This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 08/193,090, filed Mar. 23, 1993, now abandoned, which is a 371 of PCT/DK91/00212, filed Jul. 18, 1991.
The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for treating and separating emulsified liquids. Thus, the invention relates to cleaning and separating of emulsified liquids, especially cooling/lubricating oil emulsions, degreasing water, oil-containing waste water, waste water from laundries, from food production, solvents and the like. The method involves vapor compression wherein emulsified liquids in a sump are heated to a temperature level just below the boiling point of the liquid to be distilled, and in which the vapors which are produced at a first side of a heat exchanger and in the sump are compressed in a compressor, whereby the temperature is increased, and which compressor leads the so-heated vapors into the second side of the heat exchanger in which they are cooled and condensed, and in which the heat released by the condensation is transferred to the emulsified liquid at the first side of the heat exchanger so that the liquid to be distilled is evaporated, and wherein the level for this temperature range is determined on the basis of the desired distillate. The separation of the specific substances and water or solvents is often required due to recycling of the water and/or for reducing the costs of transportation and destruction of waste water.
Industry uses various solvents, e.g., for degreasing and cleaning. In addition, the engineering industry uses cooling/lubrication oils mixed with water. These often enter into a heavy emulsification with the water, which means that the emulsified liquid is very difficult to separate. When the agent for degreasing, cleaning, cooling and lubricating has been used a number of times, it becomes saturated with dirt, heavy metals, moisture, and other impurities. Therefore, a concentration or a destruction of the agent in question is required.
Usually the concentration of solvents is performed by means of a simple boiling, followed by a subsequent cooling, typically by using water as cooling agent. This method is disadvantageous as it is energy consuming.
In recent years the concentration of cooling/lubricating oil emulsifications has been impeded because softeners are added to the cooling/lubricating agents, thus the oils emulsify heavily with water. Consequently, a subsequent concentration is very difficult.
Besides boiling, a chemical method for separating emulsified liquids is known. However, chemical separation is an expensive method requiring an exact adaption of a demulsifying agent, and usually it will only be economical at concentrations of polluting liquids in the main liquid lower than 1%.
Yet another method for concentration of solvents is known, viz. the so-called ultra filtration, in which the specific elements are separated by filtration. This process is also expensive, and moreover problems as to clogging of the specific filters arise, and consequently the method is subjected to uncertainty and requires a demand for frequent supervision.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,698,136 discloses a method corresponding to the above-described method wherein for continuous cleaning of water containing salt, hydrocarbons and Fe++, mechanical vapor compression is used. According to this patent, the liquid to be cleaned is initially subjected to a mechanical cleaning in the form of gravitation separation. This gravitational separation however, cannot separate stabilized emulsions. And if the liquid emerging from the mechanical cleaning step is a stabilized emulsion, the process described cannot provide an efficient cleaning and separation.
As mentioned above, the principle used is referred to as mechanical vapor compression, and it is disclosed in Danish Patent Nos. 68,529 and 78,060 filed by Mr. Rolf Andersen. It has been used for treating radioactive waste water, for producing drinking water out of sea water, as well as for concentrating brine, exclusively for use in very large complicated systems.
It is the object of the present invention to remedy the disadvantages associated with the known processes and to provide a method in which the separation is established by means of a boiling process and a subsequent cooling and in some cases by means of gravitational separation, and by subsequent cooling using a minimum of energy.
According to the present invention this object is achieved by a method of the type described above but which is characterized in that the temperature difference between the evaporation and the condensation is kept within a narrow temperature range of about 0.5-12° C., that the temperature level of the emulsified liquids is controlled by a thermostat in combination with a pressure switch, which thermostat is filled with a mixture of vapor and liquid identical with the desired distillate. The temperature difference is maintained at about 0.5-3° C. for treating aqueous liquids and about 1-12° C. and preferably 1-6° C. for treating solvent emulsions. The corresponding pressure ranges are about 20-120 mbar for treating aqueous liquids and 50-200 mbar for treating solvent emulsions.
Depending on the boiling point of the specific elements in the polluted liquid, the pressure and the temperature are regulated in the evaporation chamber. The polluted liquid is heated by means of the heating element, e.g., to 100° C., and this temperature is maintained by pre-heating the liquid in a heat exchanger and by adding extra heat--if necessary--by means of the heating element. A very precise controlling of the temperature level is obtained. Since the temperature depends on the pressure, a controlling of the level is quicker by use of the pressure switch, which reacts promptly to changes in the pressure, and thus changes in the temperature.
Heating in the sump may be provided by means of an electric heating element, and the heat exchanger used may preferably be a tube or plate heat exchanger of which the first side and the second side are connected to the compressor, ensuring the transfer of the vapor and the pressure increase. The emulsified liquid is transferred from an external source to the sump. This may, e.g., take place via a heat exchanger. From the sump the emulsified liquid is pumped up into the top of the tube heat exchanger, from which it can flow down through the tube heat exchanger as a liquid film, achieving an evaporation. In some cases, during the transfer from the sump to the top of the tube heat exchanger, a partial flow can be led into a gravitation separator containing a float able to float on one of the liquids but not on the other, e.g., on water but not on oil. This float controls a solenoid valve leading the partial flow back to the system after having drawn off the separated liquid, e.g., oil from the top of the gravitation separator. This separation process may be very fast due to the high temperature of the liquid and the corresponding low viscosity of oil. When the emulsified liquid is concentrated due to the evaporation, it becomes unstable which makes it possible to effect the gravitational separation. Also, the fact that the liquid is provided at a raised temperature level is important. E.g., lubricating oils are provided in which the components have identical density at a working temperature at a level of approximately 20-30° C. By raising the temperature a difference is obtained in the density of the components. This difference and the fact that the emulsion has become unstable is very important in order to have the efficient gravitational separation.
