A membrane containerhas a casingincluding a fluid inletand a fluid outletand a membrane container bodyincluding a plurality of flow pathswhich is arranged along the flow direction of the treated fluid and in parallel to one another. Each of the plurality of flow pathsincludes a most upstream portionA which is connected to the fluid inlet, and a most downstream portionC which is connected to the fluid outlet. Return portionsandconfigured to reverse the flow direction of the treated fluid are provided between the most upstream portionA and the most downstream portionC. After passing through the fluid inlet, the treated fluid flows from the most upstream portionA down to the most downstream portionC via the return portionsand the upper return portion

A method and system for recovering COfrom gasification gas, prevents the recovered COfrom being contaminated with COS, without repeating cooling and heating operations and without increasing the steam consumption. Gasification gas being produced in a gasifierand containing CO, CO, COS and HS is subjected to dust removal in a scrubber. Then, a part of the gas is subjected to a CO shift reaction, in which CO is converted into CO, in a CO shift reactor. Another part of the gasification gas is not subjected to the CO shift reaction by means of a bypass, and is mixed with the gas after the CO shift reaction. Thereby, the temperature of the mixture gas is set at 180&#xb0; C. to 300&#xb0; C., and COS in the mixture gas is converted into HS in a COS converter

A method and system for recovering COfrom gasification gas, prevents the recovered COfrom being contaminated with COS, without repeating cooling and heating operations and without increasing the steam consumption. Gasification gas being produced in a gasifierand containing CO, CO, COS and HS is subjected to dust removal in a scrubber. Then, a part of the gas is subjected to a CO shift reaction, in which CO is converted into CO, in a CO shift reactor. In one embodiment, part of the gasification gas is not subjected to the CO shift reaction by means of a bypass, and is mixed with the gas after the CO shift reaction. Thereby, the temperature of the mixture gas is set at 180&#xb0; C. to 300&#xb0; C., and COS in the mixture gas is converted into HS in a COS converterIn another embodiment, the part of the gasification gas not subjected to the CO shift reaction by means of a bypass, is subjected to heat exchangewith the shifted gas stream and converted in a COS converterprior to mixing with the shifted gas.

A gaming machine: determines, for each slot machine, whether a common game start condition is met, based on an accumulated value relative to bet amount information transmitted from each slot machinefor each unit base game; and when the common game start condition is met at any one of the slot machines, executes a common game at each of the slot machines

Gaming machine which determines whether common game start condition is met for each gaming terminal, and gaming method thereof

A method and an apparatus for separating acidic gases from syngas are capable of reducing the necessary power and are capable of obtaining high-purity COat a high recovery ratio.
