Abstract: A data transmission system for a vehicle includes a plurality of control systems installed on the vehicle, and a network bus connecting the plurality of control systems with each other for circulating a transmission right through the plurality of control systems to thereby perform transmission of a message between the plurality of control systems.  According to a first aspect, each of the control systems starts transmitting data when it is detected that the transmission right is not generated or lost from the system, and continues transmitting the data when no collision of data transmitted from the present control system with data transmitted from the rest of the plurality of control systems, or when by mediation for avoiding the collision is detected, it is determined to continue data transmission.  According to a second aspect, the maximum number of times of retransmission to be permitted is determined according to a type of failure in transmission identified, and the retransmission is performed so long as the number times of retransmission of the data does not exceed the maximum number of times of retransmission to be permitted.  According to a fourth aspect, the message comprises a first response field for receiving a first acknowledging response output from a control system having received the transmission right, and a second response field for receiving a second acknowledging response output from a control system having received data.

Title: In-situ oxidizing zone remediation system for contaminated groundwater
Inventor: CHEN YOUZHI
IPC: C02F1/72
Filed: 1994-08-08
Abstract: The invention of in-situ oxidizing zone remediation system for contaminated groundwater is a system that releases oxygen or oxidizing gases into a saturated zone of an aquifer (3) to form an oxidizing zone (5) cross the contaminated groundwater plume (4) to purify the groundwater at the location of the plume so as to limit further development of the plume. The system comprises a set of gas injectors (7) embedded in a horizontal well, an oxidizing gas source (10), and gas flow rate controlling (19) and monitoring (20) devices. The gas will be injected through the gas injectors into the groundwater carrying contaminants at the rate that is approximately equal to the rate of the gas dissolving in the groundwater. Such rate will eliminate the possibility of secondary contaminant. A set of auxiliary apparatuses is also designed for preliminary examination before the installation of the system and for determining the suitable injecting rate of the gas.

Patent CA-2136850-A1 (CA)
Title: Improvements relating to cleaning compositions
Inventor: INSTONE TERRY
IPC: C11D1/14
Filed: 1993-05-27
Abstract: 2136850 9325654 PCTABScor01 The invention provides a homogeneous, aqueous, cleaning composition which comprises surfactant and solvent, and is characterized in that it forms a solvent-water emulsion on evaporation of at least a portion of the solvent. In such systems the solvent system is selected such that it comprises: a first solvent component in an amount such that it is present at a level above the miscibility limit of that component with water, and, a second solvent component which is sufficiently volatile that, in use, it evaporates from the composition to leave a mixture of the first solvent component and water, said second solvent component being present at a level such that first solvent component is solubilised in the composition. By using the second solvent to assist in the solution of the first solvent it is possible to obtain compositions which are clear, stable, isotropic compositions. In use, the second, volatile solvent component evaporates from the overall composition and the remaining first solvent component and water phase-separate, thus forming an emulsion, whereby the cleaning action of the first solvent component is potentiated. The emulsion formed generally has a coarse dispersed phase. This yields the advantages of a stable non-emulsion product as regards storage, dosing and manufacture, employs a relatively low level of solvent and provides the cleaning benefits of a free-solvent system.
