Title: Method for improving stress tolerance during fermentation
Inventor: PORRO DANILO
IPC: C12N5/10
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: A method of increasing stress tolerance in recombinant organisms that have been engineered for industrial production is described. Stress tolerance is increased by making L-ascorbic acid available to the recombinant organism, either by exogenous addition to the culture medium or by endogenous production from D-glucose by the recombinant organism. To enable endogenous production, the recombinant organism is transformed with a coding region encoding a mannose epimerase (ME), a coding region encoding an L-galactose dehydrogenase (LGDH), and a D-arabinono-1,4-lactone oxidase (ALO).  The recombinant organism may be further transformed with myoinositol phosphatase (MIP/VTC4).

Title: Power extractor circuit
Inventor: MATAN STEFAN
IPC: H01M10/46
Filed: 2005-06-30
Abstract: The present invention discloses power extractor circuit used to capture the power of a solar cell array during its less-than-optimum conditions. Under reduced incident solar radiation, the low power level supplied by the solar cell array normally would not be adequate to operating a load, but with the presence of the power extractor circuit, the low power generated by the solar panel would be accumulated to a high enough level to overcome the energy barrier of the battery or the load. The power extractor circuit preferably comprises a voltage and current booster circuit, and is designed to operated at all power levels of the solar cell array: low power level to provide the booster function during the low power period of the solar cell array, and high power level to prevent component failure during the normal operation of the solar cell array. Many power extractor circuits can also be installed in series to cover a wide range of power level of the solar cell array. The present invention power extractor circuit can also be used in other power sources to utilize the portion of power which normally would have been lost.
Patent CA-2572932-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LOURENCO JOSE
IPC: F24H3/04
Filed: 2006-12-14
Abstract: A method to pre-heat gas at gas Pressure Reducing Stations. A first step involve providing at least one electrical line heater having a flow path for passage of natural gas through electrical heating elements. A second step involves passing the high pressure cold natural gas stream along electrical heating elements and heating it up before de-pressurization. A third step involves the expansion of the high pressure heated gas in a enclosed vessel that houses a gas expander and power generator. The expansion of the gas generates shaft work which is converted into electrical power by the power generator and the expanded low pressure gas cools the power generator. This process results in the recovery of energy to replace the slipstream of natural that is presently used to pre-heat gas at Pressure Reduction Stations.
