    Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring a level of silicon dioxide in a liquid and removing the silicon dioxide using polishers is disclosed. In an embodiment, two polishers that absorb carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide, but which have a greater affinity for carbon dioxide, are placed in series along a conduit containing the liquid for use in an immersion lithographic apparatus. The upstream polisher absorbs carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide until it is saturated, at which point it desorbs the silicon dioxide in preference for the carbon dioxide. Silicon dioxide continues down the conduit and is absorbed by the downstream polisher. Once the upstream polisher is saturated with carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide present in the liquid flows downstream where it is absorbed by the downstream polisher. A sensor between the polishers senses the presence of carbon dioxide and initiates a request for the one or more of polishers to be cleaned or replaced.

The substituent or substituents which are bound to the amine nitrogens of the polymer composition can include a hydrophobic moiety and/or a quaternary amine-containing moiety. Suitable amine-containing monomers or repeat units include, but are not limited to, for example, vinylamine, allylamine, diallylamine, diallylmethylamine, and ethyleneimine, which are appropriately substituted, as described above.The hydrophilic nonamine-containing monomer can be, but is not limited to, for example, allyl alcohol, vinyl alcohol, ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, hydroxyethylacrylate, hydroxyethylmethacrylate, hydroxypropylacrylate, hydroxypropylmethacrylate, poly(propyleneglycol) monomethacrylate, poly(ethyleneglycol) monomethacrylate, acrylic acid, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide. Typically, the hydrophilic nonamine-containing monomer or repeat unit comprises from about 10 to about 90 mole percent of the polymer composition.

    Abstract: A process for extracting a fluorinated polymer which contains carboxylic ester functional groups with a liquid compound which is preferably a perchlorofluorocarbon having a boiling point in the range of 30.degree. to 125.degree. C. is described. Polymer so extracted can be fabricated into a membrane and hydrolyzed to ion exchange form to provide a membrane for electrolytic cells. When used as the membrane for a chloralkali cell, such membrane provides improved performance, e.g., a high level of current efficiency and low power consumption are maintained for an extended period of time when compared against a membrane of like construction fabricated from polymer which has not been so extracted.

    Abstract: A fluid treating apparatus and method are provided which employ finely subdivided surface active particles arranged in loose bed form and confined within a treating tank by means which prevent the escape of such particles but which permits fluid flow therethrough at a high rate with a minimum pressure drop. In an important embodiment, the apparatus and method of this invention are particularly directed to the treatment of water with fine mesh ion cation exchange resin particles of below 50 mesh size, and preferably 100 to 200 mesh or smaller, measured on a dry basis. This apparatus and method provides removal of polyvalent metal ions such as calcium and magnesium to soften the water and, unexpectedly, removal of chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, iron, including colloidal iron particles, bacteria and other taste and odor forming contaminants to an extent far superior than that of conventional water softening units even where such units are provided with special auxiliary treating devices such as, for example, activated carbon filters. In the described embodiment, the operation of all valves is completely hydraulic and regeneration is automatically provided when a predetermined quantity of water has been treated, however, important aspects of the present invention also find advantageous utility in fluid treating apparatus and methods wherein valve operation is manually, electromechanically, or otherwise regulated.
