摘要:
An information signal recording medium has a spiral track on which an information signal is recorded. The information signal includes picture element data which correspond to one field, and is time-sequentially recorded on the spiral track in terms of the picture element data which correspond to one field. The picture element data which correspond to one field are made up of a plurality of picture element data of a first field and a plurality of picture element data of a second field, among picture element data which are obtained by subjecting an analog video signal to a digital pulse modulation, where the analog video signal corresponds to one frame made up of the first and second fields. A reproducing apparatus is designed to reproduce the second field in a sequence different from a sequence with which the recorded picture element data are reproduced from the information recording medium in the first field.

A process for removing carbon dioxide from a fluid comprises the steps of: (a) treating the fluid by bringing it into countercurrent contact with a liquid absorbent in a first absorption zone and thereafter in a second absorption zone to absorb at least part of the carbon dioxide contained in the fluid into the absorbent; (b) depressurizing the loaded absorbent to release a first stream of carbon dioxide and yield a partially regenerated absorbent; (c) recycling a first stream of the partially regenerated absorbent into the first absorption zone; (d) heating a second stream of the partially regenerated absorbent to release a second stream of carbon dioxide and yield a regenerated absorbent; (e) recycling the regenerated absorbent into the second absorption zone; (f) condensing water vapour entrained in the second stream of carbon dioxide by cooling the second stream of carbon dioxide and transferring at least part of the heat recovered to the partially regenerated absorbent by indirect heat exchange. The invention provides a two-stage carbon dioxide recovery process wherein the overall energy required for carbon dioxide recovery is reduced and/or wherein at least part of the carbon dioxide is recovered at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure so as to reduce the energy required for compression of the carbon dioxide, e.g., for sequestration. Also disclosed is a plant for removing carbon dioxide from a fluid.
