Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel process and method for treating nitrogen that is contained in an organic waste stream using aeration at a preferred predetermined mass loading in an aerobic volume followed by treatment in an anoxic/anaerobic volume. The present invention also includes the solid humus material produced from the treatment of an organic waste stream aeration at a predetermined loading in an aerobic volume followed by treatment in an anoxic/anaerobic volume and the removal of said humus solids.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a substantially odorless biologically mediated treatment process for solid and liquid organic wastes. The present invention also provides for a novel nutrient rich humus material produced from the biologically mediated treatment process. The bioconversion process of the present invention results from low electron acceptor concentrations and high quantities of microorganisms in a diverse microbial community.

Abstract: A method is described of providing dealer authorization information to a remote processing system. A local processing system receives information from a manufacturer for updating a database of authorized dealers. The local processing system then receives a validation request from the remote processing system via a network. In response to receiving the validation request, the local processing system queries the database and transmits information to the remote processing system, including an indication of whether a particular dealer is an authorized dealer for one or more manufacturers. The validation request is generated in response to the remote processing system's having identified a predetermined HTML tag in a dealer World Wide Web page. Capability to recognize the tag and transmit a validation request in response thereto is provided by a Web browser plug-in downloaded to the remote processing system. The local processing system may also include a number of order processing units for electronic commerce.

Abstract: An improved font resolution method is disclosed for a data processing system, which enables the translation of an originally defined font for a document, into available fonts in a local data processing system where the document is to be displayed or printed. The method allows for the selective substitution by a user of alternate Code Page Names and Character Set Names for fonts which may be available on a local data processing system.

Abstract: A protectively coated superalloy has improved oxidation, corrosion, and wear resistance at elevated temperatures. The protective coating is a MCrAlY type alloy having a carbon content of 0.6 to 11 percent and is characterized in a preferred embodiment by having a carbon bearing matrix containing metal carbides of 1-2 microns mean size and chromium carbides of less than 12 microns. The coating is preferredly produced by plasma spraying and heat treatment.

Abstract: A method of applying a wear resisting MCrAlY coating is comprised of plasma spraying a mixture of MCrAlY and Cr.sub.3 C.sub.2 powders to form a coating having both fine carbides and coarser Cr.sub.3 C.sub.2 carbides in an MCrAlY matrix. Heat treatment at 1080.degree. C. after coating bonds the substrate and coating and forms further fine carbides. The coating desirably consists of by weight percent 18-80 Cr, 1.2-29 Al, up to 4.8 Y, 0.6-11 C, balance selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co, Fe, or mixtures thereof.
