20090282404 | Provisioning of Computer Systems Using Virtual Machines - A provisioning server automatically configures a virtual machine (VM) according to user specifications and then deploys the VM on a physical host. The user may either choose from a list of pre-configured, ready-to-deploy VMs, or he may select which hardware, operating system and application(s) he would like the VM to have. The provisioning server then configures the VM accordingly, if the desired configuration is available, or it applies heuristics to configure a VM that best matches the user's request if it isn't. The invention also includes mechanisms for monitoring the status of VMs and hosts, for migrating VMs between hosts, and for creating a network of VMs. | 11-12-2009 |

20110165633 | Production of Polyketides and Other Natural Products - The present invention relates to production of polyketides and other natural products and to libraries of compounds and individual novel compounds. One important area is the isolation and potential use of novel FKBP-ligand analogues and host cells that produce these compounds. The invention is particularly concerned with methods for the efficient transformation of strains that produce FKBP analogues and recombinant cells in which cloned genes or gene cassettes are expressed to generate novel compounds such as polyketide (especially rapamycin) FKBP-ligand analogues, and to processes for their preparation, and to means employed therein (e.g. nucleic acids, vectors, gene cassettes and genetically modified strains). | 07-07-2011 |

20110092356 | CATALYTIC STRUCTURES INCLUDING CATALYST MATERIALS IN POROUS ZEOLITE MATERIALS, AND METHODS OF FORMING SAME - Catalytic structures include a catalytic material disposed within a zeolite material. The catalytic material may be capable of catalyzing a formation of methanol from carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide, and the zeolite material may be capable of catalyzing a formation of hydrocarbon molecules from methanol. The catalytic material may include copper and zinc oxide. The zeolite material may include a first plurality of pores substantially defined by a crystal structure of the zeolite material and a second plurality of pores dispersed throughout the zeolite material. Systems for synthesizing hydrocarbon molecules also include catalytic structures. Methods for synthesizing hydrocarbon molecules include contacting hydrogen and at least one of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide with such catalytic structures. Catalytic structures are fabricated by forming a zeolite material at least partially around a template structure, removing the template structure, and introducing a catalytic material into the zeolite material. | 04-21-2011 |
20130008861 | METHODS FOR RECOVERING A SOLVENT FROM A FLUID VOLUME AND METHODS OF REMOVING AT LEAST ONE COMPOUND FROM A NONPOLAR SOLVENT - A method of removing a nonpolar solvent from a fluid volume that includes at least one nonpolar compound, such as a fat, an oil or a triglyceride, is provided. The method comprises contacting a fluid volume with an expanding gas to expand the nonpolar solvent and form a gas-expanded solvent. The gas-expanded solvent may have a substantially reduced density in comparison to the at least one nonpolar compound and/or a substantially reduced capacity to solubilize the nonpolar compound, causing the nonpolar compounds to separate from the gas-expanded nonpolar solvent into a separate liquid phase. The liquid phase including the at least one nonpolar compound may be separated from the gas-expanded solvent using conventional techniques. After separation of the liquid phase, at least one of the temperature and pressure may be reduced to separate the nonpolar solvent from the expanding gas such that the nonpolar solvent may be recovered and reused. | 01-10-2013 |

20090071872 | CONVERSION OF CROP SEED OIL TO JET FUEL AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - Aspects of the invention include methods to produce jet-fuel from biological oil sources. The method may be comprised of two steps: a hydrocracking and a reforming. The process may be self sufficient in heat and hydrogen. | 03-19-2009 |
20100009842 | ENHANCEMENT OF ALKYLATION CATALYSTS FOR IMPROVED SUPERCRITICAL FLUID REGENERATION - A method of modifying an alkylation catalyst to reduce the formation of condensed hydrocarbon species thereon. The method comprises providing an alkylation catalyst comprising a plurality of active sites. The plurality of active sites on the alkylation catalyst may include a plurality of weakly acidic active sites, intermediate acidity active sites, and strongly acidic active sites. A base is adsorbed to a portion of the plurality of active sites, such as the strongly acidic active sites, selectively poisoning the strongly acidic active sites. A method of modifying the alkylation catalyst by providing an alkylation catalyst comprising a pore size distribution that sterically constrains formation of the condensed hydrocarbon species on the alkylation catalyst or by synthesizing the alkylation catalyst to comprise a decreased number of strongly acidic active sites is also disclosed, as is a method of improving a regeneration efficiency of the alkylation catalyst. | 01-14-2010 |

20080289454 | Wrench - A wrench capable of engaging a workpiece from the side or top. When the workpiece is engaged on the side, a movable jaw opens when a slight pressure is applied against a flat or a point of the nut or bolt. After the jaws of the wrench have pushed past the workpiece, a pin and spring mechanically return the moveable jaw to its closed position. In its closed position, the workpiece is retained by the jaws in the proper seat position. When tightening or loosening the workpiece, the direction of the pull is towards the fixed jaw. Disengagement between pulls is accomplished by turning in the opposite direction of pull. The wrench rides over the points of the workpiece and automatically reseats itself. | 11-27-2008 |
