摘要:
In a fuel cell power generation system for use with a fuel gas which is prepared by desulfurizing a raw fuel material such as naphtha, LPG, town gas, or the like and then, processing it by steam reforming reaction and thus, consists mainly of hydrogen or a process of producing the fuel gas, the desulfurization of the raw fuel material is implemented using a copper/zinc desulfurizing agent. As a result of the desulfurization, the raw fuel material is desulfurized at a higher level and the deterioration of a steam reforming catalyst employed is prevented. Accordingly, steady long-run operation of the fuel cell will be ensured. Also, upon the steam reforming reaction, the S/C (the mole number of steam per one mole of carbon in a raw fuel material) is reduced and thus, the concentration of hydrogen in the fuel gas will be increased providing an improvement in the efficiency of power generation.

A process for steam reforming of hydrocarbons which comprises subjecting a hydrocarbon to steam reforming after desulfurizing the hydrocarbon to a sulfur content of 5 ppb or less. According to the process, a poisoning of steam reforming catalyst by sulfur can be prevented, and stable and economical operation can be attained for a long period.

A fluid distributor includes a first feed port for feeding fuel gas into a main fuel flow path, a feed path for feeding the fuel gas inside a gas flow path to the first feed port, and distributedly into a pilot fuel flow path so as to increase the distribution ratio of the fuel gas to the first feed port according to an increase in an overall feed flow rate of the fuel gas from the gas flow path to a feed path and, inversely, to decrease the distribution ratio of the fuel gas to the first feed port according to a decrease in the overall feed flow rate. A plurality of fluid distributors are disposed in the main fuel flow path and pilot fuel flow path distributedly in the peripheral direction to constitute a gas feed means.

Disclosed is a burner apparatus comprising an inner tube defining a second channel and an outer tube defining a first channel surrounding the inner tube, air supplying means for supplying air to the first channel and the second channel, and gas supplying means for supplying fuel gas to the first channel and the second channel, either the first channel or the second channel being used as a main combustion channel and the other being used as a pilot combustion channel, the main combustion channel and the pilot combustion channel receiving the supply of fuel gas for combusting it. A plurality of first supply openings for supplying the fuel gas into the main combustion channel are distributed in the main combustion channel in a direction away from the pilot combustion channel. Discharging resistance of the fuel gas from each first supply opening due to passage of the oxygen-containing gas is set so as to increase as being distant from the pilot combustion channel.
摘要:
In the method for measuring the velocity of fluid or visualizing the distribution of fluid by feeding tracer particles to the fluid, irradiating the fluid with light and observing return light from the tracer particles, tracer particles containing a flourescent substance are fed at least partially to the fluid and the fluid is irradiated with exciting light to cause the tracer particles to output flourescent emissions. A filter which does not transmit the exciting light is used to substantially selectively observe the flourecent emissions of the tracer particles. This method results in a remarkable improvement in the accuracy of flow velocity measurement or visualization of fluid distribution. Moreover, in a mixed fluid system consisting of two or more different fluids, the pattern of behavior of each fluid and the intermingled state of the fluids can be observed by using a plurality of different tracer particles.

Provided is an absorption column for body fluid purification by which the saturated adsorption amount of a substance to be adsorbed can be increased or the time required for reaching the saturated adsorption can be shortened, and therefore, the column capacity can be considerably reduced and the treatment time can be considerably shortened. The adsorption column having functional groups 6 specifically binding to a substance to be adsorbed including at least low density lipoprotein, immobilized on the surface of a porous support 5. The porous support 5 has double-pore structure comprising: a skeleton 7 made of a silica gel or silica glass having a three-dimensional network structure; through-pores 8 of an average diameter measured by the mercury intrusion method of 1 μm or more but less than 4 μm and having a three-dimensional network structure, which are formed in the voids of the skeleton; and micropores 9 having an average diameter measured by the mercury intrusion method larger than the grain diameter of the substance to be adsorbed, which are dispersedly formed on the surface of the skeleton.
