Patent EP-2583549-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HOSHINO AKIHIRO
IPC: E02B3/18
Filed: 2011-05-31
Abstract: Provided is a method for developing land through the workings of nature. An island (1) is covered with a sealing dome (3) larger than an aboveground part (1a) of the island such that a space (s1) is created between the island (1) and the sealing dome (3) and a lower edge (3a) of the sealing dome (3) is located in the sea, i.e., below the sea level (2). Subsequently, with a gap (s2) between the lower edge (3a) of the sealing dome (3) and a sea bottom (1b), a pile (4) secured to the lower edge (3a) of the sealing dome (3) with a bolt (not shown) is driven into the sea bottom (1b) to secure the sealing dome (3). Then, a pump (5) provided in the sealing dome (3) is actuated to reduce the air pressure of the sealing dome (3). According to the Pascal's law, this causes the seawater to be drawn into the sealing dome (3), allowing the sea level (2a) inside the sealing dome (3) to rise above the aboveground part (1a) of the island (1). With the island (1) left under this condition, coral (6) will naturally grow thereon.

Inventor: SONSTEGARD JILL NOREEN
IPC: C02F11/12
Filed: 2011-11-04
Abstract: Des eaux usées contenant du sélénium soluble sont traitées dans un bioréacteur. Les microorganismes contenus dans le réacteur réduisent le sélénium en sélénium élémentaire qui est insoluble. Le sélénium élémentaire est évacué du réacteur dans des boues excédentaires. Les boues sont traitées pour récupérer le sélénium. Dans un procédé, les boues sont lavées avec des produits chimiques, par exemple des tensioactifs, et agitées pour décoller les particules de sélénium des cellules. Les particules de sélénium sont ensuite séparées des cellules par un procédé de séparation physique, tel qu'une centrifugation ou une filtration différentielle. Dans un autre procédé, la boue est déshydratée ou séchée jusqu'à obtention d'une très haute teneur en solides. Les particules de sélénium sont dissoutes au moyen d'un agent d'oxydation dans des conditions de pH élevé. Une fraction constituée de solides est retirée de la suspension obtenue. La saumure de sélénium ainsi obtenue est ensuite raffinée davantage pour récupérer le sélénium.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises a receiver (101) which receives a first image. An image generator (103) then generates a second image by setting luminances of the second image in response to chrominance gradients of the first image. Specifically, the luminances may be determined as a monotonically increasing function of the chrominance gradients. The average of the luminance of the second image may be set to be no more than 10% of an average luminance of the first image. The approach may increase luminances for changing image areas higher than for flat image areas. The approach may allow an extreme power reduction while still providing relevant visual information. In particular, perceptually significant features may be emphasized.
