Abstract

A vehicle vibration control system includes: a buffer mechanism that is disposed between a wheel and a vehicle body and capable of adjusting buffer performance as a function of reducing vibration input to the vehicle body from the wheel; a weight detection unit that detects the weight of the vehicle body; a traveling position detection unit that detects the traveling position of the vehicle body; and a control device that controls the buffer performance of the buffer mechanism. The control device acquires a driving pattern in which the traveling position of the vehicle body and the buffer performance were set, on the basis of the weight of the vehicle body, and controls the buffer performance of the buffer mechanism on the basis of the acquired driving pattern and a result detected in the traveling position detection unit.

Abstract

Provided are a method and system for recovering an acidic gas whereby metal ions such as iron ion, a heavy metal ion, etc. in an amine absorbing solution can be quantified within a short period of time at a high accuracy and a factor which enhances the corrosive properties of the amine absorbing solution can be removed at an early stage. The method for recovering an acidic gas comprises a step for gas/liquid contacting a gas to be treated with an amine absorbing solution and thus allowing the absorbing solution to absorb an acidic gas to thereby remove the acidic gas from the gas to be treated, a step for diffusing the gas from the absorbing solution having absorbed the acidic gas to thereby regenerate the absorbing solution and, at the same time, recover the diffused gas, and an analysis step for calculating the iron ion and/or heavy metal ion concentrations in the absorbing solution, wherein the analysis step comprises: a step for controlling the pH of the collected absorbing solution until the ions are adsorbed to a chelate resin; a step for passing the absorbing solution through the resin and thus allowing the resin to adsorb the ions in the absorbing solution; a step for passing the regenerated acidic solution through the resin having adsorbed the ions and thus desorbing the ions and, at the same time, regenerating the resin to thereby give an ion-containing sample; and a step for quantifying the ions in the sample and calculating the concentrations of the ions in the collected absorbing solution on the basis of the quantification results.

Abstract

A reverse osmosis membrane plant includes: a reverse osmosis membrane device 15 to which an inflow water line L1 for introducing influent water 11 is connected and which has a reverse osmosis membrane 14 for obtaining permeated water 12 obtained by removing a salt from the influent water 11 and concentrated water 13 in which the salt in the inflow water 11 is concentrated; a branch line L11 branching from the influent line L1 and branching a part of the influent water 11 as inspection water 21; an inspection container 22 to which the branch line L11 is connected and which causes the inspection water 21 to pass therethrough; at least one inspection carrier 23 which is accommodated in the inspection container 22, to which a biofilm derived from the inspection water 21 adheres, and which is made of a material having adhesiveness to the biofilm higher than that of the material of the reverse osmosis membrane 14; and a biofilm inspection device which stops the passage of the inspection water 21 to the inspection container 22 and which inspects the amount of the biofilm adhered to the inspection carrier 23.

Abstract

A track includes a travel path including a travel face with which travel wheels of a vehicle come into contact while rolling. The travel path includes a plurality of travel path forming units that are arranged to be adjacent to each other in a travel direction of the vehicle and of which each includes a unit travel face forming part of the travel face and a positioning unit that fixes a relative position between travel path forming units adjacent to each other.

Abstract

An exhaust gas treatment device comprises: a flue gas desulfurization unit 13 that emits desulfurization wastewater 12 containing sulfate ions; a membrane treatment unit 16 that has a separation membrane 16a that separates a separated liquid 12A, resulting from separating solids and liquid from the desulfurization wastewater 12, into permeated water 14 in which the sulfate ion is reduced and concentrated water 15 in which the sulfate ion is concentrated; a forward osmosis membrane device 19 that has a supply solution accommodation unit 17 to accommodate, as a supply solution 14A, the permeated water 14, a drive solution accommodation unit 18 to accommodate, as a drive solution 15A, the concentrated water 15 having a higher osmotic pressure than the permeated water 14, and a water permselective forward osmosis membrane 19a disposed between the supply solution accommodation unit 17 and the drive solution accommodation unit 18; a diluted drive solution return line L4 that returns, as a desulfurization treatment liquid 11, a diluted drive solution 15B, which is diluted by water being transferred to the drive solution 15A side by way of forward osmosis, to the flue gas desulfurization unit 13 side; and a non-wastewater processing unit 21 that transmits water from the supply solution 14A by way of forward osmosis and does not drain a concentrated supply solution 14B.
