Abstract:
Waste water is subjected to electrolysis in an electrolytic cell having an anode comprising an insoluble central electrode and a body of particulate iron pieces disposed therearound and in electrical contact therewith, whereby impurities in the waste water become occluded within a floc of iron hydroxide formed by electrolytic dissolution of the iron pieces, and the floc containing the impurities is subjected to oxidation processing and is thereafter separated. A magnetic field can be applied to the waste water thus treated thereby to promote sedimentation of the floc.
Abstract:
An ammonia gas to be determined, and an oxidative gas containing nitrogen oxides in moles more than those of the ammonia are brought into contact with an analytical catalyst capable of forming nitrogen and water from ammonia and nitrogen oxides.Concentrations of nitrogen oxides of the gas before and after the contact with the analytical catalyst are determined, and an ammonia concentration of the gas is determined by converting the difference between the concentrations of nitrogen oxides to the ammonia concentration by calculation.

Abstract:
A method of controlling a NAND-type flash memory provided with a latch circuit in which data is temporarily stored has measuring a first consumption current of the latch circuit in a first state in which the latch circuit is caused to retain first logic; measuring a second consumption current of the latch circuit in a second state in which the latch circuit is caused to retain second logic obtained by inverting the first logic; and comparing the first consumption current and the second consumption current to cause the latch circuit to retain logic corresponding to the state corresponding to a smaller one of the first consumption current and the second consumption current.
