Abstract: A disclosed management apparatus monitors hardware faults in an information processing apparatus. And the management apparatus includes a first processing unit that determines whether a first notification representing that a fault occurred includes identification information of hardware in which the fault occurred, upon receiving the first notification from the information processing apparatus; a second processing unit that transmits an execution request to execute a module for obtaining the identification information of the hardware to the information processing apparatus, upon determining that the first notification does not include the identification information of the hardware; and a third processing unit that transmits a stop request to stop executing the module to the information processing apparatus, upon receiving the identification information of the hardware from the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: A member management system 1 including: a server unit 21 including: a device information collection unit 202 that collects from an attached member unique information of the attached member; a test implementation unit 204 that specifies the member with the unique information, and implements a given test; and a member information collection unit 201 that collects environment information of the given test, the environment information including the unique information and location information of the member; and a management unit 11 including: a member database 103 that associates unique information of a member, location information of the member and status information of the member with each other, and stores the unique information, the location information and the status information; and a member information management unit 101 that updates each information on the member stored into the database and being used for the given test, based on the environment information.

Abstract: In a chemical decontamination method of chemically decontaminating radioactive nuclides from a metallic material, oxalic acid and hydrazine are injected as a reductive decontaminating agent into water that is in contact with the metallic material. Injection of the hydrazine is stopped after a cation resin arranged in a circulation line connected to the metallic material breaks, and at least the oxalic acid and the hydrazine in the reductive decontaminating agent are decomposed using a decomposing catalyst.

Abstract: In a chemical decontamination apparatus, a catalyst decomposition column in an upstream side of an ion exchange resin column and a hydrogen peroxide injection apparatus in a further upstream side, reduce the amount of waste products caused by a chemical decontaminating agent where a mixed decontaminating agent for a composition trapped in a cation resin column and for a composition trapped in an anion exchange resin are used for the chemical decontaminating agent, selectively decompose the composition trapped in the cation resin column in an inlet side of a cleaning apparatus when radioactive nuclides in the decontaminating agent are cleansed using the cation resin column during decontamination, and decompose both compositions after completion of the decontamination. The chemical decontamination thus selectively decomposes the chemical decontaminating agent, which is a component of the load to the cation resin column.

Abstract: [Processes of reductive decontamination using an agent containing at least two kinds of components, and then decomposing the agent using an apparatus for decomposing at least two kinds of chemical substances in the agent, are employed in chemical decontamination.

Abstract: In a chemical decontamination method and a chemical decontaminating system for chemically decontaminating radioactive nuclides from a metallic material surface contaminated by the radioactive nuclides, the method comprise the processes of reductively decontaminating using a reductive decontaminating agent containing at least two kinds of components; and then decomposing the reductive decontaminating agent using a decomposing apparatus for decomposing at least two kinds of chemical substances in the reductive decontaminating agent.

Abstract: A process for preparing an oil sorbent excellent in oil sorptivity and water repellency and a device preparing the same are disclosed. The process for preparing an oil sorbent comprises mechanically fibrillating, or shredding and grinding lignocellulose material while substantially maintaining cell structure; and heating the resultant at a temperature of 250 to 450.degree. C. or 350 to 400.degree. C. for a predetermined period of time; followed by predetermined cooling to form an oil sorbent. The device for continuously preparing an oil sorbent having such a basic structure that three pipes with a "ellipse-shaped" cross-section each of which includes therein a screw type transferring means are arranged on top of one another, and the heating and the cooling are effected externally.
