摘要:
An apparatus and method for measuring the color and gas fill concentration of insulating glass units is disclosed. One apparatus includes a color measuring device and gas fill concentration measuring device coupled to a production line for manufacturing insulating glass units. One method of the invention involves measuring the color and gas fill concentration of insulating glass units after they have been filled with gas and sealed.
摘要:
A calibration technique for a measurement device that produces a spark in an interpane space of an insulating glass unit to determine the content of an inert gas, in particular, argon. Standard calibration units are created which have the same construction as an IGU produced an assembly line. The standard calibration units are filled with varying percentages of argon/oxygen mixture. The calibration technique can be performed on an assembly line by aiming the measurement device at a particular insulating glass unit produced on the assembly line. The measurement device is activated to take a reading of the unit on the line. One of a plurality of calibration standard units of insulating glass units is selected that has substantially an identical construction as the unit on the line except that the calibration standard unit selected has a known, specific amount of certified argon gas that should be the same as the unit on the line. The measurement device is aimed at the calibration standard unit. The measurement device is activated to take a reading of the calibration standard unit. The measurement taken of the calibration standard unit is compared to the known amount of argon gas in the standard calibration unit. And, finally adjusting the calibration of the measurement device if the comparison shows a discrepancy.
摘要:
An apparatus for non-destructively measuring gas compositions in insulated glazing units has an integrated structure that houses circuitry to generate a localized high voltage discharge utilizing a floating ground plane. The localized high voltage discharge is discharged via an integrally arranged discharge head such that an optical emission from an insulated glazing unit in response to the localized high voltage discharge is sampled and analyzed by components housed by the structure
摘要:
A system (100, 200, 300, 400) for producing biogas from waste stream (101) including organic material includes a liquid waste container (102) and a solid waste container (103). In addition, it includes a separator (104) for at least partially separating liquid fraction into the liquid waste container (102) and solid fraction into the solid waste container (103) from the waste stream (101) so that the solid waste container includes more solid content than the liquid waste container. Furthermore, the system includes a communication member (106, 111) between the liquid waste container (102) and a mixer (105, 202) for introducing liquid from the liquid waste container to the waste stream portion containing solid fraction in order to extract more liquid from the solid fraction.
