IPC: C07H1/00
Filed: 2013-12-16
Abstract: Saccharide conjugate vaccines which use diphtheria toxoid or tetanus toxoid as a carrier protein can confer protection against lethal challenge by diphtheria toxin or tetanus toxin. Thus, in addition to protecting against the bacteria whose saccharides have been attached to the carrier, such conjugate vaccines can also be used to protect against diphtheria and tetanus, so the diphtheria toxoid and tetanus toxoid components of current complex combination vaccines may be superfluous. Therefore the antigenic complexity of these vaccines can be reduced without reducing their breadth of protection, and removing these superfluous components creates space in the vaccine for adding immunogens for protecting against further pathogens. The same effect is not seen with a CRM197 carrier, but this observation makes this carrier more attractive for conjugate vaccines which are given concomitantly with infant combination vaccines that contain Dt and Tt.

Abstract: The description relates to improving the operation of wet scrubbers, especially those based on calcium carbonate, by reducing the quantities of soluble chlorides in the combustion gases fed to the scrubbers. By converting gaseous HCI in the combustion gases to a solid copper chloride and removing it before the chloride reaches the scrubber, the reactivity of the scrubbing slurry will be better maintained. Combustion gases are treated with an aqueous copper compound referred to as copper-bearing chloride remediator (CBCR). The process is preferably implemented by identifying locations within a combustor for feeding the CBCR, determining the physical form and injection parameters for the CBCR and injecting the CBCR under conditions effective to reduce HCI and/or sulfur oxides. Effective temperatures for introducing the CBCRs are between about 250° to 900°F. Among the preferred CBCRs are copper compositions including copper, an organic moiety and/or an ammonia moiety.
