Abstract: A method for manufacturing hosiery items, termed "top-to-top" method, and the related modified knitting and stitching machines. The method includes the following steps: knitting a first hosiery item (1) starting from a top (2) down to a toe (7); knitting at least one row of trim (8) at the end of the toe (7); knitting a second hosiery item (10) at the end of the row of trim (8) starting from a second toe (17) up to a second top (12); separating and stitching the first and second hosiery items (1, 10) initially joined by the trim row (8) by means of a specifically modified stitching machine. The stitching machine includes two independent stitching units (36, 37) which are fed by a common conveyor (31) which is provided with a cutter and with diverging traction means. Top-to-top knitting can be performed with appropriately modified mechanically-programmed machines or with electronically programmed machines. The advantage of the method is that it considerably increases productivity and almost completely eliminates the waste of excess thread that occurs with current operations for stitching the toes of individually knitted hosiery items.

Abstract: A noise reducing method and device for reducing the noise contained in the input speech signal. The speech signal collected by a microphone 11 is converted by an A/D converter 12 into a digital input signal x(n). A frame power calculating circuit 13 calculates a mean frame power rms for each frame of the digital input signal x(n). A suppression ratio calculating circuit 14 calculates different values of the noise suppression ratio depending on the magnitude of the mean frame power rms relative to pre-set threshold values. A level discrimination circuit 18 forms a changeover control signal depending on the noise level and transmits the changeover control signal to the suppression ratio calculating circuit 14 for switching control of the threshold value. The suppression ratio value from the suppression value calculating circuit 14 is transmitted via a smoothing circuit 15 to a noise-reducing circuit 16 and multiplied with the input signal x(n) for reducing the noise component. The effect of the noise-reducing operation is changed responsive to the noise level and the intensity of the noise-reducing operation is moderated in a portion of a low noise level zfor preventing deterioration in the sound quality.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for the recovery of an organic acid. The organic acid is generated from the manufacture of a cellulose ester. The first step of the process is to remove the organic acid from the manufacture of cellulose ester. The acid is in the form of a weak acid stream comprising of the organic acid and water. The weak acid stream is resolved, via a solvent extraction, to form an extractor overhead stream and raffinate stream. The raffinate stream comprises solvent, water, and alcohol. The alcohol is produced in the recovery process by hydrolysis of the solvent after the solvent extraction. The raffinate stream is resolved into a overhead stream and a bottom stream. The overhead stream comprises water, alcohol, and solvent. Excess organic acid is added to the overhead stream to form a feed stream. The feed stream is catalyzed, via ion exchange resins, whereby a portion of the alcohol is esterified to the solvent. The solvent, thus produced, is recycled into the recovery process.
