Abstract: A system and method removes bound water from partially dewatered sludge by cavitating the partially dewatered sludge mixture with air bubbles; irradiating the cavitated partially dewatered sludge with an electron beam to create ozone within air bubbles; and filtering the water from the irradiated cavitated partially dewatered sludge.

Abstract: A system and method converts first carbon chain condensable fractions of wet natural gas, the first carbon chain fractions having first carbon chains, into liquefiable highly-branched hydrocarbons by cavitating first carbon chain condensable fractions of wet natural gas with natural gas; irradiating the natural gas cavitated condensable fractions of wet natural gas with an electron beam to create second carbon chain fractions; mixing the second carbon chain fractions with natural gas enriched with alkynes and alkenes to a create enriched natural gas and second carbon chain fractions mixture; irradiating the enriched natural gas and second carbon chain fractions mixture with an electron beam to create an irradiated gas mixture; cooling the irradiated gas mixture; and removing liquefied highly-branched hydrocarbons.

Abstract: An acoustic noise canceling microphone arrangement and processor that uses a principal microphone and other microphones that may be incidentally or deliberately located in the vicinity of the principal microphone in order to derive an audio signal of enhanced signal-to-background noise ratio. In one implementation, the principal and incidental microphones comprise the microphone built into a mobile phone and the microphone built into a Bluetooth headset.

Abstract: Antiviral compositions comprising a modified nuclease, or a plurality of such modified nucleases having at least one non-natural amino acid residue substituted for a naturally occurring amino acid in a parent nuclease are provided, as are methods of use and kits providing unit dosages of such compositions.

Abstract: A system or method converts long carbon chain fractions of crude oil into highly-branched liquefiable hydrocarbons by cavitating long carbon chain fractions of crude oil with natural gas. The cavitated long carbon chain fractions of crude oil are irradiated with an electron beam in combination with an electron beam sustained non-thermal plasma discharge to create short carbon chain fractions. The short carbon chain fractions are enriched with natural gas and irradiated with an electron beam in combination with an electron beam sustained non-thermal plasma discharge. The irradiated gas mixture is cooled so that the liquefiable highly-branched hydrocarbons can be removed.

Abstract: A system or method for removing undesired organic material or particulates, such as crude oil, from water, cavitate the mixture with air; irradiate the jet sprayed cavitated mixture with an electron beam or an electron beam sustained non-thermal plasma discharge to create ozone and free radicals within air-oil-in-water-emulsion; and filter the water from the irradiated mixture.
