A method and apparatus to prepare and deliver a gas mixture of constant composition of liquid chemical compounds soluble in liquid carbon dioxide to be used as an enhanced attractant for biting insects. The mixtures can be prepared in high pressure vessels where carbon dioxide remains liquified under its own vapor pressure or in low pressure vessels where carbon dioxide is kept liquid, at low pressure, by cooling it with a refrigeration unit. Direct vaporization of the liquid mixture from the vessels results in a gas mixture of constant composition. This mixture is to be delivered in a continuous or pulsed flow to an insect trap. These baited insect traps are an ecological alternative to chemical insecticide methods of insect control currently in use.

A method and apparatus for sampling a cryogenic liquid for determination of its molar composition involves isolating a sample of the liquid under conditions to avoid fractionation of the sample, especially isothermal conditions, removing the conditions, allowing the liquid to vaporize intact and collecting the vaporized liquid in gas form; in particular the vaporized liquid is collected in a collection vessel which may be detached from the balance of the system and transported to a site of analysis.

Method and apparatus for sampling a cryogenic liquid for analysis

An inert gas such as helium is employed as a tracer gas in a pulp and paper mill to determine the utilization of oxygen by an aqueous cellulosic pulp particularly, as well as other parameters, in an oxygen delignification or extraction in which oxygen is dissolved in the pulp and reacted to solubilize lignins and reduce the requirement for chlorine-based bleaching chemicals.

Oil is recovered from an underground formation by the use of steam and a gas rich in oxygen. In a priming stage, high quality saturated steam or superheated steam is injected into the formation to raise the reservoir temperature, in the vicinity of injection, to the combustion temperature of the oil. Then, in a combustion stage, the injection of steam is continued and oxygen-containing gas is injected as well, so that local combustion of oil occurs. This results in further heating of the steam and the generation of hot combustion gases, increasing the mobility of the oil and creating pressure drive. The priming and combustion stages may be part of a cyclic steam stimulation ('huff and puff') method or a steam flooding method. Special expedients are provided for the safe use of oxygen and steam.

Process and device for oil recovery using steam and oxygen-containing gas

In a steam generating boiler having a bottom wall supporting a char bed and sidewalls with ports through which air is admitted for combustion of combustible species in the char bed and emanating therefrom, combustion is improved by introducing an oxygen-containing gas into a lower central zone of the boiler, from at least one point remote from the sidewalls to thereby cause intimate mixing of the oxygen contained in the gas with the combustible species.