A supervision of the level of the condensed liquid may preferably be made in the evaporation chamber. Also, the measurement of the pressure and the temperature of the condensed liquid is made in the evaporation chamber with a view to control the progress of the procedure.
The condensed liquid can be led through a coalescer before it is drained out. This ensures that any oils transferred with the vapor are separated. Furthermore, the apparatus may comprise a density metering device that releases a small amount of the concentrated waste water if the ion concentration and the corresponding density become too high, causing increased boiling temperature.
The method will preferably be effected in a unit provided in an insulated chamber.
The circulation pump transfers the heated liquid up into the uppermost part of the evaporation chamber so that it flows down into the tube heat exchanger on the inner side of the tubes as a liquid film. By means of the compressor the pressure is increased, and hereby the vapor is supplied with energy in the form of pressure and heat. The latter causes an energy flow in the tube heat exchanger and provides an evaporation on the inner side of the tubes. Now the energy circle is complete.
Keeping the evaporation temperature difference and the condensation temperature within a very narrow range, e.g., 100-102° C., substances with a lower boiling point will not condense but will be vented in the vapor phase and condensed later in a condensation container from which it may be drawn off as a liquid for destruction or recycling.
Substances with a higher boiling point and solid particles will not evaporate. They remain in the liquid in the sump. When reaching a predetermined level of concentration, a draw-off is effected. Alternatively, such substances may be separated by gravitation separation and become almost completely concentrated. Concentration of the waste water takes place continuously in the sump.
It is important to keep the narrow temperature range in order to minimize energy consumption. The ion concentration in the waste water may effect the condensing temperature. Thus the density may be monitored by means of a density-metering device. Through a solenoid valve in the sump, it is possible to release a small amount of the concentrated waste water, thereby regulating the ion concentration and thereby keeping the evaporation and condensing temperature within a required range.
A method according to the present invention provides a safe separation of liquids in a distillate and undesired liquids and solid substances. It is also a very energy-saving method, as the efficiencies will be extremely high, up to 20-80 depending on the capacity. With the power factors mentioned, the price for treating 1 ton of polluted waste water typically ranges from DKK 2.50 to DKK 10.00.
The method according to the present invention may be effected with an apparatus of a very simple design and suited for use in the industry where the demands for simple and easy-to-service constructions are large as well as the investment costs area kept to a minimum level.
Besides, the method may be used for separating substances with different boiling points within a very narrow temperature range, as the present technology ensures that the evaporation and the subsequent condensation is effected within a very narrow temperature range, typically ranging from 1-2° C. Thus, substances with higher boiling points in the evaporation phase will not evaporate and at the subsequent condensation, substances with lower boiling points will not condense and may be blown off separately, and in this way they are separated.
When combining the vapor compression principle with the gravitation separation principle, it is possible to obtain an optimal separation and a fast process at the relatively high temperature and the corresponding low viscosity of oil.
The invention also relates to an apparatus for use in the above-mentioned method. The apparatus operates according to the vapor compression principle, optionally combined with a gravitation separation, and of the type which comprises means for boiling the emulsified liquid, means for cooling and condensing the vapors produced, which boiling and condensing means are constituted by a heat exchanger placed in an evaporation tank including a top and a sump connected to a pipe including a circulation pump and in which heat exchanger the evaporation and condensation take place. The condensed liquid is collected in the bottom of the evaporation tank, while the vapor is driven from the evaporation side, the first side, of the heat exchanger to the condensation side, the second side, by means of a compressor delivering a certain amount of energy to the vapor. The compressor and a heating element are controlled according to signals from pressure switches measuring the pressure in the evaporation tank and in the sump and according to signals from a thermostat connected to the sump and filled with a mixture of vapor and liquid identical with the desired distillate, a gravitation separator is connected to a branching of the pipe connecting the sump and the top of the evaporation tank just after the circulation pump, and the sump and the evaporation tank are supplied with draining-off means.
The apparatus may be equipped with a gravitation separator connected to a branching of the pipe connecting the sump and the top of the evaporation chamber and provided for concentration of a partial flow. The apparatus may also comprise a coalescer connected to the distillate outlet from the evaporation chamber.
Furthermore, a density regulator can be included to control the ion concentration in order to keep the boiling range within certain limits.
This apparatus, which preferably comprises a vertical tube heat exchanger and which preferably is placed in an insulated chamber, may be produced as a compact unit in which the method can be practiced in order to obtain the desired energy saving.
In a special compact version the apparatus can be designed with the evaporator chamber and compressor as an integrated unit. This is especially useful in apparatus with smaller capacities.
