Abstract: This invention relates to a sewage sludge treatment system resulting in an oxygenated and/or ozonated treated sludge containing substantially no pathogens. The system includes apparatus and a process for mascerating raw sludge, adjusting the pH to about 2.5 to about 3, adjusting the solids content to about 2.5% to about 4%, adjusting the temperature, if necessary, to about 20.degree. C. to about 40.degree. C., mixing an oxygen-rich gas, such as oxygen and/or ozone with the sludge as the sludge is mixed or recirculated through a hyperbaric vessel and simultaneously injecting the oxygen-rich gas into a combination gas and sludge mixing and dispersing assembly in an upper portion of the hyperbaric vessel. Such injection causes mixing of the gas and sludge and dispersement of such mixture in a plurality of streams to atomize and oxygenate the sludge.

Abstract: A device having an analog storage for storing in real time an electric analogue signal proportional to vocal tract resonance periods within speech pitch periods of speech in gas in deep sea diving. A clock is used for providing clock pulses proportional to the depth at which the speech is being made for clocking the analog signal into the analog storage device. A second clock is used for clocking the speech out of the analog storage device at that frequency corresponding to normal voice.
