Abstract: A system and methods for rapid deployment of World Wide Web applications on the Internet. A preferred method provides a template, accessible to both client and server, for constructing Web source text. The source text includes HTML tag extensions for implementing dynamic Web environment. The tag extensions are nested and grouped to form scripts to perform specific tasks, such as state construction and on-line data arrangement. Each tag extension or script is expanded and replaced with data value to be embedded within a traditional HTML tag. A processor is employed to process templates and execute tag extensions therein, and produces pages in pure HTML form for displaying by any Web browser.

Abstract: An arrangement for connecting tubular articles, particularly piles and pile sleeves, in which a first tube (4) fits into a second tube (2), the first tube having a first circumferential recess (10) and a second circumferential recess (12), and the second tube has a first set of latches (8) and a second set of latches (8') which are resiliently biased to engage in the first and second recesses respectively; when the latches and recesses are mutually engaged, axial movement is prevented by abutments in the recesses and the latches by one set of latches in one direction and the other set of latches in the opposite axial direction. The invention is such that latching engagement is only possible when the first set of latches is opposite the first recess and the second set opposite the second recess. This ensures positive connection and the use of preferred elements (30) which extend from one set of latches through the outer casing of the second tube; means can be provided to readily unlatch the tubes. In another arrangement, a similar unlatching arrangement is used, comprising a set of latches (118) which locate in a recess (117') bounded by a cirmcumferential abutment surface (117); the latches (118) are retracted by bolts (123) which extend to the outside of tube (110).

The biofiltering system comprises a bed of peat overlying the effluent absorption area, the peat defining a biofiltering medium having a predetermined biofiltering capacity, and a fluid flow regulating unit for allowing the wastewater effluent to be treated to flow at a flow rate greater than the biofiltering capacity of the peat, while not exceeding a predetermined threshold value. The system further includes a predetermined number of spaced-apart, elongated distribution conduits arranged over the bed of peat and in fluid flow communication with the flow regulating unit, each distribution conduit having a plurality of discharge orifices spaced longitudinally therealong, for distributing the wastewater effluent through the bed of peat in a manner such that wastewater discharged from the distribution conduits through the orifices flows through the bed of peat at a flow rate no greater than the biofiltering capacity of the peat. The biofiltering system according to the invention enables one to efficiently treat large quantities of incoming wastewater irrespective of the flow rate thereof.

Title: Method for custom corneal corrections
Inventor: JUHASZ TIBOR
IPC: A61F9/01
Filed: 2000-10-19
Granted: 2009-03-03
Abstract: A method for customizing corneal corrections includes superposing an imaginary reference field (grid) on the anterior surface of the cornea of an eye to divide the corneal surface into reference areas. Also, a diagnostically determined refractive power map for the cornea is created. An incising laser beam is then directed through an individual reference area to a focal spot. Next, movement of the focal spot along the laser beam path is selectively accomplished to photoalter a predetermined volume of stromal tissue. Subsequently, based on the refractive power map, the predetermined volume of stromal tissue that is to be photoaltered is identified for each specific reference area. Accordingly, the steps of directing the beam and moving the focal spot are then repeated using selected reference areas until the required corneal correction is achieved.

Abstract: Spent photographic effluent containing iron ions flows in a carrier liquid through at least one venturi passage to a drain; iron ions in the effluent precipitate as iron oxides. A flushing flow of flushing liquid flushes iron oxide deposits from surfaces of the venturi passage exposed to the effluent during interruptions of effluent flow through the venturi passage. The flushing flow may also be employed to flush deposits of iron oxides from exposed surfaces adjacent conduits through which the effluent flows. In this way, clogging or blockage of passages, especially the narrow venturi passage is avoided, so that effluent disposed can proceed on a continuous basis, avoiding flooding, and shut down for cleaning.

Title: A glycolysis process for recycling of post-consumer pet
Inventor: MURDOCH WILLIAM S JR
IPC: B29B17/00
Filed: 2000-02-04
Granted: 2008-03-25
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for depolymerizing and purifying contaminated post-consumer polyester. In the process, depolymerization is effected by way of glycolysis in an agitated reactor vessel. The process includes the steps of contacting a contaminated polyester with an amount of a glycol to provide a molar ratio of greater than about 1 to about 5 total glycol units to total dicarboxylic acid units at a temperature between about 150 to about 300 °C and an absolute pressure of about 0.5 to about 3 bars. This reaction is conducted for a time sufficient to produce, in the reactor, an upper layer having a relatively low density contaminant floating on top of a lower layer which includes a relatively high density depolymerized oligomer of the polyester, and separating the upper layer from the lower layer. The layers may be separated by removing the upper layer from the reactor in a first stream and removing said lower layer from the reactor in a second stream.
