Abstract: An olefin polymerization titanium catalyst. It comprises a titanium compound and an organoaluminium compound cocatalyst supported on a soluble polysulfone comprising free reactive sulfone groups. The molar ratio of titanium of aluminum is 1–10:200 and the weight ratio of titanium to polysulfone is 0.01–0.1:0.3–2.5. The process for preparing the catalyst comprises preparing a supported titanium compound by contacting a solution of a polysulfone in a halogenated or polar solvent with a titanium compound or a solution thereof in a halogenated or polar solvent in an inert atmosphere at a temperature between 10° C. and the boiling point of the solvent such that the weight ratio of titanium to polysulfone is 0.01–0.1:0.3–2.5. The supported titanium compound is mixed with an organoaluminium cocatalyst such that the molar ratio of titanium to aluminum is 1–10:200.

Abstract: A lower ?-alkene polymerization heterogeneous solid catalyst which comprises a hydrated magnesium chloride derived procatalyst, a cocatalyst comprising an organoaluminium compound and a selectivity control agent comprising an ester or ether. The procatalyst comprises a titanium tetrahalide supported on a magnesium chloride ester complex precursor. Magnesium chloride alcoholate is reacted with an activated carbonyl compound in the presence of a hydrocarbon and/or halohydrocarbon solvent to generate insitu an internal electron donor ester component of the precursor. The precursor is reacted with a titanium tetrahalide optionally in the presence of a hydrocarbon and/or halohydrocarbon solvent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an efficient process of vermicomposting and production of high-quality vermicompost from agro-waste(including distillation waste) using animal urine such as cattle urine.

Abstract: The present invention was related to the development of a novel, distinct high yielding plant with rapid regeneration ability obtained through screening of the somaclones in a methodical way for fast regeneration in the tissue culture stage itself which was achieved by inventing the plant ‘Kushal’. The plant yield higher herbage with corresponding high essential oil when evaluated with available superior varieties of mint in late planting condition during April when the fields are vacated after the harvest of Rabi crop like wheat, chickpea, coriander etc. Further the suckers required for commercial vegetative planting can be produced even in low land condition as the plant is reasonably tolerant to water logging compared to the best check ‘Kosi’.

Abstract: Replacing the functionality of an active digital loop carrier subsystem (DLCSS) or active module with a standby DLCSS or standby module in an IP addressable telecommunication switch is effected by providing only a single externally-known IP address for the module pair and then swapping the IP address of the active module for the IP address of the standby module so that externally-connected devices recognize only the IP address for the module in use. A central network management station in communication with a local nonvolatile memory element controls the IP address swapping.
