Thermal energy storage system using compressed air energy and/or chilled water from desalination processes
InactiveUS20070234749A1Reducing end-user cost of energyEnergy efficiencyWater treatment parameter controlGeneral water supply conservationThermal energyThermal energy storage system
The invention relates to a universal system for producing cost effective energy particularly for cooling purposes. In one embodiment, wind turbines are used to generate electricity and compressed air energy, wherein the compressed air energy is used to co-generate electricity and chilled air. The chilled air is then used to chill water in either a mixing chamber, or a desalination system, wherein the chilled water is stored in a separation tank, wherein it can later be used to provide cooling for an air conditioning system for a facility. When desalination is used, the system produces chilled fresh drinking water which can be used for air conditioning, and then used as fresh drinking water. Any exhaust chilled air can be used directly for air conditioning.

A space-division multiplexing optical coherence tomography apparatus and system is provided. In one embodiment, the system includes a light source, a reference arm, and a sample arm. The sample arm splits the sampling light into a plurality of sampling beams which may be scanned simultaneously onto a surface of a sample. An optical delay may be introduced into the sampling beams before scanning. A plurality of reflected light signals returned from the sample is collected. In one arrangement, the signals may be combined to produce a single reflected light signal. The reflected light signal(s) and a reference signal are combined to produce an interference signal comprising data representative of digitized images captured of the actual object. In one embodiment, a single sample arm may be used for scanning and collecting image data. A related method is also provided.

InactiveUS20020076655A1Efficient rateHigh sensitivityPhotography auxillary processesRadiation applicationsLight guideRefractive index
The invention relates to methods of writing a light-guiding structure in a bulk glass substrate. The bulk glass substrate is preferably made from a soft silica-based material having an annealing point less than about 1380°K. A pulsed laser beam is focused within the substrate while the focus is translated relative to the substrate along a scan path at a scan speed effective to induce an increase in the refractive index of the material along the scan path. Substantially no laser-induced physical damage of the material is incurred along the scan path. Various optical devices can be made using this method.

The invention relates to the field of producing electric power by artificially creating an air stream incident on a power-generating module (turbine) using solar-powered batteries. The power-generating module turns, compresses the air stream and directs the latter onto the working surface of a blade-less rotor. The rotor is designed such that a reactive effect is created on the working surfaces thereof, which improves the turbine characteristics. In the proposed method for producing power, use is made of the kinetic and potential energy of the air stream, and also the moment of inertia of the installation and solar-powered batteries. The efficiency of the method reaches 50%, while traditional fuel is economized on and emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere are reduced.

A process for the production of ethanol utilizes a vacuum process and selectively permeable membranes to increase ethanol production efficiency. Yeast converts sugars to ethanol in an anaerobic condition within process chamber void of oxygen and filled with a Nitrogen gas (N2) or any non-oxygen containing gas. A glucose solution is fed into the process chamber to a yeast solution to ferment. A selectively permeable membrane filters ethanol away from the yeast and out of the process chamber. The removal of ethanol from the process chamber keeps the yeast alive to constantly produce ethanol.
