The process involves providing a substrate comprising CO to a bioreactor which contains a culture of one or more micro-organisms and anaerobically fermenting the substrate to produce 2,3-butanediol (BDO). The BDO is next converted to one or more of butane, butadiene and/or methyl ethyl ketone which in turn can be converted to other compounds. The source of the CO can be an industrial process such as the ferrous metal products manufacturing. The microorganism can be | 02-23-2012 |

20120167282 | TOTAL COMFORT HARD HAT SYSTEMS - A fan cooled and heated hard hat system comprising an outer safety shell with louvers in the top of the dome, a removable fan, a removable heating pad, and a screen system having an upper and a lower screen for placing the removable heating pad between when desired by a user-wearer. The fan is mountable to the interior dome of the shell with the propeller of the fan between the screen system and the louvers such that ambient air is drawn through the louvers via the fan and forced through the screen system about the user-wearer's head. The hard hat system cools the user-wearer's head when the heating pad is not in place and heats the user-wearer's head when it is in place. | 07-05-2012 |

20120115789 | Methylglyoxal-Scavenging Compounds and Their Use for the Prevention and Treatment of Pain and/or Hyperalgesia - The present invention relates to compounds which inhibit or antagonize the binding of methylglyoxal (MG) and/or other reactive carbonyl species (RCS) to an arginine- or lysine- containing protein, preferably an arginine- or lysine-containing cellular protein, such as a sodium ion channel, e.g. the sodium ion channel Na(v)1.8. Preferred scavenger compounds are peptides comprising several or multiple repeats of the amino acid sequence motif Gly-Glu-X-Pro (GEXP), wherein X is Arg or Lys, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. The present invention furthermore relates to the use of the compounds as scavenger or antagonists of methylglyoxal and/or related reactive carbonyl species (RCS). The present invention furthermore relates to the use of the compounds for the prevention and/or treatment of pain, hyperalgesia and pain related diseases, in particular pain and/or hyperalgesia caused by or associated with methylglyoxal and/or reactive carbonyl species (RCS). | 05-10-2012 |

20140265462 | Portable Cooling Chamber Having Radiant Barrier and Cooling System - A compact radiant barrier with applied cooling systems. In accordance with one embodiment, the invention may comprise a folding chair characterized as having a top radiant barrier and deployable radiant barriers on either side as well as the front and rear of the chair. The side radiant barriers are deployable extending down to the chair arms and even below. The invention may further comprise a forced air cooling fan that may be disposed on the lower surface of top component of the chair, in which the top component also operates as a radiant barrier, i.e., a reflective material such that solar radiation is not absorbed but is reflected back into the atmosphere. It is a further aspect of the invention that various elements of the radiant barrier, especially the top barrier, further comprise insulating properties. | 09-18-2014 |

20140200955 | DYNAMIC DETERMINATION OF LOCALIZATION SOURCE FOR WEB SITE CONTENT - Method and system for localizing an element present in a piece of content having a plurality of elements. A cost of localizing an element with respect to each of one or more localization sources is first computed. At least one criterion based on which a localization source for localizing the element is to be determined is obtained. A localization source for localizing the element is then selected based on an assessment with respect to the at least one criterion. The element of the content is then localized using the selected localization source. | 07-17-2014 |
