Patent number: 11896566Abstract: This invention relates to a naproxen formulation suitable for encapsulation into a soft gel dosage unit by increasing the stability, concentration, and bioavailability of naproxen. Fill formulations of the invention may include other active pharmaceutical ingredients and combinations of two or more active pharmaceutical ingredients. This invention also provides for adjusting pH values of fill formulations without additional process steps. A process for increasing the achievable concentration of an active NSAID pharmaceutical ingredient, such as naproxen, relative to fill composition for dosage units is also provided. The highly concentrated formulation of this invention permits a reduction in the fill volume or dosage unit size, or an increase in concentration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient per dosage form. The invention also relates to a formulation of optimal stability suitable for supporting a fill composition compatible with the soft gel dosage unit.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2019Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: Catalent Ontario LimitedInventors: John Lopez, Peter Draper, Sankalp Vashishtha, Nancy Klassen, Christina Armstrong

Patent number: 11306978Abstract: A grey water heat recovery apparatus has first and second passes in counter-flow orientation. The hot side is grey water. The cold side is fresh water. It extracts heat from the grey water. The fresh water is carried in tubing bundles in series immersed in grey water sumps in cylindrical plastic, mild steel, or stainless steel pipe. Both ends of the fresh water bundle assembly extend from the same upper end pipe closure, without a pressurized line wall penetration in the walls of the pipe. There is a non-electrically conductive barrier between the fresh water and grey water flow paths. The apparatus has a leak detection circuit and co-operable bypass valves. The tube bundle is wider at the top than at the bottom. The lower manifold has grey water passages between the centering ears. The entire assembly is enclosed in a unitary external housing with easily accessible connection fittings.Type: GrantFiled: January 2, 2019Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: 2078095 Ontario LimitedInventors: Vicente Gil, John Gil, Camilo Gil, Adelino Ribeiro, David Ribeiro
