  • Publication number: 20180148345
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dehydrogenation tank. An atomization spray is disposed at the center of the upper part of the dehydrogenation tank, and, flow stirring modules used for stirring a flowing solution are respectively disposed at the middle and the bottom of the dehydrogenation tank. Each of the two flow stirring modules includes at least two layers of flow stirring meshes. By means of disposing the atomizing spray and the flow stirring modules in the dehydrogenation tank, the TRO solution flowing into the dehydrogenation tank are fully stirred, so that hydrogen gas mixed with the TRO solution is able to diffuse out fully and rapidly, thereby increasing dehydrogenation efficiency as well as reducing volume of the dehydrogenation tank. In addition, the present invention also provides a ballast water treatment system having the dehydrogenation tank.

  • Publication number: 20180148151
    Abstract: An online antifouling ship ballast water treatment system includes a ballast water main pipeline, a ballast water branch pipeline, a dispensing pipeline, a filter on the ballast water main pipeline, an electrolysis unit on the ballast water branch pipeline, and a dispensing pump on the dispensing pipeline. Some of seawater introduced into the system is filtered by the filter and flows to the ballast water branch pipeline and the electrolysis unit, some of seawater electrolyzed by the electrolysis unit is reinjected to the filter through the dispensing pump and the dispensing pipeline after a ballast process is completed, and kept in the filter until a next ballast operation, so that growth and propagation of marine organisms in the filter can be inhibited by sodium hypochlorite contained in a TRO solution when a ballast pump stops working. The present invention also provides a ship ballast water treatment method.

  • Publication number: 20180108331
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for merging compressed access units according to compression rates and/or positions of the respective compressed access units. The method can include receiving a sequence of compressed access units corresponding to a sequence of raw access units partitioned from an image or a video frame and corresponding to a sequence of memory spaces in a frame buffer, determining a merged access unit including at least two consecutive compressed access units based on compression rates and/or positions of the sequence of compressed access units. The merged access unit is to be stored in the frame buffer with a reduced gap between the at least two consecutive compressed access units compared with storing the at least two consecutive compressed access units in corresponding memory spaces in the sequence of memory spaces.

  • Publication number: 20170338772
    Abstract: VLSI distributed LC resonant clock networks having reduced inductor dimensions as well as simplified decoupling capacitances that are obtained by including one or more compensation capacitors. A compensation capacitor can be added in parallel with a clock capacitance and/or in parallel with a clock inductor. The presence of a compensation capacitance reduces the overhead associated with the inductor and the decoupling capacitor. The compensation capacitor (s) can be selectively switched into the network to create scalable resonant frequencies.

  • Publication number: 20160234582
    Abstract: The present invention is related to redundancy within a passive optical network and may include a first optical line terminal (OLT), a second optical line terminal, a first optical networking terminal (ONT) including an optical port and at least one Ethernet port; and a first two-to-many passive optical splitter. In operation, the first ONT may be registered with the first OLT and the second OLT may have the transmit function of the first optical port turned off. The receive function of the first optical port on the second OLT may be turned on and may be listening to the communication between the first OLT and the first ONT. When the second OLT no longer receives a signal indicating that the first OLT is still registered with the first ONT, the second OLT may turn on the receive function of the first optical port and registers with the first ONT.

  • Patent number: 8587368
    Abstract: A method includes generating a first current, wherein the first current flows through a first resistor and a first bipolar transistor. A first end of the first resistor is serially connected to an emitter-collector path of the first bipolar transistor, and a second end of the resistor is connected to an input of an operational amplifier. A second current is generated to flow through a second resistor that is connected to the input of the operational amplifier. An emitter of a second bipolar transistor is connected to a base of the first bipolar transistor, wherein a base and a collector of the second bipolar transistor are connected to VSS. The first and the second currents are added to generate a third current, which is mirrored to generate a fourth current proportional to the third current. The fourth current is conducted through a third resistor to generate an output reference voltage.
