Abstract: Nitrogen is rejected from a feed gas stream comprising methane and nitrogen so as to form a methane product. The feed gas is separated in a double rectification column comprising a higher pressure rectification column 14, a lower pressure rectification column 16, and a condenser-reboiler 18. Product methane is withdrawn from the column 16 by a pump 42 and is vaporised. A flow of gas is recycled from the column 16 to the column 14, being warmed in main heat exchanger 4. A first part of the warmed recycle gas being compressed in compressor 48 to a first pressure and introduced into the higher pressure rectification column 14. A second part of the warmed recycle gas is compressed in the compressor 48 and condensed in a second condenser-reboiler associated with an intermediate main exchange region of the lower pressure column 16 and is returned to the higher pressure rectification column 14. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is a prosthetic for replacement of at least a part of the nucleus of a intravertebral disc. The prosthetic device is composed of at least two substantially parallel soft layers of an elastically deformable hydrogel and at least one more rigid layer, the more rigid layer having less compressibility than the soft layers, being adjacent to the soft layers, and firmly attached to them. In some embodiments, the soft layers have the same thickness and composition. Typically, the prosthesis has more than one more rigid layer and these more rigid layers have the same thickness and composition. The number of soft layers is usually one more than the number of more rigid layers, with, e.g., at least three soft layers. The invention also includes a method of prosthesis production, which involves prefabricating soft and more rigid layers; stacking at least two prefabricated soft and at least one prefabricated more rigid layer in a substantially parallel fashion into their final form, and, permitting the layers to firmly connect to one another by mutual interaction. In this method, at least one type of the layers is prefabricated in the dehydrated state, which is done by dehydrating stretched foil in an apparatus preventing its contraction and thereby decreasing its area. There is at least partial dehydration of the prosthesis under pressure applied in a direction tangent to the planes of the layers. In preferred embodiments, while in the state of almost full dehydration, the implant is sterilized using ionizing radiation or a gaseous chemical agent, after which it is partially rehydrated within a sterile wrapper using water vapor.
