Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for generating a data structure are provided. A database stores a historic version of taxonomy data and a new version of taxonomy data. A processor, operatively connected to the database, accesses the database and analyzes the historic version of taxonomy data and the new version of taxonomy data. The processor determines what changes have been made in connection with a particular reference data based on analyzing the historic version of taxonomy data and the new version of taxonomy data; creates, based on determining, an association between the historic version of taxonomy data and the new version of taxonomy data corresponding to said particular reference data; generates consistent metadata from said association; and generates a data structure that illustrates history of evolution of taxonomy in connection with said particular reference data based on the metadata.

Abstract: The present invention relates to allulose syrups, use of allulose syrups in the manufacture of food or beverage products, and food and beverage products made using the allulose syrups.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a multiple-inlet turbine casing (16) for a turbine rotor (60) which comprises a first fluid supply channel (70) configured to direct a first working fluid onto the turbine rotor (60) and a second fluid supply channel (74) configured to direct a second working fluid to impart torque on the turbine rotor (60) in the same direction as the direction in which torque is imparted on the turbine rotor (60) by the first working fluid. The first working fluid is an exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine and the second fluid may be steam and the turbine may be an inverted-Brayton-cycle turbine for recovery of waste energy from the exhaust gas of said internal combustion engine. Thus, the number of turbine rotors is reduced in comparison to a system comprising a single turbine for each distinct working fluid.

Abstract: A combined heat and power system comprises a shaft (4), a compressor (6) coupled to the shaft to compress intake gas to form compressed gas; a recuperator (10) to heat the compressed gas to form heated compressed gas; a combustor (12) to combust a fuel and the heated compressed gas to form combustion gas; a turbine (8) coupled to the shaft to expand the combustion gas to form exhaust gas; a load (24) coupled to the shaft; an exhaust outlet (18) to expel the exhaust gas to a heater for heating a fluid based on heat from the exhaust gas; a recuperator channel (28) providing a path for the exhaust gas to flow from the turbine to the exhaust outlet through the recuperator; and a bypass channel (22) providing a path for the exhaust gas to flow from the turbine to the exhaust outlet bypassing the recuperator.

Abstract: Storage, growing system and methods for storing, germinating, propagating and or growing living organisms, exemplary systems including stackable growth tray(s) containing: a drainage system, the drainage system including: an inclined growing surface, inclined in a direction to at least one drainage hole; a drainage routing structure positioned over the at least one drainage hole, and having a down-pipe and a connecting routing pipe, wherein the down-pipe is for receiving fluid from an adjacent-above stackable item and transmitting the fluid to an adjacent-below down-pipe or a drain-pipe, and the connecting routing pipe is for receiving fluid from an adjacent-above drainage hole and routing the fluid to the down-pipe, and wherein fluid propagating from the inclined growing surface or an adjacent-above stackable item is directed through the growth tray to a down-steam point in the drainage system.

Abstract: A pole system for racking, storing, germinating, propagating and growing living organisms on a growth tray, the pole system including: a substantially vertical support structure, the support structure including at least one utility system for supporting propagation or growth of a living organism; one or more vertically-spaced interface positions, each for interfacing with a growth tray; and one or more openings in the support structure, corresponding to one or more of the interface positions, for providing services to interfaced growth tray(s) is disclosed. Further, a hydroponic system and method using the pole system are disclosed.

Abstract: A combined combustor and recuperator is formed with the recuperator surrounding the combustor. Cold gas conduits (14, 16, 20) through the recuperator follow along involute paths toward the combustor. Hot has conduits (26) through the recuperator follow counterflow paths along corresponding involute curves outward from the combustor. The openings (18) in the combustion chamber wall through which cold gas enters the combustion chamber may be directed to impart flow direct to the cold gas to support particular desired behaviour of the cold gas in the portions of the combustion chamber concerned, e.g. supporting a stable vortex flame, enhancing mixing, providing a protective barrier layer.

Abstract: A method of scanning an industrial chemical vessel to monitor a chemical process within the industrial chemical vessel, the method comprising: positioning a first unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) carrying a gamma radiation source on one side of the vessel, positioning a second UAV carrying a gamma radiation detector on an opposite side of the vessel, moving the first and second UAVs to scan the vessel by passing gamma radiation through the vessel from the radiation source carried by the first UAV to the radiation detector carried by the second UAV thereby measuring a density profile, identifying a location of one or more fluid layers within the industrial chemical vessel, and determining if a chemical process within the industrial chemical vessel is operating correctly based on the location of the one or more fluid layers within the industrial chemical vessel identified using the first and second UAVs.

Abstract: A heat exchanger component comprises a core portion with alternating first and second heat exchanging channels. A first ducting portion comprises first ducting channels for transfer a first fluid between a first fluid inlet/outlet and the first heat exchanging channels of the core portion, and second ducting channels for transfer of second fluid between a second fluid inlet/outlet and the second heat exchanging channels of the core portion. The first ducting channels direct the first fluid around the turn of at least 45 degrees and the second ducting channels direct the second fluid around a turn of at least 90 degrees. The first and second ducting channels are interleaved.
