Abstract: A method is presented for producing biodiesel from a triglyceride feedstock.  The feedstock is pretreated by thermal cracking or rapid pyrolysis to form a middle distillate fraction rich in fatty acids. The middle distillate fraction is then treated by vapour phase esterification under vacuum and in the presence of an alcohol and a solid acid catalyst to produce a biodiesel stream. The biodiesel stream can be treated with a basic solution to convert residual free fatty acids to non-foaming metallic soaps, which are separated by known means. A method is also provided for producing a biodiesel/naphtha mixture, in which a triglyceride feedstock is pretreated by thermal cracking or rapid pyrolysis to produce a middle distillate fraction, a naphtha stream and a gas stream. The naphtha stream and the middle distillate fraction are then treated by vapour phase esterification under vacuum and in the presence of an alcohol and a solid acid catalyst to produce a mixed biodiesel/naphtha stream.

Inventor: CHAKRABARTY NEILIN
IPC: A61H99/00
Filed: 2010-07-08
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for managing obesity, diabetes, hair loss, aging, cardiovascular, or other blood glucose-spike-induced diseases by reducing the post-prandial blood glucose spike, or the glucose shock. The blood glucose spike, or the glucose shock is reduced by generating a person-specific glucose profile for at least one significant meal to tune or train a blood glucose model (kinetic, artificial intelligence or hybrid), and then using the tuned or the trained model embedded in a computation-capable electronic device to compute and recommend a person-specific meal plan and an exercise plan, including semi-continuous meal ingestion and post-meal exercise while sifting at home or office. Advantages over prior art are that the method uses less strenuous exercise with no or less medicine, is person-specific, quantitative and more suitable for use by an individual, a dietician, or a health care practitioner.

Title: Electro-optical devices using dynamic reconfiguration of effective electrode structures
Inventor: GALSTIAN TIGRAN
IPC: G02F1/133
Filed: 2009-06-21
Abstract: Variable liquid crystal devices for controlling the propagation of light through a liquid crystal layer use a frequency dependent material to dynamically reconfigure effective electrode structures in the device. The frequency of a drive signal that generates an electric field in the device may be varied, and the frequency dependent material has different charge mobilities for the different frequencies. At a low charge mobility, the frequency dependent material has little effect on the existing electrode structures.  However, at a high charge mobility, the frequency dependent material appears as an extension of the fixed electrodes, and may be used to change the effective electrode structure and, thereby, the spatial profile of the electric field. This, in turn, changes the optical properties of the liquid crystal, thus allowing the optical device to be frequency controllable.
