| 20110300623 | PROCESS FOR ACCELERATED CAPTURE OF CARBON DIOXIDE - The present invention generally relates to the removal of carbon dioxide from a gas stream, particularly a flue gas, hydrogen gas from a reformer, natural gas, or gas from a cement kiln. Immobilized enzymes for use in carbon capture and other systems are also disclosed. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20110269029 | DIRECT ALCOHOL ANION FUEL CELL WITH BIOCATHODE - A biofuel cell device for generating electrical current, comprising a fuel manifold, an anode assembly, a cathode assembly, a housing, and a controller is described. The anode assembly comprises at least one catalyst positioned for contact with fuel fluid in said fuel reservoir. The cathode assembly comprises at least one biocathode positioned for flow of an oxidant to the biocathode enzyme. The housing houses the manifold, anode assembly and cathode assembly. The controller controls the output of electrical current from the biofuel cell device. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110039164 | BIOANODE AND BIOCATHODE STACK ASSEMBLIES - A biofuel cell device for generating electrical current. The device includes a fuel manifold having a face, and at least one cavity in the face defining a fuel reservoir, an inlet in fluid communication with the reservoir for flow of fuel fluid into the manifold to fill the reservoir and an outlet in fluid communication with the reservoir for flow of fuel fluid out of the manifold. The device has an anode assembly including at least one bioanode positioned for contact with fuel fluid in the fuel reservoir, and a cathode assembly including at least one cathode positioned for flow of fuel fluid through the bioanode to the cathode. The device includes a controller operatively connected to the anode assembly and the cathode assembly for controlling the output of electrical current from the biofuel cell device. | 02-17-2011 |
| 20100209968 | IMMOBILIZED ENZYMES AND USES THEREOF - The present invention generally relates to uses of immobilized enzymes. Immobilized enzymes can be used for various chemical transformations, separations, and purifications and can be used in sensors and diagnostics | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100086983 | PROCESS FOR ACCELERATED CAPTURE OF CARBON DIOXIDE - The present invention generally relates to the removal of carbon dioxide from a gas stream, particularly a flue gas, hydrogen gas from a reformer, natural gas, or gas from a cement kiln. Immobilized enzymes for use in carbon capture and other systems are also disclosed. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20090305089 | ORGANELLES IN BIOANODES, BIOCATHODES, AND BIOFUEL CELLS - Bioanodes, biocathodes, and biofuel cells comprising an electron conductor, at least one anode organelle or cathode organelle, and an organelle immobilization material. The anode organelle is capable of reacting with a fuel fluid to produce an oxidized form of the fuel fluid, and capable of releasing electrons to the electron conductor. The cathode organelle is capable of reacting with an oxidant to produce water, and capable of gaining electrons from the electron conductor. The organelle immobilization material for both the anode organelle and the cathode organelle is capable of immobilizing the organelle, and is permeable to the fuel fluid and/or the oxidant. In various embodiments, the organelle immobilization material is further capable of stabilizing the organelle. | 12-10-2009 |
