Abstract: A process and system for generating hydrogen gas are described, in which water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen and oxygen, and a feedstock including oxygenate(s) and/or hydrocarbon(s), is non-autothermally catalytically oxidatively reformed with oxygen to generate hydrogen. The hydrogen generation system in a specific implementation includes an electrolyzer arranged to receive water and to generate hydrogen and oxygen therefrom, and a non-autothermal segmented adiabatic reactor containing non-autothermal oxidative reforming catalyst, arranged to receive the feedstock, water, and electrolyzer-generated oxygen, for non-autothermal catalytic oxidative reforming reaction to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen generation process and system are particularly advantageous for using bioethanol to produce green hydrogen.

Abstract: A system and method for growing and maintaining biological material including producing a protein associated with the tissue, selecting cells associated with the tissue, expanding the cells, creating at least one tissue bio-ink including the expanded cells, printing the at least one tissue bio-ink in at least one tissue growth medium mixture, growing the tissue from the printed at least one tissue bio-ink, and maintaining viability of the tissue.

Abstract: A fluid delivery device has a syringe barrel-type reservoir with plunger, and plunger driver assembly comprising double-acting, telescoping lead screws that is located behind and outside of the barrel. Simultaneously and counter-rotating sleeve screw and center screw telescope out of a nested configuration of the plunger driver assembly and into the reservoir at a rate of double their individual and equal pitch and lead parameters when the sleeve screw is rotated. A threaded nut and gear anchor disposed on an end of the barrel receive the sleeve screw and the threaded nut causes the sleeve screw to translate and rotate in response to motor operation. A distal end of the center screw can be keyed to a plunger pusher for anti-rotation constraint when the motor is imparting rotation on the threaded nut and sleeve screw.

Abstract: A non-autothermal adiabatic reactor is described, including a reactor vessel defining an interior volume therein for adiabatic reaction, an inlet assembly including one or more inlets arranged to introduce reactant(s) to the interior volume of the reactor vessel, a foam material body having a conversion catalyst thereon and/or therein, positioned in the interior volume of the reactor vessel for contacting thereof by the reactant(s) introduced to the interior volume, and an outlet arranged to discharge reaction product(s) from the reactor vessel. The non-autothermal adiabatic reactor is advantageously used to produce hydrogen from an ethanol or other hydrocarbon feedstock.

Abstract: A control circuit receives from a message source via a network interface a database-update message having at least one data object in a data-independent data format comprising human-readable text. The control circuit then automatically converts that data object into a structured query language (SQL) message. Upon then selecting at least one of a plurality of candidate SQL databases to provide a selected SQL database, the control circuit transmits the SQL message to the selected SQL database.

Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods for reducing foliar chloroplast movement in plants and trees to enhance CO2 trapping (carbon capture) from the air while naturally increasing the oxygen in the atmosphere and diluting the concentration of greenhouse gasses. Also provided are methods for measuring foliar chloroplast avoidance in response to treatments designed to reduce avoidance. Also provided are compositions and methods for reducing bud temperature increases during the dormancy phase of deciduous plants and trees, and compositions and methods for increasing winter chill accumulation in deciduous plants and trees.

Abstract: Unlike conventional through-air drying processes the instant invention utilizes at least two through-air driers where the first dyer is at least partially encircled by a first through-air drying fabric and the second dyer is at least partially encircled by a second through-air drying fabric. By providing each through-air dryer with its own fabric the overall drying performance may be increased. Additionally, in certain embodiments, the first and second fabrics may be different to optimize both the drying performance and/or tissue product properties.
