Title: Process for removing chlorine from gas stream
Inventor: STITT EDMUND HUGH
IPC: B01D53/77
Filed: 1997-11-19
Granted: 2001-04-05
Abstract: Chlorine is scrubbed from a chlorine-containing gas using an aqueous feed liquor containing an excess of alkali to give an effluent liquor containing chloride and hypochlorite ions. The effluent liquor is recycled as part or all of the aqueous feed liquor. For at least part of the time, at least part of the effluent liquor is passed through a fixed bed of a catalyst for the decomposition of hypochlorite ions whereby hypochlorite ions are decomposed to oxygen gas and chloride ions. The resultant catalyst-treated liquor is mixed with the remainder, if any, of the effluent liquor and recycled, optionally together with added fresh alkali solution, as the aqueous feed liquor. Part of the effluent liquor is optionally discharged as a purge stream before or after passage through catalyst bed. The process may be operated in a continuous mode or in a semi-continuous mode wherein a reservoir holding the liquor to be recycled is periodically discharged, preferably through the catalyst bed, and then recharged with fresh alkali solution. Altternatively two reservoirs may be employed with one supplying the aqueous feed liquor while the other is being discharged and replenished. In the latter case, the reservoir being discharged may have its liquor discharged through the catalyst bed.

The operator input attendance data includes one of a first input indicating that the student having the select displayed name is present, a second input indicating that the student having the select displayed name is absent, and a third input indicating that the student having the select displayed name is tardy. The input attendance data for each select student name is stored in the portable collection device and the foregoing is repeated for each student name in the downloaded set of student names. The input student attendance data is then uploaded from the portable data collection device to the central data collection station and stored in said central data collection station. A student attendance report is generated using the attendance data stored in the central data collection station.

Title: Energy saving power control system
Inventor: BANGERTER FRED F
IPC: H02J3/12
Filed: 1994-03-31
Granted: 1997-06-05
Abstract: Apparatus and methods for AC power regulation primarily intended for inductive loads (e.g., fluorescent lights, motors, etc.) which provide substantial reduction in power consumption while also providing a leading power factor, reduced harmonic distortion, reduced crest factor and reduced noise. The system is self-adjusting for a wide range of loads and can reduce power consumption by 25 percent in lighting loads while producing minimal reduction in light output. The system utilizes a Triac and parallel capacitor bank in series with the load. The Triac is turned on in response to a near-zero differential voltage measured across the Triac and is turned off near the peak of each AC half cycle by shunting current around the Triac. The capacitor absorbs the inductive turn-off voltage spike caused by the collapsing magnetic field in the ballast at the instant of Triac turn-off. This energy, in turn, provides longer on-period for the lamp, thereby permitting more light and increased operating efficiency. The turn-off time is adjusted to regulate power at a reduced level responsive to line voltage, load current and load power-sense signals.
