Title: Method and composition for cleaning and maintaining water delivery systems
Inventor: IVERSON CARL E
IPC: C02F5/10
Filed: 2001-08-03
Granted: 2012-07-17
Abstract: A sodium chlorite solution (26) is admixed with a second solution containing an acid (28) to make a reacted mixture (30). The reacted mixture is introduced into a water system, viz. a conduit (12) in which water flows or a tank containing water. The reacted mixture is added to the water system to inhibit and/or eliminate bacterial fouling in the system, and/or inhibiting and/or removing mineral deposits from the system, and/or for reducing or eliminating microorganisms from the system. The second component is acidic enough to convert the sodium chlorite into chlorine dioxide while remaining unaffected in the reacted mixture and at the same time being a mineral antiscalant.  Optimum conversion of the sodium chlorite component into active chlorine dioxide requires at least several minutes reaction time and, preferably, the use of a suitable catalyst, such as sodium molybdate.

Abstract: A first Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) enabled Internet Protocol (IP) data network (11) is able to transmit data to a second MPLS enabled IP network (13) via a legacy optical network (12), which would not otherwise be able to handle the user network interface (UNI) protocols required to be used within an MPLS network environment, by means of configuring the legacy optical network (12) and its traditional network management system (16) (TNMS) so that they simulate or emulate an MPLS enabled optical network. The simulation/emulation of an MPLS network is performed as follows: when a first legacy network element (NE) (14a) receives a connection request (a UNI request) from the MPLS network (11) under a UNI protocol, the UNI request is passed (arrow A) to the TNMS (16), which then sets (arrows B) the required connection across the legacy network (12) via a second edge NE (14b) to an NE of the second IP network (13). Once the connection has been set the TNMS (16) instructs (arrow C) the edge NE (14a) to send a return signal to the requesting network (11) indicating that the connection has been successfully set. Data packets may then be transmitted across the network (11, 12, 13).

Abstract: A dishwashing machine including a comminution device and a method for comminuting residue in the dishwasher. The comminution device at minimal manufacturing costs, makes it possible to easily comminute the coarse contaminants or residue accumulating during the rinse cycle in the dishwashing machine, flush it out of the dishwasher and at the same time reduce the danger of clogging the sieve(s) placed in the dishwasher. The comminution device preferably is actuated by the lye pump of the dishwashing machine. In this manner the comminution device is actuated easily and efficiently, which both enables cost-effective manufacture of the dishwashing machine, and improves its operating safety and ease of maintenance. In the process the rinse residue can first collect during the rinse cycle in uncomminuted form on the floor of the rinsing container and only then be comminuted when the washing liquid is pumped out and flushed out of the dishwashing machine.
