    摘要: A process for removing heavy metals from water is provided. The process includes the steps of introducing magnetite to a quantity of water containing heavy metal. The magnetite is mixed with the water such that at least a portion of, and preferably the majority of, the heavy metal in the water is bound to the magnetite. Once this occurs the magnetite and absorbed metal is removed from the water by application of a magnetic field. In most applications the process is achieved by flowing the water through a solid magnetized matrix, such as steel wool, such that the magnetite magnetically binds to the solid matrix. The magnetized matrix preferably has remnant magnetism, but may also be subject to an externally applied magnetic field. Once the magnetite and associated heavy metal is bound to the matrix, it can be removed and disposed of, such as by reverse water or air and water flow through the matrix. The magnetite may be formed in-situ by the addition of the necessary quantities of Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions, or pre-formed magnetite may be added, or a combination of seed and in-situ formation may be used. The invention also relates to an apparatus for performing the removal of heavy metals from water using the process outlined above.

    摘要: A submersible pumping system for downhole use in extracting fluids containing hydrocarbons from a well. In one embodiment, the pumping system comprises a rotary induction motor, a motor casing, one or more pump stages, and a cooling system. The rotary induction motor rotates a shaft about a longitudinal axis of rotation. The motor casing houses the rotary induction motor such that the rotary induction motor is held in fluid isolation from the fluid being extracted. The pump stages are attached to the shaft outside of the motor casing, and are configured to impart fluid being extracted from the well with an increased pressure. The cooling system is disposed at least partially within the motor casing, and transfers heat generated by operation of the rotary induction motor out of the motor casing.

    摘要: A magnetic refrigerator has a rotating magnetic wheel which includes a stack of spaced rings of magnetic material. Heat transfer plates of a high temperature heat extractor are interleaved with the magnetic rings and extend to a solid heat transfer conduit which leads to a high temperature terminal. Superconducting magnet coils are mounted to provide a magnetic field through the magnetic wheel at the position of the high temperature heat transfer plates. Low temperature extractor heat transfer plates are positioned outside of the magnetic field and interleave with the rings of the magnetic wheel to transfer heat thereto which is conducted from a low temperature terminal through a solid conduit. As the magnetic wheel is rotated, heat is drawn from a load and conducted through the solid material of the low temperature heat extractor to the magnetic wheel, is released when the material of the wheel is subjected to the magnetic field and transferred to the high temperature heat transfer plates, and is then conducted through the solid material of the heat transfer conduit to the high temperature terminal. Helium gas is sealed in the space surrounding the rotating magnetic wheel to transfer heat between the rings of the wheel and the heat transfer plates. Substantially all heat transfer in the magnetic refrigerator is thus provided by conduction through a solid, allowing start-up of the refrigerator without an initial charge of liquid helium to cool the refrigerator to cryogenic operating temperatures.
