Abstract:
The present invention relates to a sound source for the stimulation of an oil reservoir or an oil well for enhanced oil recovery or for seismic logging of the reservoir. The sound source is operated by a pressurized gas from a compressor or a pressure tank on the surface, and the gas is transported to an in the sound source situated cylinder with an accumulator, via a feed line.
Abstract:
The present invention teaches a method, system and units for measuring changes in blood during a longer period of time in vivo with a patient by measuring diffusivity of solvent. A differential pressure sensor is arranged on a silicon wafer or beam comprising resistors being in communication with fluids in two chambers via semipermable membranes enabling measuring of two components in said blood by tracking changes over time.
Abstract:
A process for thermal and, optionally, catalytic upgrading and hydrogenation of hydrocarbons is described, wherein the hydrocarbons (oil) with a lower API grade is passed through one or more reactors connected in parallell or in series, preferably in series, in liquid state where it under pressure and intense agitation at a given temperature is thermally upgraded by increasing API, and that the product is discharged in liquid state, and whereby the agitation is effected by whipping elements, optionally made of a catalytic material acting as a catalyst in upgrading the oil in the reactor.
Abstract:
An arrangement in a needle holder unit capable of being mounted on a syringe housing for self-destructing hypodermic and similar syringes wherein the needle holder is equipped with medically acceptable chemical agents for retracting the needle holder into the syringe housing.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring changes in the level of an osmotically active component, such as for instance glucose, or in healthy humans, such as athletes for monitoring the level of lactic acid in the muscles is described. The key feature of the method is that the osmotic movement back and forth over a membrane is used to activate a sensing device, whereby the physical changes that take place in the fluid may be recorded by a receiver situated outside the body. A device for carrying out said method is likewise described.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a tap for mounting on a container containing liquid, such as a wine box, a container containing medicine or a chemical, which tap comprises a sensor arranged on or in the tap for determining the outflow of liquid as a function of dispensing time and outflow characteristics. A display indicates the remaining amount of liquid in the container.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the simultaneous recovery and cracking/upgrading of oil from solids such as tar sand and oil shale. With this process a number of the obstacles with the existing technology are solved, and the process upgrades the oil into a lighter product than the existing technology, remove sulphur in the order of 40% and heavy metals in the order of 90%.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for separating the components of and/or decomposing a liquid material, involving the application of an artificial gravitational field to a liquid material by rotating the liquid material in a rotatable vessel. A non-rotatable mechanical member contacts the liquid material while the liquid material is exposed to the artificial gravitational field. The liquid material is thusly subjected to thermomechanical frictional heating.
Abstract:
An artificial gland for implantation in the human body and comprising a medicament reservoir intended for being filled with a medicament solution by the aid of a syringe said reservoir, via a passage, being connected with a casing the wall of which casing is completely or partly comprised of a semipermeable membrane that causes changes of pressure by osmosis for delivery of a medicament.
