Patent number: 11400461Abstract: A device for triboelectric charging of a mixture of granules of different materials, the device having a charging chamber with walls delimiting an inner space. The walls define a granule inlet and a granule outlet, the granule inlet and the granule outlet being separated from one another relative to an elevation direction. A blowing device is arranged suitable for generating, in the inner space, an air flow suitable for allowing the granules in the chamber to form a fluidized bed, and a plurality of grids are positioned in the chamber, the grids being suitable for blocking the passage of the granules, the grids forming a set of baffles in the inner space between the granule inlet and the granule outlet.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2020Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: SKYTECHInventor: Pierre Sommen

Patent number: 11260402Abstract: An electrostatic separation device (is for a mixture of granules of different materials. The device includes a separation chamber having an inlet and delimiting an inner volume and a collection device for granules placed in the inner volume, opposite the inlet. At least two pairs of electrodes are successively placed in the elevation direction in the inner volume, between the inlet and the collection device. Each pair includes an anode and a cathode, placed on either side of a central axis extending in the elevation direction. At least one generating system is suitable for applying a difference in electric potential between the anode and the cathode of each pair.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: SkytechInventor: Pierre Frédéric Claude Sommen

Patent number: 7495081Abstract: Framework (FR)-patching is a novel approach to modify immunoglobulin for reducing potential immunogenicity without significant alterations in specificity and affinity. Unlike previous described methods of humanization, which graft CDRs from a donor onto the frameworks of a single acceptor immunoglobulin, we patch segments of framework (FR1, FR2, FR3, and FR4), or FRs, to replace the corresponding FRs of the parent immunoglobulin. Free assortment of these FRs from different immunoglobulins and from different species can be mixed and matched into forming the final immunoglobulin chain. A set of criteria in the choice of these FRs to minimize or eliminate the need to reintroduce framework amino acids from the parent immunoglobulin for patching is described. The approach gives greater flexibility in the choice of framework sequences, minimizes the need to include parent framework amino acids, and, most importantly, reduces the chances of creating new T- and B-cell epitopes in the resultant immunoglobulin.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2007Date of Patent: February 24, 2009Assignee: Skytech Technology LimitedInventor: Shawn Shui-on Leung
