Abstract: The current invention relates to a method of separating polyunsaturated fatty acids containing lipids from a lipids containing biomass.

Abstract: The application relates to a method of and an apparatus for tucking a pair of opposing side seams (3, 4) into a body portion (2) of a hygiene pant (1), wherein the side seams (3, 4) are pushed between a front region (20) and a back region (21) of the body portion (2) a distance toward one another, and wherein the tucked side seams (3, 4) are connected in at least one connection region (7) with each other and/or to the body portion (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a packaging unit (1) for a plurality of individual products (20) combined into a group (2), comprising a plastic bag which accommodates the group (2) of individual products (20) and at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) arranged in the plastic bag or around the plastic bag, wherein the at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) covers and/or accommodates at least one of the plurality of individual products at least in some sections and wherein the at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) is produced from a material having a higher stiffness than the plastic bag.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for packaging sanitary articles such as absorbent articles, like diapers, sanitary napkins, panty liners, incontinence pads or similar, wherein by means of at least one diverter (10) batches (A, B, C, D) of articles (5) are alternately directed towards M packaging arrangements (11, 12), each batch (A, B, C, D) comprising at least one article (5), and wherein the diverter (10) alternately directs batches (A, B, C, D) of articles (5) towards the packaging arrangements (11, 12) in a repeated series of M×N batches (A-C-B-D), with N>=2, wherein at least two of the N batches(A, B) of one series of M×N batches (A-C-B-D) directed towards the first packaging arrangement (11) differ in count.

Abstract: The invention relates to a packaging unit (1) for a plurality of individual products (20) combined into a group (2), comprising a plastic bag which accommodates the group (2) of individual products (20) and at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) arranged in the plastic bag or around the plastic bag, wherein the at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) covers and/or accommodates at least one of the plurality of individual products at least in some sections and wherein the at least one stiffening element (3, 4, 5) is produced from a material having a higher stiffness than the plastic bag.

Abstract: For interim storage for stacks of plastic bags, it is proposed to wind these up with the aid of a single film, or two films, to form a roll. The bag stacks here are oriented such that their opening sides, which preferably have a tab with holes, are oriented forward, as seen in the unwinding direction. During the unwinding operation, a gripping means can grip the leading edge of the bags and feed the same to the packaging machine.

Abstract: For the space-saving packing of individual objects supplied one behind the other, it is proposed to introduce these objects between two bands and to wind up these bands under tensioning onto a core. If the objects are compressible objects, they may be compressed in the process, with the result that the amount of space required is further reduced.

Abstract: A package (1) comprising an array (3) of compressed, flexible absorbent articles (5) that have a front face (7), a back face (9), a top face (6), a bottom face (8), side faces (10), an upper section (11) and a lower section (13). The upper and lower sections have mutually different compressibilities and calipers, and the absorbent articles are placed with the front and back faces in a contacting relationship. The package comprises a flexible outer casing (19).
