Abstract: A system for removing contaminants from a pyrolysis fluid is provided. The system comprises a recirculation loop; and a bleed off line. The recirculation loop comprises a quenching vessel; separation apparatus; a recirculation line; and cooling apparatus. The quenching vessel has: a first inlet for receiving a supply of pyrolysis fluid; a second inlet arranged to receive a recirculated fluid; and an outlet for expelling quenched pyrolysis fluid. The separation apparatus is for removing contaminants from the quenched pyrolysis fluid to provide a clarified flow, the separation apparatus arranged to receive quenched pyrolysis fluid from the outlet. The recirculation line is arranged to receive at least a recirculation portion of the clarified flow and recirculate the recirculation portion to the second inlet. The cooling apparatus is arranged to cool fluid in the recirculation loop. The bleed-off line is for selectively bleeding-off a bleed-off portion of the clarified flow from the recirculation loop.

Abstract: A graphics processing system with a data store includes processing units for processing tasks. A check unit forms a signature which is characteristic of an output from processing a task on a processing unit, and a fault detection unit compares signatures formed at the check unit. Each task is processed first and second times at the processing units to generate first and second processed outputs. The graphics processing system write outs the first processed output to the data store, reads back the first processed output from the data store and forms at the check unit a first signature characteristic of the first processed output as read back from the data store; forms at the check unit a second signature characteristic of the second processed output, compares the first and second signatures at the fault detection unit, and raises a fault signal if the signatures do not match.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating a topology of components based on a set of components provided by a user. The system identifies, for each particular component of the first set of components, one or more characteristics. The characteristics may include at least one of: a rule associated with the particular component, a requirement associated with the particular component, a data input type corresponding to the particular component, and data output type corresponding to the particular component. Based on the characteristics, the system determines that an additional component not included in the first set of components is required for connecting the first set of components. The system selects the additional component and determines a topology of components that includes the first set of components and the additional component. The system also determines a dataflow between components in the topology of components.

Abstract: The preferred embodiment of the present invention is a sling for holding a leg of an animal and a method of use thereof, the sling having a strap portion wrapable around the animal's leg; and two anchor portions spaced apart by the strap portion, wherein in use the strap portion is wrapped around the raised leg of the animal, while the anchor portions are positioned between a person's legs to support the animal's leg in the raised position so that the foot of the raised animal's leg can be treated and/or shoed.

Abstract: A reusable carrier with expandable, disposable insert is disclosed including an apron having at least one pocket and a disposable container therein. The disposable container includes a front wall and a back wall each having an outwardly disposed clip to secure the disposable container within a pocket of the apron, a pair of extendable side walls between and attached to both front and back walls, and an extendable bottom wall attached to front, back, and side walls to form a leakproof receptacle. In one alternate embodiment, a second disposable container is attached to the front wall of the disposable container. Alternate embodiments further comprise a stiffener attached to at least one of the side and bottom walls within the disposable container to prevent collapse of the container during use. In yet other alternate embodiments, a plurality of ribs are provided within the disposable container along both front and back walls to prevent splashing and spillage.
