Title: Water treatment plant with ballasted flocs and degreasing
Inventor: BINOT PATRICK
IPC: C02F1/52
Filed: 2002-02-08
Abstract: The invention concerns the use of a coagulation-flocculation-decantation device for water treatment to degrease water inside the device itself so as to eliminate therefrom more than 20% of hexane-extractable matter without resorting to separate degreasing means by flotation. The invention also concerns a plant comprising a coagulation-flocculation-decantation device by ballasted flocs having a coagulation zone ( 1 ), means supplying ( 4 ) a granular material denser than water ( 4 ), a flocculation ( 6 ), a decantation zone ( 8 ) and means for recycling ( 15 ) granular material including at least a hydrocyclone ( 17 ). The characterised in that it does nut comprise degreasing means provided upstream of the coagulation-flocculation-decantation device, the grease being removed from the water inside the coagulation-flocculation-decantation device itself without means for injecting air or an equivalent gas.

Abstract: In a radio access network, a drift radio network controller (DRNC) [262] transmits to a serving radio network controller (SRNC) [261] either (1) a filtering rule for a candidate cell [so that the serving radio network controller (SRNC) can generate a measurement list for a user equipment unit having a connection controlled by the serving radio network controller (SRNC)], or (2) a list of cells qualifying [according to filtering rules stored at and applied by the drift radio network controller (DRNC)] for inclusion in the measurement list for the user equipment unit. The filtering rule provides criteria useful for determining whether the candidate cell qualifies for inclusion in the measurement list of cells for the user equipment unit. If the candidate cell is a shared cell or cell for which the user equipment unit otherwise has permission for usage, the candidate cell qualifies for inclusion in the measurement list for the user equipment unit. On the other hand, if the candidate cell is a unshared cell for which the user equipment unit has no permission for usage, the candidate cell does not qualify for inclusion in the measurement list for the user equipment unit. The filtering rule itself can take various forms, and the filtering rule-bearing Iur message can have various formats possibly with transmission economizing features of the invention. In one mode of the invention, the drift radio network controller (DRNC) may itself apply the filtering rule to determine whether the candidate cell qualifies for the measurement list. In a hybrid mode, filtering functions are initially performed by the serving radio network controller (SRNC) and subsequently performed by the drift radio network controller (DRNC).

An optical disc using wobble patterns to record different information has a first groove ( 2 - 1 ) having a first wobble pattern ( 22 ) in which one wobble period has a sharp rising edge and a gradual falling edge; and a second groove ( 2 - 2 ) having a second wobble pattern ( 24 ) in which one wobble period has a gradual rising edge and a sharp falling edge. Each of the first and the second wobble pattern is represented by a first fundamental and a second harmonic of a Fourier series. The polarity of the second harmonic, which is an even harmonic, of the second wobble pattern is opposite that of the first wobble pattern.