The invention will now be further explained with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the apparatus according to the invention,
FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the apparatus according to the invention with a humidity-drying filter,
FIG. 3 illustrates the lowermost part of the evaporation tank illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2,
FIG. 4 is a schematic view of a further embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention with a gravitation separator and a density regulator, and
FIG. 5 is a schematic view of the apparatus according to the invention with an evaporator and a compressor as an integrated unit.
The three embodiments illustrated have much in common and accordingly, identical or corresponding elements are designated with identical reference numbers in the different figures.
The apparatus illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises an evaporation tank 1, consisting of an outer shell 2, a cover 16, and a sump 3. These three parts are connected by flexible bands 14 and 15. In the shell 2 a tube heat exchanger 4 is placed consisting of vertically placed tubes 40 with a diameter of 6-25 mm welded onto an upper cover plate 5 and a lower cover plate 6. The tubes 40 extend about 50 mm through the upper cover plate 5, ensuring a correct and even distribution of a polluted liquid 41 to be treated (explained below).
The cover 16 is provided with a distribution ring 17. This distribution ring ensures that the polluted liquid 41 pumped from the sump 3 by means of the circulation pump 29 is evenly distributed to all the tubes 40.
The liquid 41 is fed from the sump 3 by means of a circulation pump 20 via a heat exchanger 18. In front of the circulation pump 20 a stop valve 21 is placed preventing reflux during standstill-periods.
The polluted liquid 41 is elevated to, e.g., 100° C.--in case of liquids with water as main element--by means of an electrical heating element 25. The temperature of the liquid 41 is controlled and supervised by means of a thermostat 26. The pressure in the evaporation tank 1 is controlled and supervised by a pressure switch 33.
The thermostat 26 and the pressure switches 28 and 33 are specially designed with a large diaphragm in order to meter very small differences. This is necessary in order to ensure a correct control of the boiling point and the corresponding vapor pressure for a distillate 44 in question. The interior of the thermostat 26 is filled with a reference liquid identical with the distillate 44. For example, with water to be distilled, the reference liquid is also water. The pressure switches 28 and 33 are designed so that an automatic adjustment takes place in case the atmospheric pressure changes. This is necessary in order to ensure a registration and adjustment of the correct vapor pressure during evaporation. In the sump 3 a conductivity meter 43 is placed supervising the content of ions in the liquid 41. In case the concentration is too high, a solenoid valve 42 is opened for draining off the concentrated liquid 41 from the bottom of the sump 3.
If the liquid 41 contains large amounts of oil and oily liquids lighter than the distillate 44, these will float on the surface of the liquid 41. Draining off this oil is controlled at the level controller 27 and the solenoid valve 19.
The mode of operation and the special construction of the sump 3 in this connection are illustrated in FIG. 3 and will be described later.
In the evaporation tank 1 a level controller 30 is placed to supervise and to secure the draining off of the distillate 44 via a solenoid valve 39 and the heat exchanger 18. The heat exchanger 18 ensures that the heat removed by draining off the distillate 44 is transferred to the liquid 41 which is led into the sump 3, so that the heating element 25 must supply a minimum of power only.
When deactivating the apparatus and switching off the power, the solenoid valve 39 ensures that atmospheric air is drawn into the evaporation tank 1 and thus a pressure compensation is established. In operation the temperature in the evaporation tank 1 may be above 100° C., and during the cooling in connection with a deactivating of the apparatus, a vacuum could arise in the evaporation tank 1, so that it might collapse and be damaged.
The evaporation tank 1 is provided with the pressure switch 33 supervising the pressure and ensuring the blowing-off of the non-condensable gases via a solenoid valve 32 to a condensation chamber 23, in which the gas condensates due to a low temperature. The condensation chamber 23 is provided with a throttle valve 24 which on one hand empties non-condensable gases from the condensation chamber 23 and, on the other hand, ensures a continuous emptying of non-condensable gases from the evaporation tank 1 via a throttle valve 31. An emptying of the condensation chamber 23 is effected by means of a manual stop valve 22.
A mechanical safety valve 34 is mounted in the evaporation chamber 1 for extra security. A vapor compressor 36 driven by an electric motor 37 via a shaft 45 is connected to the sump 3. In order to prevent oil drops from being carried along from the sump 3 through the vapor compressor 36, a drop catch 38 is arranged in from the inlet of the vapor compressor 36.
The outlet of the vapor compressor 36 is connected to the upper part of the shell 2 connected to the outer part of the tube heat exchanger 4. The evaporation tank 1 with the vapor compressor 36, control means, and solenoid valves are encapsulated in an insulated cabinet 35 in order to maintain the correct working temperature.
In principle the apparatus illustrated in FIG. 2 is identical with the apparatus shown in FIG. 1, however, with the exception that a humidity-drying filter 47 is placed between the vapor compressor 36 and the drop catch 38 in order to absorb humidity when the apparatus is used for treating, e.g., solvents or refrigerants where the demands to the level of residual moisture are extremely high.
In this version a standard tube size as shell 2 is used and a larger dimension for the tubes 40 as compared to tubes 40 of FIG. 1 are used, whereby a reduction in the manufacturing costs is obtained, and simultaneously the demands for an increased working pressure may be met.
This version is also suitable for small capacities of 5-10 l/h for liquids with water as the main element.
FIG. 3 illustrates the sump 3 being so embodied that separation of oil from the liquid is optimized.
