Abstract: An interactive networked client-server scan method launched and actively managed through a web browser interface on a client. A server of the method responds to a universal resource locator address identifying the server with a general purpose format software program that creates an interface in the client web browser and enables the client to interact with the server in initiating, altering and monitoring scan jobs and related data. The server preferably provides peripheral status information to the web browser, and enables the client to initiate preview scans while providing progress updates concerning such scans to the client. Parameter selection and alteration is also a preferred functionality enabled for selection and alteration in the client interface through the general purpose software program provided by the server. The server translates and formats data for the client, and also preferably performs an on-the-fly gamma correction of color data to data prior to transmitting it to the client.

Abstract: A wastewater treatment system for deployment in a body of water having a floor and a water surface includes an in-pond clarifier extending across the body of water. The in-pond clarifier defines a clarifying chamber and includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion is suspended above the wastewater surface. The lower portion is maintained adjacent to the floor of the body of water. As a result, the body of water is divided into distinct treatment zones on opposite sides of the clarifying chamber. The in-pond clarifier further includes a plurality of pumps for removing biological solids which settle within the clarifying chamber. Separate pumps are provided for either returning settled solids to the body of water or for wasting settled solids from the body of water.
