摘要： The present invention provides a method of analysis which couples principle component analysis (PCA) with ToF-SIMS for obtaining surface chemical information from minerals. Statistical methods, based on the monolayer-sensitive time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) technique, combined with principal component analysis (PCA) identifies combinations of factors strongly correlated (positively or negatively) in images or spectra from sets of data. In images, PCA selects these correlations from the mass spectra recorded at each of 256×256 pixels in a selected area of particles. In the image mode, PCA provides a much better method of selecting particles by mineral phase with clearer definition of particle boundaries due to multi-variable recognition.

摘要： A pump housing that contains a pump that draws fuel from an underground storage tank containing fuel to deliver to fuel dispensers in a service station environment. The pump is coupled to a double-walled fuel pipe that carries the fuel from the pump to the fuel dispensers. The double-walled fuel piping contains an inner annular space that carries the fuel and an outer annular space that captures any leaked fuel from the inner annular space. The outer annular space is maintained through the fuel piping from the pump to the fuel dispensers so that the outer annular space can be pressurized by a pump to determine if a leak exists in the outer annular space or so that fuel leaked from the inner annular space can be captured by a leak containment chamber in the pump housing.

摘要： A method and apparatus for monitoring and determining fuel vapor recovery performance is disclosed. The dispensing of liquid fuel into a tank by a conventional gas pump nozzle naturally displaces a mixture of air and fuel ullage vapor in the tank. These displaced vapors may be recovered at the dispensing point nozzle by a vapor recovery system. A properly functioning vapor recovery system recovers approximately one unit volume of vapor for every unit volume of dispensed liquid fuel. The ratio of recovered vapor to dispensed fuel is termed the A/L ratio, which should ideally be approximately equal to one (1). The A/L ratio, and thus the proper functioning of the vapor recovery system, may be determined by measuring liquid fuel flow and return vapor flow (using a vapor flow sensor) on a nozzle-by-nozzle basis. The disclosed methods and apparatus provide for the determination of A/L ratios for individual nozzles using a reduced number of vapor flow sensors. The disclosed methods and apparatus also provide for the determination of fuel dispensing system vapor containment integrity, and the differentiation of true vapor recovery failures as opposed to false failures resulting from the refueling of vehicles provided with onboard vapor recovery systems.

The gate element (8) is supported for rotation in a correspondingly shaped recess (14) in the valve body (4, 6). In one embodiment rotation of the gate element (8) is effected by drive means comprising a first member (10) mounted for rotation in the valve body (4, 6) and a second member (12) mounted for rotation in the gate element (8), the first and second members (10, 12) being linked such that rotational movement of the first member (10) is translated into rotational movement of the gate element (8) by the second member (12). In an alternative embodiment rotation of the gate element (8) is effected by a toothed rack (82).

摘要： A glass retrofitting system with an adaptor is configured to mount a glass member to a wall or window frame. The glass member may be an upgraded insulated glass unit to replace an existing glass in a wall or window frame. The adaptor may include a mating portion (or an anchor member) which fits into an existing glazing pocket of the existing window or wall frame. The width of the existing glazing pocket may not be wide enough to accommodate the upgraded insulated glass unit. Thus, the adaptor may form a new glazing pocket suitable to hold the upgraded insulated glass unit, and the insulated glass unit may be mounted or installed into the new glazing pocket formed by the adaptor. The adaptor may be formed of low thermal conductivity material, or of a single piece or a plurality of pieces.

摘要： Certain metal and metal-like hydroxides may be added to hydrocarbons with an immiscible and/or more volatile non-hydrocarbon phase to reduce the acidic potential of hydrocarbons with respect to downstream storage, transport, and processability once the non-hydrocarbon phase is removed. These metal hydroxides reduce TAN stoichiometrically and permanently while improving the demulsibility of the oil. A particularly effective metal hydroxide is lithium hydroxide and a particularly easy solvent to remove is water.

摘要： A carbon canister to adsorb hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon air mixture in a UST system to prevent fugitive emissions due to overpressurization. The carbon canister has an inlet port at one end coupled to the UST system. An outlet port on the opposite end of the canister is connected to a flow-limiting orifice with a known calibrated flow rate that vents in a controlled fashion to the atmosphere. When UST pressure rises slightly above ambient pressure, fuel vapors and air from the UST system enters, via the inlet port, into the canister, where hydrocarbons are adsorbed onto the surface of the activated carbon. The cleansed air vents through the controlled flow outlet port to atmosphere, thereby preventing excessive positive pressure from occurring in the UST system. The activated carbon is purged of hydrocarbons by means of reverse air flow caused by negative UST pressures that occur during periods of ORVR vehicle refueling.
