  • Patent number: 9543593
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrode compartment for an electrochemical cell, including a bicontinuous micro-e?ulsion, wherein catalytic parts are generated in-situ in a fluid, which can act as a cathode as well as an anode. The electrode compartment comprises a connection to supply fuel or an oxidator, for example oxygen, to the compartment. The electrode compartment is part of a refreshing system with a reserve container for an emulsion and a storage container for used emulsion, conduits to connect each of the containers with the electrode compartment and a transport unit, for example a pump, to move the emulsion.

  • Patent number: 7016865
    Abstract: A system and method for conveying information about a personalized product are disclosed. A web server processes product personalization information for a vendor. The web server accepts the personalization that a customer has provided and performed on a product. The web server further accepts a submission from the customer for an order for the production of that personalized product. The web server determines the vendors capable of producing the personalized product and may accept either customer selection of a vendor or automatic selection of a vendor to produce the personalized item. The web server can describe the personalized product in a manner consistent with a data specification or a production request format as defined by the vendor.
