Abstract: DADMAC containing polymers, both homopolymers and copolymers are used in effective coagulating amounts to treat cellulosic fibres recycled from coated broke recovery. The DADMAC containing polymers are either homopolymers or are preferably copolymers containing acrylamide. Recycle of coated broke can cause difficulties when the fibres are recycled to the paper manufacturing process because the coatings contain binders which cause what is referred to as "white pitch", the accumulation of which can cause holes in the paper, build-up of residues and sticky masses, and clogging of felts and the like in the manufacture of paper. The use of the DADMAC polymers eliminates this difficulty in making paper from recycled cellulose fibres obtained from coated broke recycle.

Title: Methods and apparatus employing permanent magnets for marking, locating, tracing and identifying hidden objects such as buried fiber optic cables
Inventor: RIPPINGALE JOHN B

Filed: 1990-02-07
Granted: 1996-01-30
Abstract: In order to locate, trace, and identify hidden elongated objects (12), such as buried fiber optic cables, the objects (12) are provided with elongated permanent magnet identifier devices having magnetic fields that may be detected at a distance from the objects. In one embodiment, the identifier device comprises an elongated strip (10) magnetized in the direction of its width and formed into a long-pitch helix, producing a characteristic "magnetic field signature" that enhances detection and identification of the object, as by a portable gradiometer (14) that is moved over the surface of the earth along a line generally parallel to the length of the object. This embodiment may provide a magnetic field that diminishes as the square of the distance from the identifier device (rath-er than the usual cube of the distance), thereby enabling detection at substantial distances. In a second embodiment distinctive magnetic field signatures are produced by arrays of spaced permanent magnets (M), the fields of which add and subtract to provide resultant magnetic fields with peaks and valleys along a line generally parallel to the length of the object.
