PROCESS FOR THE ANAEROBIC DIGESTION OF LIQUID WASTES
MICROBIOLOGICAL METHOD FOR DISPOSING OF ORGANIC WASTE MATERIALS
Delporte Claude; Jacquart Jean-Claud FRANCE assigned to Degremont
Rueil Malmaison, Higa Teruo
An anaerobic digestion process for the removal of the organic matter contained in a liquid waste, notably raw water, subjects the waste to an acidogenesis stage and then to a methanogenesis stage. The waste, which has been subjected to the acidogenesis stage, is subjected to a stage of separation by settling, before the methanogenesis stage. At least part of the sludge separates during this intermediate stage. Part of the treated water is recycled to the acidogenesis stage.

Ginowan shi, Okinawa ken, JAPAN
Disclosed herein are a method for disposing of organic waste materials using microorganisms; methods for accelerating the growth of plants, for destroying or repelling insect pests, for improving the soil, of deodorization and for improving water quality, using the waste materials processed by the disposal method; and compositions for use in these methods. The microbiological method for disposing of an organic waste material comprises the step of bringing (i) an organic waste material into contact with (ii) at least 5 species of microorganisms, each being selected from each of 5 groups consisting of actinomycetes, phototrophic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, mold fungi and yeast, the microorganisms (a) being acid-fast, (b) capable of producing lactic acid, (c) producing no butyric acid, (d) being non-pathogenic and (e) having an antagonistic value of 50 or more.

Chalon,
The present invention concerns a process for manufacturing conductive diamond layers, in particular layers of diamond doped with boron which are obtained by chemical vapour deposition (CVD). The process of the invention consists of forming a layer of diamond doped with boron using amino-borane compounds. These boron compounds are of particular interest since they are non-toxic and easy to manipulate.
5591496 METHOD OF MANUFACTURING COMPOSITE SHEET MATERIALS Anderson Michael C; Heap Anthony; Crone Horst-Ditmar West Yorkshire, UNITED KINGDOM assigned to Linpac Plastics International Limited PCT No. PCT/US91/07956 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 13, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 13, 1993 PCT Filed Oct. 28, 1991. A method of making a composite sheet material in which at least one lamina of previously unused expanded polystyrene is bonded to a second lamina of recycled expanded polystyrene. The laminae are continuously formed from separate extruders and are merged promptly after extrusion. Heat is applied to the laminae just before they are merged.
METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR RAPID COMPOSTING WITH CLOSED AIR LOOP CIRCULATION FOR POSITIVE CONTROL Young Richard N; Irwin Thomas J Atlanta, GA, UNITED STATES assigned to DBS Manufacturing Inc A reaction vessel for biologically decomposing a material comprises a frame, an airtight housing rotatably mounted on the frame defining an enclosure therein, and a device for controlling environmental conditions within the enclosure so that biological decomposition of the material can occur at a controlled rate. Air is circulated through the enclosure in a closed loop so that air leaving the enclosure will be recirculated back into the enclosure. A computer controls the oxygen level of the air inside the enclosure, the humidity of the air inside the enclosure, the temperature of the air inside the enclosure, and the carbon dioxide level of the air inside the enclosure. The housing is disposed at an incline relative to the frame so that the material introduced into the enclosure proximal to the higher portion of the housing tends to flow toward the lower portion of the housing. A separating wall is disposed within the enclosure, forming therein a first chamber and a second chamber. A screw conveyor is provided for moving the material from the first chamber to the second chamber. The conveyor is secured to the housing so that as the material is moved from the first chamber to the second chamber the housing remains airtight.
