Patent EP-1287872-B1 (EP)
Inventor: NABEKURA K
IPC: B01D37/02

Abstract: The present invention provides a filtration method of copper electrolyte that can remove minute electrolytic by-products and dirt and may improve filtration efficiency by improving a conventional filtration method, the so-called precoating method. In a filtration method of copper electrolyte for removing electrolytic by-products and dirt which affect copper electrolysis, by passing copper electrolyte through a filter element precoated with a filtering aid, in the present invention, a precoated layer of a filtering aid is formed on a filter element in advance. Activated carbon preliminary treatment solution containing powdery activated carbon is passed through the filter element formed with the precoated layer, and is also circulated until no powdery activated carbon leaks from an outlet of the filter element, thus forming a powdery activated carbon layer on the precoated layer. Subsequently, the copper electrolyte is passed through for filtration.

Abstract: A cryptographic process permits one to verifiably shuffle a series of input data elements. One or more authorities or individuals "shuffle," or "anonymize" the input data (e.g. public keys in discrete log form or ElGamal encrypted ballot data). The process includes a validity construction that prevents any one or more of the authorities or individuals from making any changes to the original data without being discovered by anyone auditing a resulting proof transcript. The shuffling may be performed at various times. In the election example, the shuffling may be performed, e.g., after ballots are collected or during the registration, or ballot request phase of the election, thereby anonymizing the identities of the voters.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coating element, a coated fibrous web, and methods for manufacturing the same. The invention also relates to a particle granule. The coating element comprises a pigment binder structure granule formed from pigment particles and a binding agent and, possibly, additives, the pigment particles being bound to one another through a binding agent. According to the invention, the shape of the granule is essentially rotationally symmetrical, comprising an inner part and a crust part, the density of the inner part being lower than the crust part. The granules can be prepared by spray drying from aqueous slurry that contains a pigment, binder, and possible additives. The shape of the coating elements can be altered by using controlled deformation. They can be flattened, for example, by calendering to form the surface of a desired shape, and attached to the surface of the fibrous web without a separate binder or by adding a small amount of binder only.

Abstract: The invention provides a synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent, a method for producing it, and a method of using it for exterminating soil fungi. The synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent is prepared by adding starch to an inorganic hydrated sulfur agent, and sulfur is enveloped in starch in the agent. When the agent is applied to soil, microbes and pathogenic fungi (fusariums, pythiums and other various mold fungi) in soil act on the saccharides such as glucose polymerized with starch, and they are attracted by the grains of the agent. While the microbes and pathogenic fungi thus attracted them degrade the grains, they are kept in contact with the sulfur having been released from the degraded grains and are thereby killed. Not deactivated in soil, sulfur in the synthetic hydrated organosulfur agent exhibits its fungicidal activity for a long period of time. <IMAGE>
