Filed: 2011-11-15
Abstract: A platform having a flexible mesh that encloses the implantation location and is connected to the bone by small "micro-implants" that may be implanted in different directions. Moreover, due to its flexibility, the form of the mesh may be adapted to the bone during implantation. The mesh may hold growth factors that promote bone growth and stabilization of the platform, making the platform an integral part of the jawbone (osteointegration). For example, a gelatinous material (patty) with growth factors may be placed between the bone and the mesh, and the mesh is tightened upon the material, so that it fills its cavities. The mesh is produced by laser sintering. Meshes and micro-implants may come in different sizes (widths, lengths) to fit different situations. Micro-implants compact the supporting bone upon entry and spare bone removal that is usually associated with implant placement.

Abstract: Materials in battery and electrochemical cells are separated in a form suitable for recycling by employing froth flotation techniques. Bulk materials, such as casings, are removed from converted battery scrap and the resultant pulp is subjected to froth flotation. Froth flotation agents, including frothers, collectors and/or depressants, are used to manipulate the hydrophilic and hydrophobic nature of the materials in the scrap. Hydrophobic materials are entrained in the air bubbles of the froth and float out of the froth flotation vessel while those that are hydrophilic remain in the vessel, thereby separating battery grid materials without resort to pyrometallurgical, energy intensive or other environmentally undesirable processes.
