Filed: 1995-02-27
Granted: 1999-04-01
Abstract: A method of treating primed seeds which results in a prolongation of shelf life compared to optionally dried conventionally primed seeds of the same species having substantially the same moisture content (MC), wherein the primed seeds are subjected to a water stress, a heat treatment or a combination thereof and are subsequently-where desired- dried back to a desired MC and seeds obtainable by such a method.

Title: A connection establishment method, a subscriber terminal unit and a radio system
Inventor: HAKKINEN HANNU
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 1997-02-04
Granted: 2000-05-04
Abstract: The method involves a radio system which receives an RF analogous signal at RF sections, from an antenna (10), for IF transfer and filtering. This is then input to an A/D converter and then a demodulator for restoring a broadband, spread-coded pseudo-noise signal to a narrowband data signal using an incoherent demodulator. An orthogonal demodulator determines the bits of the received data signal. A signal noise estimate is formed (14) and a selector, selects the base station transceiver unit candidates with the best connections for a future connection. The channel decoder (16) decodes a convolution-coded signal based on a Viterbi algorithm and a source decoder (17) decodes a residually excited linear predictive signal from the channel decoder for a loudspeaker.

Title: Flue gas scrubbing and waste heat recovery system
Inventor: HINKE THOMAS V
IPC: B01D53/77
Filed: 1996-05-29
Granted: 1998-09-24
Abstract: A system and method for the reduction of NOx in a flue gas are disclosed. A P4 in water liquid/liquid emulsion is injected into a flue gas having a temperature of about 180 DEG  C. to about 280 DEG  C. to induce phosphorus-accelerated oxidation of the NO in the flue gas. NO2 and phosphorus oxides are subsequently removed from the flue gas stream at a location sufficiently downstream of the injection site that the oxidation of NO in the flue gas is substantially complete prior to the removal of NO2. This significantly improves the NOx recovery rate of the present system and method over those of the prior art. The system can be retrofitted to the waste gas stream of any stationary combustion source regardless of the fuel burned. The system is advantageously used in connection with a wet scrubber for the removal of NO2 and other water soluble flue gas components. Injection of the emulsion results in the creation of ozone by means of the controlled oxidation of white phosphorus. The ozone reacts with nitrogen oxide (NO), which generally accounts for 90% of flue gas NOx, to produce nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The reaction products (NO2 and the P4O10,) can be removed from the flue gas together with SO2 and particulates in the wet scrubber wherein they are efficiently transferred from the gaseous phase to the buffered scrubbing liquid. In the scrubber, the temperature gradient is preferably set through the dew point, so that it recovers both latent as well as sensible heat energy from the flue gas which energy can be sold to commercial or residential consumers to recover at least a part of the capital costs (purchase and operation) associated with the system.
