The dual flush toilet system (120) can perform a full or a partial flush operation through controlling the volumes of the water used to flush the wastes by selectively limiting the maximum travels of the flush valve (156), applying a downward load to forcibly push the flush valve (156) down to close the discharge opening (159), using an electronic control device (1020) to control the duration of flushing, or utilizing the differences of the physical properties of air and water flowing through different sizes of holes at different elevations on biased rotations of the flapper valve (1130) to control the duration of the flapper valve (1130) in an open position.

An objective of the invention is to eliminate the need of a frequent dust waste by the user and to provide efficient device for wasting the dust that has been collected in the robot cleaner. The invention provides a robot cleaner capable of discharging dust out to a dust discharge station, wherein the robot cleaner is capable of moving autonomously to collect dust, the robot cleaner comprising: a dust container for storing dust; a dust inlet for collecting dust into the dust container; and an opening and closing mechanism of the dust container, provided at a bottom surface of the robot cleaner, for discharging dust collected in the dust container.

Disclosed is a system and method for treating domestic and industrial biological waste using diffusers to force circulation and aerate a treatment lagoon. Several lagoons may be used in series to treat raw waste and different variations may be employed to stepwise process the waste. A blend of aerobic and anaerobic microbes is chosen to remove undesired species initially present in the waste or later formed therein, as well as to process the waste itself, depending on the nature of the waste. Aeration with slightly ozonated or oxygenated air facilitates rapid and complete processing of large amounts of waste.

The invention is directed toward a high performance clay-based animal litter that is comprised of a clay-based liquid-absorbing material, and at least one filler coated with at least one clumping agent. The particle size of the liquid-absorbing material is small and provides the litter with a “sandy” appearance. The high performance litter is found to be surprisingly effective in containing odors and reducing tracking and dusting. It does not contain foaming agents and / or acids to trigger foaming, and does not utilize foams to block odors.

A high concentration central receiver system and method provides improved reflectors and a unique heat removal system. The central receiver has a plurality of interconnected reflectors coupled to a tower structure at a predetermined height above ground for reflecting solar radiation. A plurality of concentrators are disposed between the reflectors and the ground such that the concentrators receive reflective solar radiation from the reflectors. The central receiver system further includes a heat removal system for removing heat from the reflectors and an area immediately adjacent the concentrators. Each reflector includes a mirror, a facet, and an adhesive compound. The adhesive compound is disposed between the mirror and the facet such that the mirror is fixed to the facet under a compressive stress.

A process for the biological treatment of wastewater in which the performance of a conventional activated sludge system is improved by adding an aerobic granular biomass system in a hybrid parallel process configuration. Waste biomass and suspended material from the aerobic granular biomass system is introduced into the conventional activated sludge system for this purpose. In the hybrid process configuration the advantages of both systems are combined to produce new advantages, while drawbacks of the individual systems are reduced to great extent.

The present discloses a waste screening apparatus comprising: a main body; a waste screener vertically and tiltedly disposed in the main body to screen wastes in the input water and to allow waste-removed water to be discharged through water discharge holes defined in both side faces of the main body respectively, wherein the waste screener vertically circulates in a conveyor manner, wherein the input water is input to a front, rear and bottom of the waste screener; wherein the main body includes: both side walls having the water discharge holes defined therein respectively to allow waste-removed water to be discharged out from the waste screener therethrough; and a rear blocking wall disposed at a rear of the waste screener to be spaced from the waste screener, wherein the input water passes through front and rear portions of the waste screener with wastes being removed from the input water, and, then, is discharged out through the water discharge holes defined in the both side walls respectively.

The invention discloses a method and apparatus for allocating bearer resources, and relates to LTE system in the communication field. The method comprises: when a network side receives a bearer resource allocation request initiated by a user, if the number of currently activated EPS bearers has reached or exceeded a set upper limit, the network side searching the currently activated EPS bearers according to a QCI carried in the bearer resource allocation request, and if an EPS bearer corresponding to a QCI consistent with the QCI carried in the bearer resource allocation request is found, performing a proprietary bearer modification operation on the found EPS bearer to respond to the bearer resource allocation request.
