Title: Antimicrobial composition comprising potassium sorbate and lae
Inventor: FIGUERAS ROCA SERGI
IPC: A01P1/00
Filed: 2001-04-28
Granted: 2009-10-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a novel composition with antimicrobial activity. It is in the food industry a well-known method to use the product L-arginine, Na-lauroyl-ethylester monohydrochloride (LAE). This product is well tolerated and suitable for use in the preservation of all perishable food products. The action of LAE can be further improved by combining the product with a second component selected from the group consisting of potassium sorbate, sodium sorbate and sorbic acid. The weight ratio of LAE to the second component is preferably in the range of 1:50 to 50:1. The combination of the two products leads to a synergistic combined activity against such microorganisms as Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus megaterium, Citrobacter intermedium, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Penicillium camemberti and Cladosporium cladosporioides.

Title: Spray-applied cellulose insulation and method
Inventor: LANTHIER ALAIN
IPC: F16L59/02
Filed: 2003-11-27
Granted: 2007-02-06
Abstract: A spray-on cellulose insulation and method of application is described herein. The insulation comprises cellulose and an adhesive having gelling properties during application, preferably polyvinyl alcohol. The cellulose includes an additive which triggers gelling of the adhesive upon application to the cellulose. The cellulose preferably also includes a crosslinker for the adhesive. The additive and the crosslinker may be the same, which means the crosslinker is sufficiently alkaline to also trigger the gelling of the adhesive upon application of the adhesive to the cellulose. The gelling of the adhesive allows a reduction in the level of moisture added to the cellulose fibres to below 20%, resulting in an insulation with rapid drying times, reduced risk for fungal growth, lower applied densities and a total moisture content below 30% on an oven dry basis.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif de raccord visant à permettre le raccordement et le blocage d'éléments tubulaires. Le raccord est constitué de deux éléments tubulaires (100, 110) et d'un élément de couplage. Les éléments tubulaires sont réunis par filetage de façon à créer une connexion filetée. Pour réaliser le dispositif de blocage, on a eu recours à la formation, sur l'élément tubulaire, d'un passage (120, 130) dans lequel on peut insérer un élément bloquant (500) venant bloquer la connexion filetée. Le dispositif de blocage peut également être réalisé au moyen d'une pluralité d'éléments en créneau (614, 714) répartis sur chaque élément tubulaire. Le raccord peut également comporter un élément de couplage distinct (620) aux extrémités filetées, l'une avec un pas à droite (622R), et l'autre avec un pas à gauche (622L), de façon à se visser sur les filetages des deux éléments tubulaires.

Title: Soil remediation of mercury contamination
Inventor: VINEGAR HAROLD J
IPC: B09B3/00
Filed: 2002-10-24
Granted: 2010-09-21
Abstract: An in situ soil remediation system may be used to remove or reduce levels of mercury contamination within soil. The soil remediation system may also remove or reduce levels of other contaminants within the soil. Mercury may be vaporized within the soil by a heating system. The vaporized mercury may be removed from the soil by a vacuum system. The vaporized mercury may pass through heated risers that elevate the vaporized mercury. After the vaporized mercury passes from the heated risers, the vaporized mercury may be allowed to cool, condense, and flow downward to a treatment facility. Removing mercury from the soil as a vapor may provide an economical, safe, and efficient way to remediate mercury contaminated soil.

Abstract: A portable instant water heater. Water is delivered to a base unit (22) of the instant hot water heater by a pump (26) that draws water from a reservoir (28) through a flow control valve (90). The water flows into a pre-heater (74) that wraps around a base of the burner and that is heated by the burner (52). Water is heated in a heat exchanger (82) and then exits the bare unit through an outlet spout that swings out from the base unit to dispense water and that may be stored and locked into position in a handle for the base unit. The flow control valve (90) may lower the flow of water through the heat exchanger, so the water has more time to absorb heat and to get hotter. The base unit includes a single control knob (44) that turns an the pump (26) and the burner (52) and operates the flow control valve (90).
