Patent AU-662207-B2 (AU)
Title: Effluent treatment process
Inventor: GRANT ROY ARTHUR
IPC: C02F11/04
Filed: 1993-02-01
Granted: 1995-08-24
Abstract: A process for treating effluent such as untreated biological effluent includes a primary clarifier (1) where sludge solids are settled out from a liquid sludge fraction. The sludge solids pass to a digester (2) where the sludge solids undergo anaerobic digestion to produce digested sludge and biogas. The digested sludge is dewatered and the liquid sludge fraction and the liquid component of the dewatered digested sludge is passed to an activated sludge tank (6). The resulting activated sludge solids are then concentrated by settlement, dewatered, and flocculated under alkaline and acidic conditions. The resultant acidic activated sludge solids are neutralized before and passed to a mixing and drying apparatus (5) where the solids are mixed with the digested sludge and dried using the bio-gas as a fuel. <IMAGE>

Title: Echo cancellation method and echo canceller implementing such a process
Inventor: CAPMAN FRANCOIS
IPC: H04M9/08
Filed: 1998-01-20
Granted: 2000-01-06
Abstract: The method involves applying a received signal (x(n)) to the input of an echo generating system (1). An observation signal ((z(n)) is picked up at the system output and the received signal is filtered to produce a signal (y(n)) which predicts the echo in the observation signal. The error prediction signal is subtracted from the observation signal to produce an error signal (e(n)). The observation signal is decomposed into a number (M) of spectral components which correspond to the different frequencies of the spectrum. Corresponding spectral components are obtained for an echo prediction signal, and values are calculated from the spectral components of the observation signal and the echo prediction signal. These values vary progressively according to the degree of similarity between the spectral components of the observation and prediction signals.
