20120275980 | MEANS AND METHODS FOR UTILIZING SODIUM HYDROXIDE - A method and apparatus for diluting a solution of an alkali metal hydroxide (MOH) by using seawater or any other aqueous solution are disclosed, in which a concentrated MOH solution and seawater contact opposite sides of a membrane adapted to transmit water but not other molecules, thus creating a diluted solution of MOH and concentrated brine. Additional embodiments include means for limiting fouling of the system by removing Ca and Mg from the seawater by precipitation or reaction with a flocculant. Means and methods for adapting the method and apparatus for use in a flue gas desulfurization system are also disclosed. | 11-01-2012 |

20130213231 | FLUE GAS SCRUBBING APPARATUS AND METHODS THEREOF - An improved flue gas scrubbing apparatus and method are disclosed. The flue gas scrubber comprises a double-pipe or a two-pipe system whereby flue gas enters the system. Scrubbing is accomplished by interaction between the flue gas and base in a pre-injection zone, followed by further reaction in a primary injection zone and passage through a cyclone unit. In preferred embodiments of the invention, it comprises a bypass system by which flue gas is automatically exhausted directly to the atmosphere in case of a system failure. The gas exhausted from the apparatus following scrubbing meets or exceeds international emissions standards. | 08-22-2013 |

20110217386 | PROCESS FOR REDUCING THE FLUORIDE CONTENT WHEN PRODUCING PROTEINACEOUS CONCENTRATES FROM KRILL - The present invention relates to a process for removing fluorine from krill material by subjecting the krill to disintegration and to an enzymatic hydrolysis process prior to or simultaneously with a removal of the exoskeleton particles producing a fluorine-reduced product. The process of the invention can process krill material with a high polar lipid content for producing superior quality, low fluorine, products suitable for the food and feed as well as the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmetic industry. | 09-08-2011 |

20120149867 | Method For Processing Crustaceans And Products Thereof - The present invention contemplates the creation of a low fluoride oil processed from a phospholipid-protein complex (PPC) formed immediately upon a crustacean (i.e., for example, krill) catch. The process comprises disintegrating the crustaceans into smaller particles, adding water, heating the result, adding enzyme(s) to hydrolyze the disintegrated material, deactivating the enzyme(s), removing solids from the enzymatically processed material to reduce fluoride content of the material, separating and drying the PPC material. Then, using extraction with supercritical CO | 06-14-2012 |
20130225794 | REDUCED FLUORIDE CRUSTACEAN OIL COMPOSITIONS - The present invention contemplates the creation of a low fluoride oil processed from a phospholipid-protein complex (PPC) formed immediately upon a crustacean (i.e., for example, krill) catch. The process comprises disintegrating the crustaceans into smaller particles, adding water, heating the result, adding enzyme(s) to hydrolyze the disintegrated material, deactivating the enzyme(s), removing solids from the enzymatically processed material to reduce fluoride content of the material, separating and drying the PPC material.

20150030751 | Method for Processing Crustaceans to Produce Low Fluoride/Low Trimethyl Amine Products Thereof - The present invention contemplates the creation of a low fluoride crustacean oil processed from a phospholipid-protein complex (PPC) formed immediately upon a crustacean (i.e., for example, krill) catch. Further, the crustacean oil may also have reduced trimethyl amine and/or trimethyl amino oxide content. The process comprises disintegrating the crustaceans into smaller particles, adding water, heating the result, adding enzyme(s) to hydrolyze the disintegrated material, deactivating the enzyme(s), removing solids from the enzymatically processed material to reduce fluoride content of the material, separating and drying the PPC material. Then, using extraction with supercritical CO | 01-29-2015 |

20140178489 | Low Flouride Crustacean Concentrated Hydrolysate Fraction Compositions - Fluorine being present in the exoskeleton of crustaceans, and especially krill represents a problem for using krill as a source for food, feed, food additives and/or feed additives. There has been developed a process for removing such fluorine from krill material by subjecting the krill to disintegration and to an enzymatic hydrolysis process prior to or simultaneously with a removal of the exoskeleton particles producing a fluorine-reduced product. Inherent in the disclosed process is the ability to process krill material with a high polar lipid content for producing superior quality, low fluorine, products suitable for the food and feed as well as the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and cosmetic industry. | 06-26-2014 |

20150331130 | AUTONOMOUS SEISMIC NODE HANDLING AND STORAGE SYSTEM - Embodiments of systems and methods for storing and handling a plurality of autonomous seismic nodes are presented. The node handling and storage system may be coupled to a node deployment system that deploys and/or retrieves nodes from water from the back deck of a marine vessel. One embodiment of the node handling and storage system includes a plurality of portable containers that may be assembled in a variety of configurations based on the vessel and survey requirements. The containers are coupled to an autonomous or semi-autonomous node conveyor and/or transport system that moves the nodes between and within the containers for node cleaning, downloading, charging, servicing, and storage. The conveyor system may include a plurality of different transport devices and/or systems, such as rotatable conveyors, lateral conveyors, lift mechanisms, and elevators. | 11-19-2015 |
