Abstract: A process for treating effluent such as untreated biological effluent includes a primary clarifier (1) where sludge solids are settled out from a liquid sludge fraction. The sludge solids pass to a digester (2) where the sludge solids undergo anaerobic digestion to produce digested sludge and biogas. The digested sludge is dewatered and the liquid sludge fraction and the liquid component of the dewatered digested sludge is passed to an activated sludge tank (6). The resulting activated sludge solids are then concentrated by settlement, dewatered, and flocculated under alkaline and acidic conditions. The resultant acidic activated sludge solids are neutralized before and passed to a mixing and drying apparatus (5) where the solids are mixed with the digested sludge and dried using the bio-gas as a fuel. <IMAGE>

Title: Fuel system and constant gas pressure governor for a single-cylinder, four-stroke cycle engine.
Inventor: LAMBERT JOHN E
IPC: F02M21/02
Filed: 1993-06-24
Abstract: A fuel system for a single-cylinder internal combustion gas engine comprising a constant gas pressure governor that is situated in a gas supply line extending to the throat of a venturi carburetor, the gas pressure governor including a diaphragm-operated gas valve that responds to changes in static pressure on the upstream side of the venturi of the carburetor, the governor being adapted to compensate for changes in venturi throat pressure due to the opening and the closing of the intake valve for the single-cylinder engine, whereby the governor tends to maintain a uniform air/fuel ratio throughout a large engine speed range.

Abstract: Un dispositif de traitement d'eau possède un réservoir contenant un lit en résine à travers lequel l'eau s'écoule. Le dispositif comporte un ensemble de régulation mesurant occasionnellement la conductivité du lit en résine au niveau de deux emplacements éloignés, afin de produire une première et une deuxième mesure de conductivité. On calcule ensuite le rapport des deux mesures de conductivité. On utilise la valeur du rapport actuel, avec les valeurs de rapport minimum et maximum obtenues depuis la régénération précédente du lit en résine, pour calculer le déplacement d'un front d'épuisement à travers le lit en résine. On détermine également une probabilité d'épuisement et, quand, cette probabilité dépasse une valeur donnée, on déclenche la régénération du lit en résine. On utilise les mesures de conductivité pour déterminer si le lit en résine a perdu de son efficacité et, dans ce cas, un signal d'avertissement est envoyé à l'utilisateur. Pendant la régénération, on contrôle la conductivité au niveau d'un des emplacements du lit en résine, afin de détecter l'éventuelle pénétration d'un régénérant dans le réservoir; dans le cas contraire, un autre signal d'avertissement est envoyé à l'utilisateur.

Title: Composition containing body activated fragrance for contacting the skin and method of use
Inventor: SUFFIS ROBERT
IPC: A61K8/37
Filed: 1993-09-22
Abstract: Described is a fragrancing composition having fragrancing components that are not activated until, e.g., application to the skin of a human. The composition is alkaline or (if anhydrous) capable of producing an alkaline pH when in contact with water, prior to application, and includes (1) a vehicle such that when the composition is in contact with water, prior to application, the composition is at an alkaline pH; and (2) at least one potential fragrance that is at least one compound having little or no odor in the alkaline composition but which, e.g., is hydrolyzed in a lower pH environment to produce compounds having a relatively strong aroma. Upon application of the alkaline composition to the skin surface, the strong buffering capacity of the skin (the surface of which has a normal pH of 5.5-7.0) neutralizes alkalinity of the composition (lowers pH) so as to restore normal skin surface pH; the potential fragrance is then hydrolyzed at the lower pH to release the compound having relatively strong aroma. The potential fragrance can be incorporated as a component of a transparent (clear) deodorant stick composition for application to human axillary regions, the fragrance being released after application to the body.

IPC: G02B6/02
Filed: 1993-10-05
Abstract: A waveguide including a folded, coated reflector highly reflective of radiation having two different wavelengths over a wide range of incidence angles, including grazing incidence angles. The waveguide can be employed for guiding laser radiation useful for medical or other applications, such as a combined HeNe and CO2 laser beam. In some embodiments, the invention is a hollow waveguide formed by folding a flat, coated substrate into a polygonal shape. Because the coated substrate is folded, rather than rolled into a cylindrical tube, the bending stress on the coating is concentrated at the corners of the polygonal waveguide rather than distributed over the waveguide's entire surface. Although the coating may crack at the corners of the waveguide's polygonal cross-section, the flat surfaces between the waveguide edges will be intact, and the cracks in the corners will have an insignificant effect on waveguide performance.

Title: Tampon de sortie programmable selon la charge
Inventor: PIERCE KERRY M
IPC: H03K17/16
Filed: 1993-10-19
Abstract: Cette invention a pour but de réduire les sauts de tension se produisant dans les tensions d'amenée de courant (VCC) ou de mise à la terre (VSS) d'une puce de circuit intégré en mettant à la fois sous tension et hors tension graduellement les étages de sortie (407b), pour qu'il n'y ait aucune discontinuité brusque dans le flux de courant se dirigeant vers un dispositif externe (pastille de contact). Un flux de courant plus grand apparaît au milieu d'une période de transition. La mise hors tension graduelle à la fin d'une transition est obtenue par l'amenée de la tension en retour du signal de sortie (408) vers un dispositif (501) qui commande l'étage de sortie (407b). Au fur et à mesure que la tension de sortie approche de sa valeur finale, l'étage de sortie (407b) se met hors tension graduellement, empêchant ainsi l'apparition d'une transitoire brusque dans la tension d'amenée de courant (VCC) ou de mise à la terre (VSS) de la puce de circuit intégré.

Abstract: An aircraft subsystem provides the aircraft with all its electrical and conditioned air requirements without requiring the extraction of either shaft power and/or pressurized air from the aircraft's main engines. At the core of this subsystem are two rotating assemblies journaled on non-oil lubricated bearings to a housing. One assembly includes a cooling turbine (28), a starter/generator (30), a core compressor (32), and a high pressure stage (34) of a two stage axial turbine, all mounted on a single shaft (22). A combustor (36) is disposed between the core compressor and the turbine. The other assembly is comprised of a the low pressure stage (38) of the axial turbine coupled to a load compressor (40) via a second shaft (42). The high pressure turbine stage and cooling turbine are sized to drive the core compressor and starter/generator which provides all the aircraft's electrical needs both on the ground and inflight. The low pressure turbine stage drives the load compressor, which produces pressurized air that is conditioned through heat exchange components and then expanded and cooled across the cooling turbine before being delivered to the aircraft cabin.

Ces facteurs comprennent la nature et la forme physique du catalyseur, l'abaissement de l'humidité dans le courant gazeux entrant, le réchauffage du courant gazeux entrant et du réacteur (24), et l'accroîssement du temps de séjour des réactifs dans le réacteur (24) au-delà de ce qui est nécessaire pour dégrader les polluants initiaux.
