International Classification:

A63F 306

US Classification:

Abstract:

A perpetual seal card game in which players purchase individual play cards and reveal indicia covered by removable covers. Indicia on the individual play cards indicate whether the player is an instant winner, continues playing as a challenging player or has lost the game. If the player is an instant winner, he receives a prize and is finished playing the game. If the player is a challenging player, he has an opportunity to challenge the prior games winner. The challenging players identify themselves on a seal card containing a challenging player identification area and predetermined challenger indicia concealed by a removable cover. Once all of the challenging players have identified themselves, the predetermined challenger indicia is disclosed identifying the player who will challenge the prior games winner. A second seal card, containing concealed indicia identifying the winner of the game, is used to determine the winner of the game. The cover concealing one of the indicia from the second seal card is removed to disclose the winner of the game.

Abstract:

A reactive coating composition and method for treating a surface including heavy metals by applying the reactive coating composition to the surface. The surface can be, for example, a paint layer containing heavy metals. The reactive coating composition includes a stabilizing agent to stabilize the heavy metal and a permeability enhancing agent to increase the permeability of the paint layer, facilitating the reaction of the heavy metal with the stabilizing agent. The structure including the treated paint layer can be left in place or can be disposed in a non-hazardous landfill.

Appl. No.:

11/103740

Inventors:

Mark Peters - San Marcos CA, US
Lisa Peters - San Marcos CA, US

International Classification:

G09F 13/00

US Classification:

040547000

Abstract:

A display for displaying an image to a viewer, capable of highlighting specific locations selected by a user. This display comprises: a) a punchable layer such as a foam board having a first surface and a second surface, b) an image affixed to the first surface of the punchable layer. The punchable layer and the image form a sandwich dubbed display cover which is partially transparent and is observed by a viewer located on the image side of the display cover, c) a light source illuminating the second surface of the punchable layer, d) a piercing means for enabling the user to punch at least one hole into the punchable layer, and e) a plurality of pegs equal in number to the number of holes. The pegs are longer than the thickness of the display cover and furthermore are significantly more translucent than the display cover, such that when inserted into the holes by the user, they operate as light pipes and channel light generated by the light source, across the display cover, and scatter light toward the viewer, thereby allowing the pegs to operate as highlighters over the lesser illuminated display cover.

International Classification:

C01G 5308

US Classification:

423 24

Abstract:

Aqueous nickel chloride solutions containing such impurities as copper, iron, and zinc, and optionally, cobalt, and having an acid concentration ranging from about 0. 2 N to 4 N HCl together with a total chloride concentration of about 4 N to 11 N are purified of said impurities by solvent extraction with an organic extractant of essentially tributyl phosphate (TBP) dissolved in a water-immiscible organic solvent, the solvent extraction being carried out at a selected concentration of TBP and a selected volume ratio of organic to the aqueous solution effective to produce a nickel raffinate substantially impoverished in said impurities.

International Classification:

C01G 500

US Classification:

75104

Abstract:

A process for recovering silver present in cuprous chloride solutions as a soluble silver chloride which comprises saturating the cuprous chloride solution with sodium chloride, subjecting the saturated solution to evaporation to co-crystallize the sodium chloride and silver chloride, separating the solid chlorides from the liquid, recovering silver from the sodium chloride-silver chloride crystals and reclaiming the sodium chloride, adding water to the liquid and cooling it to crystallize cuprous chloride. The procedure is adaptable to processes for recovering copper from its ores in which copper is reduced to cuprous chloride in a leach slurry followed by cooling the leach slurry to crystallize out the cuprous chloride from which copper is recovered by conventional techniques.

Hazen Research, Inc. - Denver CO

International Classification:

C22B 1924

US Classification:

75103

Abstract:

A method for recovering a substantially impurity-free zinc oxide product from steel-making flue dust or a similar material which comprises leaching the flue dust with concentrated ammonia and carbon dioxide to dissolve zinc and unwanted impurities, cementing the leach filtrate with zinc to remove copper, cadmium, and lead impurities, conducting a steam distillation on the cementation filtrate to precipitate basic zinc carbonate, remove the ammonia and carbon dioxide, and iron impurities, and filtering to provide a residue of essentially basic zinc carbonate, sulfur, and chromium. This residue is then washed to remove soluble sulfates, dried, and calcined at high temperatures to break down the basic zinc carbonate into zinc oxide, water washed to remove chromium and the residue of the water wash dried to produce the desired impurity-free zinc oxide product. The two water washes may be combined into one step performed after the calcining step to remove both sulfur and chromium in one wash step.

International Classification:

C22B 1100

US Classification:

75118R

Abstract:

A process for recovering silver from chloride solutions comprising contacting the solution with amalgams of various metals from Groups 2b, 4a, 5a, or 8b of the periodic table or copper to replace the metal with silver and recovering silver from the formed silver amalgam. The process provides an improvement in the process for recovering copper from its ores in which the copper in the ore is solubilized as cuprous copper in a leach liquor and the copper recovered from the leach liquor as cuprous chloride by crystallization, the improvement being the removal of silver from the leach liquor prior to crystallization by use of the amalgam to produce substantially silver-free cuprous chloride crystals.
