Abstract: Contaminants can be removed from liquids in accordance with systems and methods herein. One exemplary method can involve introducing an input liquid into a pressurized chamber. The method can also involve oxidizing an organic or inorganic contaminant in the input liquid by heating the input liquid in the pressurized chamber, to create an output liquid that has less of the organic or inorganic contaminant than is present in the input liquid. And the method can involve outputting the output liquid from the pressurized chamber.

Abstract: A method and apparatus redundantly store data, in particular video data objects, in a distributed computer system having at least three processor systems, each processor system being connected in point to point two way channel interconnection with each other processor system. The data is stored in a redundant fashion both at the computer system level as well as the processor system level. Accordingly, the failure of a single processor does not adversely affect the integrity of the data. The computer system can also overlay a switching system connected in a ring fashion for providing a fault tolerance to the failure of a single connected processor system at the switch level. Accordingly, there results a fault tolerant data distribution system.
