The system may further include a channel carried by a drawer, and the channel is sized to permit the roller to traverse a portion of the channel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel RNA picornavirus that is called Seneca Valley virus (“SVV”). The invention provides isolated SVV nucleic acids and proteins encoded by these nucleic acids. Further, the invention provides antibodies that are raised against the SVV proteins. Because SVV has the ability to selectively kill some types of tumors, the invention provides methods of using SVV and SVV polypeptides to treat cancer. Because SVV specifically targets certain tumors, the invention provides methods of using SVV nucleic acids and proteins to detect cancer. Additionally, due to the information provided by the tumor-specific mechanisms of SVV, the invention provides methods of making new oncolytic virus derivatives and of altering viruses to have tumor-specific tropisms.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relate to removal of mercury from crude oil. Such removal relies on transferring mercury from a liquid hydrocarbon stream to a natural gas stream upon contacting the liquid hydrocarbon stream with the natural gas stream. Processing of the natural gas stream after used to strip the mercury from the liquid hydrocarbon stream removes the mercury from the natural gas stream.

Abstract: A support impregnated with selenium and capable of effectively removing a heavy metal from a process stream that is at an ambient temperature or is at an elevated temperature.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for removing mercury from a liquid hydrocarbon stream by contacting the mercury-containing liquid hydrocarbon stream with ferrous halide at moderate temperatures and without preheating the liquid hydrocarbon stream, or subjecting the liquid hydrocarbon stream to a heat treating step, immediately prior to contact with the ferrous halide particles.

Abstract: A process for removing mercury from an aqueous stream using a supported selenium and sulfur material is disclosed.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for removing heavy metals from a hydrocarbon gas stream by contacting the hydrocarbon gas stream, which contains a heavy metal and less than 10 ppm oxidizing compounds, with a composition containing a molecular sieve and sulfur resulting in a treated stream containing less heavy metal than the hydrocarbon gas stream; wherein the molecular sieve contains alumina, silica, and iron, and optionally copper and zinc. Optionally, the hydrocarbon gas stream can also contain a sulfur compound.

Abstract: A novel impact and blast resistant window is presented. A surface of a window pane that is adjacent to an interior of a building has a durable transparent polymer film coated or adhered thereto. The surface of a window pane that is adjacent to an interior of a building is sealed to the sash by double sided tape. The resulting window produces an unexpected ability for the durable transparent polymer film to retain pieces of broken glass driven toward the interior of the building by a missile striking an exterior of the window, without the durable transparent polymer film pulling loose from the window sash.

Abstract: A process for decreasing the level of elemental mercury contained in a crude oil at the well site by separating the crude oil stream into a gaseous hydrocarbon stream containing hydrocarbons, mercury and water, and a liquid hydrocarbon stream containing hydrocarbons and elemental mercury; removing mercury from the gaseous hydrocarbon stream in a mercury removal unit, thereby forming a treated gas stream; contacting a recycle gas stream comprising a portion of the treated gas stream with at least a portion of the liquid hydrocarbon stream for transfer of at least a portion of the elemental mercury contained in the liquid hydrocarbon stream to the recycle gas stream; thereby forming a mercury rich gas stream, and a treated liquid hydrocarbon stream; and passing the mercury rich gas stream, along with the gaseous hydrocarbon stream, to the mercury removal unit, is disclosed.

Abstract: Briefly, therefore the present invention is directed to a novel method of making a double glazed impact resistant window. The method includes forming a window sash that delineates a mounting space for mounting a first pane and a second pane opposite and parallel to and spaced apart from each other and adhering or coating at least two layers of a durable transparent polymer film to a surface of the first pane such that the at least two layers are not adhered or coated in directions that are parallel to one another. The method further includes conforming the pane to the size and shape of the mounting space, mounting the first pane in the mounting space with the non-film covered surface of the pane directly adjacent the sash, conforming the second pane to the size and shape of the mounting space, wherein the second pane is free of the durable transparent polymer film, and mounting the second pane in the mounting space.
