Patent CA-2121034-A1 (CA)
Title: Separation of phytate and manganese from plant protein and dietary fiber using alumina
Inventor: MAZER TERRENCE B
IPC: A23L11/30
Filed: 1992-12-17
Abstract: A method for separating phytate and manganese from protein and dietary fiber involves treatment of an aqueous slurry of phytate-containing material at a low pH with insoluble alumina. In a batch treatment process the pH of the solution is increased, leaving phytate units attached to the alumina while freeing the protein and dietary fiber. In a column treatment process, the column containing alumina is rinsed, after the low pH treatment, with dilute acid and water to recover the protein and/or dietary fiber. This method may be employed either during the manufacture of protein and fiber isolates from flour or flakes, or for removing phytate from commercially available protein and fiber commodities. The spent alumina may be readily regenerated and reused. The method of separating manganese from rice protein using this same technology is also discussed.

Title: A method of manufacturing cast products which are cast in a single-piece structure having an inhomogeneous graphite structure
Inventor: BACKERUD STIG L
IPC: C21C1/10
Filed: 1993-04-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a single-piece cast product having an inhomogeneous distribution of the graphite crystals in vermicular and nodular form in different parts of the finished cast product. This is achieved by adjusting the composition and physical properties of the melt or the local nucleating potential, so that the melt, in dependence on solidification time and/or the local nucleating potential, will solidify with a larger proportion of vermicular graphite crystals in those parts of the casting in which a vermicular structure is desired. In those parts in which a higher proportion of nodular graphite crystals is desired at a correspondingly smaller proportion of vermicular graphite crystals in those parts where a nodular graphite structure is desired by adjusting the local nucleation potential, it is ensured that heat is transported more rapidly away from the casting during solidification, either by providing the casting with thin sections or by placing heat-absorbing elements in the mould.  The method is particularly suited for the manufacture of engine parts and power transmission parts of automotive vehicles.

Patent CA-2152114-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOWAGUCHI SATOSHI
IPC: H03C3/08
Filed: 1995-06-19
Abstract: In a method for generating a transmitting wave, a power supply voltage to be supplied to a transmission power amplifier is detected by a voltage detector, and a modulating signal is controlled so that a peak value of a modulated wave is lowered in accordance with a reduced amount of the power supply voltage. Since the peak value of the modulated wave input to the power amplifier is lowered, it is possible to obtain a transmitting wave without a distortion of the waveform or an increased bandwidth, even when the reduction in the power supply voltage involves the lowering of the driving capability of the power amplifier.
