Abstract: Compositions and methods for synthesis of protein stabilized liposomes (PSLs) is described. In one aspect, a protein excipient that stabilizes liposome integrity, when incorporated into liposome formulations, is provided. The manufacturing process for production of metastable liposome particles with a half-life of several months is also described. In some aspects the liposome particles may contain a bioactive agent. In some cases, the bioactive agent is a protein, nucleic acid, lipid, or small molecule.

Abstract: The consumption of organic solids with anaerobic digestion to generate usable gases including methane is made more efficient by maintaining the ideal digestion temperature, which is attained by combining the anaerobic digestion process with a halogen digester which produces heat energy and hydrogen gas. With a given biological feedstock four outputs can be generated (methane, hydrogen, electricity, and heat) in the ratio that makes the most economical sense. The process also provides a significant reduction in volume of output solids. The halogen oxidation process can be used on all the anaerobic digester effluent to extract more energy and oxidize a wet feedstock. If there are solids which are not easily digested with the anaerobic process, these solids can be diverted to the halogen digester to derive more energy from the feedstock. Pathogens common to other anaerobic digester effluents are removed.
