161 Fuel substance and associated cartridge for fuel cell US10688433 2003-10-17 US20050084720A1 2005-04-21 Juan Becerra; Frank Kovacs; Xiaoming Ren
The present invention provides a gel fuel, which includes a fuel substance held in a polymeric structure. One embodiment of the composition includes neat methanol, to which a thickening substance, such as that sold commercially under the trade name Carbopol®, is added to impart viscosity, as well as stabilizing and suspending properties. In addition to the thickening substance, a further substance can be added to balance the pH of the gel fuel when needed. In accordance with the invention, a fuel cell cartridge is provided that has at least one aspect that is methanol-permeable, and which may include a fuel vapor permeable layer and it may be comprised of one of a number of various alternative materials. Features within the fuel cartridge can be used to increase surface area of the gel fuel, and to maintain the gel fuel in a desired location within the cartridge.
162 Long chain hindered amines and compositions stabilized therewith US10740196 2003-12-18 US06875870B2 2005-04-05 Mervin G. Wood; Andrea R. Smith; James P. Galbo
Hindered amine compounds which are substituted by a long hydrocarbon chain are useful in a number of applications where the solubility or compatibility afforded by said substitution is needed. This is seen particularly for example with white, dyed, dipped, unscented and/or scented candle wax which is effectively stabilized against discoloration and fading by the incorporation therein of a long chain hindered amine alone or in combination with a UV absorber and/or an antioxidant.

164 Fuel pellet and method of making the fuel pellet US510303 1995-08-02 US5643342A 1997-07-01 Michael R. Andrews
A fuel pellet and a method of manufacturing a fuel pellet capable of burning in either a stoker or pulver furnace, comprising from about 0 to about 80% by weight of cellulosic material, from about 20% to about 50% by weight of densified thermoplastic material, and from about 0 to about 50% by weight of coal. The cellulosic material, densified thermoplastic material and coal are ground from about 80 Mesh to about 200 Mesh, and then blended into a mixture wherein the contents are evenly distributed throughout. Following the blending process, the mixture is forced through a pelletizer. As the pellets are removed from the pelletizer they are immediately cooled so that the densified thermoplastic particles do not melt. The resulting fuel pellets produce from about 10,000 BTU per pound to about 16,000 BTU per pound and leave an ash deposit from about 0 to about 6% by weight, and a sulfur dioxide output from about 0 to about 3% by weight.
165 High energy fuel gel slurries US578004 1995-12-22 US5597947A 1997-01-28 William D. Stephens
This invention involves a process for improving the energy and ignitability of a metal slurry gel rocket fuel by the use of an energetic metal compound of higher energy than the parent metal. An energetic metal compound is added slowly to a liquid rocket fuel with appropriate stirring to form a suspension of the metallic compound in the liquid fuel. To this is added a small quantity of a gelling agent, such as silicon dioxide, with stirring, to form an energetic metal fuel gel. The energetic metal compound is prepared by using a high purity metal in the form of a wire. As an example, a sample of aluminum wire weighing 2.26 grams is supplied with an external source of high voltage and amperes, while the wire is in an environment of an inert gas (e.g., argon) under about 40 atmospheres pressure, to achieve electrical explosion of the wire. The product produced is a fine, gray, non-conductive powder in high yield. This powder contains aluminum and argon. This powder can be used to replace the aluminum of a prior art thixotropic fuel gel to obtain a thixotropic fuel gel with an improved performance with higher energy.

167 Method of making pelletized fuel US20447 1993-02-22 US5342418A 1994-08-30 Albert H. Jesse
A pelletized fuel is disclosed, made with cellulosic fiber and thermoplastic resin. Preferred embodiments of the pelletized fuel are adapted to be fed in admixture with coal, into conventional coal fired furnaces using conventional coal handling equipment. The preferred pelletized fuel has appropriate mass density and bulk density, and is shaped such that it maintains a generally uniform admixture with the coal during conventional handling, and, upon combustion, produces heat similar to that of coal, thereby minimizing the process adaptations required to convert a furnace from using a conventional coal fuel supply, to a fuel supply comprising a mixture of coal and the pelletized fuel. The invention comprehends methods of making the pelletized fuel, and methods of firing a furnace using the pelletized fuel.

176 Gelled floating roof for storage tanks and pits and process for forming same US3639258D 1968-07-30 US3639258A 1972-02-01 CORINO EDWARD R; CANEVARI GERARD P
A novel and inexpensive floating roof for tank and pit storage of crude oil and other petroleum products is formed in place by gelling a thin surface layer of oil using gelling agents in low concentration. The gelling agent employed is the reaction product of a diisocyanate and either an amine or an alcohol, which reaction product is a urea-type molecule which ultimately forms the gel with the oil. The layer of gelled oil floats on the surface of the material being stored and follows changes in its level. In sloping-wall pits the gelled layer readily adjusts to the changing wall contours while at the same time substantially reducing volatile and wind entrainment losses, fire hazards and water entrapment.

The process includes an apparatus for preparing solid methane gas, a method for using the apparatus, a method for preparing mixtures for use with the apparatus and resulting compositions. Solid methane gas is obtained by using a sophisticated apparatus and solid methane gas complexes having many different ingredients and ingenious methods. Methane gas flows through the sophisticated apparatus to be cooled and ultimately mixed with the solid methane bed complex at subzero Celsius conditions to create solid methane that is stable at room temperature. This solid methane is capable of being turned back into methane gas.
