Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de radiocommunications affectant des unités mobiles à n'importe quelle pluralité de centraux de commutation radiomobile de manière à égaliser le chargement. Ce système comprend la pluralité de centraux de commutation mobile et un système de station de base incluant une pluralité de contrôleurs de stations de base dont chacun effectue le couplage d'une pluralité de stations de base. Dans un mode de réalisation particulier du système, un commutateur de distribution couple le système de station de base à une pluralité de centraux de commutation mobile et affecte les unités mobiles. Dans un exemple de fonctionnement, après fixation d'une unité mobile, le commutateur de distribution détermine le chargement de chacun desdits centraux. Puis, sur la base du chargement, le commutateur affecte l'unité mobile à l'un des centraux, le central de commutation mobile de desserte. Pendant les appels suivants, le commutateur établit une voie transparente entre un contrôleur de station de base desservant l'appel et le central de commutation mobile de desserte. Ainsi, une fois le centre de commutation mobile déterminé, le fonctionnement devient transparent pour le contrôleur de la station de base de desserte et pour le central de commutation mobile de desserte. Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, chacun des contrôleurs de station de base effectue un couplage avec chacun des centraux de commutation mobile via un réseau. Dans ce cas de figure, chacun des contrôleurs de stations de base et chacun des centraux de commutation mobile comprend un équipement supplémentaire réalisant au moins une partie des opérations du commutateur de distribution. Le réseau peut être différent d'une structure de données classique basée sur un système de radiocommunications.

Abstract: Chemical reduction metal plating solution regeneration uses a weakly basic anion exchanger (T1) for hypophosphite ion recycle to the cathodic chamber (3) of a multi-chamber electrodialysis cell. An acid mixture, formed in the second chamber (6) by entry of protons from the anodic chamber (1), is supplied to a hypophosphite-loaded weakly basic anion exchanger with its outlet connected to the cathodic chamber. A chemical reduction metal plating solution, containing hypophosphite and ortho phosphite, is regenerated in a multi-chamber electrodialysis cell having two chambers separated from one another by an anion exchange membrane and which are located between a dilute acid-containing anodic chamber and a cathodic chamber, the first chamber being separated from the cathode chamber by an anion exchange membrane and the second chamber being separated from the anodic chamber by a cation exchange membrane. The solution is delivered to the first chamber for hypophosphite and orthophosphite ion transport from the solution to the second chamber and simultaneous hypophosphite ion transport from the cathodic chamber into the solution, the resulting regenerated solution being discharged for reuse.  Preferred Features: Part of the solution, leaving the weakly basic anion exchanger (T1), may be passed over a plating metal ion-loaded, weakly acidic anion exchanger within the first chamber (5) of the cell (EZ). A regeneration circuit is formed by a connection (P1) between the cathodic chamber (3) and the second chamber (6). A further chamber may be provided between the anodic chamber (1) and the second chamber and separated from the second chamber by a cation exchange membrane, this further chamber receiving plating metal ions from the anodic chamber and being supplied with part or all of the process solution (PL) which is then transferred to the first chamber. Plating metal additions are made to the first chamber or to the anodic chamber. The anode (2) may be an insoluble anode, preferably of steel or platinized expanded titanium, or a soluble anode of the plating metal.

Abstract: Trans-xanthophyll ester concentrates having a trans-xanthophyll ester content of at least four times greater and preferably at least nine times greater than the cis-xanthophyll ester content are obtained. Xanthophyll ester concentrates having a total xanthophyll ester content of at least 40 wt. % and preferably greater than about 55 wt. % are also obtained. A method of obtaining a trans-xanthophyll ester concentrate of high purity includes contacting plant material containing xanthophyll esters with a hydrocarbon solvent for a time sufficient to extract xanthophyll esters from the plant material, separating the hydrocarbon solvent and extract dissolved therein from the remaining plant material, evaporating the hydrocarbon solvent from the dissolved extract to obtain a crude xanthophyll ester concentrate, admixing the crude xanthophyll ester concentrate with an alcohol at approximately ambient temperature to dissolve non-xanthophyll impurities and cis-xanthophyll esters from the concentrate and removing the alcohol containing impurities and cis-xanthophyll esters from the crude trans-xanthophyll concentrate to obtain a purified trans-xanthophyll ester concentrate. By using only the corollas of marigold flowers, lutein ester concentrates of high purity are obtained with pesticide residues absent from the concentrate at parts per billion detection levels.
