| 20110277630 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR STARTING UP PRESSURE SWING ADSORPTION ASSEMBLIES AND HYDROGEN-PRODUCING FUEL PROCESSING SYSTEMS INCLUDING THE SAME - Systems and methods for initiating startup of PSA assemblies in hydrogen-processing assemblies, which may include a hydrogen-generation assembly and/or a fuel cell stack. The systems and methods include startup procedures that provide for pressurization of the adsorbent beds of the PSA assembly without the need for a stored quantity or other supply of purified hydrogen gas. The systems and methods additionally or alternatively include startup procedures that restrict or even prevent contamination of portions of the PSA assembly, hydrogen storage devices and/or accumulator tanks with an impure gas stream and/or decrease accumulation of the impure gas stream therein. This impure gas stream may be the mixed gas, reformate, or other gas stream that is intended to be purified by the PSA assembly when the PSA assembly is in its hydrogen-purifying operating state. | 11-17-2011 |

| 20110045489 | Polymerases for Incorporating Modified Nucleotides - Compositions and methods are provided that relate to a recombinant protein with DNA polymerase activity in which one or more amino acids are mutated compared with the corresponding wild type protein. The recombinant protein is capable of incorporating one or more modified nucleotides into a nucleic acid substrate with a specific activity greater than 200. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20080248967 | Process for Evaluating a Refinery Feedstock - A process for evaluating a refinery feedstock, said process comprising: (i) providing a refinery feedstock, (ii) treating said refinery feedstock to produce an array comprising a plurality of fractions having different chemical and/or physical properties, each fraction being representative of a process stream that might be present in a refinery, and (iii) analysing each of said plurality of fractions to determine one or more chemical and/or physical properties of the fractions, said analyses being performed at least partially in parallel. In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of refinery feedstocks is evaluated, each being fractionated prior to analysis of the fractions. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20080302704 | Process For Removal Of Sulfur From Components For Blending Of Transportation Fuels - A process is disclosed for removing highly deleterious non-basic nitrogen compounds upstream from an acid catalyzed thiophene alkylation process using adsorbents capable of adsorbing the non-basic nitrogen compounds. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090100912 | Process For Evaluating Fouling Caused By Refinery Feedstocks - The fouling caused by a refinery feedstock on one or more refinery processes, said process comprising: (i) providing a plurality of refinery feedstocks and/or a plurality of fractions of one or more refinery feedstocks, (ii) providing an array comprising a plurality of metal samples representative of metallurgy present in a refinery, (iii) contacting each of the plurality of metal samples with one or more of said (iv) refinery feedstocks or fractions under non-static conditions, and determining the fouling of said refinery feedstock or fraction thereof. Preferably, the metal samples are in the form of a microfabricated array and the testing is carried out in parallel using high throughput experimentation. | 04-23-2009 |

| 20090188320 | METHOD OF AND APPARATUS FOR TESTING WOODEN POLES - A method of testing an elongate wooden element comprises injecting an input acoustic signal into the element, detecting a return acoustic signal at a surface of the element, and determining a spectral profile for the return signal. In at least a predetermined range in the spectral profile, each resonance peak is detected whose amplitude exceeds a first predetermined value, and from the resonance peaks so detected the number of higher peaks is determined whose amplitude exceeds 3 dB. For each of said higher peaks a quality factor Q is calculated, a mean quality value Q | 07-30-2009 |
