US Patent:

20030029232, Feb 13, 2003
Filed:

Aug 8, 2001
Appl. No.:

09/924652
Inventors:

Larry Felix - Pelham AL, US
Heng Ban - Birmingham AL, US
Ralph Dinwiddie - Knoxville TN, US
Rafael Nunez - Alabaster AL, US
Larry Monroe - Blountsville AL, US
Arun Mehta - Los Altos CA, US
Ian Wright - Oak Ridge TN, US
International Classification:

G01N017/00
US Classification:

073/086000
Abstract:

A coupon for measuring the corrosion rates of metals in a hostile environment, including two or more thin-film resistive conductors formed on a substrate and positioned in close physical proximity so that they are subjected to essentially the same physical environment. One or more of the thin-film resistive conductors is directly exposed to the potentially corrosive environment while at least one of the thin-film elements is protected from the corrosive nature of the environment. The element or elements that are protected from corrosion are either shielded from the corrosive effects of the environment by the presence of a thermally thin protective layer or by being isolated from the corrosive environment while being maintained at essentially the same temperature as the elements exposed to the corrosive environment. The invention is also directed to a system for measuring the corrosion rate by measuring the change in resistance of the exposed conductor in comparison to the protected chamber.

US Patent:

20090320678, Dec 31, 2009
Filed:

Mar 25, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/411255
Inventors:

Ramsay Chang - Mountain View CA, US
Charles E. Dene - Redwood City CA, US
Larry Scot Monroe - Blountsville AL, US
Mark Simpson Berry - West Birmingham AL, US
M. Brandon Looney - Trussville AL, US
Assignee:

Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:

B01D 50/00
B01D 53/02
B01D 53/46
B01D 47/00
US Classification:

95 92, 95 90, 95134, 95133, 95148, 95131, 95132
Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses are described for removing a contaminant, such as a vaporous trace metal contaminant like mercury, from a gas stream. In one embodiment, a primary particulate collection device that removes particulate matter is used. In this embodiment, a sorbent filter is placed within the housing of the primary particulate collection device, such as an electrostatic precipitator or a baghouse, to adsorb the contaminant of interest. In another embodiment, a sorbent filter is placed within or after a scrubber, such as a wet scrubber, to adsorb the contaminant of interest. In some embodiments, the invention provides methods and apparatuses that can advantageously be retrofit into existing particulate collection equipment. In some embodiments, the invention provides methods and apparatuses that in addition to removal of a contaminant additionally remove particulate matter from a gas stream.
