Title: A process for the separation of sulphides from pulping liquors using amphoteric resins
Inventor: SHEEDY MICHAEL
IPC: D21C11/00
Filed: 1998-01-23
Abstract: A process using an amphoteric ion-exchange resin, also known as a "snake-cage polyelectrolyte" resin, contained in an ion retardation unit (9) separates kraft white liquor (8) into sulphide-rich (12) and caustic-rich (10) components. The sulphide-rich component (12) can be used in the initial stage of pulping (1), pretreatment of wood chips prior to pulping, or it can be used to make polysulphide-rich liquor. The caustic-rich component (10) can be used in the final delignification phase, in place of sodium hydroxide or white liquor in oxygen delignification, pH adjustment and flue gas scrubbing. The same system can be used to separate green (6) and polysulphide liquors (8a) into sulphide-rich and sulphide-poor components, and to remove sulphide from other mill caustic streams contaminated with sulphide.

Title: System for detecting fluorescing components in aerosols
Inventor: QUANT FREDERICK R
IPC: G01N15/00
Filed: 1998-03-17
Abstract: An electro-optical aerosol characterizing system includes a continuous wave laser (24) for generating two beams (26a, 26b) in the red wavelength range, intersecting a particle stream (20) at slightly spaced apart locations. A  pulsed UV laser (38) generates a beam that intersects the particle stream at a third location downstream. Laser energy scattered by each particle as it passes the first two locations, is used to compute aerodynamic sizes and UV  laser pulsing times (94), so that in each case the UV beam irradiates the particle at the downstream location. Particles containing biological materials or other fluorescing components emit fluorescence signals in response to the irradiation. Accordingly, the system provides information about particle composition as well as particle size.
Patent CA-2285851-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VINCENT JOHN EDWARD
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-10-13
Abstract: A packet routing system is disclosed that allows for efficient transfer of data flows from router to router with use of supertrunking. The router that receives a data flow inputs the packets of the data flow, determines the logical output port corresponding to the data flow, assigns the entire data flow to a physical output port within the logical output port with use of a load balancing function, encapsulates each packet within a Packet Forwarding Header (PFH) and a Rotator Information Unit (RIU) header that identifies the assigned physical output port, and outputs the encapsulated packets of the data flow to the assigned physical output port. The assigned physical output port removes the PFH and the RIU header from each packet and outputs the packets to a physical link. The router that receives the packets can treat the packets of the particular data flow like typical packets since all the packets of the same data flow traverse the same physical link resulting in no mis-ordering of packets.
