Abstract:
Harmful constituents are removed from solid hazardous waste material by heating the waste in the presence of a continuous flow of oxygen until the waste material becomes an agitated molten aggregate and generates effluvia. The effluvia is conducted through a high temperature zone to destroy organic and other harmful constituents. The effluvia is further processed to achieve acceptable environmental quality. The effluvia processing includes a dual reburn/heat exchanger compartment. The generated molten aggregate is thoroughly mixed and hardens into a ceramic-like aggregate which is environmentally safe.
Abstract:
A routing module applies a plurality of routing rules simultaneously to determine routing for a Fibre Channel frame. Each rule independently determines whether the rule applies to the frame as well as a routing result for the frame. The routing result includes a port address, a zoning indicator, and a priority designation that can be used to route the frame over a virtual channel in an interswitch link. A selector chooses between the results returned by the rules. A component receives routing results specifying an ISL group and selects a physical ISL for the frame. An in-band priority determined by the content of the frame header can also be used in place of the priority designation in the routing result.
Abstract:
A Fibre Channel switch is presented that tracks the congestion status of destination ports in an XOFF mask at each input. A mapping is maintained between virtual channels on an ISL and the destination ports to allow changes in the XOFF mask to trigger a primitive to an upstream port that provides virtual channel flow control. The XOFF mask is also used to avoid sending frames to a congested port. Instead, these frames are stored on a single deferred queue and later processed in a manner designed to maintain frame ordering. A routing system is provided that applies multiple routing rules in parallel to perform line speed routing. The preferred switch fabric is cell based, with techniques used to manage path maintenance for variable length frames and to adapt to varying transmission rates in the system. Finally, the switch allows data and microprocessor communication to share the same crossbar network.

Abstract:
A data transformation and exchange server receives an input data stream from one or more application servers and/or computing devices. The data stream includes a plurality of input records and each input record can be in a different input protocol and/or character encoding. The transformation and exchange server determines each input record in the input data stream based on one or more boundary points and determines a template from a plurality of templates based on the input record. The transformation and exchange server transforms the input record into an output record based on the template and communicates the output record via an output data stream.
Abstract:
Apparatus and a process are provided for converting and/or removing harmful constituents from solid hazardous or other undesirable waste material by heating the waste in a reactor in the presence of a continuous flow of oxygen and waste metals, wherein the waste material becomes a molten metal oxide bath which when solidified, has a spinel structure to chemically bond harmful constituents within the spinel structure by crystal chemical substitution. The resulting metal oxides are environmentally acceptable. A substantially gaseous effluent which may contain particulate material is also generated. The effluent is conducted through a high temperature zone to destroy organic and other harmful constituents influenced by temperature and dwell time. The effluent is further processed through an emissions treatment system to achieve acceptable environmental quality.
