Patent CA-2324222-C (CA)
Title: Procede de bioraffinage de dechets organiques pour la production de produits nutritionnels steriles et denatures
Inventor: SCHMIDT ERICK
IPC: A23K10/32
Filed: 1999-03-18
Granted: 2004-07-20
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de traitement de déchets organiques infectieux tels que des boues déshydratées d'eaux usées, des déchets organiques mélangés et des déchets animaux. Le procédé comprend le mélange des déchets organiques avec un matériau fibreux organique finement haché afin de constituer un mélange réactionnel. On peut éventuellement ajouter un agent oxydant. Le mélange réactionnel est chauffé dans un réacteur hyperbare à une pression et à une température élevées, pendant une durée suffisante pour générer de la vapeur saturée et obtenir un produit pratiquement dénaturé dont les agents pathogènes sont inactivés. Le produit dénaturé est déshydraté afin d'obtenir un produit solide à écoulement fluide, qui peut trouver des applications potentielles en agriculture, dans l'industrie ou dans le commerce. Une élimination des mauvaises odeurs permet d'éviter leur rejet dans l'atmosphère.

Title: Backscatter instrument for monitoring particulate levels in a gas stream
Inventor: ROSE THOMAS H
IPC: G01N15/00
Filed: 1999-06-11
Granted: 2007-07-31
Abstract: An automatic setup backscatter particulate monitor includes a small source (38) of narrow beam radiant energy directed into a gas stream containing particulates. A lens (34) that is mounted behind the radiant energy source (38) collects the energy reflected back from the particulates and concentrates it on a photodetector (48). The beam is directed into the duct at an angle greater than twice the beam spread, minimizing reflection off opposing wall surfaces. Internal radiant energy sources are periodically directed to the detector to verify system integrity. Backscattered energy is corrected for energy reflected from the opposite stack wall and for ambient energy.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil de conditionnement thermique amélioré, utilisé pour traiter thermiquement un patient. Plus particulièrement, cette invention concerne un appareil (500) gonflable destiné à baigner un patient dans un milieu thermiquement conditionné. Un tel appareil thérapeutique est utile pour traiter médicalement un patient souffrant d'hypothermie ou d'hyperthermie, ou pour maintenir la température du corps d'un patient subissant une intervention chirurgicale. L'appareil (500) de conditionnement thermique de cette invention comprend des première et seconde pluralités d'orifices (130), la première pluralité d'orifices étant plus petite que la seconde. Une partie (150) d'admission recevant le milieu de conditionnement thermique se trouve plus près de la première pluralité d'orifices que de la seconde pluralité d'orifices. L'utilisation combinée d'orifices plus petits à proximité immédiate de la partie d'admission (150), et d'orifices plus grands dans la zone distale de la partie (150) d'admission, a tendance à réduire au minimum les gradients thermiques pouvant se produire. En outre, cette invention concerne un appareil (500) de conditionnement thermique comprenant une partie (170) couverture formée à partir des première et seconde couches de matériaux composant l'appareil de conditionnement thermique.

Inventor: SCHREUDER JAMES D
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2003-11-05
Granted: 2008-07-15
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the measurement of service levels provided by a communication network, including an Internet protocol communication network. In accordance with the present invention, test packets are sent from a first edge muter across the communication network to a second edge muter. The time required for the test packets to be transmitted across the communication network is then determined, and that time compared to the time specified by the governing service level agreement. A failure of the communication network to deliver test packets as guaranteed may be used as an indication that the service level agreement has been violated. Packet loss and packet fitter may also be measured and compared to levels guaranteed by the service level agreement. The present invention may be used to determine whether the delivery of data packets using requests for expedited service levels is necessary or desirable.
