20150196046 | Animal Feed Composition - A novel and practical process to convert the oily sludge from food industry and waste water treatment into a non-oily feed product in dry and free-flowing form for animal applications is provided. The combination of an alkaline agent to encapsulate the oily sludge into a non-oily form and a particulate material to provide solid surface as a carrier is used to convert the oily sludge into a non-oily wet paste or particle form. Then a drying process with a commercial dryer is applied for producing an animal feed product in non-oily, dry and free-flowing form. The animal feed product retains a fat level, which is generally higher than normal animal feed products, but in an easily handled, non-oily, non-sticky, free-flowing and dry form. The process of the invention converts the problematic food waste sludge with oily, sticky and wet properties into the useful nutritional products with the improved properties. The process in the present invention is practical and economical to be used, which could resolve the problem from these oily sludge materials, save and create millions of dollars for food and feed industries and waste water treatment plants. | 07-16-2015 |

20110194378 | SEISMIC SOURCE SEPARATION - Seismic acquisition systems are disclosed that allow contemporaneous seismic sources to be separated from a composite signal comprising two or more constituent seismic sources. In some embodiments, a representation of the composite signal may be developed that includes a noise contribution of undesired signals present in the composite signal. Additionally, an operator, referred to herein as an “annihilator”, may be developed such that it may be conditioned and inverted to minimize undesired noise contributions in the composite signal. This inversion may assist in recovering the constituent seismic sources from the composite signal. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the accuracy with which the constituent source measurements are approximated may be increased by implementing them as random sweeps having a conventional length. | 08-11-2011 |

20080221860 | Hardware interface board for connecting an emulator to a network - A system and method are disclosed to provide an interface between an emulator and a network that is readily scalable. In one aspect, a scalable solution is achieved through a hardware interface board positioned between the network and the emulator to allow proper transfer there between. A computer is separated from and coupled to the hardware interface board and provides the necessary control signals. Because it is done in hardware separated from the computer, the interface board is readily scalable through the simple addition of network chip sets. In another aspect, the interface board can be placed in two modes of operation. One is a live test wherein the emulator and network communicate through the interface board, without the need to traverse a computer. A second is a direct test where the network is electrically disconnected from the emulator, and an application program on the computer sends packets directly to the emulator through the interface board. In yet another aspect, packet formats may be changed on the interface board so that it appears to the emulator as if the network is operating at a different data transfer speed than is actually the case. | 09-11-2008 |
