  • Patent number: 8268159
    Abstract: An electrochemical process for the production of sodium hypochlorite is disclosed. The process may potentially be used to produce sodium hypochlorite from seawater or low purity un-softened or NaCl-based salt solutions. The process utilizes a sodium ion conductive ceramic membrane, such as membranes based on NASICON-type materials, in an electrolytic cell. In the process, water is reduced at a cathode to form hydroxyl ions and hydrogen gas. Chloride ions from a sodium chloride solution are oxidized in the anolyte compartment to produce chlorine gas which reacts with water to produce hypochlorous and hydrochloric acid. Sodium ions are transported from the anolyte compartment to the catholyte compartment across the sodium ion conductive ceramic membrane. Sodium hydroxide is transported from the catholyte compartment to the anolyte compartment to produce sodium hypochlorite within the anolyte compartment.

  • Publication number: 20070089073
    Abstract: A shape-based layout beautification operation can be performed on an IC layout to correct layout imperfections. A shape is described by edges (and vertices) related according to specified properties. Each shape can be configured to match specific layout imperfection types. Corrective actions can then be associated with the shapes, advantageously enabling efficient formulation and precise application of those corrective actions. Corrective actions can include absolute, adaptive, or replacement-type modifications to the detected layout imperfections. A concurrent processing methodology can be used to minimize processing overhead during layout beautification, and the actions can also be incorporated into a lookup table to further reduce runtime. A layout beautification system can also be connected to a network across which shapes, actions, and IC layout data files can be accessed and retrieved.

  • Publication number: 20060169594
    Abstract: Disclosed are processes of making solutions of metal alcoholates in their corresponding alcohols using an electrolytic process. In one embodiment, sodium methylate in methanol is made from methanol and sodium hydroxide solution. The sodium hydroxide solution is placed in the anolyte compartment and the methanol is placed in the catholyte compartment, and the two compartments are separated by a ceramic membrane that selectively transports sodium under the influence of current. In preferred embodiments, the process is cost-effective and not environmentally harmful.

  • Patent number: 5270536
    Abstract: A method of using measurements of the dc photocurrent produced by a photodetector to determine the wavelength or color of incident light, or to characterize certain properties of a semiconductor device or material. The intrinsic wavelength filtering ability of the photodetector is used as the basis for determining the wavelength of incident light by relating measurements of the dc photocurrent versus reverse bias voltage to the absorption coefficient of the semiconductor material from which the detector is fabricated. Color detection is accomplished by expressing the measured photocurrent as a linear combination of the photocurrents due to detection of each of the three primary colors. The coefficients of each of the terms of the linear combination are then varied to obtain the best fit to the measured photocurrent. This allows a determination of the color of the detected light based on the respective contributions of each of the primary colors to its actual color.

  • Patent number: 4982844
    Abstract: A bakery basket includes a bottom, opposed side walls and a back wall joined together to form an upwardly open basket body. The side walls include a plurality of vertical support towers which are formed of an outwardly directed projection which defines a hollow opening on the interior of the basket. A slidable bail is positioned within the side walls on a horizontal support ledge therein. Each slidable bail includes one or more support lugs, such as an upper support lug and a lower support lug, and open areas adjacent each hollow opening in the side walls. Slidable bails are moveable in a variety of positions, including positioning the open areas aligned with the hollow openings, positioning the lower support lugs aligned with the hollow openings and positioning the upper support lugs aligned with the hollow openings. In this manner, the baskets may be stacked at one or more height levels and may also be nested together, depending on the position of the slidable bails.
