Title: A differential output stage for electronic equipment providing a remote power feed to a terminal
Inventor: BOUZIDI JEAN-PIERRE
IPC: H03F3/45
Filed: 2000-03-31
Abstract: The differential stage comprises two routes each connecting an input (Ea, Eb) to an output (Sa, Sb), each route comprising a first device (1a, 1b) for adding a feedback voltage from the other route to the input voltage of the considered route. There is a second device in the form of subtractor (2a, 2b) for providing the feedback voltage to the other route. Capacitors (C2a, C2b) provide a feedback voltage from the other route, so that the feedback voltage is a function only of the AC component of the outp voltage of the first device (1a, 1b). The first device also adds a DC voltage (VCA VCB) to the output voltage of that route. Each route includes a transistor (Ta, Tb) for adding a supplementary DC current to a current delivered by the first device that route at the output. There is also a low-pass filter (3a, 3b) and a stage amplifier (4a, 4b) for controlling the supplement current as a function of the DC component of the current delivered by the first device (1a, 1b). This annuls the DC component of that current. The output terminals (Sa, Sb) are connected by line (L) with resistances for matching and protection (Rsa, Rsb) to terminal (T) represented by a resistance (Rcc) and a capacitance (Cal) in series with an AC resistance (Ral).

Title: Bleaching cellulose pulp from hardwood using chlorine and enzymes
Inventor: SALKINOJA-SALONEN MIRJA
IPC: D21C9/12
Filed: 1989-03-13
Abstract: The present invention concerns a procedure for bleaching cellulose pulp obtained from hardwood, wherein bleaching chemical containing chlorine is used. The essential feature of the invention is that the residual chlorine content of the bleached pulp is reduced by subjecting the pulp to enzyme treatment. With the enzyme especially the removal from the pulp of chlorine-binding extractive substances present in hardwood pulp is promoted. The invention furthermore concerns the use of enzyme towards lowering the residual chlorine content of bleached cellulose pulp made from hardwood. Such cellulose pulp is particularly contemplated which will be converted into foodstuff package cardboard or paper, which are commonly disposed of by burning. Lowered chlorine content reduces the risk of producing toxic dioxin at the incineration step.

Patent AU-4849800-A (AU)
Title: High speed pickling bath control
Inventor: LORDO RICHARD K
IPC: C23G3/02
Filed: 2000-05-15
Abstract: A high-speed strip (1) pickling and other treatment such as rinsing and cleaning the acid (13), or other fluid treating medium, tends to be carried along with the strip (1), which reduces the efficiency of contact of the fluid with the strip (1). The invention addresses this problem by providing a segmented bath, each segment having a deflector (14) over the strip (1) to cause a flow reversal of the acid (13), which is then guided by an inclined separator panel (10) to the upstream end of the segment and deposited again on the strip (1). The exit of the segment also includes a constriction (15) to cause the fluid to accelerate, creating turbulence, and, on the exit side of the constriction (15), causing a decrease in pressure, whereby fluid is drawn down from above the separator panel (10), which in turn assists the circulation of fluid through the flow reversal. <IMAGE>
