Abstract: A method of organic waste treatment includes separating contents of an organic waste stream into separated liquids and separated solids, and causing the liquids to flow to one or more pads. The pads become soaked and concentrated with the liquids. The pads that are concentrated with the liquids are converted into organomineral fertilizer by composting them or by treating them with an oxidant to create sterile odorless ash. Additionally or alternatively, the liquid can evaporate from the pads to leave solids on the pads.

Abstract: A method of organic waste treatment includes treating an organic waste stream that contains solid waste particles suspended in a liquid to cause the solid waste particles to settle in a settling tank, separating contents of the tank into a separated liquid phase and a separated solid phase, and treating the separated solid phase with an oxidant to create a sterile odorless ash.

Abstract: Negative-Working Lithographic Printing Plate Precursors can be provided with desired contrast coloration after imaging using a coloring fluid that includes a water-insoluble colorant that is soluble in a water-insoluble fatty alcohol. The coloring fluid provides an optical density change in the exposed regions of at least OD2 that is greater than the original optical density of those regions, OD1. The coloring fluid can be applied immediately after imaging and before processing, or it can be applied as part of the developer or processing solution, or it can be applied after processing. The coloring fluid can also be applied to imaged precursors that are designed for either off-press or on-press development.

Abstract: A development device (100) for printing plates (112) includes a straight transport unit (116) adapted to transport printing plates inside the development device in a straight transport path (116), an immersed transport unit (120) adapted to transport printing plates inside the development device in an immersed path (120), and a switching element (232, 244b) adapted to switch between the straight transport unit (116) and the immersed transport unit (120).

Abstract: Lithographic printing plates can be obtained by contacting infrared radiation-imaged negative-working lithographic printing plate precursors with a processing solution having a pH less than 9 and comprising a UV photoinitiator. After this processing, the lithographic printing plate is floodwise exposed with UV radiation. Providing a UV-photoinitiator in the processing solution followed by UV exposure can increase imaging sensitivity and printing plate run-length, and reduce print background.

Abstract: A color contrast image in imaged lithographic printing precursors can be obtained by contacting the imaged precursor with a coloration solution containing a colorless form of a photochromic compound. Residual amounts of this compound attached to the oleophilic surface of the imaged precursor can be changed to its colored form when exposed to UV light. The coloration solution can be an alkaline or acidic developer or an alkaline or acidic solution used separately after development. The coloration solution can also be a gum solution.
