Patent EP-1476275-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ACKERMANNS LEO J P
IPC: B01D33/073
Filed: 2003-05-19
Abstract: A device is disclosed for receiving and separating chips and coolant collecting on machine tools in which unfiltered coolant is prevented from penetrating tanks for filtered coolant in the event a receiving tank overflows. This is achieved in that holders, whose projecting ends, which are directed downward, extend into an overflow channel, are tightly attached externally to the wall of the receiving tank. The overflow channel is guided around the device at a level below the top edge of the receiving tank and is removably held on the holders. The overflow channel tightly covers tanks located beneath it having filtered coolant. The inner edge of the overflow channel neighboring the receiving tank lies at a higher level than the outer edge of the overflow channel, which is further away from the receiving tank, and at least one outlet device is provided in the bottom region of the overflow channel.

deteriorate the turbidity elimination performance even in
start-up early stages. As the means to accomplish such an
object, the present invention provides a method of adding
an inorganic flocculant and, optionally, an organic polymer
flocculant to the water to be treated and agitating the
resulting mixture to effect aggregation precipitation
treatment which comprises introducing the agitated solution
into a first chamber of a separation tank where flocs are
allowed to grow to effect solid-liquid separation and,
simultaneously, the separated water is discharged out of
the separation tank.

Inventor: MARIN OVIDIU
IPC: F23L7/00
Filed: 2003-02-14
Abstract: A steam-generating combustion system includes an oxygen enriched gas provided as at least part of an oxidant stream. A combustion chamber receives and combusts a fuel in the oxidant stream and generate steam. The combustion chamber generates flue gas having a flue gas volume which is smaller than a volume of flue gas generated by the combustion chamber when operated with air as the oxidant stream. A flue gas pollutant control system receives the flue gas from the combustion chamber and reduces at least one of particulate matter, SO<SUB>x</SUB>, NO<SUB>x</SUB>, and mercury. The reduction in flue gas volume allows the implementation of much smaller pollutant control equipment, since the size of the pollutant control units is mainly based on the volume or mass flow rate of flue gas to be treated. Moreover, the system including oxygen-enriched gas in the oxidant will lead to concentrated levels of the pollutants in the flue gas. The high concentrations of pollutants will enhance their absorption in the different pollutant control systems, improving removal efficiency for all species.

Abstract: Access control in a collaboration system is realized,
in which, even when only particular one of users working
together has access permission to a resource, the other
users are allowed to access the resource under certain
conditions. 
     The collaboration system includes multiple terminals
100 exchanging data through a network to perform
collaborative work, and a collaboration server 200 that
acquires a resource in response to a request from each
terminal 100 and sends the resource to the terminal 100.
When an access request for an access-controlled resource is
made from a user terminal 100 not having the access
permission to the resource, the collaboration server 200
uses access authorization of a session owner to the
resource to acquire the resource.
