Abstract: Using site-directed mutagenesis to mutate the Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyase gene, variants of Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyase with improved thermostability and/or enzymatic activity have been expressed in Escherichia coli, and then isolated and purified. The mutant Xanthomonas campestris pectate lyases are more effective than the wild-type enzyme, also expressed in E. coli, in removing pectic compounds from natural hemp fiber.

IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 2001-03-20
Abstract: Channel state information (CSI) can be used by a communications system to precondition transmissions between transmitter units and receiver units. In one aspect of the invention, disjoint sub-channel sets are assigned to transmit antennas located at a transmitter unit.  Pilot symbols are generated and transmitted on a subset of the disjoint sub-channels.  Upon receipt of the transmitted pilot symbols, the receiver units determine the CSI for the disjoint sub-channels that carried pilot symbols. These CSI values are reported to the transmitter unit, which will use these CSI values to generate CSI estimates for the disjoint sub-channels that did not carry pilot symbols. The amount of information necessary to report CSI on the reverse link can be further minimized through compression techniques and resource allocation techniques.

Abstract: A movable barrier system allows for varying the linear actuator speed to account for speed variances caused by the physical configuration of the system. An example system includes a processor configured to variably control operation speed of the linear actuator when it moves a movable barrier between a first position of the movable barrier and a second position of the movable barrier as a function of location of the movable barrier pivot connection relative to the linear actuator pivot connection. The function may be a function of a ratio of a distance from the linear actuator pivot connection to a fixed point and a distance from the movable barrier pivot connection to the fixed point. The function may be calculated by the processor or accessed by the processor according to information about the physical configuration of the system.

Title: Solution mining and a crystallizer for use therein
Inventor: HAUGEN HARVEY
IPC: E21B43/241
Filed: 2010-12-13
Abstract: In solution mining, holes are drilled parallel to the ground in the ore body to form a series of zig-zag channels. These holes are connected to respective holes from the surface to provide a feed and delivery path and a solvent is circulated through the system so as to dissolve the ore and carry the ore to the surface.  The flow of the solvent through the holes forms circular caverns at the intersection of the horizontal hole as well as meanders by eroding the holes so as to gradually extract the ore on each side of the hole. At the surface the ore is extracted in a series of crystallizers each formed by a vessel with an exterior cooling system and an internal wiping system providing shear inside the vessel. The solvent is topped up, reheated and returned to the paths to continue the process.

Abstract: The invention uses rubber sheeting manufactured from rubber recovered from the recycling of scrap rubber tires to fabricate tarpaulins with physical properties that provide improved protection for the objects and surfaces they cover. The component sheeting is highly durable, UV resistant, will not rot or mildew, is highly puncture and rip resistant, and is manufactured in an environmentally green process. By itself, the sheeting is inherently stiff and not easily foldable into portable, stackable packages. The invention joins multiple small, easily manageable rectangles of the sheeting by means of a flexible hinge material, thus creating a relatively large tarpaulin which can be folded into a compact, uniform package that is easily stored, transported, and re-folded after use. The invention makes practicable the use of recycled rubber sheeting to fabricate heavy duty tarpaulins with improved protective properties due to the inherent resilience and strength of the rubber sheeting.

Abstract: A photodegradable plastic is described, comprising cellulose esters and also, if appropriate, additives. A particular characterizing feature of this photodegradable plastic is that it comprises a dispersed photocatalytic carbon-modified titanium di-oxide. Comparative experiments show that this photodegradable plastic exhibits a surprisingly high increase in photocatalytic de-gradability when compared with products in which a conventional or other modified titanium dioxide is used. This improvement is apparent in particular in use of the photodegradable plastic according to the invention when it is further processed to give mol-dings. The photodegradable plastic can, for example, first be further processed to give a filter tow. This can be used to produce fil-ter rods, and these can then be used to produce filter plugs for filter-tip cigarettes.

Abstract: A method for calibrating an ion trap mass spectrometer is disclosed.
