Abstract: Contaminant metal ions are removed from a liquid stream by a process involving contacting at adsorption conditions the liquid stream with a novel crystalline molecular sieve which has a crystal structure which is an intergrowth of the pharmacosiderite and sitinakite structures. The molecular sieve has an empirical formula of: A((4-4x)/n)(MxTi1-zGey)4(Ge1-pSip)qOr where A is a cation such as sodium or potassium and M is a metal such as niobium or tantalum. These molecular sieves are particularly effective in removing cesium and strontium ions from aqueous streams. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A scalable networking protocol that allows multiple nodes to communicate via a common data/control channel is described. The networking protocol allows any node on the network to assign itself as the active network server. The active network server polls client nodes based on a lineup card. Inactive nodes are automatically removed from the lineup card, thus reducing unnecessary polling traffic. This architecture reduces collisions while preserving bandwidth for actual data transmission. Support for both control and data networking needs is provided by the protocol. Support for streaming data or asynchronous data is provided by allocating time slots on the network and allowing two intelligent nodes to talk directly to each other as arbitrated by the active network server. The active network server can also allocate separate data channels such that large amounts of data traffic can flow independently of the operations of the main network. The network node serving as the active network server can be changed on a dynamic basis, and is typically determined by the first node initiating a transmit request on a sleeping network. Client nodes are addressed by dynamic-polling using an address isolation scheme.