When the level controller 27 with a float 46 indicates low level of liquid, liquid 41 is added until an upper level is reached. Simultaneously, with the initial filling the solenoid valve 19 is opened, so that the oil accumulated in the wide tube 48 flows over the edge of an inner tube 10 and out of the sump 3. When the filling is completed, the solenoid valve 19 is closed again.
If salts are concentrated in the sump 3, this is registered by means of a conductivity meter 43 signalling the opening of the solenoid valve 42 which closes again by means of a timer, which is not shown.
The apparatus is used in the following manner. The polluted liquid 41 to be treated is added by starting circulation pump 20, which is controlled by the level controller 27, so that the sump 3 is filled to a predetermined level.
Depending on the boiling point of the distillate 44, e.g., water, the liquid 41 is in this case heated in the sump by means of the heating element 25, e.g., to 100° C. When this temperature is reached the vapor compressor 36 is started by means of the thermostat 26 and the pressure switch 28, which have to register a pressure and a temperature corresponding to the boiling point temperature and the boiling point pressure of the distillate 44.
If this is not the case, e.g., because a liquid having a lower boiling point is mixed with the liquid 41, the pressure will be sufficiently high but the temperature will be too low. If this is the case, the vapor of the lower boiling liquid is led via the compressor 36 to the evaporation tank 1, from which it is led to the condensation chamber 23 through the solenoid valve 32 controlled by the pressure switch 33 and the thermostat 26 in combination.
When the pressure and the temperature in the sump 3 correspond to the distillate 44 which is to be separated, the vapor compressor 36 is started, and the vapor is led from the sump 3 to the evaporation tank 1.
When activating the apparatus the circulation pump 29 is started, so that the liquid 41 is transferred to the cover 16 from where, via the diversion ring 17, it is led down into the tubes 40 as a liquid film so that an optimal heat-transfer and thus an optimal evaporation is obtained.
After evaporation of the distillate 44, the concentrated oil and water drip down onto a hopper 7 ending in a wide tube 48. Owing to the differences in specific gravity, the oil will float and accumulate in the upper part of the wide tube 48.
The vapor that is carried along from the sump 3 passes through a perforated screen 8 in order to collect any drops. Furthermore, drops may be collected in the drop catch 38 placed in front of the compressor 36. The compressor 36 supplies energy to the vapor so that the temperature of the vapor is increased slightly, for water vapor typically from 100-102° C. This difference in temperature is to be maintained as low as possible in order to optimize the apparatus. The whole unit is arranged inside the insulated cabinet 35 in order to reduce heat loss to the surroundings.
The vapor driven by the compressor 36 is condensed on the outer side of the tubes 40 and is collected in the bottom of the evaporation tank 1, and can be drained off as a condensate 44 when a desired level is reached. The level controller 30 controls the solenoid valve 39 that drains off the distillated 44 through the heat exchanger 18, ensuring that the accumulated heat in the distillate 44 is given off to the liquid 41 to be treated.
The apparatus illustrated in FIG. 4 shows an embodiment where the vapor compression and the gravitation separation principles are combined in one unit.
A partial flow is extracted just after the circulation pump 29 and is fed through a restrictor 58 into a gravitation separator 48 consisting of a tube 55 with top and bottom. In this tube 55 a float 49 is placed, which float is supplied with a ring magnet 50 at the top. Both the float and the ring magnet surround a tube 62 in which a reed relay 51 is placed. When passing the reed relay 51, the ring magnet will activate this and control the open/close function of a solenoid valve 53 which is connected to the reed relay by a conduit 52. The float 49 is provided so that it floats in water but not in oil. Accordingly, the oil which has been separated as a result of gravitation rises to the surface and may subsequently be skimmed off through a connection pipe 54 as completely concentrated oil.
Using the gravitation separation method of the invention means that only a small amount or no oil is to be drained off through the solenoid valve 19 (not shown in FIG. 4).
When draining off the distillate 44, a mixture containing a small amount of residual oil may occur. Such mixture has been led through the vapor compressor 36 and is condensed together with the distillate 44.
To secure that this oil is separated, coalescing means 61 has been installed in front of the outlet via the solenoid valve 39 and the heat exchanger 18. The coalescing means 61 is provided in the form of a tube 60 with closed top and bottom. About half of the tube 60 has been filled up with an insulation material 59 of the type rockwool.
This insulation material is arranged behind a perforated plate 69. The material 59 is temperature resistant and will collect the small oil drops that may be condensed together with the distillate 44, so that these drops get larger and come to the surface, from which they are skimmed off through an outlet 57 and a restrictor 63. A level regulator 56 controls the solenoid valve 39 depending on the presence of oil or water around the level regulator 56.
In certain cases a concentration of ions can occur, resulting in an increased boiling temperature in the sump 3.
To control this a density regulator 68 is used consisting of a tube 64 with closed top and bottom, a float 66 with a permanent magnet 65 and a reed relay 67. The density regulator 68 is connected to the sump 3 and automatically controls the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 42' releasing a small amount of the liquid 41, and thus regulates the concentration thereof. The regulator 68 replaces the conductivity meter 43.
In this way it is possible to keep the ion concentration within a certain range and thereby the boiling point is also kept within a range securing continuous optimal operation of the unit.
