Patent CA-2839974-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCNAMARA BERNARD
IPC: B65D90/08
Filed: 2011-07-14
Abstract: The water tank comprises a number of peripherally disposed modular wall components, each modular wall component defining a radially inner exposed surface, for direct engagement with the water inside the water tank, and a radially outer formwork area, for receiving liquid concrete to be cured. An integral hinge edgewisely interlocks each pair of successive modular wall components. An expansible joint is mounted into each hinge, wherein the expansible joint cooperates with the hinge so as to releasably interlock the modular wall components in their peripherally disposed fashion. The expansible joint provides a water tight seal at the hinge when soaked in water for a sufficient period of time. A second bevelled seal joint is further mounted against the hinge adjacent each wall component inner exposed surface spacedly from and radially inwardly from the expansible joint. Both first and second seal joints are for direct liquid engagement with the water tank water. A biocide agent is integrated within the radially outward second seal joint, wherein bacterial/fungus contamination of the water tank water is mitigated.

Patent CA-2849381-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YANG JUN
IPC: G03F7/00
Filed: 2012-10-03
Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method of fabrication of free standing open pore membranes with uniform pore size and shape and ordered pore distribution, and its use for synthesis of nanoparticle patterns. The method includes applying a photoresist layer to the top surface of a substrate, heating the photoresist layer for a period of time, and exposing the photoresist layer to a dose of ultraviolet radiation through a mask having a predetermined pattern. The dose of ultraviolet radiation is controlled in intensity and time and the photoresist layer is exposed such that a top portion of the photoresist layer through which the dose of ultraviolet radiation enters the photoresist layer undergoes greater cross linking than a bottom portion of the photoresist layer immediately adjacent to the top surface of the substrate such that a cross linking gradient develops through a thickness of the photoresist layer. The mask is removed and the membrane is readily detached from the top surface of the substrate since the portion of the membrane adjacent to the top surface is less cross linked than the top surface of the membrane. The detached membrane forms a free standing patterned membrane having a preselected pattern of open pores. The method can be used with positive photoresist materials as well when deposited on a UV transparent substrate so that the photoresist can be exposed to UV from its top with photomask and UV exposure from its back of the transparent substrate without the photomask.
Patent CA-2850565-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOOLEY JOSEPH
IPC: C02F5/08
Filed: 2011-12-09
Abstract: A high efficiency water purification system is provided incorporating recovery of a portion concentrate wastewater associated with the reverse osmosis unit. This reduces the overall volume of concentrate wastewater requiring discharge/disposal by reusing the purified concentrate of a concentrate recovery units as RO feed water. Initial feedwater is pressurized and passed through an RO membrane, and separated into a permeate flow and a concentrate flow. A portion of the higher pressure concentrate is then directed to an additional set of thin film composite membranes (concentrate recovery membranes). The concentrate recovery membranes are arranged in an array such that the concentrate pressure is adequate to provide the force required to drive the concentrate through the recovery system membranes. The permeate produced by the concentrate recovery system is directed back to the feed of the primary RO unit; thereby, reducing the volume of raw feed water required for system operation.
