural gas. Provided is a device for revaporizing natural gas hydrate pellets, comprising: a pellet charging portion for charging pellets which is formed with an upper valve and a lower valve so as to divide space for adjusting pressure; a storing portion, which communicates with the lower portion of the pellet charging portion, for receiving pellets when the lower valve is opened; a transfer screw, one end of which couples to the lower portion of the storing portion, for transferring the pellets in the storing portion; and a dissolving reaction tub, which is coupled to the other end of the transfer screw, receives pellets from the lower portion of the dissolving reaction tub, and which accommodates heating water.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including: mounting a substrate on a substrate mounting member that is disposed in a reaction container; heating the substrate at a predetermined processing temperature and supplying a first gas and a second gas to the substrate to process the substrate; stopping supply of the first gas and the second gas, and supplying an inert gas into the reaction container; and unloading the substrate to outside the reaction container.
Abstract:
A reflow oven chamber assembly that is configured to be installed within a reflow oven chamber of a reflow oven includes a chamber housing disposed within the reflow oven chamber, one or more heating elements disposed in the chamber housing, and one or more compression box assemblies disposed in the chamber housing. The compression box assembly includes a compression box housing having an intake port located adjacent the heating element, an intake duct disposed in the compression box, and a diffuser plate disposed above the intake duct. The intake duct has an inlet opening in fluid communication with the intake port of the compression box housing and an outlet opening. The compression box assembly is configured to draw heated air into the compression box housing from the reflow oven chamber through the intake port and into the inlet opening of the intake duct and exhaust air out of the outlet opening of the intake duct to the diffuser plate. A method of distributing heated air within a reflow soldering oven is further disclosed.
Abstract:
A packing layer for a structured packing which has corrugations forming open channels. Each channel includes first and second corrugation peaks bounding a first corrugation valley with each corrugation peak having an apex and the corrugation valley having a valley bottom.A spacer element is mounted on and extends along the apex of at least one corrugation peak. The spacer element has an edge which has a larger normal spacing from the valley bottom than the spacing of the apex of the corrugation peak from the valley bottom.
Abstract:
A reactor for hydrogenation of a silicon tetrahalide and metallurgical grade silicon to trihalosilane includes a bed of metallurgical silicon particles, one or more gas entry ports, one or more solids entry ports, one or more solids drains and one or more ports for removing the trihalosilane from the reactor. Fresh surfaces are generated on the bed particles by internal grinding and abrasion as a result of entraining feed silicon particles in a silicon tetrahalide/hydrogen feed stream entering the reactor and impinging that stream on the bed of silicon particles. This has the advantages of higher yield of the trihalosilane, higher burnup rate of the MGS, removal of spent MGS as a fine dust carryover in the trihalosilane effluent leaving the reactor and longer times between shutdowns for bed removal.
Abstract:
A nitride single crystal is produced using a growth solution 7 containing an easily oxidizable material. A crucible 1 for storing the growth solution 7, a pressure vessel for storing the crucible and charging an atmosphere containing at least nitrogen, and an oxygen absorber 14, 15 disposed inside the pressure vessel and outside the crucible 1 are used to grow the nitride single crystal.
Abstract:
Autoclaves with combined airflow to provide controllable heating or cooling of parts being processed are disclosed. Gas flow along the autoclave is provided in one or more duct areas (48,52), with a plurality of duct valves (50) along the duct (48,52) controllably diverting the gas into the working area of the autoclave. In a fully configured autoclave, duct valves (50) divert gas flowing from the fan or blower (38) from the ceiling, sides and floor of an autoclave to provide a controllable, three dimensional, air flow in the working area of the autoclave. Control of the duct valves (50) may be manual or automatic, with individual or ganged duct valve control. Computer control based on temperature sensor on parts in the working area of the autoclave may be used to provide uniform heating or cooling, or intentional non-uniform heating or cooling rates. Various embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
A support for structural components that are subjected to a thermal treatment process. The support includes a frame having limbs and extending therefrom a grid of intersecting strands. In order to prevent the support from warping even when subjected to strong thermal loads or variations in temperature, the frame is produced from a temperature-resistant material and the strands are produced from carbon fibers or ceramic fibers that form the grid, extending from the limbs of the frame.
Abstract:
In a process for preparing polyethylene in tube reactors with or without autoclaves, where a free-radical initiator is introduced with or without cold ethylene into a flowing ethylene- and comonomer-containing medium, rotation is generated between two streams (61, 62) to be mixed at an angle (66) or by provision of a swirl element (20, 80) in the flow cross section (27, 28). In the region of a feed point (72, 81) for a free-radical initiator, there is provided a cross-sectional constriction (63, 67, 71) at which the free-radical initiator is introduced through an optimized off-center outlet opening (44) of an introduction finger (40) into the rotating flow (61, 62, 70).
Abstract:
A method for oxidizing organic matter contained in an aqueous effluent and an installation for implementing the method. The method comprises the following steps: injecting into a tubular body the aqueous effluent; bringing the aqueous effluent to a pressure P1, corresponding to the critical pressure of the aqueous effluent; bringing the aqueous effluent to a temperature T1; and injecting into the tubular body at n points spaced apart from one another, n fractions of at least an oxidizing composition, so that a portion of the thermal energy produced by the oxidation reaction increases the temperature of the reaction mixture from said temperature T1 to temperature T2>T1 according to an increasing curve, whereby the organic matter is oxidized, the reaction mixture continuously developing from a sub-critical liquid state to the supercritical domain.
