Metered oxygen supply aids treatment of domestic sewage

Microbiological fixed-bed process was developed in which supplementary oxygen required by microbial species is supplied by electrochemical device. Rate of addition of oxygen to waste treatment process is controlled to maintain aerobic metabolism and prevent anaerobic metabolisms which produce odorous or toxic products.

The effects of solution treatment on the mechanical properties of age-hardened A-286 bar stock at elevated and cryogenic temperature

The mechanical properties are presented of solution treated and age hardened A-286 corrosion resistant steel bar stock. Material solution treated at 899 C or 982 C, each followed by an age hardening treatment of 718 C, was evaluated. Test specimens manufactured from 1.50 inch (3.81 cm) diameter bar stock were tested at temperatures from +649 C to -253 C. The test data indicated excellent tensile, yield, elongation and reduction-in-area properties at all testing temperatures for both solution treated and aged materials. Cryogenic temperature notched tensile, impact, and shear tests indicated excellent notch strength, ductility, and shear values. There was very little difference in the mechanical properties of the two solution treated and aged materials. The only exception was that the 962 C solution treated and aged material had superior stress rupture properties at 649 C.

Changes in some physical properties induced by vacuum heat treatment

A method is proposed for reducing or eliminating outgassing of materials by heat treating them in vacuum prior to use. This may be performed on the raw material prior to manufacturing and installation or after fabrication of parts. Processing of a fabricated part can be performed only on relatively small parts and on assemblies containing no components which are affected by the required temperatures and pressures. Processing conditions of temperature and time are dependent on the particular application and the materials involved. Silicone-coated fiber glass cloth was vacuum-heat treated for 100 hrs at 400 + or - 25 F at pressures of 0.001 torr or less. The materials were tested in terms of tensile strength and tear properties in both the smooth and several creased configurations. Data obtained on one side silicone coated fiber glass showed large reductions in these properties as a result of the vacuum-heat treatment. The problem was alleviated by coating both sides of the fiber glass.

On optimizing the treatment of exchange perturbations

A method using the zeroth plus first order wave functions, obtained by optimizing the basic equation used in exchange perturbation treatments, is utilized in an attempt to determine the exact energy and wave function in the exchange process. Attempts to determine the first order perturbation solution by optimizing the sum of the first and second order energies were unsuccessful.