The apparatus illustrated in FIG. 5 shows a special embodiment in which the evaporator and compressor are produced in one unit. This version is particularly usable in small plants of capacities of 1-10 l/h.
The unit comprises an evaporation tank 71 containing an inner chamber 76 with a stirrer 73, a drop cover 80, a heating element 74, and an inlet 72 for filling of the polluted liquid 41. Between the inner chamber 76 and an outer chamber 70 a fan rotor 77 is placed. This is actuated by an electric motor 78, which also actuates the stirrer 73 on a common shaft 79.
The outer chamber 70 is also supplied with an outlet 75 for draining off the distillate 44.
The unit illustrated in FIG. 5 will be inexpensive, and it may be manufactured solidly. In addition, the unit may form a separate component of the apparatus illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2 and 4.
The principle is the same as for the apparatus illustrated in FIG. 1 with the difference that the inner and outer chambers 76 and 70 constitute the heat exchanger parts. The stirrer 73 will secure that vapors are giving free from the polluted liquid 41 and the pressure of the vapor is elevated by the fan rotor 77, so that it will condense in the outer chamber 70 in heat exchange with the inner chamber 76. The heating element 74 will elevate the temperature to the desired level, and in operation it will maintain the temperature dependent on signals from the thermostat 26 (not shown in FIG. 5).
Other controlling elements will be the same as illustrated for the apparatus according to FIGS. 1, 2 and 4.
It is essential to see the whole functional principle collectively, as evaporation, compression and condensation of the vapor take place simultaneously. The principle requires very little energy, as only the energy supplied by the compressor 36 and a number of minor losses are necessary for the process to work.
For oil containing waste water efficiencies of 40-80 are obtained, for solvents--for example R11--efficiencies of 15-30 are obtained, for refrigerants--for example R12, efficiencies of 15-30 are obtained. This means that substantial savings may be obtained when treating liquids, solvents, etc.
For solvents--for example R11--the typical operating conditions will be:
capacity: about 100 l/h
evaporation temperature: 24° C.
condensation temperature: 36° C.
evaporation pressure: 1027 mbar
condensation pressure: 1343 mbar
For liquids with water as the main element, the typical operating conditions will be:
capacity: 100 l/h
evaporation temperature: 100° C.
condensation temperature: 101° C.
evaporation pressure: 1013 mbar
condensation pressure: 1052 mbar
The apparatus according to the invention can be used for liquids having high boiling point as well as liquids having low boiling point, and will be able to separate the individual components of the liquid 41 to be treated. The high boiling liquids will remain in the sump 3 and be drained off, while the low boiling liquids are drawn off with the vapor and led to the tube heat exchanger 4. However, they will not condense at the high temperature existing here. Such vapors will be led to the condensing chamber 23 in which they are condensed and accordingly separated from the distillate.

Found a Skippy the Propellerized Robot Dog from the TV show The Tick. Thought it had a Greyhound look to him thought that my other 1/2 would like it. Gave it to her and she loved it and immediately demanded the it be "Steampunked". So...added cut pipes to make a row of smoke stacks, 1/2 pearls as pop rivets, sculpted the tongue, added struts to either side and painted with steel and copper paints. Comments and suggestions welcomed.

This spring, an unfortunate turn of events necessitated the postponement of a World Peace Game Master Class and Camp. John and the World Peace Game Foundation (WPGF) were suddenly faced with the task of addressing immediate issues that arose from the postponement. An inspired idea was proposed to mitigate the problematic situation.
Throughout the week, John, the WPG Team and Master Class teachers spent most evenings engaged in various diversions. The host and sponsor, GlobArt, designed a full, enjoyable itinerary for John and the WPG Team, outside of the Game and Class days.
Kudos are due to all who have worked with the WPG and John, some appearing in the clips. A very hearty welcome to all future participants who wish to join the work of teaching peace!

Catherine designs articles, reports, and news for OE1, an Austrian radio program featuring broadcasts on journals, news, and culture topics. The broadcast is a must for any German speakers, who want to learn more about the curriculum of peace.
The book, World Peace and Other 4th Grade Achievements is now available in Japanese translation. The book, game, and master classes have been gaining interest and demand globally, as evidenced by the publication of the Japanese version.
John's TED2011 Talk will be aired on NHK, which is Japan's equivalent of BBC. It will be featured on Super Presentation, a NHK program which presents the top TED Talks (John Hunter was selected as one of the "2014 All-Star 50+ Favorite TED Speakers"). The episode, Teaching with the World Peace Game will be televised throughout Japan in November 2014.

Troma Team Pictures, the company that brought you such classics as The Toxic Avenger, When Nature Calls and Class Of Nuke 'Em High, takes a look inside the making of a "typical" Troma release with Terror Firmer, directed and co-written by Troma co-founder Lloyd Kaufman, who also appears as the director of the film-within-the film. Here, Kaufman (whose character is blind, which would explain a lot about Troma's product) and his crew are making a willfully sleazy horror flick, complete with monsters, gore, gratuitous nudity and loud rock 'n' roll, when a serial killer appears who doesn't happen to be in the script. Terror Firmer is based in part on Kaufman's 1998 book about his career with Troma, All I Need To Know About Filmmaking I Learned From The Toxic Avenger, and includes a plug for the upcoming Jane Austen's Schlock and Schlockability (possibly a follow-up to 1996's Shakespeare variant Tromeo and Juliet).

