Apparatus and methods for enhanced electrocoagulation processing using enhanced membrane aeration are disclosed for effluent treatment. The apparatus has an enrichment means for establishing an ion rich air / gas stream and a membrane aerator for receiving the ionized air / gas stream and effluent to be treated. An ionized air / gas rich effluent feed stream flows out of the membrane aerator and is received at an electrocoagulation processing assembly for diffused ion enhanced electrocoagulation treatment.

Systems, methods and apparatus are provided through which in some embodiments a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system includes an asymmetrical magnet to generate an asymmetrical stray field that is particularly well suited to imaging limbs. In some other embodiments, a MRI system includes a conically-shaped casing that allows a patient to more readily access a field-of-view (FOV) in the interior of the MRI system during imaging of limbs. In some embodiments, a MRI system includes a stepped inner bore that has a stepped shape that focuses the FOV in an inner bore of the MRI system on a smaller area that is closer to where a patient accesses the FOV in the MRI that is particularly well suited to imaging a limb in the FOV.

Described in this application is a zero-backlash preload gear assembly. The assembly is specifically described for use with a positioning system in order to significantly reduce or eliminate mechanical error and improve tolerances. Furthermore, the assembly allows for infinite positioning of a work surface in order to facilitate improved efficiency of an automated system.

A system architecture for large concentrated solar power applications that increases heliostat utilization efficiency and land utilization efficiency is described. Embodiments of the invention include a large heliostat field in which are distributed a number of receiving locations, and wherein there is the assignment of heliostats to receiving locations is dynamic. Embodiments of the invention include dynamically targeting heliostats to receiving locations wherein the target determination process is performed frequently during operation and wherein such dynamic targeting can be utilized to various ends. Embodiments of the invention include configurations wherein cosine losses associated with heliostat pointing are significantly reduced, wherein heliostats may be closely packed without incurring substantial shadowing and blocking losses thereby significantly increasing land utilization, and wherein other benefits are realized.

A method of packaging a photonic component and a photonic component package are provided. The package comprises a package body a set of pins, wherein the orientation of the pins does not increase the footprint requirements of the package when the package is mounted onto a module. A semiconductor die is attached to and enclosed within the package. The die may be a MEMS and may include a movable mirror. An optical fiber is attached in a parallel orientation to a mounting surface of the module. The package is a low cost part with pins attached on a pinout side. An optional photonic inlet of the package is additionally coupled with one or more external photonic elements. The photonic inlet is positioned relative to a through hole to allow light to travel between the MEMS die and the external photonic element. The photonic inlet and one or more external photonic elements may be partially enclosed by a boot that provides increased mechanical stability when the package is coupled with a printed circuit board.

The invention provides a support beam, forepoling equipment and a support beam circulating laying method, and relates to the technical field of roadway forepoling. The support beam is applied to roadway forepoling and comprises a first beam body, a second beam body and a third beam body, the two ends of the second beam body are correspondingly hinged to one end of the first beam body and one end of the third beam body through a set of hinge pieces, and the first beam body and the third beam body can rotate towards the same side of the second beam body; and reset parts are arranged at the hinged position of the first beam body and the second beam body and the hinged position of the second beam body and the third beam body correspondingly, and the reset parts are used for driving the first beam body, the second beam body and the third beam body to rotate to the collinear position. The forepoling equipment comprises a forepoling device and the support beam. According to the support beam circulating laying method, the forepoling equipment is adopted for performing circulating laying on the support beam. When the support beam is applied to forepoling equipment, the forepoling device is simple in structure and small in occupied space, and the support beam is conveniently and rapidly laid in a circulating mode.
