Title: Fire suppression system
Inventor: ANDERSEN THOMAS DAHL
IPC: A62C35/64
Filed: 2006-03-14
Abstract: A system for discharging inert gas for extinguishing or suppressing a fire is disclosed. A fluid discharge control arrangement is positioned in a fluid flow path between a pressurised gas supply 10A,10B,10C and the target fire suppression zone 20. The fluid discharge control arrangement reduces the pressure in the fluid flow path downstream thereof. This may allow the downstream pipework to be selected to withstand a lower pressure than in a conventional system in which the fluid discharge control device was not provided, thereby reducing costs. The fluid discharge control device may comprise a first valve 30 and first restrictor 26 in the first flow path 22 and a second valve 32 and a second restrictor 28 provided in the second flow path 24.    Fluid from the containers 10A,10B, 10C flows initially through flow path 24 and restrictor 26. Subsequently flow path 22 may be closed by optional valve 30, and flow path 24 is opened by valve 32. Fluid flow then passes through restrictor 28. This reduces the peak pressure in the downstream pipework 34.  In another embodiment the discharge of inert gas from the containers 10A, 10B and 10C is staggered to reduce the peak pressure in pipeline 34. A further embodiment provides a restrictor in the inlet 14A,14B,14C from each of the containers 10A, 10B, 10C to the manifold 16, thereby also reducing the peak pressure in the pipeline 34.

Abstract: Processes, methods and systems are provided herein for lowering the concentration of phosphorus in wastewater. The process includes adding a suitable amount of an aluminium-based coagulant/flocculent, for example, an aluminium-silicate coagulant/flocculent product to the wastewater while maintaining the pH of the wastewater at between about 4.5 and about 6.65. This step provides an eventual effluent stream of precipitated aluminium-based, phosphorus-containing flocs dispersed in the wastewater. The next step involves physically removing, as by filtering, the precipitated aluminium-based, phosphorus-containing flocs which is dispersed in the wastewater.  These steps are able to provide a wastewater effluent containing less than about 0.03 mg total phosphorus per liter of wastewater. The disclosure also teaches novel methods and systems for carrying out the novel process.

Title: Novel modified galectin 9 proteins and use thereof
Inventor: HIRASHIMA MITSUOMI
IPC: A61P37/00
Filed: 2005-03-29
Abstract: It is suggested that a recombinant galectin 9, which is produced with the use of Escherichia coli as a host, exhibits a direct effect on tumor cells (i.e., an activity of inducing the intercellular adhesion and apoptosis of the tumor cells) and an immune system-mediated effect to thereby induce the inhibition of cancer metastasis and reduction. Moreover, it exerts no effect on non-activated lymphocytes but induces apoptosis in activated T cells, in particular, CD4-positive T cells causing hyperimmune reaction and has a further potent apoptosis-inducing effect on synovial cells participating in joint deformation in rheumatism, etc. In the recombinant galectin 9, however, a linkage domain linking two CRDs has a high sensitivity to protease and, therefore, is very easily digested by the enzyme, thereby losing the above activities. Thus, a more stabilized molecule is required for further studies.  By modifying the linkage domain linking two CRDs in galectin 9, a modified molecule having an elevated activity without any undesirable effects on the above activities can be obtained.
