Title: Mixed bacterial culture for atrazine degradation
Inventor: HAVRILUK MAJA
IPC: A62D3/02
Filed: 2007-01-22
Granted: 2012-11-15
Abstract: The present invention provides a mixed bacterial culture, designated as the culture Atz Mix 1, which originates from the soil exposed to long-term contamination with atrazine and other s-triazine compounds. The culture Atz Mix 1 degrades atrazine at various tempetaures (1O°C to 30°C) in a wide range of atrazine concentrations (several ppb to ten thousand ppm), without formation of toxic metabolites and leading to the complete atrazine degradation (mineralization). Atz Mix 1 is a stable mixed culture consisting of at least four members of different morphological, physiological and catabolic properties. Molecular characterization of the culture Atz Mix 1 showed the presence of catabolic genes N,B, C coding the enzymes for the degradation of atrazine to cyanuric acid and the gene D coding the enzymes for subsequent opening of s-triazine ring whereas high degree of mineralization of ring labelled [C] atrazine (approximately 80%) confirmed that the degradation proceeded to yield CO and NH . The microbiological method of degrading atrazine and other s-triazine compounds, which is part of the present invention, is advantageous over the so far described methods using individual bacterial cultures. This is primarily due to the specific growth and catabolic characteristics of the mixed culture Atz Mix 1 used as a biological agent, i.e. due to its capability to express sustained growth and atrazine- degrading efficiency under the conditions similar to those occurring in atrazine- contaminated environment (e.g. varying temperatures, low C/N ratio, presence of preferential nitrogen source, high atrazine concentrations). Furthermore, it should be emphasized that the inhibition of atrazine degradation in the presence of readily accessible nitrogen sources observed with majority of the so far described individual bacterial strains was not recorded with the culture Atz Mix 1. Accordingly, it can be expected that the microbiological method of the present invention will be suitable for remediation of atrazine-contaminated soils, even those rich in nitrogen, as well as for accelerating the process of atrazine mineralization in waste waters containing high concentrations of s-triazine compounds.

Title: Combining virus checking and replication filtration
Inventor: FRIES ROBERT M
IPC: G06F21/22
Filed: 2007-03-15
Granted: 2011-09-22
Abstract: Data in backup systems can be effectively protected against viruses, even if definitions for certain viruses are found after infected data have been backed up to a backup server. In one implementation, a combined filter that includes antivirus and replica filtering components can identify and process I/O system calls (e.g., including writes to files). If a virus is present, the antivirus component of the combined filter can mark the file and/or file write (and cleanse the file/file write), and pass that information to the replica component. If the file write is associated with a file to be backed up, the replica component can then pass along the antivirus filter's indications with a copy of the file write. The backup server can also identify that previous versions of the file stored at the backup server may have been infected, and can thus perform any appropriate actions.

Title: Hydrocarbon gas processing
Inventor: LYNCH JOE T
IPC: F25J1/00
Filed: 2007-08-17
Granted: 2012-02-23
Abstract: Recovery of ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene, and heavier hydrocarbon components from a hydrocarbon gas stream. The stream is cooled and divided into first and second streams. The first stream is further cooled to condense it and is thereafter expanded to the fractionation tower pressure and supplied to the tower at mid-column. The second stream is expanded to the tower pressure and is supplied to the tower at mid-column. A distillation stream is withdrawn from the column below the feed point of the second stream and compressed, and is heat-exchanged with the tower overhead vapor stream to cool the distillation stream and condense it, forming a condensed stream which is the tower top feed. The system is effective to maintain the overhead temperature of the tower at an effective recovery temperature. The distillation stream can be withdrawn from the column above the feed point of the second stream.

Title: System for managing the multiple Air-To-Ground communication links in an Air-To-Ground cellular communication network
Inventor: BERNARD MCKENNA DANIEL
IPC: H04W84/00
Filed: 2007-09-17
Granted: 2011-09-01
Abstract: The Multi-Link Aircraft Cellular System makes use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques to improve the call handling capacity of the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network. These additional techniques can include polarization domain and ground antenna pattern shaping (in azimuth, in elevation, or in both planes). Further, if code domain separation is added, dramatic increases in capacity are realized. Thus, the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network can increase its capacity on a per aircraft basis by sharing its traffic load among more than one cell or sector and by making use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques.
