  • Publication number: 20240165623
    Abstract: A method and an integrated device are provided for high-throughput screening of cellular libraries utilizing a droplet microfluidic-based approach. The integrated device comprises 8 or more major functionalities including droplet generation, droplet incubation, droplet reflow, droplet cleaving/generation, droplet synchronization, droplet merging, droplet detection, and droplet sorting for complex screening assays. Integration of each of the droplet functionalities onto a single chip reduces drastic changes in flow experienced at various chip-to-chip interfaces, and the possibility of error.

  • Patent number: 9080114
    Abstract: A method for producing diesel fuel with improved yield and quality by integration of fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) and hydrocracking (HC), comprising the following stages: arrangement of FCC and HC processes in parallel; feedstock segregation to each of such processes depending on the content of aromatic hydrocarbons; and a fractioning common stage for both output streams from HC and FCC processes, also comprising recycling the unconverted fraction towards the FCC unit.
