Abstract: In a pickling process for stainless steels or similar ferrous alloys, continuous reoxidation of Fe 2+  to Fe 3+  and/or NOx to nitric acid in the pickling liquor is economically performed by continuously treating a portion of the pickling liquor into a separate reactor where it is contacted with oxygen onto a catalytic bed and recycling the solution so reoxidized into the pickling bath. The need of continuously adding an oxidant in the form of hydrogen peroxide and of stabilizing compounds into the pickling bath is eliminated altogether thus achieving a dramatic reduction of the processing costs.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un type d'atomiseurs dans lequel un premier fluide s'atomise au-dessus d'un corps d'atomisation constitué d'une lame en forme d'aile. Ce corps est monté dans un canal conduisant un second fluide et dans lequel le premier fluide est introduit par un trou (12) traversant le côté large (2, 4) de la lame en forme d'aile. Cette lame en forme d'aile est montée en présentant le bord de fuite en aval de l'écoulement du second fluide. Cet agencement permet la production d'une grande quantité de particules très fines ou de gouttelettes subissant malencontreusement un effet important de déviation. Or, il s'est avéré qu'il est possible de supprimer ce phénomène en conférant au bord de fuite (8) de la structure de lame en forme d'aile une forme non effilée. En effet, lorsque le bord de fuite est émoussé, le phénomène de fines particules à fort effet de déviation disparaît simplement.

Title: Procedes de reduction de la biomasse et de biorestauration et produits
Inventor: FINNEY JERRY W
IPC: C05F9/04
Filed: 1996-03-13
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un processus de compostage thermophile alcalin destiné à la biodégradation de déchets et à la production de sous-produits utilisés comme engrais agricole, comme produits organiques ou hydrocarbonés pour la biorestauration. Le processus de compostage comprend plusieurs étapes: la première étape consiste à créer des conditions caractérisées par une température et un pH extêmement élevés afin que les bactéries soient soumises à la tension nécessaire pour induire l'hydrolyse - avec catalyse enzymatique - de déchets ou de matières organiques ou hydrocarbonées en présence d'eau. Cette hydrolyse intervient à la fin de la fin de la première étape de compostage, une bactérie indigène étant utilisée dans les conditions ambiantes, avec addition de produits alcalins à la pile de compost pour obtenir un pH d'au moins 10; suit une seconde étape de compostage, après quoi des produits nutritifs sont additionnés à la pile de compost, dont le niveau d'humidité reste élevé pendant la dernière étape de compostage. Les produits compostés sont uniques et peuvent s'utiliser lors de procédés ultérieurs pour la biorestauration in situ ou ex situ de produits contaminants organiques ou hydrocarbonés. On obtient une biorestauration souterraine in situ en combinant des courants électriques continus pour faciliter la diffusion des agents de traitement dans les sols ou l'argile contaminés.

Title: Video encoder and decoder using motion-based segmentation and merging
Inventor: NIEWEGLOWSKI JACEK
IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 1996-04-19
Abstract: This invention relates to motion compensated (MC) coding of video and to a MC prediction scheme which allows fast and compact encoding of motion vector fields retaining at the same time very low prediction error. By reducing prediction error and number of bits needed for representation of motion vector field, substantial savings of bit rate are achieved. Reduction of bit rate needed to represent motion field is achieved by merging segments in video frames, by adaptation of motion field model and by utilization of motion field model based on orthogonal polynomials.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé et un appareil qui assurent un stockage redondant de données, et notamment de données vidéo, dans une installation informatique répartie comportant au moins trois unités (138, 140, 152) de traitement qui sont toutes reliées entre elles par des interconnexions point à point de type canal bidirectionnel. Les données sont stockées de manière redondante, à la fois au niveau de l'installation informatique et au niveau des unités de traitement. Par conséquent, la défaillance d'une seule unité de traitement n'a pas de conséquences défavorables sur l'intégrité des données. Le système informatique peut également recouvrir un ensemble de dispositifs de commutation (142, 144, 154) reliés en anneau pour assurer la tolérance aux pannes en cas de défaillance, au niveau commutation, d'une seule unité de traitement reliée aux autres. On obtient de cette manière un système de répartition des données tolérant aux pannes.

Abstract: A position determining system takes the form of a cellular radio system including at least one base station having a base station satellite receiver (6) and a mobile unit including a cellular mobile station (50) coupled to a local satellite receiver (58). The base station transmits base station satellite data via a cellular radio link to the mobile unit, the data including data representing a carrier phase measurement derived from a satellite signal (70) received by the base station satellite receiver (6). The mobile unit determines its position relative to the base station using local satellite data received by the local satellite receiver (58) and corrects errors in this position determination using base station satellite data. The relative positions of the base stations are determined automatically with reference to an external positional reference which may be a satellite-based position determining system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting messages
between networked subscriber units, which improves the network
overall efficiency and allows the traffic load on the network units
to be more uniformly distributed. At least one network service
unit is assigned from the subscriber units to receive and
intermediately store the messages. Each of the network elements
generates a periodically transmitted service signal including
identification and status information of the network element. On
the basis of the received service signals, each of the network
elements generates an accessibility ranked list 9 of all operative
network elements, including a field 10 with identification of a
subscriber unit, field 11 indicating the subscriber unit's function
and field 12 indicating accessibility of the appropriate network
element. The message is transmitted to the destination unit over a
route determined on the basis of the ranked list of the network
elements.

Abstract: In a radio paging receiver including a processing part (10) for processing, in response to a radio signal carrying a call number assigned to the receiver and a service information signal representative of service information which succeeds the call number, the radio signal into the service information signal when the processing means detects the call number in the radio signal, a detecting part (5, 6) detects the service information signal as a detected service information signal to produce a detection pulse signal. A counting part (7, 7') has a count initially equal to a positive integer and counts down the count in response to the detection pulse signal to produce an enabling signal when the count is not equal to zero. A memory section (8) memorizes the detected service information signal as a memorized service information signal in response to the enabling signal. A announcing section (9) announces, in response to the memorized service information signal, the service information represented by the memorized service information signal. The counting part does not carry out the counting operation and production of the enabling signal but produces a zero count signal representative of a zero count in response to the detection pulse signal received when the count is equal to zero. The announcing section announces, in response to the zero count signal, the zero count represented by the zero count signal.
