Abstract: A process for the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with low carbon intensity. The jet fuel is produced from the reaction of hydrogen from the electrolysis of water with captured carbon dioxide. The hydrogen and carbon dioxide are reacted to product a stream comprising carbon monoxide. Hydrogen and carbon monoxide are reacted to produce n-alkanes. Alkanes are hydroisomerized to produce sustainable aviation fuel with low carbon intensity.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are provided of antenna housing assemblies. In an exemplary embodiment, an assembly generally includes a radome having an outer surface, an inner surface, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end. A top cap is coupled to the first end of the radome via an ultrasonic weld joint. A first sealing member is disposed about the top cap such that the first sealing member is positioned between the top cap and the inner surface of the radome. A bottom cap is fastened to the second end of the radome via an ultrasonic weld joint. A second sealing member is disposed about the bottom cap such that the second sealing member is positioned between the bottom cap and the inner surface of the radome. Exemplary methods of assembling antenna housings are also disclosed.

Abstract: Methods and compositions useful for neuronal protection in retinal cells in vitro and the protection of mammalian cells from reactive oxygen species in vivo are provided. Ultrafine nano-size cerium oxide particles, less than 10 nanometers in diameter, have been provided to decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS) in retina tissue that generates large amounts of ROS. These reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in light-induced retina degeneration and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Cerium oxide nanoparticles have been used to promote the lifespan of retinal neurons and protect the neurons from apoptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide in vitro and in vivo. The neuronal protection in retinal cells is achieved by decreasing generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, cerium oxide particles are used to promote the longevity of retinal neurons in vitro and mammalian cells in vivo.

Abstract: The present invention includes a dispersible dietary fiber composition comprising a colloidal silicon dioxide and a substantially uncoated, fibrous, vegetable material powder that is not naturally dispersible in water, which preferably includes psyllium. Other components, such as a saccharide polymer compound (preferably maltodextrin), a preservative, and a flavorant may also be included. The present invention further includes a method for producing a readily dispersible dry dietary fiber composition by dry blending colloidal silicon dioxide and a substantially uncoated, fibrous, vegetable material powder.
