Abstract: A smokeless cigarette for e.g. anti-smoke purposes includes a part that can deliver or distribute nicotine to the skin of a user. The cigarette includes a mouthpiece part having an inner porous body permeable to air, designed substantially as a filter of a filter cigarette. The front part that corresponds to the tobacco part of a filter cigarette can be made to include an inner portion of for example an air permeable material impregnated with a fragrant or refreshing substance. The inner bodies are secured to each other by and surrounded by a surface layer of a material that in a region in the mouthpiece part is impregnated with nicotine. The surface layer can have perforations in its area adjacent to the front part in the case where the inner portion of the front part of the cigarette is not permeable to air. Before use, the whole cigarette is enclosed by a thin protective film that has to be removed before use. By the impregnation with nicotine, the nicotine can when using the cigarette, in the contact with a user's skin, penetrate the skin into the blood and hence give stimulation.

Title: Crystallization method for benzphetamine
Inventor: KALOTA DENNIS J
IPC: C07C209/84
Filed: 2005-11-02
Abstract: There is disclosed a method for the crystallization of benzphetamine hydrochloride from an organic medium by the steps of removing water from the system to a very low level and then reducing the temperature of the organic medium to provide crystallization of the acid salt. In the event that crystallization does not occur upon lowering the temperature of the medium, it has been discovered that gentle heating of the organic medium results in crystallization of the acid salt. It has also been discovered that higher temperature crystallization has been provided by removal of methamphetamine from the composition. The crystalline benzphetamine hydrochloride can then be isolated by typical liquid/solid separation means such as filtration or centrifugation.

Abstract: A diesel engine (10) operates by alternative diesel combustion. Formation of fuel and charge air mixtures is controlled by processing a particular set of values for certain input data according to a predictor algorithm model (50) to develop data values for predicted time of auto-ignition .theta.AI and resulting torque TQAI , and also develop data values for control of fuel and air that will produce the predicted time of auto-ignition .theta.AI and resulting torque TQAI. The data values developed by the predictor algorithm and data values for at least some of the input data are processed according to a control algorithm (52) that compensates for any disturbance .delta.IMT, .delta.EGR introduced into any of the data values for at least some of the input data being processed by the control algorithm. This causes the systems to be controlled by compensated data values IVC, Mf that produce predicted time .theta.AI of auto-ignition and resulting torque TQAI in the presence of any such disturbance .delta.IMT, .delta.EGR.
