Abstract: The invention relates to a submerged aerated filter for filtering sewage. The filter comprises a filter vessel 11 with a base 13. The base 13 supports a non-plastics particulate media column 12 in the vessel. Gas and sewage are pumped into the bottom of the column 12 and flow upwardly along the column 12. The particles have an average diameter of greater than 10 mm and are normally made from blast furnace slag or stone. This provides a column 12 that is very economical to produce and is not easily disturbed by the fluid flow through the filter. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A beam homogenizer that minimizes undesired intensity variations at the output plane caused by sharp breaks between facets in previous embodiments. The homogenizer includes a hologram made up of irregularly patterned diffractive fringes. An input beam illuminates at least part of the hologram. The hologram transmits a portion of the input beam onto an output plane. In doing so, the energy of the input beam is spatially redistributed at the output plane into a homogenized output beam having a preselected spatial energy distribution at the output plane. Thus, the illuminated portion of the output plane has a shape predetermined by the designer of the homogenizer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing active oxygen ions in the air for improved air quality, comprising at least one air ionizer and an electric transformer producing sufficient electrical high voltage for air ionization. The air ionizer is coupled to a sensor which detects the oxidizable gas content in the air (air pollution sensor). On the basis of the detected content of such oxidizable gases, the electrical energy which is guided to the air ionizer is transformed by an electrical control device in such a way that only low-level ionization occurs at low concentration of oxidizable gases. Said ionization is sensor-controlled and can automatically be increased to a maximum value when the concentration of oxidizable gases rises.
