Title: Activated carbon and production thereof
Inventor: KOBATA TAKEJI
IPC: C01B32/336
Filed: 1994-04-08
Abstract: The process of producing activated carbon includes steps of: combusting scrap tires containing metal wire at 400°C to 900°C under the presence of oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor; 
reheating the generated combustible gases up to 800°C to 900°C by adding a further fuel; causing the exhaust gas to heat-exchange with a water pipe boiler so that the temperature of the exhaust gas decreases to between 180°C and 250°C; 
and introducing the exhaust having a temperature of 180°C to 250°C into an electric dust collector so as to collect activated carbon. The particle size of the thus obtained motivated carbon is distributed substantially in a range of 90 to 110 mesh and the CEC (cation exchange capacity) of the activated carbon falls within 30 to 40. 
     The apparatus for producing it comprises an ash collecting room, the walls of which are constructed of a castable structure, a dry type dust collector of the inertial separation type (19) connected to an exhaust gas tube disposed in the rear portion of the furnace tubes inside the upper water chamber, an air blower connected to the lower combustion chamber and through a valve means with a tubular body for supplying water spray, and an electric dust collector between the exhaust gas tube and a chimney.

IPC: G01D5/16
Filed: 1994-06-07
Abstract: The position sensor according to the invention exhibits a sensor (3), the output signal (Sd) of which is dependent on the distance (d) between a measurement division (1) and a scanning unit (2). So that the distance-dependent measurement signal (Sd) is independent of temperature changes, the sensor (3) consists of a voltage divider circuit with an active branch (4) and a supplementary branch (5). In the active branch (4), magnetoresistive elements (41) are arranged which scan the measurement division (1). In the supplementary branch (5), resistive elements (51) are arranged which have the same temperature characteristics as the magneto-resistive elements (41) of the active branch (4) but have no sensitivity to magnetic fields. The voltage across the active branch (4) is the distance-dependent measurement signal (Sd) by means of which the amplitude of the position-dependent scanning signals (S1, S2) of the measurement division (1) can be regulated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for depositing a conductive metal onto a dielectric substrate is provided. The method includes obtaining a metal sheet having a roughened surface that has the following parameters: 
R a  = 1.25 - 2.0 µm (0.05 - 0.08 mil), 
R max  = 5.0 - 13.75 µm (0.20 - 0.55 mil), 
S m  = 25 - 75 µm (1.00 - 3.00 mil), 
R p  = 5 - 8.75 µm (0.20 - 0.35 mil), and 
surface area = 562.5 - 781.25 µm² (0.90 - 1.20 square mils) wherein Ra is the average roughness and the arithmetic mean of the departures from horizontal mean line profile; R max  is the maximum peak-to-valley height; 
S m  is the mean spacing between high spots at the mean line; R p  is the maximum profile height from the mean line; 
and surface area is the area under the surface profile from each measurement using a Talysurf S-120 profilometer. 
The sheet is laminated to the dielectric substrate surface by pressing the roughened surface of the metal sheet against the surface of the substrate and then removed from the substrate. The substrate surface is seeded to render it active for electroless plating thereon; and then a metal from an electroless plating bath is plated thereon. In another method, the dielectric substrate is seeded to render it active for electroless plating thereon. A metal is then plated thereon from an electroless plating bath. The plated metal is subjected to temperature of at least about 100°C for a time sufficient to increase the adhesion of the metal to the substrate.

Abstract: A capacitive sensor circuit comprises: a sensor electrode (16) forming a first plate of a sensing capacitor (14) relative to a reference terminal (10), a first (2) and a second (26) inverting Schmitt trigger having the same threshold voltages. A feedback resistor (8) provides feedback from the output (6) to the input (4) of the first trigger (2), which together with the sensing capacitor (14) forms an oscillator whose frequency depends on the magnitude of the sensing capacitor (14). The input (24) of the second trigger (26) is connected to the output of the first trigger (2)  via  a series resistor (22) and to the reference terminal (10)  via  a reference capacitor (30). The resistance values of the feedback resistor (8) and the series resistor (22) are equal. A d.c. signal will appear on the output (32) of the second trigger if the capacitance of the sensing capacitor (14) is smaller than the capacitance of the reference capacitor (30) and an a.c. signal in the opposite case.
