Abstract: Water in a process water system, such as a cooling tower or pulp and paper processing plant, is treated to destroy biological microorganisms by diverting the portion of the water flowing through the system to a side stream. In the side stream, chemicals are added such as halide ions or sodium chlorite. The water is then passed through an electrolysis unit or a UV radiation unit to oxidize the precursor to form an active oxidant. Advantageously, the pH of the side stream can be lowered to significantly improve the oxidization of the halide ions. When a very small portion of the flow rate is passing through the side stream, the acid added does not significantly alter the pH of the entire system. In a preferred embodiment, the acid added is phosphonic acid which acts as an antiscalant. Also included in the present invention is a method to inject oxidant precursors into a process water system through an oxidant generation station.

Abstract: A collet is designed for a tool having a cylindrical shank and a square drive at the rearward end of the cylindrical shank. The collet includes a collet body having a plurality of radially compressible collet segments. An axial bore is formed in the collet body for receiving the cylindrical shank of the tool. The tool is secured in the axial bore by collapsing the collet segments around the cylindrical shank of the tool. A grip-forming slot extends through a midsection of the collet body and communicates with the axial bore so as to receive the square drive of the tool when the tool is inserted into the axial bore. A pair of gripping surfaces are formed on respective collet segments on opposite sides of the grip-forming slot for gripping opposed surfaces of the square drive when the collet segments are radially collapsed to prevent radial movement of the tool.

Abstract: A battery system for supplying electric energy from a primary battery or a secondary battery to a load (L). This system includes a battery consisting of the primary battery or the secondary battery, an electric double layer capacitor (3) for storing electric energy from the battery, a limiting resistor (2) for limiting the electric energy supplied from the battery to the electric double layer capacitor (3), and a discharge controller (4) for controlling the electric double layer capacitor. The discharge controller (4) causes the electric double layer capacitor (3) to discharge the electric energy to the load intermittently in predetermined cycles while charging the electric double layer capacitor (3). A discharging time for discharging the electric energy from the electric double layer capacitor (3) to the load is shorter than a charging time for charging the electric double layer capacitor (3) with electric energy. At this time, a discharge current is greater than a charge current. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A metal support disk for an electrochemical cell seal exerts a resilient outward radial force against the seal to maintain seal integrity over a wide range of operating temperature and, at the same time, exerts an upward force against the bottom of the metal end cap terminal of the cell to assure electrical contact between the anode inside the cell and the terminal. The disk includes a central, circular platform connected to an outer, sealing edge sealing flange by an annular flexure means which permits radially inward and outward movement of the sealing edge when the end of the cell is radially crimped during the sealing process. The crimping also moves the central portion of the disk up which results in the upward force being exerted against the end terminal. The flexure means is a sequential series of three annular, curved fibs with the first and third curved downward and the second curved upward. A ring depending radially outward and at an upward angie from the first fib connects the first fib to the second fib and helps to prevent plastic deformation of the disk during sealing.

Abstract: A rotational indexing base curve deposition array for assembling contact lens base curves and front curves with a prescribed and programmable angular orientation to produce a contact lens having a selected axis placement therein, such as a toric axis for a toric contact lens. An array of front curve molds are arranged in a support pallet with a dosed amount of monomer mixture deposited into each of the front curve molds. An array of deposition tubes, positioned in a support plate and coupled to a vacuum source, is used to pick up and support an array of base curve molds. Each of the deposition tubes is then angularly rotated in to the support plate to a selected angularly indexed position therein. A common angular rotational drive is coupled to each of the deposition tubes in the array to angular index each of the deposition tubes to a precise angular position in the support plate. The common angular rotational drive is driven by a stepper motor which can be controlled in a programmable manner to change the selected angularly indexed position. The stepper motor drives moveable racks, which drive pinion gears around the deposition gears. The angularly indexed array of base curve molds is then assembled over the array of front curve molds to produce toric lenses having first and second optical surfaces which are precisely angularly indexed relative to each other.

Abstract: A method of encoding time-discrete audio signals comprises the steps of weighting the time-discrete audio signal by means of window functions overlapping each other so as to form blocks, the window functions producing blocks of a first length for signals varying weakly with time and blocks of a second length for signals varying strongly with time. A start window sequence is selected for the transition from windowing with blocks of the first length to windowing with blocks of the second length, whereas a stop window sequence is selected for the opposite transition. The start window sequence is selected from at least two different start window sequences having different lengths, whereas the stop window sequence is selected from at least two different stop window sequences having different lengths. A method of decoding blocks of encoded audio signals selects a suitable inverse transformation as well as a suitable synthesis window as a reaction to side information associated with each block.
