Utility
System and method to separate gases using high viscosity liquid sorbents in a spray contactor
28 Nov 23
A gas separation system has system input inlet configured to receive a stream mixture including a target gas, one or more spray generators positioned to spray a non-sprayable liquid to change a concentration of the target gas in the non-sprayable liquid, one or more system outlets positioned to outlet an output material, wherein at least one of the system outlets outputs a material having a lower amount of the target gas than the input stream mixture, and a recirculating path connected to the one or more outputs and the input inlet to allow recirculation of the non-sprayable liquid.

Utility
Method for generating document with specialty imaging and computing device associated therewith
28 Nov 23
A method for generating a document with specialty imaging includes: receiving a document with three pages, including a content page, a mask page with a background color and a foreground color, and an effect page with special imaging effect(s); processing the mask and effect pages by hiding a portion of the effect page overlapped by the background color to form a transformed effect page with a remaining portion, wherein the foreground color at least partially unhides the remaining portion such that the transformed effect page includes at least one specialty imaging effect; and processing the transformed effect and content pages by overlaying the transformed effect page on the content page to generate a transformed content page that forms a transformed document with specialty imaging.

Utility
Optical Absorbing Thermoplastic Polymer Particles and Methods of Production and Uses Thereof
23 Nov 23
Optical absorber-containing thermoplastic polymer particles (OACTP particles) may be produced by methods that comprise: mixing a mixture comprising a thermoplastic polymer, a carrier fluid that is immiscible with the thermoplastic polymer, and optionally an emulsion stabilizer at a temperature greater than a melting point or softening temperature of the thermoplastic polymer and at a shear rate sufficiently high to disperse the thermoplastic polymer in the carrier fluid; cooling the mixture to below the melting point or softening temperature of the thermoplastic polymer to form solidified particles comprising the thermoplastic polymer; separating the solidified particles from the carrier fluid; and exposing the solidified particles to an optical absorber to produce the OACTP particles.
