Patent CA-2543695-A1 (CA)
Title: Process and apparatus for separating oil and oil based products from aqueous fluids
Inventor: KNIGHT KENNETH G
IPC: B01D17/022
Filed: 2006-04-20
Abstract: The invention provides a process and apparatus for separating mechanically and chemically emulsified oils and oil based products from aqueous fluids by passing the solution through a series of chambers consisting of a gravity separation chamber, a conditioning unit containing fine coalescing media, and a final chamber containing coarse coalescing media. Free product separates in the gravity chamber based on density differences between the fluids, while the conditioning unit coalesces the emulsified oil particles and releases them downstream as larger droplets. These droplets, and remaining emulsions, attach to coalescing media in the final chamber where they grow large enough to detach and separate as free product.

Patent CA-2554580-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FUKUI TOSHIO
IPC: G06N5/00
Filed: 2005-01-21
Abstract: It is possible to surely solve an object problem with a small calculation time without describing an algorithm as a data processing procedure on a computer.  The solving means is as follows. When a constraint condition associated with the object problem and a initial value of a variable or a fluctuation value used for the constraint condition are set by variable value setting means (2), constraint condition extraction means (3) extracts a constraint condition associated with the variable; constraint condition solution calculation means (4) successively calculates a solution for the respective constraint conditions; and by using the calculated solution as a new variable, variable value resetting means (5) repeats calculation to obtain a solution of each constraint condition. Thus, the process for calculating the solution is clear and what is necessary is to solve each constraint condition significantly simplified. Accordingly, it is possible to surely reach the final solution and significantly increase the operation speed.

Title: Device for maintaining wing balance on a multi-section header
Inventor: TALBOT FRANCOIS R
IPC: A01D41/06
Filed: 2006-09-22
Abstract: A crop harvesting header includes a center portion mounted on two spring arms and two separate wings pivotally connected to the center portion.  The wings are connected to the center portion by interconnecting linkages which transfer weight from the wings to the spring arms each including a balance beam arranged to balance the lifting force from the spring arm with the downward forces from the center portion and wing such that the downward force on a skid plate of each portion on the ground varies automatically as the tot2i downward force is varied. The balance beams apply force to the linkages by a compression member to reduce forces. The movement caused by floating of the header and the change of angle of the header are compensated at the balance beam to ensure that the force to the wings is reduced as the requirement caused by changes in geometry reduces.

Title: Method for nucleic acid sequencing in the absence of divalent metal ion
Inventor: NELSON JOHN R
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2005-06-09
Abstract: This invention provides methods for nucleic acid analysis. A closed complex of nucleic acid template, nucleotide and polymerase can be formed during polymerase reaction, absent divalent metal ion. This is used to trap the labeled nucleotide complementary to the next template nucleotide in the closed complex. Detection of the label allows determination of the identity of this next correct nucleotide. Identification can be either in place, as part of the complex, or as the dye is eluted from the complex when the reaction cycle is completed by the addition of divalent metal ion. In this way, sequential nucleotides of a DNA can be identified, effectively determining the DNA sequence. This method can be applied to nucleic acid single molecules or to collections of identical or nearly identical sequence such as PCR products or clones. Multiple templates can be sequenced in parallel, particularly if they are immobilized on a solid support.

Title: Robust erasure detection and erasure-rate-based closed loop power control
Inventor: AVNEESH AGRAWAL
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2005-06-07
Abstract: Techniques for performing erasure detection and power control for a transmission without error detection coding are described. For erasure detection, a transmitter transmits codewords via a wireless channel. A  receiver computes a metric for each received codeword, compares the computed metric against an erasure threshold, and declares the received codeword to be "erased" or "non-erased". The receiver dynamically adjusts the erasure threshold based on received known codewords to achieve a target level of performance. For power control, an inner loop adjusts the transmit power to maintain a received signal quality (SNR) at a target SNR. An outer loop adjusts the target SNR based on the status of received codewords (erased or non-erased) to achieve a target erasure rate. A third loop adjusts the erasure threshold based on the status of received known codewords ("good", "bad", or erased) to achieve a target conditional error rate.
