摘要:
In photographic processing apparatus for developing, bleaching-fixing and washing photographic materials, a predetermined quantity of fresh wash water is supplied into a washing tank every time a predetermined amount of the photographic materials have been washed. The fresh wash water is provided by deionizing city water and is reservoired in a replenisher tank. In order to detect a predetermined loss of the fresh wash water in the replenisher tank, a conductivity increasing material is dissolved in the fresh wash water in the replenisher tank when a predetermined quantity of the deionized water is supplied so as to electrically connect a pair of electrodes disposed at a predetermined depth of the replenisher tank. A sterilizer is mixed in the fresh wash water to prevent bacterial growth in the replenisher tank. The conductivity increasing material and the sterilizer are prepared as a predetermined dose of mixture necessary and sufficient for the predetermined quantity of deionized water supplied into the replenisher tank.

An apparatus for pollution control in treating the effluent employs an evaporation stage where the effluent solutions are heated to 150.degree. Fahrenheit. The resulting steam and vapors are then oxidized by photoysis and photolytic catayzed ozone before the steam and vapors are discharged through a rubber coated dryer duct. The apparatus is comprised of two main units, a lower evaporation sump unit and an upper photolysis and blower unit. The sump is manually filled through a port located in the top of the blower unit. The operator will then switch the main power switch to "ON" and activate the system. This includes activation of an ultraviolet lamp, blower and heat belts. The heat belts are fixed around the base of the sump.

The apparatus uses a combination of technologies for treatment of hazardous and nonhazardous liquid wastes. The first treatment step is an evaporation stage where the liquid wastes are heated. The resulting steam and vapors are then oxidized by photolysis and photolytic catalyzed ozone before they are condensed. The steam and vapors are then condensed and the condensate is passed through a column of activated carbon. The activated carbon absorbs any unoxidized Chemical Oxygen Demanding (COD) species and aids in the control of any odors which may be emitted in the evaporation stage.

An arrangement for developing latent images includes a mechanism for conveying an article which carries a latent image over a succession of containers which accommodate a developer, a washing fluid, a fixer and a washing fluid, respectively. A pressure chamber is arranged above each container and the article passes through the pressure chambers. A pump is associated with each pressure chamber and pumps the respective fluid therein for contact with the article. A sensing device located at an upstream end of the arrangement senses the length of the article and causes a quantity of fresh developer to be admitted into the container with the developer. Concomitantly, a corresponding amount of contaminated developer flows out of the container and into a collecting vessel. The sensing device activates a source of chemical neutralizing fluid and causes a quantity of the latter to be admitted into the collecting vessel for neutralizing the contaminated developer. The container with the fixing bath is connected with a chamber which is provided with a pair of electrodes and the sensing device is also effective for causing current to be supplied to the electrodes so as to permit regeneration of contaminated fixer. The sensing device is further operative for causing a quantity of fresh washing fluid to be admitted into the downstream washing bath, which latter is in communication with the upstream washing bath. The downstream washing bath is provided with an outflow conduit so that, when the level in the washing bath exceeds a predetermined level, contaminated washing fluid flows out of the downstream washing bath and into the same collecting vessel as the contaminated developer.
摘要:
An apparatus and method utilizing activated carbon to remove impurities from liquids comprises an adsorption column containing a plurality of stacked carbon containers. Each of the containers holds an activated carbon bed, has an opening above the level of the bed to permit introduction of oxygen, steam or other gas, and has means for permitting passage of liquid from the container. Liquid to be purified enters the top of the column, flows through the carbon beds in the containers and out of the column. A control module monitors the effectiveness of the column and generates signals to control the reactivation of the carbon by heating the carbon containers and passing steam into the individual containers.

摘要:
After silver has been recovered from a photographic waste solution, said waste solution is electrolytically purified by adding chloride ion and carbonate ion or chloride ion, carbonate ion and iodide or iodate ion to said waste solution under limited pH, temperature, anode current density and current concentration conditions.
摘要:
Silver is electrolytically recovered from photographic solutons, such as spent hypo, by feeding such a solution to a precollecting or measuring vessel where the solution collects until a predetermined volume has been received, at which time it is automatically dispensed, by a self-triggering siphon, into an electrolysis chamber of larger volume than the pre-collecting vessel and direct current is automatically turned on for a predetermined flow between an anode and a cathode in the chamber to plate out the silver on the cathode. An agitator, preferably a magnetic agitator, is also automatically energized to keep the solution homogeneously mixed during electrolysis, for maximum silver recovery efficiency.
