Abstract: Unit (1) for treatment of organic waste having a waste sorting means comprising a sieve (21) movable between a first position, where it allows the passage of only a waste liquid fraction, and A second position, where it allows the passage also of a waste solid fraction. The sieve (21) is operatively connected by a rod (20) to a control valve (30), arranged downstream of a grinding chamber (10), in order to synchronize its movements. The valve (30) has a diaphragm (31) having holes (32) and a dividing wall (33) parallel to it. In a first position of the sieve (21) the valve (30) has the pierced diaphragm (31) arranged at the base of the grinding chamber (10) and the dividing wall (33) faces the outlet (35). This way, in a first step of organic waste treatment, the waste liquid fraction can outflow up to a water drain, which is in hydraulic connection with the unit (1) by a duct (35). A second step of organic waste treatment provides the arrangement of the the sieve (21) in the second position in order to cause the solid fraction of the waste processed to reach the grinding chamber (10), where it is finely ground. In particular, in the grinding chamber knives (15) are arranged on the boundary of a rotating drum (11) that cooperate with a stationary knife (16) connected to the wall of the chamber (10) in order to provide a substantially "comb-shaped" structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to determination of a link cost employable in route determination and data forwarding in a multihop communication network (1). This link cost is adapted to the particular characteristics of wireless contention-based networks (1), in which both network nodes (10, 20) involved in node-to-node data forwarding block neighbor nodes (30, 40, 50) that have to defer medium access during the data forwarding. The link cost is determined based on the estimated total number of nodes (30, 40, 50) that are blocked if data is forwarded on a wireless link (12) from a node (10) to another node (20). The link cost may also be based on a per bit normalized expected transmit duration for the data forwarding in combination with said estimated number of nodes. Usage of the link cost in route determination minimizes the number of truly blocked nodes in the network (1) and increased the network capacity.
