Abstract: The invention relates to a mixed photonic lock structure having intelligent identification and a method thereof. It comprises a mixed photonic key inserted into a mixed photonic lock body. A power supply unit of the mixed photonic lock body supplies the required power to the mixed photonic lock body and the mixed photonic key. An infrared (IR)-LED in the mixed photonic lock body emits a corresponding signal to an infrared photo detector (IR-PD) in the mixed photonic key. When the comparison conducted by a signal comparison circuit of the mixed photonic key matches, a RGB-LED emits a light signal password to a RGB PD of the mixed photonic lock body to control the lock to unlock after the comparison conducted by a signal comparison circuit of the mixed photonic lock body matches.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of removing metals from a fossil fuel comprising the steps of contacting the fossil fuel with a biocatalyst selected from the group consisting of an enzyme which degrades porphyrin molecules under conditions suitable for the removal of the metals from the fossil fuel; and separating the metals from the fossil fuel. Preferred embodiments of the biocatalyst include heme oxygenase and cytochrome C reductase, such as cytochrome C reductase from Bacillus megaterium, Catharanthus roseuse, Escherichia coli, animal cells, plant cells or yeast cells. The cytochrome C reductase can be contacted with the fossil fuel in an aqueous medium as a substantially cell-free preparation or cell preparation. In one embodiment of the invention, the metals are recovered from the resulting metal containing stream.
