Abstract: A solid-state imaging device includes: an imaging region including a plurality of light-receiving parts; a first transfer section provided on the imaging region and transferring, in a first direction, signals generated by the light-receiving parts; a second transfer section provided at a first side of the imaging region and transferring, in a second direction intersecting the first direction, the signals transferred from the first transfer section; an output circuit for outputting the signals; and bonding pads provided at the first side of the imaging region with the second transfer section sandwiched between the imaging region and the bonding pads. The bonding pads are arranged in a plurality of rows each extending in the second direction. Each of the bonding pads in one of the rows at least partially overlaps one of the bonding pads in another one of the rows when viewed in the first direction.

Abstract: A process for producing unsaturated and saturated free fatty acid from trap oils, trap greases, brown greases and grease trap waste as starting material. The process consist in subjecting the starting material to a pretreatment, a first purification step, a fractional step, a second purification step and eventually a hydrogenation step. Methyl esters of unsaturated and saturated free fatty acids, oleic acid and stearin is obtained from this process.