Scott Howson's legacy with the Columbus Blue Jackets was trading away star power forward Rick Nash, but he also acquired Russian goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky.
Would the Blue Jackets be squarely in the playoff picture in the Western Conference standings this season without the sensational play of the man everyone calls Bob? Not a chance.
The 24-year-old Bobrovsky could win the Vezina Trophy and will get some Hart Trophy votes as the NHL's most valuable player as well. He has an 18-11-6 record and a 2.03 goals-against average and a .931 save percentage.
Howson didn't think Steve Mason had it in him to be a 50-or 60-game goalie, so he dealt three draft picks to the Philadelphia Flyers for Bobrov-sky last summer as the goalie market was closing.
After Howson, who was named senior vice-president of hockey operations for the Edmonton Oilers last Monday, was fired in Columbus, his replacement, Jarmo Kekalainen, dealt Mason to the Flyers.
"Yeah, that's kind of different, isn't it?" admitted Howson, who wasn't exactly sure what he was getting in Bobrovsky.
But he did know that Mason wasn't doing the job.
"Too much early success," Howson said of what affected Mason's play.
Last summer, NHL goalies Anders Lindback, Jonathan Bernier and Bobrovsky were all in play. The Tampa Bay Lightning dealt for Lindback, Pekka Rinne's backup with the Nashville Predators; Bernier stayed in L.A. - the Kings didn't want to deal him because Jonathan Quick was having back surgery; and Bobrovsky wound up in Columbus.
"He was the last one available. I'm not saying I was after Lindback or Bernier, but we were pretty determined in Columbus to put our best foot forward to make sure we got an established NHL goalie," Howson said.
The Flyers had another team in the bidding for Bobrovsky, but once Howson threw an extra fourth-round pick into the mix, along with a second-rounder and a fourth, the deal was done.
"Bobrovsky's first NHL season, he had a good start, then tailed off, which is normal for young players. And last year - I discounted last year for Bobrovsky because (Ilya) Bryzgalov came in and he didn't have a chance to repeat what he did," Howson said. "I wanted another goalie to compete with Steve and hoped one of them would become a No. 1 goalie. I wasn't sure which one it would be."
Bobrovsky wasn't this all-world goalie when Howson was there, but he was starting to be a factor.
"He played good in spurts and he and Mason were going back and forth. He's been good since he came in and relieved Steve when Edmonton was in Columbus for a game. Steve got pulled after the third Oilers goal and then Bob made a couple of great saves on (Jordan) Eberle."
The key for Bobrovsky, of course, is to do it again next season and the year after.
"We had a goalie who had one great (rookie) year and that was it," Howson said of Mason. "Once around the league, people know you and expose your weaknesses. I still believe (Mason) has the talent to be a really good NHL goalie. It just wasn't going to be in Columbus. Too much water under the bridge after a while."
What's with Lucic?
Everybody's monitoring the Milan Lucic situation, including the Oilers and Lu-cic's hometown Vancouver Canucks.
Sources say the lockout and more than four months of living the soft life - not playing any games anywhere - didn't help the Boston Bruins winger. He didn't show up in the best of shape and has been a shadow of his usual self. He's not mean, not moving his feet.
There's much hope in these parts the Bruins might want to part with Lucic, who was a healthy scratch Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins but returned to the line-up Sunday to play 13 minutes against the Florida Panthers.
Lucic has scored just one goal in his last 26 games.
When Lucic is engaged in the game, he is one of the most unique players in the league. He's huge and has fairly good hands and a temper. Of course, all anyone is seeing now is the size, not the power.
Lucic, who turns 25 in June, has just six goals, only 67 shots and 65 penalty minutes this season. The Bruins do not want to trade him, but they also know they would have a lineup of teams banging on their door with one caveat: his three-year $18-million contract starts next season. That's $6 million a season for a question mark.
While the Bruins hope Lucic comes around, they're ready to turn the page on Nathan Horton as an unrestricted free-agent winger. He was hurt in a fight with Pittsburgh's Jarome Iginla on Saturday, but he really hasn't been the same since suffering the bad concussion when clobbered by Aaron Rome in the Stanley Cup final in 2011.
One that got away
If you think you've heard of Blue Jackets defenceman Dalton Prout, he attended the Oilers rookie and main training camps in 2009 as an undrafted walk-on.
There were several Edmonton Oil Kings invites that year, including Brett Breitkreuz, Michael Burns, Adrian Van de Mosselaer and Jeff Lee. Prout did enough to get to the main group as well. The six-foot-three, 225-pound Prout was drafted the next year by Columbus when he was a 19-year-old in Barrie, Ont., beating the Oilers to the punch.
"I talked to Kevin (Lowe, Oilers president of hockey operations) about Prout. They were thinking of drafting him," Howson said. "He played against Taylor Hall in an (Ontario Hockey League) playoff series with Windsor and Barrie the year (2010) Taylor got drafted.
"I saw a big defenceman with some strength who had gone through the draft once until he found himself. I was told by people in the Ontario League he was a pretty good 16-yearold with high expectations, but he floundered around before settling in on a really good Barrie team. He's a late bloomer, playing very well there," How-son said.
