  • Publication number: 20230002250
    Abstract: A process for treating waste fluid generated during a petrochemical process. The process comprises: subjecting at least one first water-based wastewater stream to at least one freeze concentration stage so as to produce a third clean water stream and a fourth concentrated water-based wastewater stream, subjecting at least one second organic fluid-based waste fluid stream to at least one separation stage so as to produce a fifth purified product stream and a sixth concentrated organic fluid-based waste fluid stream, forwarding the fourth concentrated water-based wastewater stream and the sixth concentrated organic fluid-based waste fluid stream to an incinerator, and incinerating the streams in the incinerator. The process is controlled such that incineration of the sixth concentrated organic fluid-based waste fluid stream generates at least 70% of an energy necessary to incinerate the fourth concentrated water-based wastewater stream.

  • Patent number: 8993321
    Abstract: A blood storage container suitable for quick and efficient production of a large amount of serum while ensuring high safety, and a method of separating blood and a regenerative medical process using the same are provided. A blood component separation storage apparatus is provided for separating a plurality of blood components of blood so as to be stored therein. The blood component separation storage apparatus includes a blood reservoir for holding the blood and a component storage part connected to the blood reservoir aseptically and in an air-tight manner. The blood reservoir contains an anticoagulant which suppresses coagulation of the blood. The blood reservoir has a serum producing function to remove coagulation factors from the blood to an extent enabling use in practical applications as a serum, and the component storage part stores each blood component generated by separation of the blood in the blood reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20140301914
    Abstract: A blood storage container suitable for quick and efficient production of a large amount of serum while ensuring high safety, a method of separating blood and a regenerative medical process using the same, and a serum preparation apparatus are provided. A blood component separator is provided, which separates collected blood into a plurality of blood components and preserves them, and includes a blood reservoir and a component storage part aseptically connected in an air-tight manner. The blood reservoir has a serum producing function to remove coagulation factors from the blood. The component storage part stores each blood component in the blood reservoir. The serum preparation apparatus includes an indwelling needle, a catheter having one end connected to a base end side of the indwelling needle, a syringe capable of storing blood connected to another end of the catheter, and a blood coagulation accelerating substance stored in the syringe.

  • Publication number: 20070088283
    Abstract: A medical syringe comprising a cylindrical connection supporting member increasing the holding force of a lure inserted into a connection target. The connection supporting member is formed to be slid along the lure or a syringe body part in a state of being movable between a first position near a tip of the lure and a second position away from a tip of the lure. The syringe is characterized in that, when the connection supporting member is moved to the second position, the tip of the lure is exposed.
