Title: Process for fixing lead-contaminated ecologically hazardous industrial waste materials using clinoptilolite zeolite
IPC: C04B28/02
Filed: 1992-09-10
Abstract: There is provided a method for the ecologically safe disposal of lead-contaminated hazardous industrial wastes (such, as for example, those generated as discardable by-products in primary and secondary lead smelting operations, especially, blast furnace slags and matte), which comprises reducing the size of the lead-contaminated industrial wastes and treating them, prior to encapsulation in a hardenable material, with the naturally occuring zeolite, clinoptilolite, in an amount sufficient to prevent lead ions (Pb<+2>) from leaching out of such industrial wastes, through exposure to the action of atmospheric agents (e.g., hot air and rain, or as a result of cyclical freezing and thawing in temperature climates), even over an extended period of time.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/SE88/00626 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 15, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 15, 1990 PCT Filed Nov. 18, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/05765 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 29, 1989.A conveyor belt of elastic material comprises a planar central part, two planar edge parts, and two hinge parts. The central part is flexurally rigid about the longitudinal axis of the belt by virtue of a first and a second transverse reinforcement layer and has a low extensibility in the longitudinal direction by a longitudinal reinforcement. One of the two planar edge parts is hingedly connected with each side edge of the central part. Both edge parts are flexurally rigid about the longitudinal axis of the belt by virtue of the first and a third and a fourth transverse reinforcement layers, and are further extensible in the longitudinal direction of the belt and have a total width which is at least equal to the width of the central part. One of two hinge parts interconnect an edge part with the central part. The hinge parts are flexible about the longitudinal axis of the belt and extensible in the longitudinal direction of the belt. The hinge parts are further resilient for pivoting the edge parts out from a position folded towards the central part, and have a substantially smaller width than the central part. The belt conveyor assembly, in which the conveyor belt is included, comprises support rollers for supporting the belt, and guides for maintaining the desired shape of the belt. The guides comprise pressing elements which, against the spring action of the hinge parts, hold the edge parts in the desired position relative to the central part.

Title: Process for the preparation of thiophene derivatives and also new dihydrothiophene 1-oxides
Inventor: RIPPEL ROBERT
IPC: C07D333/48
Filed: 1989-02-15
Abstract: Thiophene derivatives with an optionally substituted amino group on the thiophene ring are prepared by dehydrogenation of dihydrothiophenes which are substituted in the same manner as the desired thiophene derivatives, using H2O2, the dihydrothiophenes being reacted in a first reaction step with H2O2 in neutral medium to give the corresponding sulphoxides, and, in the second reaction step, these are then rearranged with acid to give the thiophene derivatives. The dihydrothiophene-1-oxides which are formed in this process as intermediates are novel compounds. They, and equally the thiophene derivatives obtained from them by rearrangement with acid, are intermediates mainly in the crop protection agent sector and pharmaceutical sector.

Title: Method for encoding and decoding video information, a motion compensated video encoder and a corresponding decoder
Inventor: LAINEMA JANI
IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 2001-01-19
Abstract: A motion compensated video coding method which can be applied especially in transfer of video streams using low transmission bit rate is presented. In the motion compensated coding method, the motion of picture elements between a piece of reference video information and a piece of current video information is estimated and then modeled using certain basis function and coefficients. The coefficients are quantized, and the quantizer is selected according to a certain selection criterion, for example, based on a target image quality or on a target transmission bit rate. Preferably the selection criterion is such that it automatically adjust the accuracy with which the motion of picture elements is represented to be related to the accuracy with which the prediction error information is represented. A decoding method, an encoder and a corresponding decoder are also described.

Title: Wavelet-based facial motion capture for avatar animation
Inventor: MAURER THOMAS
IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 1999-04-12
Abstract: The present invention is embodied in an apparatus, and related method, for sensing a person's facial movements, features and characteristics and the like to generate and animate an avatar image based on facial sensing. The avatar apparatus uses an image processing technique based on model graphs and bunch graphs that efficiently represent image features as jets. The jets are composed of wavelet transforms processed at node or landmark locations on an image corresponding to readily identifiable features. The nodes are acquired and tracked to animate an avatar image in accordance with the person's facial movements. Also, the facial sensing may use jet similarity to determine the person's facial features and characteristic thus allows tracking of a person's natural characteristics without any unnatural elements that may interfere or inhibit the person's natural characteristics.

Patent AU-3860189-A (AU)
Title: Method and reagents for detecting nucleic acid sequences
Inventor: RICHARDS RODNEY M
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1989-06-16
Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for detecting a target nucleic acid sequence. The method may employ both an amplification procedure and a detection procedure. Amplification is accomplished through the use of a plurality of pairs of nucleic acid amplification probes, wherein the member probes of each pair of amplification probes are complementary to each other with at least one hybridizing member of each pair of amplification probes also being complementary to a given portion of the target nucleic acid sequence, which acts as a template. The hybridizing members of each pair of amplification probes hybridize to the target sequence in a contiguous manner, sufficiently adjacent to each other to enable the probes to be joined together to form an amplification product. Once the hybridizing amplification probes are joined, the completed amplification product can be separated by denaturation, and the process repeated, until a sufficient quantity of the target nucleic acid sequence is produced to result in measurable signal in the selected assay. The correctly assembled amplification product serves as a template in a manner similar to that served by the target nucleic acid sequence in the amplification procedure.
