摘要:
A method of separating scandium from a feedstock wherein a scandium enriched solution is produced from the feedstock and the scandium enriched solution is extracted to produce an organic phase of the scandium enriched solution. The organic phase of the scandium enriched solution is re-extracted to produce an aqueous phase including scandium chloride. The aqueous phase is precipitated and calcinated to produce scandium oxide powder.
摘要:
A method of forming a metalized polymeric bubble in a space, microgravity environment is described. A liquid polymer bubble having a predetermined diameter is formed from a mixture comprising a liquid polymer and at least one of a UV curing material, a stabilizer, a UV absorber, or a surfactant. The liquid polymer bubble is cured with radiation to form a rigid polymer bubble. The rigid polymer bubble is then metalized with a metal to form the metalized polymeric bubble.
摘要:
An electrolytic filtration method and apparatus for the concentration and collection of suspended particulates from aqueous solutions is disclosed. The electrolytic cell contains at least an anode and a cathode, and in one embodiment contains a plurality of anodes and cathodes. The electrolytic cell also contains a filter, and in one embodiment the filter is a moving belt filter. While not bound by theory, the electrolytic filtration method and apparatus is based on the electrophoretic movement of algae particles suspended in an aqueous solution away from the filter under the influence of an electric field. In one embodiment the electric field is a pulsed waveform with unidirectional voltage or current pulses. In another embodiment, the electric field is a pulsed waveform with bidirectional voltage or current pulses.
摘要:
Methods for forming spherical crystal habit are shown. A needle-shaped crystal habit, a solvent, and a surfactant are combined and dissolved forming a first solution. The first solution and an anti-solvent are combined forming a second solution. The second solution is cooled. Spherical crystal habit is formed.
摘要:
A product critical temperature during freeze drying is determined. The product is imaged using optical coherence tomography (“OCT”). The product is freeze dried while the temperature of the product is measured. The product critical temperature is the temperature at which a product structure event occurs during freeze drying.
摘要:
An ionic transport material is disposed relative to a substrate and configured to establish an ionic connection between the substrate and a replaceable sacrificial anode. The replaceable sacrificial anode is electrically connected to the substrate and is provided to inhibit corrosion of the substrate.
摘要:
A catalyst free method of igniting an ionic liquid is provided. The method can include mixing a liquid hypergol with a HAN-based ionic liquid to ignite the HAN-based ionic liquid in the absence of a catalyst. The HAN-based ionic liquid and the liquid hypergol can be injected into a combustion chamber. The HAN-based ionic liquid and the liquid hypergol can impinge upon a stagnation plate positioned at top portion of the combustion chamber.
摘要:
Described is an apparatus and method for reducing noise in an information bearing signal is provided. A feeding element receives dual-polarized wideband electromagnetic signals. The feeding element is coupled to a Non-Cutoff Frequency Selective Surface ground plane. The Non-Cutoff Frequency Selective Surface ground plane allows for a line-of-sight signal and a surface wave to cancel. The Non-Cutoff Frequency Selective Surface ground plane can be a metal plate with a plurality of corrugations. The corrugations can be concentric rings, each corrugation having a predetermined height and a predetermined spacing from adjacent corrugations.
摘要:
A system provides an optical image of an object. A first module tracks a reference feature of the object. A second module includes a source for an imaging beam, a scanning device to move the imaging beam along a portion of the object and a detection device receives a signal associated with an image of the portion of the object. The first module controls the position of the imaging beam relative to the reference feature to correct for the motion of the object. A third module detects a distortion of the object and compensates for the distortion.
