Abstract: Disclosed herein is an injector device for delivering an implant, the device including a retracting element, a cannula needle, and a plunger. The device may comprise an latch that, when actuated by a user, causes the retracting element to move the cannula needle away from the delivery site, allowing the plunger to eject the implant into the site. The device may be configured for intraocular drug delivery.

Abstract: The invention provides a trocar assembly for delivering a payload into tissue, such as an eye, comprising a primary housing, a cannula, a payload, an actuator and a trocar.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an injector device including an inserter element, a head element, an implant and a set of detachable protector elements for secured device handling. The device comprises a stop that controls the penetration depth of the device during injection. The device may comprise a removable catch that prevents the implant from exiting the device due to the advancement of its inserter element. The device may comprise a disengageable block that prevents the implant from exiting the device from its head element. The device may be configured for intraocular drug delivery.

Abstract: This invention provides for the recovery of lignin and other by-products from the pulping of fibrous plant material. In accordance with this invention, solvents and filtrates are recovered and recycled for reuse. This results in significant solvent and energy savings. Filtrates from the bleaching and delignification of the pulp are recycled for reuse in pulping, separation, and recovery of lignin and other by-products which results in significant energy savings and mitigation if not the elimination of pollution typically associated with bleaching. This invention also relates to products derived from the process and apparatus for carrying out the process. Lignins of various molecular weights and by-products of the pulping process are also recovered. The lignins are precipitated in high yields and at a high rate from a black liquor produced by pulping wood at high temperature and pressures. As a by-product of this process a purified furfural product is recovered.
