Abstract: To provide an easily managed method for the ozone treatment of
waste water that is not accompanied by a substantial increase in equipment costs
and that enables the reliable maintenance of an alkaline pH during ozone
treatment. 
     In the ozone treatment of waste water, the waste water is first made
alkaline by the addition of alkali from a line  22  to waste water flowing in a feed line
 12 . A carbonate ion-producing alkaline buffer is then added to the waste water
from a line  18 . Ozone (O 3 ) is introduced from a line  16  to the waste water in a
reaction column  10  while the waste water pH is maintained at 6.0 to 12.5 due to
the action of the alkaline buffer. This results in oxidation of substances in the
waste water, such as organic materials and chemicals, under conditions that
facilitate the production of OH radicals, which are more strongly oxidizing than O 3 
itself.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of an ink cartridge (530) that includes therein a print head (410) for dispensing ink onto a media (220), a movement mechanism (610, 1220, 1314) for enabling movement of the print head, and/or an ink service station (644, 646, 648). In one embodiment, the cartridge is designed to be inserted into a receptacle (524, 604, 606, 1212, 1210, 1214, 1214, 550) so that the cartridge and receptacle form a radial printing system (500, 520, 1000). The receptacle may also include a motion actuator (604, 606, 1212, 1210, 1214, 1214) for engaging with the movement mechanism of the cartridge to thereby move the print head of the cartridge. The movement mechanism of the cartridge works in conjunction with the actuator of the receptacle to thereby move the print head with respect to the cartridge, e.g., moving into and out of the cartridge, and with respect to a rotating media to enable ink to be dispensed by the print head along a radius of a rotating circular media. In a specific implementation, the cartridge remains fixed with respect to the media. In an example application, the radial print system may be used to print a label on the top surface of a recordable circular media, such as a recordable compact disc (CD-R).

Abstract: A broadcast satellite network (200) transmits from a source (201) to multiple router nodes (230) digital real-time program information and best-effort data. The router nodes are specifically suited for extracting best-effort data streams from the multiplexed signal received via, e.g., a satellite. A number of management techniques are disclosed. According to one technique, a packet (150) is formed having a network layer header (152), including a destination address for routing a packet to a destination, a second header identifying a syntax and semantic by which a payload of the packet may be parsed in a predefined fashion (156), and a payload (158) containing a command to be executed by each of one or more to-be-managed nodes (230) to which the packet is destined. The packet is transmitted a plural amount of times to a plurality of nodes, including the one or more to-be-managed nodes, but the command in the particular packet is executed only a single time. According to other techniques, the nodes (230) are divided into groups. In one technique, a unique identifier is assigned to each group and the packet containing the command contains the identifier. The packet is transmitted once but received by all nodes, including the group of nodes to which the same identifier was assigned. Only those nodes of the group with the same identifier execute the command. According to another embodiment, a manager node (212) maintains a list of the addresses of all nodes in a group and automatically transmits the packet once to each address, thereby enabling automatic communication of the same packet to multiple nodes.
