Abstract: The disclosed subject matter relates to extracorporeal blood processing or other processing of fluids. Volumetric fluid balance, a required element of many such processes, may be achieved with multiple pumps or other proportioning or balancing devices which are to some extent independent of each other. This need may arise in treatments that involve multiple fluids. Safe and secure mechanisms to ensure fluid balance in such systems are described.

Abstract: Provided is an adapter for rack-mounted computing equipment, the adapter including: a chassis; two mounts coupled to the chassis, each of the two mounts having a respective hole shaped to receive and support rack-mountable computing equipment, wherein centers of the holes are between 460 and 470 mm (millimeters) apart from one another in a side-to-side direction of the chassis; two members extending from front of the chassis, the two members being less than 18 mm tall and being between 530 and 550 mm apart in the side-to-side direction; a channel extending at least half a distance along the chassis in a front-to-back direction, the channel defining a volume configured to hold cables extending from a back side of the chassis to a front side of the chassis; and a bus-bar connector mount configured to position a bus-bar connector extending from a back of the chassis.

Abstract: Provided is an external secondary computing device configured to monitor or control a rack-mounted computing device independently of whether the rack-mounted computing device is operating or is turned off via a low-pin-count motherboard bus independently of a baseboard management controller.

Abstract: Provided is a process of managing rack-mounted computing devices in a data center with a distributed peer-to-peer management system, the process including: determining roles of data-center management computing devices in a distributed peer-to-peer data-center management system; receiving, via an out-of-band network, a data-center management command at a given data-center management computing device; distributing, based on at least some of the roles, via the out-of-band network, the data-center management command.

Abstract: A tank for removing sand entrained in a flow includes an inlet assembly including churn tubes configured to receive fluid provided into the tank such that sand is separated from water, gas and oil present in the flow. An oil outlet port communicates with an oil collection device, and a water outlet port communicates with a water outlet assembly.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a method for treating contaminated water, such as leachate from landfills. The method may comprise treating the water with a coagulant, such as an iron salt, then treating the resultant partially treated water with a hydroxide salt, such as lime soda, and finally removing ammonia. The resulting treated water stream is suitable for incorporation into further wastewater treatment processes, such as processes that use biological treatments or land application in agricultural fields.

Abstract: Provided is a device, including: a power supply comprising: a battery configured to output direct current (DC) power at a first voltage and a first current; a battery charger coupled to the battery and configured to charge the battery; a power-converter configured to receive DC power from the battery and convert the DC power to output DC power at a second voltage and a second current, the second voltage being less than half the first voltage and the second current being greater than twice the first current; and an interface to couple output power from the power-converter to a bus-bar power interface of a rack configured to hold computing equipment.
