Title: Method for separating metal contaminants from organic polymers
IPC: C08F6/08
Filed: 1988-10-27
Abstract: A method for separating metal residues from a polymer wherein a solution or suspension of said polymer is contacted with an aqueous solution containing one or more inorganic acids in the presence of a monocarboxylic acid containing from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. The polymer solution or suspension will be contacted with an oxidizing agent either prior to or simultaneously with the contacting with the aqueous inorganic acid solution. The inorganic acid is, preferably, a mineral acid and the monocarboxylic acid is preferably a branched chain alkanoic acid having from 6 to 10 carbon atoms. When a monocarboxylic acid is used in combination with the inorganic acid, the amount of metal removed from the polymer is increased and the amount of the aqueous phase containing ionized metal entrained in the organic phase is significantly reduced.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/BE84/00008 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 20, 1984 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 20, 1984 PCT Filed Mar. 13, 1984 PCT Pub. No. WO84/03690 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 27, 1984.The present invention provides a continuous method for preparing phosphoric acid and calcium sulphate by reacting calcium phosphate with a mixture of sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid. Our method uses at least three successive crystallization steps: a first step of reacting the phosphate with the mixture of phosphoric and sulphuric acids and forming a-hemihydrate calcium sulphate, a second step of recrystallizing the a-hemihydrate into dihydrate and a third step of transforming the dehydrated calcium sulfate into a hemihydrate or anhydrite II or a mixture of the two. Where desired recycling of the products from the above steps can be used for increasing the efficiency of the above method.

Patent AU-3108500-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for synchronizing a substrate processing system
Inventor: OH HILARIO
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 1999-12-01
Abstract: A wafer cluster tool comprising a series of processes has a scheduler which synchronizes all events in the system. Events in the cluster tool are scheduled to occur at regular, periodic intervals, thereby improving throughput and quality. The scheduler also eliminates conflicts for transportation resources between modules in the cluster tool. Wafers are loaded into the cluster tool at a regular interval, referred to as a sending period. All events in the system are synchronized with the sending period, and all event timings are normalized in terms of the sending period. The conflicts are resolved by selectively adding delays in modules which can tolerate them without degrading throughput or performance in the system; modules that cannot tolerate delays are exempted. The periodicity of the scheduled cluster tool enables the identification of wafers in the cluster tool. The identification of the order in which a wafer was loaded also identifies a module path followed by the wafer.

Title: Novel entities for cancer therapy
Inventor: HUBER BRIAN
IPC: C07H19/06
Filed: 1997-08-15
Abstract: Novel molecular chimaeras produced by recombinant DNA techniques are described. They comprise a target tissue specific transcriptional regulatory sequence (TRS) linked and controlling the expression of a heterologous enzyme for example Varicella Zoster Virus Thymidine Kinase (VZV TK) gene. A molecular chimaera is packaged into a synthetic retroviral particle which is capable of infecting mammalian tissue. This in turn may be administered to a patient, and the TRS will be selectively transcriptionally activated in the target tissue (for example cancerous tissue). Administration of compounds which are selectively metabolised by the enzyme produce cytotoxic or cytostatic metabolites insitu thereby selectively killing or arresting the growth of the target cell.

Patent AU-3665284-A (AU)
Title: Analog signal verification circuit
Inventor: BRUCKERT EDWARD ARTHUR
IPC: H04M3/30
Filed: 1984-12-13
Abstract: The present system employs a high speed digital signal processor which is programmed to generate pairs of digitized waveforms, each pair representing a pair of different frequencies in response to coded input signals. Each pair of different digitized waveforms, when converted and combined into an analog signal, represents a «tone pair» as used in major telephone systems. The tone pairs are transmitted through an anti-aliasing filter circuit (27) and therefrom through amplification circuitry (139) to a tone pair decoder (19) of the type used in major telephone systems. At the tone pair decoder the tone pair signals are reconverted into binary signals. The binary signals from the tone pair decoder are transmitted to a data processor (11) in the system under test, whereat they may or may not be further decoded. Ultimately the binary signals are compared with the coded input signals originally sent. In this way, the system which is designed to handle digital signals and which is designed to handle digital to analog conversions, is tested. The test circuit employs components already present in the system, or readily adaptable from the major telephone systems equipment.
