摘要:
Polynuclear aromatic compounds are irreversibly adsorbed by coconut charcoal and are separated from desired constituents by treatment in a coconut charcoal column. This invention is particularly valuable in providing a method suitable for large scale use for removing dioxins and other undesirable polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons which are found as impurities in small but highly toxic amounts in industrial compounds and herbicides such as 2,4,5-T, 2,4-D and derivatives thereof.
摘要:
The local clocks within each node of a loosely distributed network system may be synchronized and syntonized by any of the nodes in the network. Each of the nodes contains a time packet detector (TPD) that detects and recognizes timing data packets and produces a recognition signal. This signal may be used to cause an action in the detecting node, in particular the node may contain a time service block (TSB) containing a local clock that may be used to record the time of the recognition signal. The recorded times may be used as the basis for correcting the local clocks of the nodes in the system. Transfer devices such as gateways, bridges, and routers may include TSBs and TPDs to allow for correction for the transit time of time packets through the transfer device. The TPD is normally connected within the media access device at the point of final encoding for transmission or recovery of the clock and data for receiving where the time jitter will be at a minimum.

Molybdenum is separated from molybdenum-containing activated charcoal or char also containing small amounts of uranium obtained as a by-product in uranium leaching processes by stripping with an alkaline solution to provide a molybdenum-containing solution containing substantially less than 500 ppm U.sub.3 O.sub.8.

A tristatic radar tracking system is disclosed in which two remote transmitters and a radar receiver use a method for combining measurements of the Doppler frequency shift and angle of arrival of two signals scattered by a moving target to derive parameters of the target's trajectory through space.

A tree stand taking the form of a foldable sheet material housing having a planar base and a plurality of evenly spaced side wall members extending therefrom. The outermost end of each of the side wall members are to cooperate together to form an enclosed area. A support ring is to be located about the outermost ends forming a polygonal shaped enclosed area. Thread fasteners are to threadingly extend through the support ring into the enclosed area and are adapted to come into contact with the trunk of the supported tree which in turn extends within the formed interior chamber of the housing. The interior chamber of the housing includes a flexible walled water tight container within which is to be located a quantity of water. The free end of the trunk of the tree is to rest upon a resilient pad of material secured to the inside surface of the container located adjacent the base of the sheet material housing.

A clamp secures disks to a hub through means of a push-on retaining ring which is engaged with a grip ring received in an annular groove extending around the hub. The grip ring is split and expansible to enable it to be engaged with, or removed from, the groove. Spaced detent grooves are formed in the external surface of the grip ring to provide different positions at which the retaining ring may be engaged with the grip ring to alter the degree of compression imparted to the disks by the retaining ring. The retaining ring may be pushed fully past the grip ring to release the clamp. An installation and release fixture is provided to selectively move the retaining ring over the grip ring.
摘要:
Membrane separation of monosaccharides from an aqueous solution containing higher saccharides and saccharifying enzyme is considerably improved when the separation is performed under conditions where the polarization modulus for the enzyme is between 10 and 1,000, especially when the latter is between 50 and 500. A process utilizing this constraint affords a considerable savings in enzyme residence time and enzyme usage, and permits glucose of at least 94% purity to be prepared using membranes with a molecular weight cutoff as high as 70,000 with partial saccharification of thinned starch to give glucose levels in the range of 65-90%.
摘要:
In the present invention, an improved retaining member for a disc drive is disclosed. The disc drive has a spindle with a plurality of data storage discs mounted on the spindle. The retaining member is in the shape of a ring with a central hole and a plurality of spaced-apart teeth-shaped members positioned circumferentially about the ring and protruding into the central hole. The retaining member is positioned with the spindle through the central hole and substantially abuts one of the data storage discs. The plurality of teeth-shaped members are urged against the side of the spindle.
摘要:
The bladder has at least a portion of its outer surface comprising a fabric layer of cords partially embedded therein so that such cords project slightly above the rubber surface. The article is manufactured by calendering a fabric layer of cords on one side only with a coating of uncured and unvulcanized rubber, applying the layer to the bladder material with the rubber coated surface in contact therewith, and heating the article so formed to cure the rubber coating. The curing causes some of the rubber coating to flow between and over the outside surfaces of the cords. This excess rubber is removed by abrading the article so as to expose the cords. The abrading removes some of the cured rubber between the cords so that the cords project slightly above the surface of the rubber substrate.
