Title: Process for packaging frozen goods, waste such as household garbage and the like
Inventor: ESSER HANS-PETER
IPC: B65B31/00
Filed: 1997-01-08
Abstract: A process is disclosed for packaging frozen goods, waste such as household garbage and the like. The goods to be packaged are placed in a foil container (2) and packaged by welding and evacuating. The process is characterised in that the foil container is closed by a first welding operation which forms a first weld to package the goods placed therein. Holes are then formed in the closed foil container, in particular by punching or burning, and the air contained in the foil container is evacuated, in particular by a vacuum pump (5) or an aspirating fan. The thus obtained vacuum space is sealed by a second welding operation which forms a second weld between the first weld and the packaged goods. Also disclosed is a vacuum-packaging apparatus for carrying out this process.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/US97/01215 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 15, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 15, 1999 PCT Filed Jan. 28, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/32503 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 12, 1997In order to enable a decorative panel of a table, such as that used in fast food restaurants bars etc., to be readily interchanged in accordance with changes in season or game popularity etc., one of the moldings provided about the edge of the table is arranged to be disconnectable from the remainder of the table to expose a side edge of the decorative panel. In some embodiments, the panel is slidably received in grooves which are formed in moldings while in other embodiments the panel is adhered to the surface of the table top using dual-sided tape. When the panel is retained by way of grooves, the removal of the disconnectable molding permits the panel to be slid out and replaced. On the other hand, when the panel is secured to the table top using the dual-sided tape, removal of the removable molding exposes an edge of the panel in a manner which facilitates the application of the necessary lever action to overcome the bonding force of the tape and lift the panel up off the table in readiness for replacement with another. If desired, special lock pins which require special tools for manipulation can be used in conjunction with the panels to prevent unauthorized interchange.

Title: Aqueous process for preparing amido-carboxylic acids by reacting an amino acid with a carboxylic acid anhydride
Inventor: ZIMA GEORGE CHESTER
IPC: C07C231/08
Filed: 1995-04-07
Abstract: This invention relates to a process for preparing amido-carboxylic acids in water. The process involves four steps. Step (A) involves hydrolyzing a lactam at a temperature of 150 DEG  C.-300 DEG  C. to form a mixture containing an amino acid. Step (B) involves cooling the reaction mixture formed in Step (A) to a temperature of 25 DEG  C.-100 DEG  C. Step (C) involves reacting a carboxylic acid anhydride with the amino acid formed in Step (A) to form a reaction mixture containing an organic layer which contains an amido-carboxylic acid and an aqueous layer. Step (D) involves separating the amido-carboxylic acid containing organic layer from the aqueous layer. The presence of water aids in product isolation by phase separation and recycle of the reactants. Amido-carboxylic acids are used to make bleach activators for detergents.
