20130222135 | Systems and Methods for Determining Container Contents, Locations, and Surroundings - Systems and methods are provided for determining whether and/or when a patient is taking his or her medication and, when appropriate, providing reminders and/or alerts to the patient to improve adherence to a medication regimen. In some embodiments, a medication container is provided that includes a capacitance sensor for sensing the contents of the medication container (e.g., pill count or quantity of liquid medication). The capacitance sensor may include interleaved or interdigitated electrodes oriented vertically, horizontally, or angularly (e.g., diagonally) relative to an axis of the medication container. Reminders and/or alerts to the patient may be triggered based at least in part on the contents of the medication container, when a cap of the container was last opened and/or closed, the location of the medication container, and/or the container's surroundings. | 08-29-2013 |
20140240094 | Systems and Methods for Determining Container Contents, Locations, and Surroundings - Systems and methods are provided for determining whether and/or when a patient is taking his or her medication and, when appropriate, providing reminders and/or alerts to the patient to improve adherence to a medication regimen.

20080318291 | Corn and fiber refining - Plant materials such as corn kernels which contain starch and fiber comprising cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin are refined. The starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin are converted to sugars which are then fermented to ethanol. Additional sources of starch and fiber are optionally added to the refining process to further increase the yield of ethanol. | 12-25-2008 |
20140273138 | Simultaneous Food And Fuel Corn Refining - Food grade products are given priority with a sustainable integrated corn based bio grind refining process. Premium fractions are fractionated for human foods and premium fermentable products. The balance food feedstocks are refined for animal feed with no loss of nutritional value. By-products of refining are used to produce ethanol and other energy products. There is no process waste. The integrated processes can be adapted to new continuous refineries or to optimize or retrofit one or more individual process steps. | 09-18-2014 |
20140273140 | Simultaneous Food And Fuel Corn Refining - Food grade products are given priority with a sustainable integrated corn based bio grind refining process. Premium fractions are fractionated for human foods and premium fermentable products. The balance food feedstocks are refined for animal feed with no loss of nutritional value. By-products of refining are used to produce ethanol and other energy products. There is no process waste. The integrated processes can be adapted to new continuous refineries or to optimize or retrofit one or more individual process steps. Plants located in remote growing areas can be pre-fabricated and shipped for operating of smaller plants utilizing batch and manual operation of one or more key steps or be continuous, automated, and operated simultaneous with food grade fractionated pre-ethanol process followed by cellulose processing for additional yield. | 09-18-2014 |
