The fumes flowing in through line 1 are contacted in column C1 with a solvent, at low vapour pressure, absorbing the carbon dioxide. The solvent laden with carbon dioxide is regenerated by distillation in column C2. In order to improve the regeneration operation, a gas is injected through line 11 into column C2 so that this gas carries along the carbon dioxide contained in the solvent. The carbon dioxide-rich gaseous effluent obtained at the top of column C2 can be liquefied by compression and cooling, then stored in surge tank R, which allows its transportation and possibly underground sequestration.

A waste water treatment system and process for treating waste water received in a batch tank. The waste water is discharged in a headwork screen for removing large solids in the water. The solids are into a sludge drying bin. The screened water is transferred into a top of an influent surge tank with an oil/water separator. The oil/water separator includes a plurality of coalescing plates for separating free oil from the waste water. Heavy solids in the surge tank are drained into the sludge drying bin. The waste water is now dropped into a containment pan. From the containment pan, the waste water is pumped into a water treatment tank. The water treatment tank includes two or more electrodes mounted in the top thereof. The electrodes are separated using insulating support spacers for providing proper electrode spacing and insulation between the electrodes. The electrodes are used for providing current to the waste water and separating the contaminates in the water by electrocoagulation. The treated water in the water treatment tank is discharged after a completion of a period of settling or dwell time into a clean water tank.

A fuel tank body has a double-layer structure composed of an inner tank shell and an outer tank shell, so that an inter-tank-shell space is formed therebetween. Because heat of fuel in the fuel tank body is discharged into the inter-tank-shell space, the temperature of fuel in the fuel tank body is prevented from rising. If the pressure in a canister becomes negative due to a negative pressure in an intake system of an engine, more specifically, a negative pressure in a surge tank leading to an air cleaner, high-temperature air in the inter-tank-shell space between the inner tank shell and the outer tank shell flows into the canister. On the other hand, low-temperature air flows from the air cleaner into the inter-tank-shell space which has become negative in pressure.

An integrative method for a packer to pack off a multi-layer hydraulic sand-spraying perforation and pressure fracture is used in the multi-layer perforation and the pressure fracture of a well of well completion of a petroleum casing. A pipe column comprises an oil pipe, a safety joint, a hydraulic ejector, a K34 or a Y34 packer, a uniflow valve, a sieve vessel and an end cap, wherein, the lower layer of a hydraulic ejector position requires perforation depth. With the completion of perforation, the hydraulic sand-spraying fractures the lower layer by actively circulating the lower layer of the hydraulic sand-spraying perforation. When the hydraulic sand-spraying pressure fracture for the lower layer is completed, a reverse circulation surge tank is processed and the pipe column is leveled up and dragged to the upper layer of perforation pressure fracture to continue to fracture the upper layer by hydraulic sand-spraying perforation. After completion, the pipe column is lifted to be put into the well-completion pipe column to discharge liquid and finish production. The perforation is not required by each layer because only an oil pipe needs to be dragged to finish the multiple fracturing of multiple layers of the well. The integrative method integrating the perforation, the fracture and the packing-off together is new stimulation treatment technology. In addition, the fracture is reliable, construction is easy and convenient and period is short.

A method of hydraulic fracturing of an oil producing formation includes the provision of a heating apparatus which is transportable and that has a vessel for containing water. The method contemplates heating the water up to a temperature of about 200° F. (93.3° C.). A water stream of cool or cold water is transmitted from a source to a mixer, the cool water stream being at ambient temperature. The mixer has an inlet that receives cool or cold water from the source and an outlet that enables a discharge of a mix of cool or cold water and the hot water. After mixing in the mixer, the water assumes a temperature that is suitable for mixing with chemicals that are used in the fracturing process, such as a temperature of about 40°-120° F.+ (4.4-48.9° C.+). An outlet discharges a mix of the cool and hot water to surge tanks or to mixing tanks.
