IPC: C02F3/06
Filed: 1992-07-23
Abstract: Apparatus 1 for treating a fluid, in this case wastewater, comprising a vessel or tank 2, means 3 to supply the wastewater in an alternating sequence to the vessel 2, anda means 4 for oxygenating the bed of granular media 5 to provide aerated filter media. The filter bed is aerated during operation by air, oxygen enriched air or other gas being introduced at or adjacent the base (as viewed) of the bed through the means 4, which may be a perforated manifold, diffuser or the like extending substantially over the whole surface area of the bed 5. Also the bed 5 is a granular media such as natural minerals or blast furnace slag media to the surface of the discrete particles of which is attached bacteria and micro-organisms (a biomass) which effects treatment of the fluid. The influent at 3 derived from sewage is counter current to the air, and is particularly a non-nitrified influent namely wastewater that has previously been treated to reduce the BOD (biological oxygen demand) and suspended solids concentrations. The blast furnace slag media 5 has an average particle diameter of 2.8-4.0mm and a porosity of 13.9%. In carrying out the process the periodic reversal of the flow through the filter bed maintain the concentration gradient of the micro-organisms (biomass) substantially uniform as a desired concentration of micro-organisms throughout the depth of the bed under all operating conditions in the embodiments illustrated. This provides for a uniform, efficient treatment of the sewage. <IMAGE>

Patent NZ-266204-A (NZ)
Title: Broadcast calls to selected cellular mobiles
Inventor: YARWOOD ANTHONY CHARLES
IPC: H04W4/90
Filed: 1994-05-23
Abstract: In a cellular radio system the facility is provided for a call to be broadcast from a control centre (Mx), (for example an emergency service controller), or from any of the mobile units (Ma), (Mb), (Mc) etc., to all of the others. Each cell allocates a single channel to the broadcast service, irrespective of the number of mobile units in the cell. This allows more efficient use of the available channels than the use of a separate channel for each mobile unit. In one embodiment no channel is allocated to a cell unless at least one mobile unit responds to a paging signal in that cell. Paging may continue throughout a broadcast call to allow a channel to be allocated when a mobile unit enters a previously unoccupied cell or to allow release of a channel should all mobiles leave a previously occupied cell. The broadcast facility can be provided on a cellular network which also supports other mobile units which do not receive the broadcast service, and whose operation is not affected by it.
Patent NZ-290769-A (NZ)
Title: Highly oxidised non-toxic carotenoid and retinoid derivatives
Inventor: BURTON GRAHAM
IPC: A61P35/00
Filed: 1995-08-10
Abstract: beta -Carotene and canthaxanthin, as representative carotenoids, and to a lesser extent, retinoic acid, a representative retinoid, undergo extensive oxidation to yield substances, insofar as oxidized  beta -carotene is a model, which have properties useful as non-toxic agents active against cell proliferation, tumors, and tumorigenic viruses, and useful as promoters of cell differentiation. It is evident from chemical analysis of the highly oxidized  beta -carotene product mixture that none of the various forms of vitamin A are present or are present only in minor amounts. Furthermore, the biological activities of oxidized canthaxanthin and retinoic acid, which cannot form, vitamin A, indicate the presence of active substances that are different from vitamin A. Although the anti-proliferative and differentiation promotion activities of oxidized  beta -carotene resemble those of vitamin A itself, generally the effects are more powerful for oxidized  beta -carotene in a wide variety of circumstances. Unlike vitamin A, the oxidized  beta -carotene of the invention is non-toxic.
