Abstract: A system for ranging between a target well and a ranging well using unbalanced magnetic fields. The system comprises a current injection path associated with a target well casing. The current injection path is configured to generate a first magnetic field. A return path is coupled to the current injection path. The return path is configured to generate a second magnetic field such that the first and second magnetic fields are unbalanced with respect to each other. The unbalanced magnetic fields can be measured and used to range with the target well.

Abstract: The present invention teaches a method for reducing pour-off in instant rice product by coating cooked rice prior to drying with instant rice fines, said instant rice fines having a granulation of -20 m+80 m and is applied in amounts up to 2% by weight of the instant rice.

Abstract: A process for whipping an homogenized emulsion comprised of fat, protein, emulsifier, stabilizer and water. The emulsion is aerated in a continuous mixer. The aerated emulsion is then pressure reduced in a gradual manner and whipped under pressure. The whipped emulsion is then reduced to atmospheric pressure wherein the temperature of the whipped emulsion upon reaching atmospheric pressure is from about 46.degree. F. to 60.degree. F.

Abstract: A beverage-bottling method for non-carbonated beverages. An inert gas, other than carbon dioxide, such as nitrogen, is injected into a non-carbonated beverage prior to filling a container. Inert gas is permitted to escape from the beverage in the filled container before sealing the container. The amount of gas released is sufficient to strip dissolved oxygen from the beverage and then purge air from the headspace of the container. Sufficient gas is retained in the beverage to exert a superatmospheric pressure after the container is sealed. The reduction in oxygen content of the headspace is superior to that achieved with using a stream of nitrogen purging gas into the headspace, while dissolved oxygen is substantially reduced and internal container pressure is increased, the latter being a distinct advantage in containers made of flexible material such as sheet metal and plastic.
