| 20080216396 | FUEL PELLET AND METHOD OF PRODUCING FUEL PELLET - A processed fuel pellet is disclosed, and contains a ground corn product mixed with other commodities that establish the framework for an alternative fuel source burned in pellet stoves and corn stoves. The composition is comprised preferably of about 50% ground shelled corn, about 25% wheat midds as an igniting agent, about 20% soy hulls as a bonding agent and about 5% pulverized limestone as an anti-caking agent. Said ground shelled corn can be varied in alternative embodiments up to a maximum of 75% of the corn component, and other ingredients are adjusted accordingly to provide useful compositions. The pellet produced is a more efficient, hotter burning fuel source that has a low soot output, is economical to produce and environmentally friendly, and a perfect fuel to be used in home heating. A method for producing said fuel pellet is also disclosed which will ensure proper composition and structure. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20100319245 | Fuel pellet and method of producing fuel pellet - An ignitable combustible fuel pellet and a method for manufacturing an ignitable combustible fuel pellet are disclosed. The ingredients of the fuel pellet are ground shelled corn, an igniting agent for facilitating continued combustion of the fuel pellet, a bonding agent for bonding the ingredients together, and an anti-caking agent for promoting flowability of the ingredients during the manufacture of the food pellet. The method of forming the food pellet comprises the steps of grinding shelled corn in a hammer mill, mixing the shelled corn with the other ingredients in a grinding mill, and pressing the combined ingredients in a pellet mill. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20090020696 | Membrane Interface Apparatus and Method for Analysis of Volatile Molecules by Mass Spectometry - The disclosed method and apparatus couple a membrane interface directly to a mass spectrometer at atmospheric pressure. The membrane may be in capillary or sheet form and allows the introduction of a liquid or gaseous sample to one side of the membrane while the other side of the membrane is bathed with a solution that can easily be used in an atmospheric pressure ionization source. Volatile molecules permeate through a suitable membrane such as poly-dimethyl silicone (PDMS), mix into the appropriate solvent, and are ionized. Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used in construing the claims. | 01-22-2009 |
