Abstract: A method and system for collecting information associated with warewashing activities is disclosed. Articles to be cleaned by a warewasher are placed in racks designed to fit inside a wash chamber of the warewasher. Each rack is assigned a unique identifier (ID). No two racks are associated with the same unique ID. An Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) tag is embedded within or placed on the outer shell of each rack. The RFID tag of a rack is programmed with the unique ID assigned to the rack. An RFID reader reads the unique ID of each rack as the racks are placed into the warewasher. The RFID reader transmits the unique ID to a host computer where the unique ID is stamped with a time reference, stored and eventually uploaded to a server computer. The unique ID and associated time reference are analyzed by the server computer, the host computer or a client computer connected to the server computer in order to monitor performance of the warewasher. For example, the analysis may calculate the total number of racks provided to the wash chamber over a given period in time.

Abstract: A method of identifying pixels of a given color in a field of YUV video manipulates color difference signals (R-Y, B-Y) corresponding to defining axes (U, V) of a color space to maximize the video signal in a region of interest of the space, and minimize the signal in all other regions. Additionally, the color difference signal corresponding to one axis may be rotated toward the other axis, or the entire color space may be rotated to bring the region of interest onto or near one of the axes. The signal gains and rotations may be carried out in the signal processing circuits of a conventional color camera (12) so that only one comparator is needed to detect target color. After rotation and application of gain, the color difference signal defining the region of interest is compared with a threshold value to determine if a pixel is of the target color. A video camera may be mounted on an agricultural sprayer to detect green weeds on the brown soil, by identifying the green pixels in the image captured while the sprayer travels in the field. A spray material may be released upon the weed once the weed is detected.

in the second network to a signal to be used in the first network.
The detection section detects conversion-process information
containing at least one of the time spent to convert the signal
and the amount of data converted. The network-connecting

Abstract: The process involves compressing fumes, and extracting part of the carbon dioxide to produce fumes with a low CO2 content and a high-pressure carbon dioxide. A coolant fluid is vaporized by heat exchange with the high-temperature and low pressure fumes, and with the medium and high-pressure fumes. The vaporized fluid is expanded and mechanical energy recuperated by turbines. The process involves compressing the fumes, e.g. from a gas turbine (TG) or furnace, first to produce a medium and then a high pressure, extracting part of the carbon dioxide to produce fumes with a low CO2 content and a high-pressure carbon dioxide. A coolant fluid is vaporized by heat exchange with the high-temperature and low pressure fumes, and with the medium and high-pressure fumes as they pass through heat exchangers (E01, E02, E03) with the energy from the heat exchangers recuperated by a turbine (T) linked to a power generator (GE2). The vaporized fluid is expanded and mechanical energy recuperated by turbines (T1, T2), and the fluid is condensed by cooling and then compressed for return to the heat exchangers. The mechanical energy is used for the extraction of carbon dioxide from the high-pressure fumes, and the gas is compressed and stored in an underground tank.
