Patent NZ-706072-A (NZ)
Title: Equipment protecting enclosures
Inventor: MEDOFF MARSHALL
IPC: D06L4/50
Filed: 2013-10-10
Abstract: This invention relates to systems, methods and processing equipment used for producing products from a material, e.g., a biomass material. Generally, the methods include treating a recalcitrant biomass with electron beams while conveying the material using one or more conveyors in a vault and then biochemically and chemically processing the reduced recalcitrance material to, for example, ethanol, xylitol and other products. Radiation in the vault can cause damage to processing equipment in the vault or the radiation can create reactive gases, e.g., ozone, which can also degrade processing equipment. This damage can present hazards due to equipment failure as well as incurring costs due to down time and necessary repairs. Mitigation of this damage can be accomplished by enclosing equipment and/or components of the processing equipment in equipment enclosures that are radiation opaque and that can be purged with a gas that is inert to the components and/or equipment. In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of protecting material processing equipment, the method comprising; conveying a biomass material under an electron beam on a conveyor, and enclosing motor components of the conveyor in an equipment enclosure that is opaque to ionizing radiation; and purging the enclosure with a gas selected from the group consisting of oxygen reduced air, nitrogen, argon, helium, carbon dioxide, and mixtures thereof. In a second aspect, the present invention provides a system for protecting a motor and other motor components of a vibratory conveyor, the system comprising: a vibratory conveyor having motor components mounted on a structure; an equipment enclosure that is opaque to ionizing radiation and configured to be positioned over the motor components and having an open end that is dimensioned so as to provide a gap between the equipment enclosure and the structure when the equipment enclosure is in place; and a conduit configured for flowing a purging gas into the equipment enclosure, the purging gas selected from the group consisting of oxygen reduced air, nitrogen, argon, helium, carbon dioxide, and mixtures thereof.

Inventor: PRESSLY ERIC
IPC: C07C57/145
Filed: 2015-05-15
Abstract: Formulations, kits, and methods for rebuilding the disulfide bonds in keratin found in hair, skin, or nails. Hair that is damaged due to a hair coloring treatment and/or other reducing treatment, such as during a permanent wave, can be treated with the formulations containing one or more active agents.

Abstract: FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves evaluating sympathico- parasympathic balance index (SPBI) value from R-R interval distribution as ratio of two parameters: mode amplitude to number of positions (N) entering the distribution. Logarithmic scale is used. R-R interval estimate resolution capacity is defined to be equal to 0.01 s. Positive value and magnitude of the SPBI determine domination and domination measure of sympathic component of organism cardiovascular system, respectively. Negative value and magnitude of the SPBI determine domination and domination measure of parasympathic component of organism cardiovascular system, respectively. R-R interval distribution median frequency (F, Hz) is evaluated. A patient is identified with respect to his individually typological cardiovascular activity specific by means of two- dimensional plane vector coordinates, where SPBI is the ordinate (conditional units, logarithmic scale), and apex is the R-R interval distribution median frequency (Hz) in (100x5) cardiocycles. Neuroticism and introversion- extroversion states evaluation is carried out by means of Izenkov questionnaire or using a vector, which coordinates belong to some two-dimensional space of cardiovascular activity parameters. EFFECT: unbiased evaluation of human personality properties.
