In one embodiment, a reactive filtration method includes continuously regenerating a reactive filter media while simultaneously filtering contaminants from fluid flowing through the filter media. In one embodiment, regenerating the reactive filter media comprises mixing metal granules with the filter media and agitating the mixture. In another embodiment, regenerating the reactive filter media comprises introducing a metal in the fluid flowing through the filter media and agitating the filter media. In one embodiment, a method for removing phosphorus, arsenic or a heavy metal from water includes introducing a metal salt reagent into the water at a molar ratio of 5:1 to 200:1 to the phosphorous or the arsenic in the water and passing the water through a bed of moving sand.

Micro-fluid ejection head structures, methods of making micro-fluid ejection head structures having improved operability, and methods for improving the durability of micro-fluid ejection head structures are provided. One such micro-fluid ejection head structure includes a micro-fluid ejection head having a substrate and nozzle plate assembly adhesively attached adjacent to a substrate support using a substrate adhesive. The nozzle plate is adhesively attached adjacent to the substrate with a nozzle plate adhesive. A thermally, UV or other cure mechanism encapsulant material is attached adjacent to the ejection head and substrate support. Each of the substrate adhesive, and the encapsulant material, after curing, have a Young's modulus of less than about 2000 MPa, a shear modulus at 25° C. of less than about 15 MPa, and a glass transition temperature of less than about 90° C.

A method and an apparatus in a first wireless station of a network transmitting to a second wireless station. The network uses multi-tone OFDM signals. The first station includes multiple antennas and a receive and a transmit signal path per antenna. Each receive signal path includes a discrete Fourier transformer determining the tones in a received signal, and each transmit signal path includes an inverse discrete Fourier transformer converting tones to a signal. The method includes determining channel estimates for each tone and each receive path while receiving from the second station, determining transmit weights to transmit to the second station, tone-by-tone weighting a signal for transmission to the second station to produce weighted tone sets for each transmit signal path, and transmitting the weighted tone sets. The first station is configured so that the weighting produces additive beamforming without the second station needing multiple antennas.
摘要:
A substantially inorganic planarization layer for a micro-fluid ejection head substrate and method therefor. The planarization layer includes a plurality of layers composed of one or more dielectric compounds and at least one spin on glass (SOG) layer having a total thickness ranging from about 1 microns to about 15 microns deposited over a second metal layer of the micro-fluid ejection head substrate. A top most layer of the planarization layer is selected from one or more of the dielectric compounds and a hard mask material.
摘要:
A hanger assembly comprising a tubular housing having an internal cylindrical bore provided with an annular recess containing a fixed, annular, downwardly tapering ramp, and, supported on the ramp, a split, radially contractible, wedge locking ring which normally adopts a relaxed position not projecting into the bore; and a tubular hanger having an external surface which is a clearance sliding fit in the bore and which is provided with resilient energising mechanism, which are recessed in the external surface and held there by engagement with the bore during running in of the hanger until the energising mechanism come into alignment with the annular recess, whereupon the energising mechanism expands radially outwards to overlie the locking ring, final running in of the hanger forcing the locking ring down the ramp and hence causing the ring to contract radially and to grip the external surface of the hanger.

A connector for connecting two tubular members (1,2) having annular flanges (3,4) at their ends. The connector comprising an actuating ring (13) movable in the axial direction of the tubular members (1,2), a plurality of upper dogs (15) for engaging the flange (3) of the upper tubular member (1) and a corresponding plurality of lower dogs (17) for engaging the flange (4) of the lower tubular member (2). Each pair of upper (15) and lower (17) dogs are connected by a stud (24) and are axially separable providing a sealed cavity (22) between the dogs which is supplied, in use, with hydraulic fluid. In use, the supply of hydraulic fluid to the cavity (22) forces the upper (15) and lower (17) dogs apart to tension the stud, so that, when the dogs are moved adjacent to the upper and lower flanges (3,4) and the pressure in the cavities (22) is released, the tension in the stud will be released allowing the upper (15) and lower (17) dogs to slide back together and clamp the upper (3) and lower (4) flanges together.
摘要:
A sealing assembly for sealing between two relatively rotatable cylindrical surfaces. The assembly comprises two seal parts (46, 48) disposed in a groove (40) in one of the surfaces so that one of said parts is disposed radially outwardly of the other. One (46) of the parts is movable axially relative to the other (48) to effect setting of the sealing assembly and the groove (40) and parts (46, 48) are so dimensioned that they become compressed between the surfaces during setting of the assembly. Adjacent surfaces of the seal parts (46, 48) may have inter-engaging profiles (55) which permit relative movement for setting the assembly, but resist movement in the opposite direction.

Sealing mechanisms are provided. In one embodiment, a system includes a connector configured to couple one or more flow-control valves to equipment installed at a well and an isolation sleeve configured to be retained by the connector. The isolation sleeve may include a seal and a hydraulically actuated piston disposed adjacent one another about a body of the isolation sleeve such that actuation of the piston engages the seal. The isolation sleeve may also include a mechanically driven actuator ring, where the actuator ring energizes a seal against the bore of a tubing hanger. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

In an example embodiment, packet encapsulation is employed to facilitate bridging between bridge ports that do not reflect frames (such as 802.1 compatible bridge ports) and bridge ports that do reflect frames (such as 802.11 compatible clients). Packets from a wireless access point may be sent twice, once with a predefined multicast address for processing by 802.11 clients contained in bridges, and once with the original destination address. In particular embodiments, additional means may be employed to minimize the circumstances where packets are duplicated.
