System Eliminating Emergency Discharges in Industrial Facilities Waste Waters Using Relative Signal Description by V. A. Alekseev, S. I. Yuran, V. P. Usoltsev, D. N. Shulmin

“…The relative description on the components of the lattice function of the spectrum of emergency discharges is used, constructed using the order ratio between the components of the lattice function.The emergency discharge identification can be implemented by comparing the relative description of the emergency discharge spectrum with the reference spectra for the harmful substances that can be present at the given industrial facility, and the standards of the spectra of these substances are presented in the form of a relative description using the ratio “more”–“less”.The authors provide a flow chart for the emergency discharge elimination system, describe its operation and the functions fulfilled by its elements. …”
