摘要： There is provided a process for treating industrial wastewater that substantially eliminates the generation of excess solids in the system requiring mechanical removal. The wastewater undergoes an equalization step wherein hydraulic flow is smoothed and the pH of the wastewater is adjusted to near neutral pH conditions. The equalized wastewater is then transferred to aeration tanks where the organic process wastes are absorbed, metabolized, or otherwise biodegraded by the microorganisms in the mixed liquor in the aeration tanks. After the aeration step, the wastewater is separated by gravity in a clarifying step to separate the wastewater into a liquid phase and a semi-solid phase. The clarified liquid phase is withdrawn from the clarifier and discharged, while the semi-solid phase is transferred either directly back to the aeration/biological treatment step, as recycle-activated sludge, or into a bioreactor as waste-activated sludge. In the bioreactor the semi-solid phase is subjected to active aeration. The aerated waste-activated sludge is then batch-recycled to the equalization tank discharging to the aeration step where it is mixed into newly introduced untreated wastewater and undergoes a new cycle of biological treatment. As a result of the indirect batch-recycling of bioreactor waste-activated sludge into the mixed liquor (biomass containing waste sludge) under aeration, which is also receiving recycle-activated sludge and enzymes, the excess solids generated in this process virtually eliminated.

摘要： An apparatus for providing register compatibility between integrated circuits having different register and interrupt configurations is designed to operate with software that was written for previous hardware. Versions of software written for previous hardware attempt non-native register accesses for which the integrated circuit is designed to emulate the non-native register set. Versions of software specifically written for the present hardware attempt native register accesses for which no emulation is necessary. In the preferred embodiment only one physical register set is included on the integrated circuit and a compatibility engine is used when a non-native register access is attempted. The compatibility engine is coupled between a bus interface unit and the physical register set and allows a user or system designer to address a register set of another integrated circuit having a different configuration than the physical register set. The compatibility engine converts the address and maps the data bits of the emulated register into registers within the physical register set. Alternatively, two sets of registers can be physically included on the integrated circuit. An interrupt compatibility circuit is also designed to operate in at least a first mode or a second mode. In the first mode the interrupt information is written to an appropriate register and then mapped into the appropriate bits of the physical register set. In the second mode the interrupt information is written directly to the appropriate register. In both the first and second modes, steering bits from the appropriate register are used to map system, management and wakeup interrupts to the appropriate interrupt pad where the interrupt request signal is then shaped.

摘要： A peripheral interface system and apparatus including a pair of integrated circuits, referred to as a system adapter and a socket controller, use a communication protocol, referred to as a windowed-interchip-communication protocol, to interface peripherals, such as PCMCIA cards or infrared devices, and other subsystems having different formats with a CPU system bus. The system adapter communicates to a hard disk drive subsystem using the ATA communication standards to interface an ATA hard disk drive with the CPU system bus. Communication between the system adapter and the socket controller, which communicates with PCMCIA peripheral cards and IR peripherals, is accomplished using the windowed-interchip-communication protocol which may share hardware resources with other communication protocols. Communication between the system adapter and the hard disk drive and between the system adapter and the socket controller may be provided on the same chain of a standard 40 signal ribbon cable. Alternatively communication between an expansion board and a socket controller may be performed across a cable separate from the hard disk drives having a different signal line format. The system adapter may be included within a single interface expansion board which can be connected to the motherboard and CPU system bus or it can be directly connected or soldered to the motherboard and communicate with the socket controller and ATA hard disk drives using one or more busses.

摘要： A method and arrangement for controlling input/output (I/O) operations in a computer system provides multiple PC card controllers but allows legacy software to be used. A PCI bus is coupled to a central processing unit, and an ISA bus is coupled to the PCI bus by a bridge. At least one PC card controller is coupled to the PCI bus and at least one other PC card controller is coupled to the ISA bus. Each PC card controller has at least one socket in which a device is connectable, each socket being separately addressable by the processor at an (I/O) address through the respect PC card controller. Each controller also has a socket pointer register, each socket pointer register being loadable with socket pointer information that uniquely identifies each socket of the controller among all of the sockets of the plurality of controllers in the computer system. Each controller also has an index register and a plurality of data registers, the index stored in the index register pointing to one of the data registers. The index registers of the PC card controllers are updated when the processor writes to an I/O address, without acknowledging the write on the PCI bus. This allows the writes to propagate through the system to lower levels, instead of being stopped by a subtractive decode device. To perform this, each PC card controller compares the socket pointer information with the updated index in the index register. When at least a portion of the socket pointer information matches at least a portion of the updated index, the PC card controller updates with write data the data register pointed to by the index register.

摘要： An individual serving food container is provided for housing individual servings of food products, such as pie slices and the like, which are generally triangular or wedge shaped and have an outwardly extending "crust" portion. The container includes a tray/cover combination having means for supporting the crust portions of such food product servings from collapsing when housed within the container. The rear wall of the tray has a transverse edge thereof remote from the bottom wall which extends rearwardly therefrom to define a platform adapted to support the outwardly extending crust portion of the wedge-shaped food serving contained in the housing cavity. The container is also provided with means facilitating removal of stored individual servings therefrom and guide means for facilitating proper alignment of locking elements disposed on the cover and tray so as to simplify the locking operation.
