20100222860Implantable Leads Having Mechanisms to Impede Over-Rotation of Fixation Mechanisms - An implantable lead includes a lead body, a header body, a fixation mechanism, a rotatable shaft and a rotation limit element. The fixation mechanism is disposed in the header body and is extendable out of the header body for securing the header body to cardiac tissue of the patient. The shaft is provided in the header body and is coupled to the fixation mechanism for translating rotational movement of the shaft into linear displacement of the fixation mechanism. The rotation limit element is disposed in the header body. The rotation limit element engages the header body once the shaft is linearly displaced by a predetermined distance with respect to the header body to prevent further rotation of the shaft and limit additional displacement of the fixation mechanism with respect to the header body.09-02-2010

20090028646System and method for treating landfill gas using landfill leachate - Embodiments of the present invention are directed to systems and methods for treating landfill gas using landfill leachate. In one embodiment of the present invention, a method includes receiving landfill leachate from at least one of a plurality of sources, and pretreating the landfill leachate to adjust at least one chemical property of at least one component of the landfill leachate. The leachate contacts landfill gas, so that at least one component of the landfill gas chemically reacts with at least one component of the landfill leachate to form a spent landfill leachate and a treated landfill gas. The method also includes recycling a first portion of the spent landfill leachate, recirculating a second portion of the spent landfill leachate to at least one of the plurality of sources, and subjecting the treated landfill gas to flare.01-29-2009
20100038594System and Method for Integrated Waste Storage - The present invention provides integrated bunker storage systems for waste streams based on the composition and characteristics of waste streams. In particular, the present invention provides a process for generating individual waste streams based on a set of material characteristics. According to the system and method of the present invention, individual waste streams from wastes stored in bunkers are mixed in a given feed ratio to generate a feed stock that will produce a desired output from a chemical conversion process, e.g., gasification. Optionally, composition data regarding the feed stock can be certified to a third party.02-18-2010
20100222917System and Method for Tagging Products for Use in Identification of the Components Therein - The present invention provides a system and method for tagging complex products for use in the identification and, optionally, segregation of the components therein. In particular, the present invention provides techniques for identifying products included in a mixed waste stream based on its product type or on the materials of which the product is comprised. According to the system and method of the present invention, if the product type or its material of construction are designated for removal from the mixed waste stream, the product is segregated, thereby enabling exclusion of such products and materials from an optimum fuel created from the remaining items in the mixed waste stream.09-02-2010

20090009573INK-JET PRINTER USING PHASE-CHANGE INK PRINTING ON A CONTINUOUS WEB - A printing apparatus includes a printing station, including at least one printhead for applying phase-change ink to the substrate, and a backing member disposed on an opposite side of the substrate substantially opposite the printhead, the backing member causing the substrate to reach a predetermined ink-receiving temperature.01-08-2009
20090060592CAMMING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING COLOR DEVELOPERS - A developer camming apparatus connected to a developer unit, including a slide, a motor, and an encoder, wherein the encoder determines a distance a developer unit is from the photoreceptor, wherein the encoder allows the developer unit to be sufficiently close to effect application of toner to the photoreceptor from the developer unit, but also does not allow the developer unit to contact the photoreceptor during a print job.03-05-2009

20090303305SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENCAPSULATING EDGES OF PAPER IN PRINTERS - System and method for encapsulating edges of a paper in digital printing systems. A spray applicator can include a set of stationary sprayers with spray nozzles, a set of transfer rollers and an inkjet print head. The stationary sprayers can be positioned at both marginal ends of the paper. The stationary sprayers apply the fluid through the spray nozzles at edges of the moving paper to encapsulate the edges of the paper such that loose paper fibers and debris are bound to the paper. The fluid can be applied when the transfer rollers can pass the moving paper through a printer or printing press. Thus, the system can protect various subsystems of the printer or printing press against contamination due to the loose paper fibers and debris.12-10-2009
