Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An electrochemical converter is disposed within a pressure vessel that collects hot exhaust gases generated by the converter for delivery to a cogeneration bottoming device, such as a gas turbine. The bottoming device extracts energy from the waste heat generated by the converter such as a fuel , cell for the generation of electricity yielding an improved efficiency energy system. Bottoming devices can include, for example a gas turbine system or a , heating, ventilation or cooling (HVAC) system. The pressure vessel can include a heat exchanger, such as a cooling jacket for cooling the pressure vessel , and/or preheating an input reactant to the electrochemical converter prior to …

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 23, 1997 and granted October 22, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 23, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 23, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
