Title: Plate thickness measuring method using impulse hammer

Filed: 2002-12-25
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plate thickness measuring method using an impulse hammer by which the thickness of a plate can be measured more easily and efficiently.  <P>SOLUTION: In the plate thickness measuring method, the striking load F applied to a steel plate 1 with the impulse hammer 5 is measured by means of a load cell 11 provided in the hammer section 10 of the hammer 5. In addition, an accelerometer 13 attached to the hammer 5 detects the approaching speed (hammer speed) V of the hammer 5 to the steel plate 1. Then thickness of the steel plate 1 is found based on a restitution coefficient e when the steel plate 1 is struck with the hammer 5 by correlating the striking load F and hammer speed V with the restitution coefficient e. When this plate thickness measuring method is applied to the inspection of a gigantic object like a hull having many points of measurement, the required time, labor, and cost can be reduced, because the thickness of the steel plate 1 can be measured with high accuracy by only removing rust from the surface of the plate 1.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI

Filed: 2002-12-26
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dioxin-contaminated water purification method which enables the removal of contaminants by using common coagulation equipment and at the same time, separate and remove dioxins at a low cost.  <P>SOLUTION: In the dioxin-contaminated water purification method, a metallic coagulant and a radiation-crosslinked body of polyamino acid or a polyamino acid salt are added to dioxin-contaminated water to coagulate and precipitate the dioxins, thereby reducing the dioxin concentration in the contaminated water. As the dioxins can be coagulated and precipitated only by making the metallic coagulant and the radiation-crosslinked body coexist in the contaminated water, dioxin removal treatment can be carried out by the common coagulation equipment without special apparatus or equipment, which realizes low-cost dioxin treatment. As COD components, BOD components, and SS components present in the contaminated water can be coagulated and precipitated by the metallic coagulant and the radiation-crosslinked body, the dioxin removal and normal water purification treatment can be performed at the same time.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
