Abstract: A known irrigation emitter unit provided at the end of an irrigation pipe comprises an inner member located and retained inside an outer member by way of a plastic molded annular flange and recess. This is unsatisfactory in that the inner member can be expelled from the outer member given a relatively high water pressure and in that the inner member is recessed with respect to the outer edges of the outer member wherein water can accumulate. The present invention is directed to an irrigation emitter unit comprising an outer member (11) in which is located an inner member (25) by way of molded terminal portions (20) of the outer member (11). Both the inner and outer members form a flush unit. Furthermore, as the terminal portions (20) are molded to the inner members (25), the irrigation emitter unit can withstand a greater water pressure than known previously. The present invention also extends to a process of manufacturing such a fluid flow control unit. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention a pour objet d'améliorer la sécurité de fonctionnement de systèmes d'éclairage à lumière polarisé. A cet effet, on fait tourner un sens indésirable de polarisation par déviation sur des moyens ayant une surface rugueuse, ce qui permet de ne pas utiliser des lames dites quart d'onde. On améliore en outre la sécurité de fonctionnement en utilisant deux sources indépendantes de lumière pourvues de leurs propres moyens de focalisation. Les sources de lumière sont commandées par des éléments de commande de façon à réduire la charge à laquelle les sources individuelles de lumière sont exposées. L'invention est applicable de préférence pour éclairer des soupapes optiques à cristaux liquides qui font partie d'un système de projection.

Abstract: The basis of the invention is the problem of combining, by means of a suitable process for the anaerobic treatment of water, the advantages of the vertical tube reactors having a narrow residence time spectrum with low overall height of the apparatus and low costs. The individual part-steps of the denitrification are to proceed undisturbed individually and successively. According to the invention, the raw water (1) to be treated is passed via at least two fluidised bed reactors (3) connected one after the other and in the operating state is transported, with support material overgrown by biomass, from each reactor stage into the subsequent reactor stage. This support material is passed with the water stream leaving the last reactor into a separation unit (7) from which the separated support material is returned into the first reactor stage (3a). Depending on the pressure drop  DELTA p in the individual reactor stages (3), the water to be treated can be passed via reactor stages (3a, 3b ...) staggered in height. <IMAGE>
