Patent EP-0826229-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LENZ ERIC H
IPC: H01L21/302
Filed: 1996-05-17
Abstract: An electrode clamping assembly for a plasma reaction chamber wherein processing of a single wafer can be carried out. The electrode assembly includes a support member (32), an electrode (30) such as a silicon showerhead electrode in the form of a disk having uniform thickness and a clamping ring (34) which provides a resilient clamping force pressing against the showerhead electrode. The clamping member can be ring of elastically deformable material and the clamping member can be tightened by a plurality of elastic spaced-apart bolts (35) such that the clamping member is compressed and provides the resilient clamping force throughout temperature cycling of the electrode assembly during wafer processing. Heat conduction between the showerhead electrode and the support member can be improved by supplying pressurized process gas to a gap therebetween. The clamping member also provides plasma confinement in an area between the electrode and the wafer being processed.

Title: Catalytic purification process and device for exhaust gas from a combustion system
Inventor: MUELLER RAIMUND
IPC: B01D53/86
Filed: 1996-06-21
Abstract: Exhaust gas to be cleaned is introduced into a conversion and mixing duct and the exhaust gas flows through the duct along a predetermined longitudinal direction. A reducing agent, such as aqueous urea solution, is injected into the exhaust gas stream in the conversion and mixing duct. The exhaust gas stream is then deflected into a reaction duct which extends parallel to or coaxially around the conversion and mixing duct. The exhaust gas then flows in the opposite direction through the reaction duct. A reduction catalyst is disposed in the reaction duct, where the reducible components of the exhaust gas are reduced. The exhaust gas cleaned in this manner is then discharged from the reaction duct.

Abstract: A medical connector is for use in transferring fluids to and from a patient. The connector has a primary conduit, which has an upstream branch in fluid communication with a primary source of fluid and a downstream branch in fluid communication with a patient. The connector also has a secondary conduit in fluid communication with said primary conduit. Additionally, the connector has a hollow, resilient valve positioned such that the primary fluid can flow through the valve when the valve is in a decompressed state. The valve has a tab extending into the secondary conduit such that a luer inserted in the secondary conduit compresses the tab, thereby preventing flow of the primary fluid through the connector while permitting both flow of fluid to the patient from the luer and flow of fluid from the patient to the luer.

Abstract: An MIS device (20) includes a semiconducting substrate (22), a silicon nitride buffer layer (24), a ferroelectric metal oxyde superlattice material (26), and a noble metal top electrode (28). The layered superlattice material (26) is preferably a strontium bismuth tantalate, strontium bismuth niobate, or strontium bismuth niobium tantalate. The device is constructed according to a preferred method that includes forming the silicon nitride on the semiconducting substrate prior to deposition of the layered superlattice material. The layered superlattice material is preferably deposited using liquid polyoxyalkylated metal organic precursors that spontaneously generate a layered superlattice upon heating of the precursor solution. UV exposure during drying of the precursor liquid imparts a C-axis orientation to the final crystal, and results in improved thin-film electrical properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a deodorizing system for
reducing the size of a facility and realizing the thermal efficiency
much higher than the prior art, and a deodorizing furnace 1 is
connected with a thermal equipment 8 which uses a gas current
having a medium/low temperature as a heat source through an out-of-furnace
circulating path 4 in order to circulate combustion exhaust gas
in a deodorizing furnace 2 which has been used for incineration or
thermal decomposition of odor components. When the combustion
exhaust gas passes through a regenerative bed 5A or 5B on an intake
side of the out-of-furnace circulating path, a part of sensible heat of
the combustion exhaust gas is recovered in the regenerative bed 5A or
5B and the combustion exhaust gas is turned into a gas current having
a medium/low temperature that can be used in the thermal equipment
8 to be then supplied to the thermal equipment 8. Subsequently,
upon completion of a predetermined process in the thermal equipment
8, the combustion exhaust gas is again made to have a high
temperature and returned to the deodorizing furnace 2 by utilizing the
recovered heat in the regenerative bed 5B or 5A on an outlet side of
the out-of-furnace circulating path. By doing so, of the heat
generated in the deodorizing furnace 2, the heat which has failed to be
recovered in the regenerative bed 5A or 5B and wasted can be used as
a heat source of the thermal equipment 8, reducing the size of the
facility and the cost without additionally requiring a hot blast furnace
for the thermal equipment 8.

Abstract: A method is described for the biological treatment

has a temperature of at least 25°C, which involves the
wastewater being passed through the said reactor(s) with a
population, obtained by natural selection in the absence of
sludge retention, in the suspended state of nitrifying and
denitrifying bacteria to form, in a first stage with the
infeed of oxygen, a nitrite-rich wastewater and by the
nitrite-rich wastewater thus obtained being subjected, if
required, in a second stage without the infeed of oxygen,
to denitrification in the presence of a carbon source such
as methanol, in such a way that the contact time between
the ammonium-rich wastewater and the nitrifying bacteria is
at most about two days, and the pH of the medium is
controlled between 6.5 and 8.5 by the infeed of the said
carbon source, and the excess, formed by growth, of
nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria and the effluent
formed by the denitrification are extracted, the demand for
the said carbon source during the treatment being
controlled as a function of the amount of heat produced in
the reactor. In addition the growth rate of the nitrifying
and denitrifying bacteria is expediently controlled by
means of the retention time, in the reactor, of the wastewater
to be treated which is fed in.
