| 20080250700 | Apparatus and Method for Bio-Fuel Production - An apparatus for the production of a bio-fuel or a bio-fuel additive from plant-derived oils, animal fats or a mixture thereof, suitable for use in a diesel engine is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a porous membrane for separating a reaction mixture from a permeate, the reaction mixture comprising an alcohol, a feedstock comprising plant-derived oils, animal fats or mixture thereof, and a catalyst for converting said feedstock to a bio-fuel or a bio-fuel additive, wherein said porous membrane is substantially impermeable to the feedstock and substantially permeable to said bio-fuel or bio-fuel additive. A method using said porous membrane in the production of a bio-fuel or a bio-fuel additive is also disclosed | 10-16-2008 |
| 20100307051 | BIODIESEL PRODUCTION USING ULTRA LOW CATALYST CONCENTRATIONS IN A MEMBRANE REACTOR - A method for producing a fuel or fuel additive comprising providing a reaction mixture comprising oil and an alcohol in an oil-in-alcohol emulsion and a catalyst for converting the oil to the fuel or the fuel additive. The oil and the alcohol are reacted in the presence of the catalyst, at a concentration below that used in a conventional batch process, to produce the fuel or fuel additive. This low level of catalyst reduces the formation of diols and oxidation products that can diminish the quality of the fuel or fuel additive. The fuel or fuel additive produced is continuously removed during the reaction, effectively de-coupling the concentration of catalyst used from the rate of the two phase reaction. | 12-09-2010 |

| 20100304393 | Genetic predictors of international normalized ratio (INR) fluctuation with warfarin therapy - There are disclosed methods and kits for identifying a subject having genetic predictors of predisposition to abnormal international normalized ratio (INR) fluctuation during warfarin therapy. In an embodiment, a method includes testing the subject to check for a presence of a predetermined genetic variation. The predetermined genetic variation is correlated with abnormal INR fluctuation during warfarin therapy. The subject is identified as having a predisposition to abnormal INR fluctuation during warfarin therapy when the testing indicates the presence of the predetermined genetic variation. In one embodiment, a kit includes a test to check the subject for a presence of a predetermined genetic variation. The predetermined genetic variation is correlated with abnormal INR fluctuation during warfarin therapy. The kit includes an indicator to identify the presence of the predetermined genetic variation so as to identify the subject as having a predisposition to abnormal INR fluctuation during warfarin therapy. | 12-02-2010 |
