Abstract: Electrolytic cartridges for, systems for, and methods of electrolyzing a brine solution of water and an alkali salt to produce acidic electrolyzed water and alkaline electrolyzed water are provided. The system includes an internal chamber for receiving the brine solution and at least two electrolytic cartridges immersed in a brine bath. Each electrolytic cartridge includes an electrode, an ion selective membrane disposed on a side of the electrode so as to define a space adjacent to at least a portion of the electrode, a permeable insert covering the ion selective membrane on a side opposite the space, and a bonding plate disposed on the permeable insert on a side opposite the side facing the ion selective membrane. The methods recycle at least a portion of alkaline electrolyzed water into the feed of a cartridge having a positively charged electrode.

Abstract: An electrolyzing system for electrolyzing a brine solution is provided that includes a housing defining a brine compartment and a fresh water compartment. A first electrolytic cartridge is arranged in the brine compartment and includes an electrically charged electrode. The first electrolytic cartridge includes an inlet in fluid communication with the fresh water compartment and an outlet that is fluid communication with a dispensing system. An electrically powered pump directs fresh water from the fresh water compartment to the inlet of the cartridge. A control system is configured to direct electric power from a power supply to the pump when flow of fresh water from the fresh water compartment to the inlet of the cartridge is detected and configured to stop supplying electric power to the pump when flow of fresh water from the fresh water compartment to the inlet of the cartridge is not detected.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus that receives, over a network from a computing device being used by a user, a request to configure a first software module host with respect to a software module, the first software module host associated with the user. The apparatus transmits over the network to the computing device instructions to configure, for display by the computing device, the first software module host in accordance with the request. The apparatus computer transmits over the network to the computing device instructions to apply the same configuration with respect to the software module to a second software module host, the second software module host also associated with the user.

Abstract: A CCD device of the type which provides gain by impact ionisation in a multiplication register includes an arrangement for production of a first output signal derived from a known input with multiplication applied and a second output signal derived from a different input with unit gain applied. Using the known ratios of the two signals, the gain of the multiplication register can be determined. The two signals can be derived from accumulating thermal charge in elements a CCD image device and by summing charge to produce a signal processed with unity gain and by averaging charge for use with the signal with gain applied. An alternative embodiment uses an extra light source for producing input signals of known ratio.

Abstract: Vertical and horizontal smear in images produced by a CCD imager can be compensated for by detecting the boundaries of the smear and substituting data from an alternative part of the image, or interpolated data within those boundaries. Vertical, or frame transfer, smear can also be compensated for by producing an error signal from charge accumulated during frame transfer and corresponding to one or more masked rows of the CCD imager. This error signal can be subtracted from the line signals corresponding to each row of the CCD images receiving radiation during image acquisitions. The CCD imager includes a multiplication register. The dynamic range of the imager may be extended by varying the gain of the multiplication register, for example on a line-by-line or frame-by-frame basis.
