Abstract: Methods for production of ethanol, distiller's corn oil, and enhanced co-products are disclosed. Methods include obtaining a mixture of one or more co-products of an alcohol production process, which may include wet cake, performing hydrolysis of polysaccharides in the mixture to generate fermentable sugars, fermenting the fermentable sugars in the mixture to produce alcohol, distilling the mixture to remove alcohol from the mixture thereby producing alcohol-containing distillate and enhanced whole stillage, removing released oil from the fermented mixture before distillation and/or from the enhanced whole stillage after distillation, and recovering enhanced wet distiller's grains, enhanced thin stillage, and/or enhanced dried distiller's grains. Compositions disclosed herein include enhanced dried distiller's grains having a crude protein content of at least 45% on a dry weight basis and having a total fat content of less than 10% on a dry weight basis.

Abstract: A polysilicon resistor fuse has an elongated bow-tie body that is wider at the opposite ends relative to a narrow central portion. The opposite ends of the body of the fuse have high concentrations of N-type dopants to make them low resistance contacts. The upper portion of the central body has a graded concentration of N-type dopants that decreases in a direction from the top surface toward the middle of the body between the opposite surfaces. The lower central portion of the body is lightly doped with P-type dopants. The central N-type region is a resistive region.

Abstract: A fluid-powered actuator comprises a cylindrical body having a base proximate one extremity and a head proximate another extremity, a piston-rod assembly and a sensor module made of a removable cover and a position sensor. The piston-rod assembly is slidably mounted inside the cylindrical body. The base is provided with an opening adapted to accommodate the sensor therethrough. In operation, the cover seals the opening. The position sensor is mounted to an internal face of the cover so that the position sensor is operatively located inside the cylindrical body when the cover is in place. The position sensor is operative to measure a position of the piston-rod assembly. A sensor module adapted to sealably close the opening in the base comprises the position sensor mounted to an internal face of a cover structure. In operation, the position sensor is operatively located inside the actuator when the cover structure closes the opening.

Abstract: An offset print unit includes a plate cylinder having an end, a rotatable plate cylinder support supporting the end and having a first bearing surface, a blanket cylinder having a blanket cylinder end, a rotatable blanket cylinder support supporting the end and having a second bearing surface and an actuating device for rotating the plate cylinder support and the blanket cylinder support, the first and second bearing surfaces contacting during a part of the rotation of the supports. A method is also provided.

Abstract: An extended pocket type air filter formed of a single rectangular frame enclosing and locking a plurality of parallel header plates each having complementary projections and grooves on opposite edges, the complementary projections of one header fitting into the grooves of an adjacent header and securing pocket type air filter medium between them. A rivet secures ends of the frame to each other about the header plates.
