20100031398 | GENES ENCODING CHAVICOL/EUGENOL SYNTHASE FROM THE CREOSOTE BUSH LARREA TRIDENTATA - Particular aspects provide novel methods for redirecting carbon allocation in plants or cell culture from lignification to inherently more useful and tractable materials, and to facilitate the generation of, e.g., biofuels from the remaining plant roculture biomass. Particular aspects provided novel methods for converting monolignols into allyl/propenyl phenols, and for chavicol/eugenol formation or production. Additional aspects relate to the discovery of novel chavicol/eugenol synthases that convert p-coumaryl/coniferyl alcohol esters into chavicol/eugenol, and to novel compositions (e.g., novel proteins and nucleic acids encoding same), and novel methods using same for producing or forming chavicol/eugenol and other derivatives in cell culture and/or genetically modified plants, and for re-engineering the composition of plant biomass. Particular aspects provide novel methods for generation in culture or in planta of liquid/combustible allyl/propenyl phenols, and these phenolic products are utilized for (non-ethanol) biofuel/bioenergy purposes, while the remaining plant biomass facilitates the generation of other biofuels. | 02-04-2010 |
20130318653 | AROGENATE DEHYDRATASES AND LIGNIFICATION - Provided are methods for decreasing carbon flow into lignin in plants, comprising reducing or eliminating, using mutagenesis and/or recombinant means, expression and/or activity of at least one chloroplast-localized arogenate dehydratase (ADT) sufficient to reduce phenylalanine (Phe) availability for metabolism into Phe-derived phenylpropanoids, wherein the amount, level or distribution of lignin is reduced relative to control plants. In particular aspects, the plant has a plurality of chloroplast-localized ADTs, and reducing or eliminating comprises reducing or eliminating expression and/or activity of at least two of the plurality of ADTs. Also provided are recombinant plants or parts or cells thereof, comprising at least one mutation, genetic alteration or transgene that reduces or eliminates the expression and/or activity of at least one chloroplast-localized ADT, wherein the amount, level or distribution of lignin is reduced relative to normal. Further provided are reduced lignin plant products. | 11-28-2013 |

20130074302 | METHOD OF SEGMENTING IRRADIATED BOILING WATER REACTOR CONTROL ROD BLADES - A method of reducing the volume of a blade section of a boiling water reactor control rod for transport or storage that cuts the control rod spline into four substantially equal longitudinal sections, with each longitudinal section including one control rod blade. Each longitudinal section is radiologically characterized and the locations of desired lateral segmentation are identified. A band of malleable metal is wrapped around each longitudinal section at each of the locations and the bands are sheared to separate segments of the longitudinal section and the ends of the bands are crimped at the point of shearing to seal the interior of the segments. | 03-28-2013 |
20130077729 | METHOD OF SEGMENTING AND PACKAGING IRRADIATED COMPONENTS - A method of segmenting and packaging an irradiated hardware component for storage or shipment. Radiological and physical characteristics of the components are first mapped over its surface. A segmenting plan and a loading plan is then determined that sets forth where over the surface of the components lateral segments are to be made from a map obtained from the mapping step taken into consideration any licensing restrictions and requirements of the facility in which the casks is to be stored with the view to maximizing the loading of the casks. The irradiated components are then segmented in accordance with the segmenting plan and loaded into the casks in accordance with the loading plan. | 03-28-2013 |
20130129032 | METHOD TO REDUCE THE VOLUME OF BOILING WATER REACTOR FUEL CHANNELS FOR STORAGE - A method of reducing the volume of a boiling water reactor fuel channel for storage in which the fuel channel is sealed with an outer sleeve that is closed at its upper and lower ends. The sleeve, which is made of a malleable metal is then laterally compacted and sheared into segments suitable for transport and/or storage. | 05-23-2013 |
20130279641 | METHOD TO EXTRACT TRITIUM FROM IRRADIATED BOILING WATER REACTOR CONTROL ROD BLADES - A method for extracting tritium from irradiated boiling water reactor control rods that have cruciform-shaped. Bands of a malleable metal are wrapped around the flat portions of the blades, one band near the top of each blade panel and a second band near the bottom. The bands are crimped and an inlet penetration is formed through one of the bands and the panel and an outlet penetration is formed through the second band and the panel. A termination of each end of a closed loop conduit is sealably connected to the inlet and outlet for transporting a carrier gas through the interior of the panel. The carrier gas passing through the interior transports the tritium out of the panel to a tritium getter filter to capture the tritium. The carrier gas then recirculates through the system. | 10-24-2013 |
