Patent CA-2601228-C (CA)
Inventor: DAUGHERTY JAMES SCOTT
IPC: C02F3/00
Filed: 2006-03-22
Granted: 2013-08-27
Abstract: A method and system for treating water or wastewater to remove both soluble BOD and suspended solids. The method entails a ballasted flocculation process where a flocculant and insoluble granular material is added to the water or wastewater to be treated causing solids in the water or wastewater to aggregate around the granular material to form ballasted floc particles. In a settling zone, ballasted floc particles form settled sludge and the settled sludge is separated from clarified effluent. At some point in the process, activated sludge, in the form of return activated sludge or mixed liquor, is mixed with the water or wastewater being subjected to the ballasted flocculation process. The addition of activated sludge enables the process to remove soluble BOD.

Title: Fuel valve for supplying fuel to an auxiliary heating device in a motor vehicle
Inventor: GALTZ GUNTER
IPC: F16K31/06
Filed: 2006-10-12
Granted: 2011-01-25
Abstract: A fuel valve (10) for supplying fuel to an auxiliary heating device in a motor vehicle comprises a magnet coil (12), a magnet armature (14) and a spring (16) which can be compressed by the magnetic force generated when a pick-up voltage is applied to the magnet coil and causes the magnet armature to move; at a maximum residual voltage applied to the magnet coil, the spring overcomes the magnetic force and expands. According to the invention, a spring force-distance travelled characteristic curve (FWK) is adapted in such a way that it lies, for all relevant values of distance travelled, between a magnetic force-distance travelled characteristic curve with applied pick-up voltage (MWKA) and a magnetic force-distance travelled characteristic curve with applied maximum residual voltage (MWKR).
