Abstract: A method for compacting radioactive metal waste including a zirconium alloy, the radioactive metal waste being contained in a capsule C, comprises the steps of: transporting the capsule C in a processing chamber 31 whose volume is slightly larger than the volume of the capsule C; drawing the air from the processing chamber 31 in a closed state to put the processing chamber 31 in a vacuum state; compressing and compacting the capsule C by reducing the volume of the processing chamber 31 in the vacuum state; and transporting out the compacted capsule C from the processing chamber 31. An apparatus has an arrangement to carry out the compacting method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for removing water from sludges, such as sludges from woodhandling or community sewage treatment plants or the like biosludges, in order to make it possible to dewater these sludges mechanically to a high dry matter content, for instance by pressing at a high pressure. Such methods comprising following subsequent steps: coagulating (12), flocculating (14) and removing water mechanically (20) from the sludge by pressing. The method according to the invention further comprises an intense pretreatment step for the sludge prior to the removal of water from the sludge, in which intense pretreatment step the sludge is treated by physical or physical-chemical means by vigorously mixing the sludge and electrically ionizing (36) it or treating it with ultrasound, in order to activate the water bound to the sludge and to make the chemicals to be added to the sludge more effective.

Inventor: BONIFAS CORINNE
IPC: G07F7/08
Filed: 1995-08-31
Abstract: Card reader for game machine, comprising a memory (42) which contains a minimum credit value and receives the credit value available from a card. At each stage of the game, the available credit value varies. The available credit value is compared, on each transaction, with the minimum value. When the available credit value is less than the minimum value, a circuit (47) triggers seizure of the card. A reader of this type can operate by performing all transactions in a memory within the reader, only reading the card memory when the card is inserted into the reader and updating it when the card is ejected. Application: smart card readers for game machines.

Abstract: A series of resilient dielectric wiper blades (131) are mounted between electrodes (125a, 125b) and a workpiece to wipe bubbles of hydrogen from a cathodic workpiece surface, sever dendritic material, if present, and remove a surface layer of partially depleted electrolytic solution and replace with fresh solution, and in the case of flexible strip coating, to stabilize the strip between electrodes (125a, 125b). In the case of anodizing, the flexible wiper blades remove a layer of overheated electrolytic solution from adjacent the surface of the anodic workpiece. In both electroplating and anodizing the flexible wiping blades are preferably used with perforated electrodes (125a, 125b) to facilitate removal of depleted or overheated electrolytic solution and replacement with freshly circulated solution.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un système de chiffrement sécurisé du type comportant une première limite de sécurité (15). Un mécanisme de commande (50) à l'intérieur de la première limite de sécurité régit l'utilisation de clés de chiffrement en fonction de vecteurs de commande qui sont liés à ces clés par chiffrement. Ce système comporte un module (20) présentant une seconde limite de sécurité (25) et, à l'intérieur de cette seconde limite de sécurité, un organe (30) servant à stocker une clé secrète, une logique de déchiffrement permettant de déchiffrer une clé de données à l'aide de la clé secrète, et une logique permettant d'exécuter un algorithme de chiffrement à l'aide de la clé secrète. Ledit mécanisme de commande et ledit module sont conçus pour se passer l'un l'autre, lors du passage d'un chemin d'entrée/sortie par la seconde limite de sécurité, une clé de données sous forme chiffrée de telle sorte que la clé de donnée chiffrée puisse être déchiffrée uniquement à l'aide de la clé secrète, ledit mécanisme de commande étant conçu pour régir l'utilisation de la clé de données en fonction d'un vecteur de commande qui est lié par chiffrement à cette clé de donnée chiffrée. Ceci permet de maintenir une séparation structurelle entre la composante responsable de l'exécution des algorithmes de chiffrement et les autres parties du système, de telle sorte que le nombre de fonctions requises de la composante responsable de l'exécution des algorithmes de chiffrement soit réduit à un minimum.

Abstract: A device input/output ("I/O") monitoring mechanism is disclosed serving as an interface between a computer operating system kernel (26) and a device driver (30,32,34), which obviates the necessity of implementing specific pseudo-device drivers for various peripheral devices (36,38,40) and provides a standard interface between, for example, computer mass storage devices and a computer operating system. The I/O monitoring mechanism disclosed is of especial utility in the measurement of general storage device I/O performance and allows I/O statistics to be presented to application-level software (24) operating in conjunction with a computer operating system which facilitates the identification of storage device "hot spots" within metadevices and sub-metadevices. The mechanism of the present invention is usable across a wide range of storage device peripheral hardware and device drivers and allows user-level (22) program code to readily determine the associated physical sub-component.

Abstract: The method involves forming photographic first copies from the master in a first passage through a first photographic copying apparatus (PR). Required photographic second copies are provided in a second passage through a second photographic apparatus (PRa). In the first passage the copy master is scanned in a measurement station (1) of the first copier device region-wise, preferably point-wise. The transmitted or remitted measurement light from each scan region of the master copy is fed to a detector arrangement (2). The light is spectrally split up and converted into wavelength dependent and intensity dependent electric measurement signals. These signals are digitised and analysed to provide master specific data. Using this data and a master document model (20) the quantities of light required for the exposure are generated in a computer and control device (4) of the first copier (PR). Control signals are derived from the light quantities for colour filters and shutters in the copier station of the first copier (PR). The resulting first copies are developed in a developing station (PP). The second copier (PRa) is calibrated by means of a single test process on the first copier (PR). The single test process involves feeding the master specific data derived during the first passage through the first copier (PR) to a computer and control unit of the second copier (PRa). Using this data and a master model representative of the ratio of the copier material when the spectral composition of the copier is changed, the quantities of light required for exposure are determined in the computer and control unit of the second copier. Control signals are derived from the light quantities for colour filters and shutters in the copier station of the second copier (PR). The resulting second copies are developed in a developing station (PP) and are subject to analysis. Based on the analysis the model for the second copier is optimised until the second copies are essentially identical to the first copies.
