601 results about "Decomposer" patented technology

Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, and in doing so, they carry out the natural process of decomposition. Like herbivores and predators, decomposers are heterotrophic, meaning that they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbon and nutrients for growth and development. While the terms decomposer and detritivore are often interchangeably used, detritivores must ingest and digest dead matter via internal processes while decomposers can directly absorb nutrients through chemical and biological processes hence breaking down matter without ingesting it. Thus, invertebrates such as earthworms, woodlice, and sea cucumbers are technically detritivores, not decomposers, since they must ingest nutrients and are unable to absorb them externally.

Fixed-rate block-based image compression with inferred pixel values

An image processing system includes an image encoder system and a image decoder system that are coupled together. The image encoder system includes a block decomposer and a block encoder that are coupled together. The block encoder includes a color quantizer and a bitmap construction module. The block decomposer breaks an original image into blocks. Each block is then processed by the block encoder. Specifically, the color quantizer selects some number of base points, or codewords, that serve as reference pixel values, such as colors, from which quantized pixel values are derived. The bitmap construction module then maps each pixel colors to one of the derived quantized colors. The codewords and bitmap are output as encoded image blocks. The decoder system includes a block decoder. The block decoder includes a block type detector, one or more decoder units, and an output selector. Using the codewords of the encoded data blocks, the comparator and the decoder units determine the quantized colors for the encoded image block and map each pixel to one of the quantized colors. The output selector outputs the appropriate color, which is ordered in an image composer with the other decoded blocks to output an image representative of the original image. A method for encoding an original image and for decoding the encoded image to generate a representation of the original image is also disclosed.

Pellet burning heating assembly

A portable pellet fired heating element for mounting to a grill or stove and comprising a gravity fed pellet holder, a unitary tubular structure having a burner, an air intake and an exhaust chute. Fuel may be supplied to the pellet holder by various supply means such as a conveyer, ramp, scooped, held in bulk in a hopper, and like pellet supply structures and methods. Fuel is fed to the air-cooled insulated burner area onto a decomposer grate, which defines the primary combustion area and which is partially open to the atmosphere for air intake. An adjustable high-pressure flow of gas or vapor is introduced to the primary exhaust chute below the decomposer grate to create a low pressure flow above the grate and which upon ignition, cause flames to be pulled into the pellet mass on the grate. In operation, air from the primary air intake maintains hot charcoal in the primary combustion area, and the secondary combustion area provides a steady flow of wood gas that mixes with a predetermined or adjustable amount of air supplied by the secondary air intake to maintain the flame. The super heated gasses and any ash are provided to the grill or stove by means of the exhaust chute. For cleaning purposes, an electrical/mechanical device may be provided to move the decomposer grate or to provide a sudden burst of high gas pressure.

Cutter exploitation method of seabed natural gas hydrates

The invention provides a cutter exploitation method of seabed natural gas hydrates. The method employs a seabed exploitation vehicle, a sea level decomposition and storage system, and a waterpower conveying system for connecting the seabed exploitation vehicle as well as the sea level decomposition and storage system. The seabed exploitation vehicle comprises a reamer, a reamer arm, a crawler type running gear as well as a power and control system, and the like, and is used for cutting and fragmenting the seabed natural gas hydrate. The waterpower conveying system comprises an auxiliary slurry pump, a conveying flexible pipe, a buoyancy ball, a main slurry pump, a conveying hard tube, and the like, and the system is used for conveying the natural gas hydrates which is fragmented by the exploitation vehicle to the sea level decomposition and storage system. The decomposition and storage system comprises a decomposer, a storage container, a mine tailing pipe, and the like, and is used for decomposing and separating the natural gas hydrates which are conveyed by the conveying system and collecting the natural gas hydrates in the storage container, and the separated seabed deposits and other refuses are discharged to the seabed. The cutter exploitation method of seabed natural gas hydrates has high production efficiency and controllable exploitation process, 'air bag' and the like are not needed to construct, and the method has good application prospects.

Direct sample introduction type method and instrument for simultaneously measuring mercury and cadmium

The invention relates to a direct sample introduction type method and a direct sample introduction type instrument for simultaneously measuring mercury and cadmium, which do not need to digest a sample. The direct sample introduction type method for simultaneously measuring mercury and cadmium comprises the steps of heating a sample in an aerobic environment, controlling the temperature in the scope from 120 DEG C to 500 DEG C, and separating most Hg and a decomposer out from the sample; loading Hg (mercury) and the decomposer into a catalytic furnace by an air flow to be further decomposed, absorbing Hg with Au, and keeping Cd (cadmium) be in the sample; putting the processed sample into a cracking furnace to be further thermally decomposed, and vaporizing Cd and residual H in the sample at a high temperature; loading the vaporized Cd and residual Hg into a Cd atom trap by argon, selectively trapping the Cd by a tungsten filament, and absorbing the residual Hg by a Hg trap; and heating the tungsten filament or a molybdenum filament and gold amalgamation in the argon and hydrogen gas to release Cd and Hg, and carrying Cd and Hg into an atomic fluorescence spectrometer by the argon and the hydrogen. On the basis of realizing the function of simultaneously measuring Hg and Cd, the direct sample introduction type method and direct sample introduction type instrument for simultaneously measuring mercury and cadmium have the advantages that the structure of the entire measurement instrument is simplified so as to miniaturize the instrument, so that the instrument can conveniently meet the requirements of the conventional analysis and emergencies, and can be carried to the field by a vehicle. Moreover, the direct sample introduction type method and the direct sample introduction type instrument for simultaneously measuring mercury and cadmium have application prospect in the field detection.

Method and device system for recovering nitric acid through pyrolyzing nitrate

The invention discloses a method for recovering nitric acid by pyrolyzing nitrate. The method comprises the following steps: (1) conveying the nitrate into at least two preheaters, heating the nitrateto firstly liquefy the nitrate, and then heating the nitrate to a temperature less than decomposition temperature in order to obtain a nitrate hot fluid; (2) conveying the nitrate hot fluid into a decomposer, and heating the nitrate hot fluid with a high temperature gas to maintain the internal temperature of the decomposer at 500-800 DEG C in order to decompose the nitrate into a mixed gas and asolid powder; and (3) separating mixed gas and the solid powder, conveying a part of the mixed gas into a nitric acid recovery tank, heating the remaining mixed gas to 500-800 DEG C, and then returning the heated remaining mixed gas into the decomposer to heat the nitrate hot fluid in order to thermally decompose the nitrate hot fluid. The method for recovering nitric acid has the advantages of less corrosion damages to devices, no introduction of other impurity components and no interference in the heating process, good decomposition speed and decomposition rate of the nitrate, and high recycling rate of the nitric acid.