Not ready to quit
Veteran Oilers winger Ryan Smyth said he has no trouble reinventing himself as a role player at age 37, much further back in the team's line-up. Other guys have done it, accepted less responsibility to keep playing.
"Two players stick out in my mind, Dave Andreychuk and Mark Recchi," said Smyth, who is not ready to quit. "And-reychuk won a Stanley Cup in Tampa (as a checker and sometimes power-play specialist in 2004) and was effective at his age (41). He was better when he was younger, but they defined a role for him and he delivered.
"And Recchi? We played him in Carolina in the finals (in 2006) and he won another Stanley Cup in Boston (in 2011). I'm not comparing myself to those guys, but they've done it (changing roles) and I can, too," Smyth said.
Recchi won a ring with the Hurricanes at age 38 and retired at 43 with the Bruins.

Brian Cashman used a Jeremy Lin reference to motivate Yankees at camp
Jeremy Lin has already become more than just a basketball superstar. He's a global icon.
Jeremy Lin has already become more than just a basketball superstar. He's a global icon.
It has been a tremendously busy few weeks for Bobby Valentine, who was finally introduced as the next manager of the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. Brian Cashman wants to make it busier.
The practice of pretending you are interested in a free agent simply to force the competition to pay more for them is nothing new for MLB general managers.
You know how when people lose weight other people tell them how great they look and it makes them feel even better? Brian Cashman is not one of those other people.
Yankees GM Brian Cashman did not want to bring Rafael Soriano on board as the team's set-up man for Mariano Rivera. How do we know that? Maybe because he said it.
Yankees pitcher A.J. Burnett conjured up memories of Miguel Cabrera when he showed up for his start on Friday night sporting a shiner.
Every general manager makes mistakes. To Brian Cashman's credit, he has made very few over the years.
The man on the right (in case you couldn't tell since the sunglasses on his face covered up the jelly donuts under his eyes), is Yankees GM Brian Cashman.

High winds tear roof from apartment building, snap power poles in Norman, hail pounds Oklahoma City
High winds tore the roof off an apartment building and snapped trees and power poles in Norman, and hail the size of tennis balls fell in Oklahoma City on Tuesday evening as a severe storm swept through central Oklahoma.
Norman Fire Deputy Chief Jim Bailey said wind damage was widespread as far north as Rock Creek Road and as far south as Lindsey Street.
"We are going to have roofs damaged, lots of power lines down, we've got multiple trees and limbs down, condenser units blown off of roofs," Bailey said.
Bailey said only one injury was reported.
"That was a telephone pole that came down and hit a vehicle," Bailey said. "That person had a laceration on his head, but he will be OK."
OG&E listed about 33,000 of its customers without power Tuesday evening in Norman. Much of the city was left in the dark.
The wind tore the roof off a building at the Parkland Apartments, 201 Woodcrest Drive, leaving dozens of people homeless. The American Red Cross is providing those in the 20 apartments affected with temporary housing, officials said.
Brandy Parker lives on the first floor of the building that lost its roof.
"There was a big strong wind, and it just blew the roof right off," Parker said.
Mark Austin, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Norman, said the damage in Norman was likely from straight line winds associated with the storm.
"We definitely had some gusts to 70 miles per hour measured by the Norman mesonet," Austin said. "The hail was mostly golf ball size, but we did have a report of tennis ball-sized hail at Lake Hefner."
Oklahoma City residents reported hail damage to vehicles and roof and siding damage to homes, but officials said there were no reports of major damage from the storm.
Birthe and Bob Flexner rode out the storm in their home in central Norman.
"We could just stand here and hear the trees crashing," Bob Flexner said.
One tree in their backyard ripped power lines off the side of their house, and another one crashed into their greenhouse.
Norman police Lt. Gary Shelton said officials were struggling to keep up with the volume of calls to 911.
"Dispatch has been flooded with phone calls, mostly about downed power lines and trees," Shelton said.

Wheeling/Ohio County, WV and OSP District 7
|Player Selection
Wheeling/Ohio County, WV and OSP District 7
(((Stereo Feed))) Left = **Ohio State Highway Patrol** ------ Right = All Ohio County & Most Marshall County, WV Police & Fire Departments; (Northern Panhandle) West Virginia State Police
|Public Safety
update 12-19-2015:
As of December 6, Marshall County Fire is now using the WV SIRN... Fire band dispatches and most field activity (depending on which tower the radios are hitting) will now be heard on the right channel of this feed... companies and their station numbers are listed below...
update 10-20-14:
As of today at 04:00 Belmont County rolled out their new p25 digital radio system... on this system, all law enforcement talkgroups are now transmitting using full time encryption... Because of this, we will no longer be offering any public safety channels from Belmont County...
update 3-27-14:
Within the last few months, as you may have already noticed, Glen Dale Police have jumped on the WVSIRN bandwagon which they commonly utilize thus I'm not sure yet if they still use vhf or they exclusivly use this system...
update 9-1-13:
For the next couple weeks, until the State of Ohio MARCS radio system is completely rebanded, I will have the "helpdesk" channel set as a priority TG on the left channel of this stream. .. . This means that some State Patrol conversations will get cut off whhen the Helpdesk channel becomes active... A huge annoyance however this change is only temporary and will end once the system rebanding is complete... I am doing this to accomodate Radio Reference system administrators in determining which tower sites are undergoing the rebanding process....
