20090200015 | METHOD AND LIQUID FOR INCREASING THE RECOVERY FACTOR IN OIL RESERVOIRS - This invention deals with a method for increasing the recovery factor in oil reservoirs through the injection of polymerization precursor liquids with low viscosity for the production of biopolymers in situ. The method acts in conjunction in the injection profile correction and advanced oil recovery. The invention also refers to the composition of liquids that are precursors of polymerization with low viscosity and to the use of spores or specific bacterium for said purpose. A polymerization precursor liquid is injected into the reservoir which impregnates the rocky matrix. Afterwards, a continuous injection of a polymerizable liquid with additives of low viscosity is performed. The creation of a biopolymer occurs in situ, adhering itself to the rocky matrix, preferably in the thief zones, blocking said zones. A secondary effect is the liquid thickening that reduces the difference between the viscosity of the water and the viscosity of the oil and acts as a displacement liquid for the oil only in the productive zones. The method according to the present invention is suitable for reclaiming depleted reservoirs with negative pressure, and it is viable under onshore and offshore conditions. | 08-13-2009 |

20130101701 | REHYDRATABLE FOOD - Use of dried rehydratable food, such as in a dried soup, a dried beverage, a breakfast cereal, a yoghurt and a dried sauce, is widespread. However it has been observed that when the dried components are fruit and/or vegetable, the components, on rehydration, do not resemble the fruit and/or vegetable before desiccation. That is to say they no longer have a fresh appearance but are discoloured and lack firmness. This transformation is due to cellular damage which occurs during desiccation. In particular, it is thought that phospholipid membranes are destabilised by insertion of cellular amphiphiles, phase transition into the gel phase and membrane fusion. This invention seeks to solve the above-mentioned technical problem by providing, amongst other things, a dried rehydratable food which is a fruit, vegetable or part thereof which, on rehydration, has improved appearance, texture and rehydration properties. In particular, a dried rehydratable food is provided, the food comprising less than 10% w/w water and at least 0.02% w/w of a dehydrin protein and derivatives thereof, the dehydrin protein and derivatives thereof comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of K,I,K,E,K,L,P,G; K,I,K,E/D,K,L/I,P,G; and K,I,K,E/D,K,L/I/TA/,P/H/S,G, and wherein the dried rehydratable food is unbroken tissue of a vegetable or part thereof and/or a fruit or part thereof, and not a seed, wherein the unbroken tissue has a shortest linear dimension of at least 0.5 millimetres, preferably a shortest linear dimension of 0.5 to 25, more preferably 0.5 to 10 millimetres. A food product comprising the dried rehydratable food and methods for manufacturing the dried rehydratable food are also provided. | 04-25-2013 |
