output signals f and g are directed to the two inputs of the downstream up down counter 8 in such a way that the counter status is incremented by 1 when signal a in the trigger 6 exceeds the positive threshold value and decremented by 1 when signal a in the trigger 6 falls below the negative threshold value the seven highest valued bits of the 9 bit up down counter 8 are directed to the counting selector 9 and evaluated at a specific time which is determined via lead b of the up counter 10 the up down counter 8 is stopped during the period of evaluation the result of the evaluation pal and secam or ntsc 4 4 and ntsc 3 5 is present at outputs c and d a further control signal from the counting selector 9 is directed to the h 2 switch 11 by means of connection e this serves for the phase adjustment which is carried out when the counting selector 9 has registered a certain number of negative counting pulses within a vertical period this signifies that although a signal capable of evaluation is indeed present at circuit point a the phase angle of the h 2 switch 11 in the receiver does not coincide with the phase angle of the h 2 switch of the transmitter the essential function of the counting selector 9 is to decide whether a chromaticity signal f capable of evaluation is present at the input to the identification circuit and to which transmission standard if applicable it relates.

objects to be decontaminated further oxidizing agent need not be decomposed during the period of decontamination so metal ion generated by decomposition of oxidizing agent need not be absorbed and removed by the cation resin with the result that cation resin adsorption is decreased for example 200 ppm of potassium permanganate is used as an oxidizing decontamination agent and 10 potassium permanganate is replenished in each cycle upon decomposition of four objects the oxidizing agent is decomposed and the manganese ion and potassium ion resulting from decomposition are absorbed and removed by cation resin if the surface area of one object to be decontaminated is 40 m 2 and the amount of oxidizing decontamination agent is 3 m 3 then the amount of adsorption of potassium ion and manganese ion generated by decomposition of oxidizing agent in the cation resin can be reduced to about 11 of the total adsorption amount of cation resin this is a substantial reduction in the adsorption of resin as compared to the percentage of the prior art it should be noted that the effect in reducing the amount of chemicals is increased with the number of objects to be decontaminated in the present embodiment the radioactive concentration of the reducing decontamination tank 2 a is controlled at a higher value and that of reducing.

analysis operation 1004 is performed whenever information identifying the relationship of the second rwe from the point of view of the first rwe is necessary in this embodiment such a relationship may be necessary when determining the first rwe 39 s entire list of relationships for example when a w4 analysis in correlation has to be performed from the first rwe 39 s point of view another retrieval and analysis operation 1006 is also shown in which the information identifying a relationship of the first rwe from the point of view of the second rwe is necessary again such analysis may be performed when an analysis of the second rwe 39 s relationship with all of the other rwes known to the system is necessary this illustrates that this point of view relationship is managed and stored independently from the prior point of view relationship i e that of the second rwe from the point of view of the first likewise a third retrieval and analysis operation 1008 is provided wherein from a third information object may be retrieved as necessary that identifies the relationship of the first rwe from the point of view of the first rwe thus in situations where it is necessary to determine what the first rwe 39 s self declared relationship is or self declared description will be retrieved in this operation 1008.

wise ester group distribution is the same as the alkali consumption of a corresponding pectin having a random ester group distribution however the ph drop of the two pectins is considerably larger for the block wise esterified pectin presumably because such pectin will act as a pectin with a higher average de thus by treating a block wise esterified pectin with a polygalacturarase which splits the pectin at non esterified sites a lower molecular weight pectin may be obtained having an increased de in an alternative embodiment of the composition according to the invention the ester groups of the polysaccharide thereof are thus distributed in a block wise fashion in another embodiment of the composition according to the invention the ester groups of the polysaccharide are distributed in a random fashion in another preferred embodiment according to the invention the skin protecting alkalinity controlling composition comprises a mixture of at least one high de carboxylic acid polysaccharide having a degree of esterification de in the range from about 70 to about 100 more preferably from about 80 to about 100 and at least one low de carboxylic acid polysaccharide having a degree of esterification de in the range from about 5 to about 70 more preferably from about 5 to about 40 most preferably from 10 to about.

the x axis controller of the robot transporting the pod the x axis controller responds goto done 604 to the clc controller when the movement is complete next the clc controller issues a goto upper travel zone 606 command to the z axis controller of the robot transporting the pod the z axis controller responds goto_done 608 to the clc controller when the movement is complete the clc next issues a goto buffer command 610 to the x axis controller and when the movement is complete the x axis controller responds goto_done 612 next the clc issues a goto disengage position command 614 and the robot positions itself just above the pod when the movement is complete the z axis controller will respond goto_done 616 the clc then issues a goto engage position command 618 and the robot positions itself at a level to engage the pod if a pod is present at the static buffer the z axis controller then issues a pod detected signal 620 followed by a goto_done signal 622 upon receipt of the pod detected signal 620 and goto_done signal 622 the clc will issue an engage_gripper command 624 when the clc receives the gripper_engaged signal 626 the clc will issue a goto upper travel position command.
