19 Feb 1997TL;DR: In this article, a multi-port valve is used to provide positive proof-of-delivery by detecting the angular position of a rotor relative to a stator in the valve, and unique codes are output from the proximity detectors to positively identify positioning of the rotor at the predetermined angular positions.
Abstract: A dispensing system for dispensing chemical products to a plurality of utilization points utilizes a multi-port valve to selectively deliver use dilutions from a mixing apparatus to selected utilization points. The multi-port valve utilizes a position sensor to provide positive proof-of-delivery by detecting the angular position of a rotor relative to a stator in the valve. The position sensor includes opposing annular arrangements of detectable elements and proximity detectors which rotate relative to one another about a common axis in response to rotation of the rotor such that detectable elements are oriented in proximity to a unique combination of proximity detectors at each of a plurality of predetermined angular positions. As a result, unique codes are output from the proximity detectors to positively identify positioning of the rotor at the predetermined angular positions.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified SWAT-landscape unit (LU) model based on a catena method that routes flow across three LUs (the divide, the hillslope and the valley) was applied in the floodplain of the Garonne River.
Abstract: Hydrological interaction between surface and subsurface water systems has a significant impact on water quality, ecosystems and biogeochemistry cycling of both systems. Distributed models have been developed to simulate this function, but they require detailed spatial inputs and extensive computation time. The soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model is a semi-distributed model that has been successfully applied around the world. However, it has not been able to simulate the two-way exchanges between surface water and groundwater. In this study, the SWAT-landscape unit (LU) model – based on a catena method that routes flow across three LUs (the divide, the hillslope and the valley) – was modified and applied in the floodplain of the Garonne River. The modified model was called SWAT-LUD. Darcy's equation was applied to simulate groundwater flow. The algorithm for surface water-level simulation during flooding periods was modified, and the influence of flooding on groundwater levels was added to the model. Chloride was chosen as a conservative tracer to test simulated water exchanges. The simulated water exchange quantity from SWAT-LUD was compared with the output of a two-dimensional distributed model, surface–subsurface water exchange model. The results showed that simulated groundwater levels in the LU adjoining the river matched the observed data very well. Additionally, SWAT-LUD model was able to reflect the actual water exchange between the river and the aquifer. It showed that river water discharge has a significant influence on the surface–groundwater exchanges. The main water flow direction in the river/groundwater interface was from groundwater to river; water that flowed in this direction accounted for 65% of the total exchanged water volume. The water mixing occurs mainly during high hydraulic periods. Flooded water was important for the surface–subsurface water exchange process; it accounted for 69% of total water that flowed from the river to the aquifer. The new module also provides the option of simulating pollution transfer occurring at the river/groundwater interface at the catchment scale.

27 Mar 2009TL;DR: In this paper, a sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid (SOCA) compound was proposed to be used as an antimicrobials and a bleaching agent.
Abstract: The present invention relates to novel sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid compounds, and methods for making and using them. The sulfoperoxycarboxylic compounds of the invention are storage stable, water soluble and have low to no odor. Further, the compounds of the present invention can be formed from non-petroleum based renewable materials. The compounds of the present invention can be used as antimicrobials, and bleaching agents. The compounds of the present invention are also suitable for use as coupling agents.

16 Apr 1996TL;DR: In this paper, a cleaning and sanitizing method for soiled solid surfaces, especially clean-in-place process facilities, is described which involves contacting the surfaces first with an aqueous ozone cleaning composition having a pH greater than 7.
Abstract: A cleaning and sanitizing method for soiled solid surfaces, especially clean-in-place process facilities, is described which involves contacting the surfaces first with an aqueous ozone cleaning composition having a pH greater than 7, wherein the ozone is generated by electrical discharge, then quenching the excess ozone and simultaneously sanitizing the surfaces by contact with an aqueous composition containing hydrogen peroxide, a C1-C10 peroxyaliphatic carboxylic acid or a mixture thereof.
