Abstract: The present invention provides for heterologous expression of termite and termite- associated symbiont cellulases.  The cellulases can, for example, be codon-optimized and expressed in yeast host cells, such as the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.  The cellulases can also be co-expressed in host cells with other cellulases.  The expression in such host cells of the termite and termite-associated symbiont cellulases, and variants and combinations thereof, result in yeast with improved cellulosic activity.  Thus, such genes and expression systems are useful for efficient and cost-effective consolidated bioprocessing systems.

Title: Lead-oxide battery plate with nonwoven glass mat
Inventor: OBERNYER KRISTIN F G
IPC: H01M4/82
Filed: 2011-05-25
Abstract: Provided is a lead-oxide pasted battery plate comprising a lead alloy grid, lead oxide paste and a nonwoven glass fiber mat. The nonwoven glass mat is comprised of glass fibers having a diameter greater than 10 microns, a binder for the glass fibers, and a third component. The third component can comprise cellulosic fibers, glass micro-fibers, polymeric fibers, fillers or mixtures thereof.

Title: Systems and method for determining carbon credits utilizing two-way devices that report power usage data
Inventor: FORBES JOSEPH W
IPC: G05D3/12
Filed: 2010-05-20
Abstract: A load management system controller employs a method for determining carbon credits earned as a result of a control event in which power is reduced to at least one service point serviced by a utility. The controller is located remotely from the service point(s) and determines power consumed over time by at least one device located at the service point(s) to produce power consumption data. The controller stores the power consumption data. At some later point in time, the controller initiates a control event and determines an amount of power reduced during the control event based on the stored power consumption data. The controller also determines a generation mix for power that would have been supplied to the service point(s) if the control event had not occurred. The controller then determines a quantity of carbon credits earned based at least on the amount of power reduced and the generation mix.

Filed: 2012-03-08
Abstract: A system and method to extract heat energy from underground heat sources, then transport that heat to the surface in the form of a high temperature liquid or gas, and deliver the contaminant-free heat energy to a surface user of heat. The heat captured in the working fluid of the system is gained by heat transfers and can be extracted from the in situ combustion of any oil sands, heavy oil, conventional or unconventional oil, bitumen, coal, conventional or unconventional natural gas, methane or oil shales, or from an existing or a still hot but expired SAGD (steam assisted gravity drainage), COGD (combustion overhead gravity drainage) or THAI (toe heel air injection) operation, or from volcanic magma vents and chambers that still contain significant heat. Heat may also be derived from any form of accelerated enthalpic degradation (AED) of a suitable deposit at depth. The invention creates a closed circulation system, in which the working fluid and steam circulating in the system are protected from any direct contact with the hydrocarbon reservoir, and gases produced by the in situ combustion are sequestered in the reservoir by the overlying overburden.
