Abstract: Preparations of glycan therapeutics, pharmaceutical compositions, dietary supplements and medical foods thereof are provided, and methods of using said glycan therapeutics, e.g. in cancer therapy.

Abstract: A splice tray may include a tray base including a base panel and flange associated with a perimeter of the base panel and extending outward from the base panel. The splice tray may also include a flexible latch extending from an outer surface of the flange of the tray base. The latch may selectively prevent and allow the splice tray to pivot with respect to a splice tray assembly in which the splice tray is received. The splice tray may also include a splice holder configured to hold a plurality of spliced optical fibers. The splice holder may include a holder base coupled to the tray base, and a plurality of ribs associated with the holder base and defining a plurality of recesses configured to receive at least one spliced optical fiber. The splice tray may also include a cover removably coupled to the tray base and/or splice holder.

Abstract: Spirally wound electric double layer capacitor devices are generally disclosed. In some embodiments, the spirally wound electric double layer capacitor device is configured so that fluid being treated flows in an axial direction through the device.

Abstract: Miniature capacitive deionization devices and related systems and methods are generally described. The devices may be incorporated as part of a water treatment and process system. Humidifier systems comprising a humidifier unit and a capacitive deionization device fluidically coupled with the humidifier unit are also disclosed. For example, the miniature capacitive deionization devices may be incorporated into a point of use humidifier.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for treating cooling tower water with a radial deionization unit are disclosed. The radial deionization unit may alone or in conjunction with other treatment units treat a make-up water being fed to a cooling tower, in order to remove dissolved solids from the water.

Abstract: An improved process for producing a methane-enriched gas wherein a hydrogen-deficient carbonaceous material is treated with a hydrogen-containing pyrolysis gas at an elevated temperature and pressure to produce a product gas mixture including methane, carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The improvement comprises passing the product gas mixture sequentially through a water-gas shift reaction zone and a gas separation zone to provide separate gas streams of methane and of a recycle gas comprising hydrogen, carbon monoxide and methane for recycle to the process. A controlled amount of steam also is provided which when combined with the recycle gas provides a pyrolysis gas for treatment of additional hydrogen-deficient carbonaceous material.

Abstract: A method of producing high yields of olefins from hydrocarbon feedstocks which is particularly applicable to heavy hydrocarbons. In accordance with the present method, a stream of gaseous oxygen is introduced into a first reaction zone and a cocurrent flow of hydrogen is introduced about the periphery of the gaseous oxygen stream, the hydrogen being introduced at a temperature at which it will spontaneously react with the oxygen. The hydrogen and oxygen are introduced in amounts to provide a gas stream of reaction products having an average temperature within the range of from about 1,000.degree. to 2,000.degree. C. and which comprises a major amount of hydrogen and a minor amount of water vapor. The gas stream so produced is introduced into a second reaction zone and impinged upon a stream of hydrocarbon which is heated to a temperature in excess of its melting point but below the temperature at which any substantial coke or tar forms.

Abstract: Heat is stored by melting a mixture of salts contained in compartments between an inner and an outer tube and radial copper fins which taper in radial outward direction. The molten salts solidify upon passage of relatively cold water through the inner tube, but formation of salt deposits on the fins is deferred so that liquid salt interfaces directly with the fins for an extended period of time during heat extraction.
