  • EARMUFF ACCOMMODATING WELDING SHIELD
    Publication number: 20150342282
    Abstract: A welding helmet 10 that has a face shield 12 that has a native width NW and that has a lens 14 disposed in the face shield 12. A spreader bar 30 can expand the face shield 12 from its native width NW to an increased width IW to allow the welding shield 10 to easily accommodate earmuffs 16 worn by the welder.

  • METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR IMPROVING FERMENTATION EFFICIENCY
    Publication number: 20150152441
    Abstract: Processes, as well as associated systems, are disclosed for biological conversion of CO into desired end products such as ethanol and 2,3-butanediol. The pre-treatment of industrial gas streams comprising CO, such that the level of contaminants selected from the group comprising benzene, toluene, xylene and ethylbenzene, are maintained below a predetermined liquid level in the fermentation broth, has been shown to have positive effects on the fermentation process.

  • Alcohol production process
    Patent number: 8906655
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for optimizing the production of ethanol by microbial fermentation, particularly microbial fermentation of substrates comprising CO. The process involves monitoring the hydrogen production by the microorganism, determining an optimum hydrogen production and adjusting the substrate supply rate in response to a change in the hydrogen production thereby keeping the hydrogen production within a desired range.