update 12-22-12:
Within the last week the City of Moundsville Police Department has started using the WVSIRN / WVIRP state radio system although at present it is being used on a very infrequent basis as Moundsville Police still uses the VHF high band frequency of 155.250 for dispatching and most operations.... You will know when you are hearing Moundsville Police as they call into and are dispatched from : "Station".
update 5-17-12:
As of april 20, the Moundsville dispatch of the West Virginia State Police has begun using the WVSIRN radio network... This means that most troopers in Hancock, Brooke, Ohio, Marshall, Wetzel, and Tyler Counties can now be heard on this feed.... The tower coverage in Hancock county is still not 100% so the troopers will still use the existing VHF low band radios but most state police traffic is now on the right channel of this stream. .. You will know when you are hearing the WV State Police because they call into and are dispatched from: "Moundsville".
update 12-26-11:
Benwood and McMechan Police Departments have begun using the WVIRP system so they are now included to the list of agencies on the right side of this broadcast... In other news, someone in Charleston has decided to rename the statewide system as "West Virginia Statewide Interoperablity Radio Network" however most users are still refering to it as "the I R P".
update 5-14-11:
As of April 12, 2011 Ohio County has joined the West Virginia Statewide radio system which is called: "West Virginia Introperbility Radio Project" aka WVIRP , Due to this change there will be more agencies from around WV heard on this stream.... Some agencies that I hear regularly are the WVDNR conservation officers out of the Farmington base, the WV State Fire Marshall, and the WVDOH transportation management center (TMC)... I will keep this site updated with any new agencies that I discover.
update: 4-5-11
As of April 01, 2011, The left channel of this stream is scanning both the Kirkwood & Powhatan MARCS sites...... The Powhatan site has been added to give more coverage of Monroe County Sheriff's Dept & Woodsfield Police... While reception of Monroe County Law will still not be 100% , the addition of this tower site will increse their presence on the left Channel of this stream
Due to the fact that there is a seperate webcast for Wheeling City Fire & Police and Belmont County, they will both be in scan on the right channel of this stream UNLESS there is a very high volume of radio traffic at a particular time... This traffic could be related to severe weather or major incidents.... if that is the case and I am able, I will run only MARCS on left and WVIRP on the right..... (this means Ohio Highway Patrol on left side and Ohio County/WVSP on right side)
This is a split stereo feed which means that there are two scanners in use- one radio in the left speaker and one radio in the right speaker.... If you choose to listen using a media player such as WINAMP or other device that has audio balance control, you can simply adjust the left-right balance control on your player/device and listen only to the side you prefer. HOWEVER, if you are using the Radio Reference web player or other device which has no balance control, you are forced to listen to both scanners- unless of course you are using a computer in which you can go to the computer's audio properties and adjust the balance there to suit your desired listening; something you may want to consider during periods of heavy radio traffic because two people talking at once can get rather annoying.
This live stream mainly broadcasts agencies located in Belmont County, Ohio and Ohio County, West Virginia...along with a few agencies in Marshall County,WV
you will also hear on here, activity and agencies from surrounding counties including:
Specific Agencies that are regularly heard on each channel of this LIVE Stream include:
*******on the LEFT CHANNEL******* (from Kirkwood & Powhatan MARCS)
This feed receives practically all of OSP Post 07's radio traffic and quite often will carry the activity of either Post 41 or Post 84. Quite often you will hear all three depending on what is going on with the dispatch center or if a Jefferson County unit is south of Rush Run or otherwise hitting the Kirkwood Tower..... The Cambridge channel will pop in as well.
OSP St. Clairsville Dispatch handles: Belmont, Monroe, Morgan and Washington Counties.... OSP New Philadelphia Dispatch handles: Carroll, Harrison, Jefferson, and Tuscarawas Counties.... OSP Cambridge Dispatch handles: Coshocton, Guernsey, Muskingum, and Noble Counties... If you are hearing Cambridge units on this webcast then it is most likely a trooper in either Guernsey or Noble County as very rarely does the Zanesville Post become active on either of the two tower sites that I scan.....(update: 10/2012: it appears that the dispatching duties for post 41, Wintersville have been moved back to the St.Clairsville dispatch center but i want to confirm that first)
There is pretty much nothing on this left channel but OSP and occasionally Monroe County Sheriff... Most ems, medcorps, aircare, helpdesks, prisons and other annoying talkgroup channels have been locked out, however, note that the radio is scanning in open mode so it is quite possible for a rogue MARCS user to stray into one of the two towers' coverage area.......................
In 2011, Monroe County, Ohio started using the Ohio MARCS System for their EMS and Sheriffs Dept. Their talkgroup channels can be heard on this stream quite often. You will know when you are hearing Monroe County because they always call in to and are dispatched from "5-6" or "56" (which is their State of Ohio alphabetical county #) and most Monroe Co users talk using standard BSSA lingo (see link below).... . also to note, Woodsfield Police department uses the number "12" (twelve) as their radio contact unit number. Other two digit single numbers (such as 3-2 or 7-5) are Monroe County deputies... The Monroe County Ems Squads are numbered as follows:
