Patent EP-0631980-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HIRAI YOJI
IPC: C01B32/336
Filed: 1994-06-29
Abstract: To produce active carbon particles by carbonizing a carbon based raw material in a steam atmosphere while feeding electricity to the raw material received in a rotary reactor (7), a plurality of electrical receiving rods (6) are secured to the inner wall surface of a cylindrical wall (10) of the rotary reactor (7) in the equally-spaced relationship as seen in the circumferential direction. In operation, a certain intensity of electric current is fed to the electricity receiving rods (6) via a plurality of electrodes (13) and a plurality of electrode contacts (19) to induce arc-discharging between the electricity receiving rods (6) and the raw material received in the rotary reactor (7). To reliably prevent the temperature of the steam atmosphere from being abnormally elevated, carbon dioxide gas is introduced into a carbonizing chamber of the rotary reactor (7) via a gas inflow pipe (3). To rotatably support the rotary reactor (7), the gas inflow pipe (3), a steam inflow pipe (4) and a temperature sensor pipe (5), a rotary joint (1) is disposed at the position located outside of a side wall (10) of the rotary reactor (7). Nitrogen gas may be substituted for the carbon dioxide gas in order to attenuate the endothermic reaction arising in the rotary reactor (7). In addition, used active carbon particles can be re-activated in the carbonizing chamber of the rotary reactor (7) by feeding electricity to the used active carbon particles via the electricity receiving rods (6).

Abstract: A low concentration (0.1 to 0.5 mM) of aluminum ions is added to an organic waste water to selectively raise specific bacteria which can grow without producing unpleasant odors. The bacteria is used for treating the organic waste water of high density without producing odors thus contributing to the minimum size of a waste water treatment system. Then, increase of the aluminum ions to a high concentration (more than 4 mM) accelerates flocculation and precipitation of the bacteria for disposal. When a proper mineral is added to the waste water, a lower concentration (more than 1 mM) of the aluminum ions can encourage the flocculation and precipitation of the bacteria and also, a resultant sludge will be reduced in amount for ease of maintenance.

Abstract: Systèmes et procédés destinés à déterminer optiquement la direction d'un objet, tel qu'un pointeur (50), par rapport à un système d'affichage, en particulier des systèmes où la triangulation est employée pour localiser un pointeur (50) au sein d'un champ de visualisation généralement plan, tel qu'un écran tactile (30). Plutôt que d'employer des systèmes d'affichage focalisés pour produire une image nette au niveau du plan d'un photodétecteur et pour définir ainsi le crayon visuel en vue de la position du doigt, on emploie une image délibérément floue ou diffuse. La diffusion produit une répartition d'intensité caractéristique 'en forme de cloche' ou gaussienne (104-106). La reconnaissance de la répartition d'intensité caractéristique permet de déterminer la position de l'intensité maximale, et partant la direction de l'objet (50), sur une petite fraction de la distance entre des points d'échantillonnage, avec une résolution donc bien plus élevée que les systèmes focalisés. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le système de localisation de la position est incorporé dans un système informatique (52, 54, 30) tel qu'un appareil à écran tactile et un curseur (51) est affiché sur l'écran aussitôt qu'un pointeur (50) est détecté au-dessus dudit écran (30).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour l'induction d'une perte de transmission optique localisée dans un câble à fibres optiques particulièrement adapté à l'utilisation avec un équipement de réflectométrie optique du domaine temporel (OTDR) de manière à faciliter la localisation de dérangements dans un câble à fibres optiques. Une petite partie du câble à fibres optiques est refroidie, par exemple, par immersion dans un liquide cryogénique tel que de l'azote, et les fibres dans la partie du câble refroidie présentent une perte de transmission optique localisée pouvant être détectée en tant que perte ponctuelle (26) à l'aide de l'analyse OTDR (24). La technique d'induction de perte ponctuelle est non invasive, et la perte de transmission localisée disparaît lorsque la partie de câble refroidie revient à la température ambiante, sans que le câble ne soit endommagé.

Abstract: Une machine (75) permettant de congeler ou de refroidir un liquide en continu pour obtenir une pâte fluide (20) constituée de liquide et de cristaux congelés, reçoit le liquide en continu par le haut d'un tube de transfert de chaleur (1) disposé verticalement. Un réfrigérant (39) coulant sur la surface externe (1b) du tube s'évapore en formant un flux de vapeur/mousse, ce qui provoque la congélation du liquide sur la surface interne du tube (1a). Une tige de raclage (9), de préférence supportée uniquement à sa base, tourne sur la surface interne (1a) pour déloger mécaniquement les cristaux congelés et pour étaler le liquide. Un additif ajouté au liquide, tel que l'éthylène glycol (dans l'eau) aide à ce délogement. Dans une forme de réalisation, un guide mécanique pour l'écoulement (35) entourant la surface externe produit un écoulement (39) pelliculaire ascendant rapide du réfrigérant en ébullition, ce qui augmente le transfert thermique. Un entraînement orbital (4-8, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111) assure la rotation de la tige de raclage (9). Dans une forme de réalisation, l'entraînement orbital comporte une paire de plaques horizontales (101, 102) couplées entre la tige de raclage (9) et au moins une manivelle excentrée (109, 109'). Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'entraînement comporte une paire de contrepoids (7, 7) couplés rigidement au tube de transfert de chaleur que des moteurs indépendants (8, 8) font tourner en synchronisation de phases, grâce à la conception dynamique du système.
