Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de récupérer des produits chimiques et de l'énergie de la liqueur épuisée obtenue dans les procédés de réduction en pâte chimique, selon lesquels la liqueur épuisée est gazéifiée dans des conditions sub-stoechiométriques pour produire, d'une part, une phase de matière solide et/ou fondue et, d'autre part, une phase de matière gazeuse inflammable. Ces phases sont ensuite refroidies par contact direct avec un agent de refroidissement (9). La liqueur épuisée est séparée de ladite phase de matière gazeuse inflammable afin d'être dissoute et recueillie sous forme de produit liquide dans un collecteur de produit liquide (11). Selon l'invention, l'agent de refroidissement (9) est un agent de refroidissement sensiblement exempt d'eau qui, après vaporisation/fissuration, augmente la valeur calorifique de la matière gazeuse inflammable soutirée. En outre, ce procédé est amélioré en ce sens que les gaz inflammables peuvent être utilisés plus efficacement aux fins, par exemple, de production d'énergie.

Abstract: Biodegradable polymer blends suitable for laminate coatings, wraps and other packaging materials manufactured from at least one "stiff" biopolymer and at least one "soft" biopolymer. "Stiff" biopolymers tend to be more brittle and rigid and typically have a glass transition temperature greater than about 10° C. "Soft"  biopolymers tend to be more flexible and pliable and typically have a glass transition temperature less than about 0° C. While stiff and soft polymers each possess certain intrinsic benefits, certain blends of stiff and soft polymers have been discovered which possess synergistic properties superior to those of either stiff or soft polymers by themselves.  Biodegradable polymers include polyesters, polyesteramides and thermoplastically processable starch.  The polymer blends may optionally include an inorganic filler. Films and sheets made from the polymer blends may be textured so as to increase the bulk hand feel.  Wraps will typically be manufactured so as to have good "dead-fold" properties so as to remain in a wrapped position and not spring back to an "unwrapped" and planar form.  Laminate films will typically have good water vapor barrier properties as measured by their Water Vapor Permeability Coefficient (WVPC).

Abstract: A method of batching multiple sets of responses on a server and sending the responses to a client in a single batch (i.e., a "chained" or "packed" batch). The sets of responses may be each be obfuscated and/or compressed. Once the batch is received by the client, each set is processed individually. The client may be configured to communicate the size of an uncompressed set of responses that it can handle. The server may use this information to create sets of responses that are the correct size, and may or may not compress the sets of responses. The server may chain the sets of responses and may continue to chain sets, compressed or not, until the server's buffer is full or close to full. The chained set of responses may then be sent to the client, and may process each of the sets of responses individually.
