Publication number: 20240099850Abstract: A method of surgically treating a patient suffering from severe pain and disability of the low back and buttock by stabilizing the patient's spinal column to their pelvis with an implant system including surgical tools and an implant designed to prevent movement between the sacrum and the ilium while being able to attach to a spinal fusion rod which connect to pedicle screws implanted in the bones of the spine of the patient in order to offer lasting relief of the patient's symptoms. The system is designed to address complications in adult spinal deformity by optimizing spinopelvic fixation vis-à-vis the unique biomechanics of the SI joint. The sacropelvic system is a surgical solution which provides an additively manufactured implant at the base of the spine employing an S2AI trajectory while utilizing assisting technologies including surgical navigation and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: JCBD, LLCInventors: Edward Jeffrey Donner, Christopher Thomas Donner

Patent number: 11926850Abstract: The present invention relates to genetically modified yeasts that can use lactate as a carbon source to produce a fermentation product. In one aspect, the yeasts can consume glucose and lactate simultaneously to produce ethanol. In one aspect, the genetically modified yeast is transformed to include a monocarboxylic/monocarboxylate transporter. In one aspect, the yeast can include one or more heterologous genes encoding lactate dehydrogenase (cytochrome) (EC 1.1.2.3 and/or 1.1.2.4).Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: CARGILL, INCORPORATEDInventors: Arlene M.

Publication number: 20230183869Abstract: Nation-modified electrodes for the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to hydrocarbon products. Depending on the thickness of the Nation membrane and its admixture with other polymers, CO2 reduction occurs principally at the electrode-polymer interface. A Nation overlayer of 15 ?m on a Cu electrode enables an extraordinarily high yield of CH4 production (88% Faradaic efficiency) at a low overpotential (540 mV). Other embodiments directed to admixtures of Nation and other polymers and/or cocatalysts, various metal substrates and electrolyte solutions which comprise an aprotic solvent in addition to a bicarbonate solution show impact on the Faradaic efficiency, yield and carbon-based products produced by the present invention.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2021Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Hanqing Pan, Christopher Jeffrey Barile

Patent number: 10995025Abstract: A liquid flow distribution system comprises a flow chamber and a rotor. The flow chamber has a flow chamber inlet, a flow chamber outlet and a chamber flow path extending from the flow chamber inlet to the flow chamber outlet. The flow chamber path is curved so as to generate a generally vortical flow in liquid passing through the chamber flow path. The rotor has a plurality of rotor blades rotatably mounted about a rotor axis. The rotor is mounted in proximity to the flow chamber outlet and positioned such that a flow of liquid exiting the flow chamber outlet impacts one or more of the rotor blades to rotationally drive the rotor. Rotational driving of the rotor in turn disperses liquid impacting the rotor blades.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2017Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: BIOGILL ENVIRONMENTAL PTY LIMITEDInventors: Mark John Smith, John David West, Jeremy Michael Wilson, Christopher Jeffrey Locker

Patent number: 10494697Abstract: A method of selectively removing impurities from a scandium-containing feed solution includes contacting an aqueous scandium-containing solution with an organic solvent stream containing an extractant, thereby forming a loaded organic solvent stream containing the impurity or impurities while leaving the scandium in the raffinate. The aqueous stream containing the scandium is washed, diluted and has inorganic salts added before being contacted with a second organic solvent stream to extract the scandium selectively, and followed by stripping the scandium from the scandium-containing loaded organic extractant stream by adding oxalic acid to the loaded organic extractant stream to form scandium oxalate.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2018Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: BLOOM ENERGY CORPORATIONInventors: Lunzhi Liao, Christopher Jeffrey Hartley, Justin McAllister, Andrew Sarmiento
