Publication number: 20240043189Abstract: A fresh produce package includes a laminated polymer film having water transport windows that impart a limited, controlled water vapor transport rate (MVTR), thereby avoiding produce desiccation, while also avoiding excess moisture pooling. The film comprises a low MVTR layer, such as heat-sealable PET, laminated to a high MVTR layer, such as nylon, PLA, or cellulose. The film includes lamination gaps, for example created using an adhesive spray-blocking mask or an adhesive-applying roller with insets. A cutting device, such as a laser or die-cutter, forms moisture transport windows (MTWs) by cutting out panels of the low MVTR layer in the gaps while leaving the high MVTR layer in place. Container seams can be formed by heat sealing of the low MVTR layer to itself, or to an underlying tray. The film can be gas-impermeable, and can include microperforations to establish a modified gas atmosphere within the package.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: Windham Packaging, LLCInventor: Elizabeth Varriano-Marston

Publication number: 20240043354Abstract: A system and method produce industrial hydrocarbons and other molecules in three coordinated reactors using nuclear process heat. A nuclear reactor generates heat via a nuclear process, and this heat is physically carried to one or both of the other reactors via a thermal medium. A gasification reactor uses the nuclear heat for a gasification process that converts biomass, e.g. cellulose or other polysaccharides, into gaseous hydrogen and carbon monoxide (i.e. syngas). The gasification process may be anaerobic, without requiring addition of purified or atmospheric oxygen or consumption of input biomass to provide the process heat. The syngas is carried to a Fischer-Tropsch reactor for conversion into desired output molecules, such as aviation or diesel fuel or carbon fibers, according to a selected chemical process.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: The Earthineering Company LLCInventor: Kevin Peter HICKERSON

Publication number: 20240047058Abstract: A method for remotely updating the behavior and state of a medical device or the firmware itself of a medical device, not requiring physical access to the device, that occurs through an encrypted and authenticated communication channel. The behavior and state of the device may be modified from a healthcare provider interface through a transmission method. The firmware of the medical device may be modified by the use of over the air device firmware updates, created from a designated secure machine called a build machine described herein. Both actions are transmitted to a server and then forwarded to a companion device and are particularly designed so that the server never stores sensitive cryptographic material in the event of server compromise. The companion device forwards the update to the medical device, which decrypts and validates the update or command before performing the change.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: CraniUS LLCInventors: Conner DELAHANTY, Tiger GAO, Maximilian ZINKUS, Simone BLISS, Rahul GANGWANI, Isaac LEFKOVITZ, Vivian LOOI, Aayush GANDHI, Owen FRIESEN, John CAI
