Title: Procedure for controlling process conditions in refiners
Inventor: KARLSTROEM ANDERS
IPC: B02C7/14
Filed: 2010-03-30
Abstract: There is a need to measure process variables spatially directly in the refining zone of refiners in the pulp and paper industry. This is accomplished by the invention and considers a control procedure where the difference between the distributed ax-ial force and the distributed steam force for high consistency refiners alternatively the liquid and the pulp phase related forces for low consistency refiners, along the radius of the segments is used to prevent fiber cutting and plate clash of the segments. The procedure is also applicable to continuous control of the refining process near machine limits.

Title: Submersible water circulation system for enclosed tanks
Inventor: WALTER DOUGLAS P
IPC: B65D90/00
Filed: 2012-01-31
Abstract: A submersible, water circulation system for enclosed tanks such as used by municipalities, fire districts, and industries. The system includes a driving unit having a shell extending along an axis with a pump supported within the shell. The shell has at least one inlet and at least one outlet and is positionable on the floor of the tank with the outlet facing upwardly. In operation, the pump continuously draws an incoming flow of water from outside of the driving unit adjacent the tank floor through the inlet of the driving unit and preferably drives all of the continuously incoming flow out through the upwardly facing outlet. The upwardly facing outlet is preferably a thin, elongated slot that creates a thin, substantially planar discharge of water therethrough that presents a very large surface area for its volume and induces water adjacent the shell to move upwardly with it.

Patent CA-2770926-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROBLES-VILLA JORGE
IPC: E21B41/00
Filed: 2012-03-09
Abstract: A backspin retarder for a progressive cavity pump deploys on the drive string uphole from a pump unit. The backspin retarder has a shaft that connects to portions of the drive string. An impeller disposes on the shaft and can move axially and radially. In an unengaged condition, the impeller and shaft can rotate relative to one another so the drive string can rotate in a drive direction without impediment from the impeller. In an engaged condition, the impeller rotates with the shaft in a backspin direction. In this way, vanes on the impeller can retard the backspin of the shaft and drive string by attempting to force the lifted fluid column flowing downhole past the impeller back uphole. The retarder can use a pin and slot arrangement or an arrangement of engageable teeth to engage the impeller to the rotation of the shaft.

Title: Assembly of staggered ablation elements
Inventor: DE LA RAMA ALAN
IPC: A61B18/14
Filed: 2010-11-15
Abstract: An ablation catheter comprises a catheter body extending longitudinally between a proximal end and a distal end along a longitudinal axis; and an ablation element assembly comprising ablation elements connected to the catheter body, each ablation element to be energized to produce an ablation zone. The ablation elements are distributed in a staggered configuration such that the ablation zones of the ablation elements span one or more open arc segments around the longitudinal axis, but the ablation zones of all ablation elements projected longitudinally onto any lateral plane which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis span a substantially closed loop around the longitudinal axis. Since the ablation zones do not form a closed loop, the risk of renal artery/vein stenosis is reduced or eliminated. Since the ablation zones of all ablation elements projected longitudinally onto any lateral plane span a substantially closed loop, substantially complete renal denervation is achieved.

Filed: 2001-12-17
Abstract: This invention relates to human medicine, and particularly to a pharmaceutical composition comprising Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) and a Growth Hormone secretagogue hexapeptide (GHRP-6); being useful to prevent tissue damages due to blood flow suppression and to enhance tissue repair following ischaemic damage. Alternatively, a subject may also receive both EGF and GHRP-6 separately but within a single therapeutic regime to enhance cellular survival when organs are subjected to blood flow deprivation for a critical period of time. This composition attenuates reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and its associated cytotoxicity. It is useful to promote cellular survival when tissues or organs are exposed to prolonged ischaemic periods. The composition may be used as a prophylactic agent in those subjects prone to multiple organ failure (MOF) such as burn victims, multiple trauma patients, hypoxic neonates, patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, and necrotizing enterocolitis patients.
