20140014179 | MULTI-LAYER, LIGHT-MODULATING DEVICES AND THE MANUFACTURER THEREOF - A light-modulating electrical device is disclosed and a method for manufacturing a light-modulating electrical device. The method includes, as a single lamination process, positioning a light-modulating electrical unit at least partially within a recess, the recess provided in a first polymer film or an optically transparent polymer film, and fixing the optically transparent polymer film to the first polymer film so as to cover the light-modulating electrical unit. In one example, the light-modulating electrical unit is comprised of two or more sub-units and is itself formed as part of the lamination process. | 01-16-2014 |
20140048423 | MULTI-LAYER WATER-SPLITTING DEVICES - Water-splitting devices and methods for manufacturing water-splitting devices or solar cells is disclosed. The method seeks to provide a relatively high-volume, low-cost mass-production method. In one example, the method facilitates simultaneous co-assembly of one or more sub-units and two or more polymer films or sheets to form a water-splitting device. According to another aspect, there is provided an improved water-splitting device. In one example form, there is provided a water-splitting device which includes a first electrode for producing oxygen gas and a second electrode for producing hydrogen gas from water. The first electrode and the second electrode are positioned between a first outer polymer layer and a second outer polymer layer, and at least one spacer layer is positioned between the first outer polymer layer and the second outer polymer layer. | 02-20-2014 |

20090084981 | High-resolution tracking of industrial process materials using trace incorporation of luminescent markers - A method of marking an industrial process material including selectively incorporating a luminescent marker onto and/or into the industrial process material in a trace amount insufficient to be optically detectable in the presence of ambient light but sufficient to be non-destructively optically detectable in and/or on the industrial proce material in situ in the field or on-site. The trace amount of the luminescent marker is used to track, identify authenticate the industrial process material for at least one of material control, inventory control, stock control, logistics control, quality control and pollution control. | 04-02-2009 |

20150292094 | GAS PERMEABLE ELECTRODES AND ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS - An electrode for a water splitting device, the electrode comprising a gas permeable material, a second material, for example a further gas permeable material, a spacer layer positioned between the gas permeable material and the second material, the spacer layer providing a gas collection layer and a conducting layer. The conducting layer can be provided adjacent to or at least partially within the gas permeable material. The gas collection layer is able to transport gas internally in the electrode. The gas permeable materials can be gas permeable membranes. Also disclosed are electrochemical cells using such an electrode as the cathode and/or anode, and methods for bringing about gas-to-liquid or liquid-to-gas transformations, for example for producing hydrogen. | 10-15-2015 |

20110305794 | MODIFIED INDUSTRIAL YEAST STRAINS - The present invention relates to modified industrial yeast strains that show reduced hydrogen sulfide production. In one embodiment the invention provides an industrial yeast strain comprising a modification in a MET5 gene and/or a MET10 gene which results in reduced hydrogen sulfide production when compared to the corresponding industrial yeast strain without the modification. The present invention also relates to methods of manufacturing these modified industrial yeast strains and their use in the production of fermented products. | 12-15-2011 |
20130045301 | METHOD FOR INOCULATING YEAST INTO FRUIT JUICE - The present invention provides a new wine yeast product in a frozen form. The product is produced in a fermenter, concentrated, cryoprotectants are added. This mixture is then frozen at −50° C. What makes this product unique is that besides the fact that it is frozen, it can be directly added to grape juice as no rehydration is required because the yeast was not dehydrated in the production process. | 02-21-2013 |
