Title: Catalyst and method for hydrogenated depletion of cfc and halons from gas phases
Inventor: FREIBERG JUERGEN
IPC: B01J23/46
Filed: 1998-11-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a catalyst and method for selective hydrogenated depletion of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's) and halons from gas phases. The aim of the invention is to develop a catalyst and method which permit the removal of unwanted chlororganic parts to the greatest extent by sparing additionally present gases such as fluorocarbon in order to make very expensive reprocessing technology unnecessary. To this end, the invention provides a supporting material on which an active component mixture is fixed. Said active component mixture contains at least one metal composition of general formula OsaRubXcYd, in which (X) represents additional metals of subgroup VIII of the periodic table of elements; (Y) represents metals of subgroups III or IV and rare-earth metals; (a) represents a number ranging from 0 to 100; (b) represents a number ranging from 0 to 100; (c) represents a number ranging from 0 to 100; and (d) represents a number ranging from 0 to 100, whereby (a) plus (b) cannot equal zero.

Abstract: A plasma processor for a workpiece includes a coil for supplying an r.f. exciting field through a window to a plasma in a vacuum chamber. A powered non-magnetic metal member between the coil and plasma couples the field to the plasma. In first and second embodiments, the metal member is respectively (1) a plate abutting a face of the window inside the chamber and (2) a thin film on an interior face of the window. In a third embodiment, the plate and film are both used. All embodiments help to ignite the plasma. The second embodiment increases plasma stability and prevents window clouding by ionized plasma particles. Metal from the plate is sputtered as a deposit onto the workpiece. The third embodiment enables substantially simultaneous depositing and cleaning.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for increasing a data throughput in a data transmission via a communication network. In this respect the data packets are examined for redundant data packets on the link layer (5). In case of a temporary transmission failure, the transmission of unacknowledged data packets is repeated on the transport layer (1). Said data packets are provided to the link layer (2). It is the task of the link layer to examine whether the released data packet is a redundant data packet of a data packet already present on the link layer (5). If the redundancy of the data packets is found, the redundant data packet is discarded (7). The data packet is stored on the link layer, if either no data packets are already present on the link layer (4) or if the data packets are not redundant (8).

Title: Dual-frequency electrosurgical instrument
Inventor: GARITO JON C
IPC: A61B18/12
Filed: 1999-04-30
Abstract: An electrosurgical instrument that is capable of generating high-quality RF energy at a
first frequency best suited for delicate, precise, and quick-healing cutting procedures with low
leakage currents using a unipolar handpiece, and also provides high-quality RF energy at a
second frequency best suited for coagulation for use with a bipolar handpiece. In a preferred
embodiment, the first frequency is in the range of about 3.8-4.0 Mhz, and the second
frequency is in the range of about 1.7-2.0 Mhz. The instrument is preferably configured so
that both a unipolar handpiece and a bipolar handpiece can be used during a surgical
procedure, though not at the same time, without having to activate any switches on the
instrument. This has the advantage of providing the surgeon all the benefits of both
electrosurgical modes while not jeopardizing the crucial sterile field.

Inventor: BROOKS ROBERT CECIL
IPC: C12N1/06
Filed: 1999-06-01
Abstract: Cell lysis may be brought about by contacting a
suspension of cells with a lysis reagent such as sodium
hydroxide solution; subsequent treatment enables organic
molecules such as plasmid DNA to be separated from other
cell components. Intimate mixing of the cell suspension
with lysis reagent is achieved by passage through a
fluidic vortex mixer (18) arranged so the residence time
of the cell suspension in the mixer (18) is less than the
time for lysis to be completed, and may be less than 0.1
seconds. Such a vortex mixer (18) comprises a cylindrical
chamber with an axial outlet duct and at least one
tangential inlet duct, but with no internal baffles. The
low shear stress to which the cell suspension is
subjected minimizes loss of product through denaturation
or fragmentation of the product, and indeed of
contaminants. The subsequent treatment may also utilise
a fluidic vortex mixer (32).
