Abstract: This invention relates to a method for purifying and drying a polymer hydrogel. This invention is based in part upon the discovery that rapid drying of polymer hydrogels can eliminate the problem of unacceptable levels of soluble oligomers caused by prolonged thermal treatment. Rapid drying techniques allow drying hydrogels containing more water than was previously considered possible without a loss in product quality. Furthermore, it was discovered that slurries comprising polymer hydrogels and large quantities of water can be spray dried and that spray drying can be conducted with only minimal oligomer formation.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a decoder arrangement (400), wherein a decoder (420) which is adapted to decode a bitstream which has been encoded with a non-recursive convolutional encoder is used to at least partially perform the decoding of a recursive convolutionally encoded bitstream, with pre-or post-processing (410) of the bitstream being performed to complete the decoding. More particularly, in one embodiment of the invention a recursively encoded bitstream is input into a conventional decoder (420) which is adapted to decode a non-recursively encoded bitstream. The resulting intermediate output does not represent the correct decoded bitstream, but can then be subject to a post-processing step in the form of a non-recursive encoding operation (410), which effectively completes the decoding operation and provides as its output the correct decoded bitstream. Both hard decision or soft decision inputs can be used.
