Title: Optical disc and method of protecting same
Inventor: KUCHMAN TODD J
IPC: G11B7/24
Filed: 2004-02-10
Abstract: An optical disc for storage and retrieval of digital data, and a system and method for protecting the optical disc is disclosed. The optical disc has projections or embossments on one or both major surfaces. When the optical disc is placed on a substantially flat surface such as a tabletop or a desktop, the projections act as pedestals that elevate the optical disc above the flat surface. The resulting gap or clearance helps prevent damage to the optical disc caused by contaminants on the flat surface or by defects in the flat surface. The projections are sized to provide adequate clearance between the disc and the flat surface, while minimizing interference between the projections and components of optical disc readers and drives. One or more projections or projection types may also be configured with a flat surface at a point of contact to an external surface to enhance weight distribution, for example. The projections or projection types that may be configured to enhance aerodynamics. The optical disc may also include one or more depressions that are sized and configured to receive projections from another disc, which facilitates stacking of the optical discs.

IPC: F01K17/00
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: A process and apparatus are disclosed for generating electrical energy using grains or other renewable biomass as the fuel, and for producing fertilizer to grow subsequent crops. In the process, a biomass material is incinerated in a firebox of a boiler to power a first turbine to create electricity. An excess air flow is introduced into the firebox to increase NOx production. The oxidation area of the boiler is operated at a temperature exceeding about 2,000~F, and the flue gases are maintained in the high temperature environment for an increased residence time to increase NO, production. The flyash from the incinerated biomass is filtered from the flue gases exhausted from the boiler. The NO, is removed from the filtered flue gases and used to produce a nitrogen fertilizer. The nitrogen fertilizer is blended with the flyash to form a balanced fertilizer product which allows sustainable production of the biomass material.

Inventor: TARENGA ROBERTO
IPC: A47J36/02
Filed: 2005-01-28
Abstract: A dual wall cooking vessel is formed by the impact or friction bonding of the an inner to an outer vessel wherein a laminate of aluminum and copper layers is disposed between the outer surface of the bottom of the inner vessel and the inner surface of the bottom of the outer vessel. The aluminum layers are arranged to surround the copper layer of the uppermost aluminum layer being the upper aluminum layer being thinner than the lower aluminum layer and having a slightly smaller diameter than the copper and aluminum layer. The appropriate dimensions of the aluminum layers and sequence of welding and bonding operation results in the co-extrusion of both aluminum layers into a portion of the adjacent sidewall formed by the gap between the walls of the inner and outer vessel. This co-extruded layer s of aluminum within the side walls and the bottom of the vessel improves the heat transfer from the outer vessel to the inner vessel during cooking, but without significantly diminishing the insulating properties of the dual wall vessel that serve to keep the food warm while it is being served.
