Title: Procede et systeme de traitement de l'eau et des eaux usees
Inventor: TIMPANY PETER L
IPC: C02F3/00
Filed: 1994-09-30
Abstract: Ce procédé et ce système de traitement des eaux usées à niveau pratiquement constant présentant les avantages sans les inconvénients des procédés à réacteur discontinu et à boue activée permettent le traitement efficace des eaux usées. Dans le cas présent, l'eau usée s'écoule en continu dans un sens à travers une pluralité de cellules de traitement raccordées hydrauliquement en série. Après avoir subi un traitement biologique dans au moins une des cellules, l'eau usée est décantée dans au moins une des dernières cellules de traitement et de décharge immédiatement avant d'être déchargée du système. Dans les phases suivantes, l'eau usée continue à être envoyée dans le système au même endroit alors que la décharge de la dernière cellule est fermée temporairement. Le dispositif d'aération et de mélange est mis en marche de manière à remettre en suspension les solides dans la liqueur mixte mélangée décantée et à assurer un traitement supplémentaire, une pompe de transfert prévue dans ce dispositif étant activée de manière à transférer les solides en suspension dans la liqueur mixte et comélanger partiellement l'eau traitée dans une cellule de traitement située en amont. Une fois la phase de transfert achevée, le dispositif d'aération et de mélange est arrêté de manière à permettre, une nouvelle fois, la décantation des solides biologiques avant que l'eau usée soit déchargée en continu. Les solides en suspension dans la liqueur mixte s'écoulent dans le même sens général que l'eau usée mais sont toujours partiellement renvoyés dans une cellule de traitement en amont, décantés et séparés de l'eau usée avant que cette dernière soit déchargée de la dernière cellule. Dans les modes préférés de réalisation, la décharge est continue et le système fonctionne à niveau constant grâce à l'utilisation alternée de deux cellules de décharge et le traitement des contaminants solubles et particulaires ainsi que l'extraction de l'azote et du phosphore.

The steady-state temperature facility (201) is realized by storing the engine speeds and the engine loads obtained experimentally in the steady state operation of the engine in the form of a two-dimensional data map. A unit (16) for correcting the estimated temperature of the catalyst in the transient state is provided for correcting the catalyst temperature determined by the steady-state catalyst temperature estimating unit to thereby ensure correct estimation of the catalyst temperature even in the course of operation of the motor vehicle. In the transient temperature estimating unit, non-linear characteristics are each described by combining a plurality of linear characteristics. A unit for estimating the temperature of the catalyst on the basis of the value determined by the steady-state temperature estimating unit and the transient-state temperature estimating unit is provided to decide deterioration of the catalyst (2). Diagnosing method and apparatus capable of diagnosing deterioration of the catalyst with a high reliability are realized.

IPC: C02F1/00
Filed: 1995-03-07
Abstract: An improved water quality monitor is provided for use in a water purification system of the type having a reverse osmosis unit for producing relatively pure water from a tap water supply. The reverse osmosis unit supplies produced purified water to a reservoir for storage until dispensing, as by opening a faucet valve. An inlet shut-off valve closes to prevent tap water inflow to the reverse osmosis unit when the reservoir reaches a substantially filled condition. The water quality monitor includes electrodes in contact with the tap water and the produced purified water to obtain comparative conductivity readings which represent the performance level of the reverse osmosis unit in removing impurities from the tap water inflow. The monitor includes a test circuit responsive to movement of the inlet shut-off valve to take a conductivity reading at a point in time substantially after the shut-off valve opens to resume tap water inflow to the reverse osmosis unit, and substantially prior to shut-off valve closure when the reservoir reaches the filled condition. This conductivity reading is stored in memory for subsequent periodic display, for example, each time the faucet valve is opened, by energization of one or more indicator lights.

Abstract: A lipid emulsion which comprises (A) an oil component, (B) an emulsifying agent containing yolk lecithin and/or soybean lecithin, and (C) water, wherein the lipid emulsion further comprises citric acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one member selected from the group consisting of methionine, phenylalanine, serine, histidine and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, provided that it does not simultaneously contain methionine and phenylalanine. The addition of citric acid and histidine, methionine, phenylalanine and/or serine to a lipid emulsion containing natural lecithin as an emulsifying agent permits the prevention of change of color and formation of oil drops associated with the conventional natural lecithin-containing lipid emulsion due to the synergistic effect of the foregoing additives. The drug-containing lipid emulsion is also excellent in storage stability and thus the foregoing lipid emulsion can be applied to drugs such as injections, eye drops, nasal drops, lotions or liniments, inhalants and drugs for oral administration or cosmetics such as humectants.
