Abstract: A waste water treatment apparatus for treating waste water containing crushed garbage discharged from a disposer. The apparatus has a housing accommodating various treatment sections and maintenance ports that can be closed and, when opened, provide accesses to the treatment sections. Each of the maintenance ports is provided with a sensor for detecting the condition of the associated port. The apparatus is also provided with a controller which stops the operation of a treatment section for which the port thereof is found opened by the port sensor. The invention may prevent safety and hygienic problems caused by unintentional opening of the ports and minimize time loss due to the maintenance required, thereby maximizing the utility of the apparatus.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a process for recovering hydrogen cyanide from an aqueous solution by extracting the hydrogen cyanide into an organic solvent phase. The organic solvent may comprise a neutral organophosphorous compounds, such as compounds selected from the group consisting of alkyl or aryl substituted phosphates, phosphonates and phosphine oxides. In alternative embodiments the organophosphorous compound is tri-butyl phosphate, di-butyl-butyl-phosphonate or tri-alkyl phosphine oxides. The organic solvent may be diluted in an organic diluent, such as an aliphatic or kerosene-type diluent. Alternative dilutions may be used, such as 75%, 50% or 25%. In some embodiments, the pH of the aqueous solution containing dissolved cyanide may be adjusted to between 2 and 8, or between 3 and 7, or between 4 and 6. The organic solvent may be contacted following extraction with a basic aqueous solution to strip cyanide from the organic solvent into a basic aqueous cyanide strip solution. The stripped organic solvent may then be returned to the loading process, to extract HCN from fresh aqueous solution.

Abstract: A sensor system (10) for locating transmitters incorporates three vehicle-mounted patch antennas (30 to 34), a signal processing unit (40), a navigation unit (50) and a computer (60). The navigation unit (50) measures sensor system position using the Global Positioning System. The antennas (30 to 34) receive radiation from a transmitter (210) to be located and respond by generating output signals which are frequency downconverted and processing coherently by a digital signal processing unit (230). This produces elevation and azimuth phase data for the computer (60), which determines measured phase differences. The computer (60) also calculates expected phase differences from antenna positions and trial transmitter positions. It determines transmitter location from correlation between measured and expected phase differences. The position of a transmitter (210) is determined for a number of sensor system positions.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil (200) de polissage chimico-mécanique (CMP) de plaquettes semiconductrices (205), qui permet une micro-commande de chaque tourillon (201) pour une performance de CMP sur mesure. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un outil de CMP qui comprend un pont fixe (220) qui abrite un ensemble crémaillère (250). Ce dernier est couplé à plusieurs ensembles moteurs (210), chacun d'entre eux étant couplé afin de faire tourner un tourillon (201). Les mouvements des tourillons (201) sont individuellement et indépendamment commandés par l'ensemble crémaillère (250). Un avantage de ce modèle de mouvement de tourillon (201) indépendant est le fait d'optimiser le processus de CMP pour chaque tourillon (201) et de permettre une prévision plus exacte de l'effet de translation sur la performance de CMP. La rotation indépendante ou la capacité de portance négative de la présente invention fournit une flexibilité plus importante en termes de réglage de vitesse de polissage et d'uniformité. Un autre avantage de la présente invention réside dans le fait qu'une fermeture plus compacte peut être obtenue pour l'isolation de la plaquette.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for forming a pipe (21), preferably a plastic pipe, in several steps. In a first step, the initial and essentially circular cross-section of said pipe is radially flattened on at least one side by forming the pipe in a first deforming direction. In a second step, said cross-section is formed in a second deforming direction that is essentially vertical in relation to the first deforming direction. After deforming, the final cross-section is provided with a reduced outside diameter and at least one section that is folded towards the inside. The aim of the invention is to provide such methods in a more cost-effective manner. According to the invention, the pipe (21) rests on a holding device (12) and a diametrically opposing support device after the pipe has been deformed in the first deforming direction (6). The holding device (12) rests on the flattened section. The flattened section is automatically spaced apart from the holding device (12) by deforming in the second deforming direction and for producing the section (21) that is folded towards the inside.

Abstract: There is provided a microchip-based differential-type carbon dioxide gas sensor for detecting dissolved carbon dioxide levels. It functions with at least one working electrode composed of an unbuffered hydrogel membrane containing a certain amount of sodium bicarbonate and a pH-sensitive gas-permeable membrane; and a reference electrode composed of a buffered hydrogel membrane and a pH-sensitive gas-permeable membrane. The unbuffered hydrogel membrane contains carbonic anhydrase, which reduces the time period for the hydration of carbon dioxide, thereby allowing the quick measurement of the level of carbon dioxide.
