Abstract: A method for developing hydrocarbons from a subsurface formation is provided.  The subsurface formation may include oil shale. The method may include conductively heating portions of an organic-rich rock formation located in a development area, thereby pyrolyzing at least a portion of formation hydrocarbons located in a heated zone in the organic-rich rock formation into hydrocarbon fluids. The heat may be generated from one or more wellbores completed within the formation, such as by means of a resistive heating element. At least one unheated zone is preserved within the organic-rich rock formation. This leaves a portion of the development area substantially unpyrolyzed. The at least one unheated zone is sized or configured in order to substantially optimize that portion of the development area in which the organic-rich rock is pyrolyzed while controlling subsidence above the organic-rich rock formation.

Abstract: The apparatus, system and method of the invention provides a toot to measure, diagnose and retrain the ability to enjoy sound and particularly musical sound for post-lingually deafened cochlear implant recipients. The invention consists of computer driven audio and visual stimulus presentation apparatus, selected and stored musical scores, subject response apparatus, and means to access the cochlear implant which act in conjunction with fundamental components, namely:   (1) Firstly, a Sound Enjoyment Assessment Tool (SEAT), (2) Secondly, a Perceptual Discrimination Assessment Tool (PDAT) consisting of parts, 1. a pitch discrimination assessment (PA) toot, and 2. a timbre discrimination assessment (TA) tool, (3) Thirdly, a Music Perception Ability Tool (MPAT) which functions both as an assessment and as a retraining tool, and (4) Fourthly, a Timbre Perception Ability Retraining Tool (TPART).     The initial components SEAT, PDAT, and MPAT are used together principally as a composite Diagnostic Tool. When used "once through" SEAT produces a set of diagnostic scores of the patient's enjoyment of music, PDAT produces diagnostic scores of pitch and timbre discrimination ability, and MPAT produces a profile of scores related to the person's perceptual abilities related to music patterns and melodies. Repeated uses can be part of a rehabilitation program alone or in conjunction with the remainder of the invention.   The later components MPAT and TPART are additionally used as individual and composite Retraining Tools functioning as mastery-based, multi-level training systems premised on subject/system interaction in practice followed by increasing requirements for attention and complexity.

Abstract: Continuous transfer of particulate material into pressurized steam reactors is provided by "flow feeder" methods and devices. Material such as lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks are compacted into a "low density" plug, < 700 kg/m3, which provides a dynamic seal against pressurized steam through exploitation of a steam condensation zone. The rate at which the steam condensation zone moves into the "low density" plug is offset by the rate at which compacted material is fed into the pressurized reactor. Preferred devices compact material within a flow feeder chamber by use of a loading device that works against counter-pressure provided by an unloading device. Compacted material is actively disintegrated and fed into the reactor by the unloading device. In preferred embodiments, compacted material is fed in a steady-state operation in which the interface between the steam condensation zone and the low pressure inlet zone remains stationary within the flow feeder chamber.
