High efficiency active electrostatic air filter and method of manufacture

A washable air filter for removing particles from the inlet air to a heating and / or air conditioning system formed of an assembly of a central polymeric pad containing actively charged charge control agents of a first polarity, a polymeric net containing a dispersion of charged charge control agents of a second polarity in the polymer on each side of the pad and a stiff, deformable metal or plastic grill on each side of the net to form an assembly which can be corrugated and placed in a perimeter frame. The charging is preferably accomplished as the assembly passes over the surface of a roller with a conductive surface.

Laminate material for hook-and-loop closures

A laminate material for hook-and-loop closures, comprising a carrier film and a textile substrate laminated onto the carrier film. The textile substrate has loops on its surface that are suitable for connecting with hook-and-loop hooks, wherein the carrier film and the textile substrate are not connected over their entire area. A method for producing a laminate material for hook-and-loop closures comprises applying an adhesive to a carrier film in a pattern that is composed of adhesive areas and adhesive-free regions, applying a material web of a textile substrate to the side of the carrier film provided with adhesive to form a two-ply web, the textile substrate having loops on its surface that are suitable for connecting with hook-and-loop hooks; and passing the two-ply web through a roller nip of a pair of rollers, which presses the carrier film and the textile substrate together.

Porous carbon electrode with conductive polymer coating

An extremely high-performance polyaniline electrode was prepared by potentiostatic deposition of aniline on hierarchically porous carbon monolith (HPCM), which was carbonized from mesophase pitch. A capacitance value of 2200 F g−1 of polyaniline was obtained at a power density of 0.47 kW kg−1 and an energy density of 300 Wh kg−1. This active material deposited on HPCM also has an advantageous high stability. These superior advantages can be attributed to the backbone role of HPCM. This method also has the advantages of not introducing any binder, thus contributing to the increase of ionic conductivity and power density. High specific capacitance, high power and energy density, high stability, and low cost of active material make it very promising for supercapacitors.

Aerator device inducing cyclonic flow

A pneumatic aerator aids in bulk material unloading, handling and transport using tank trailers, hopper cars, and other containers, as its aerator introduces a cyclonic air flow and vibration into the bulk material. This aerator has a housing, one or three guide tubes, an aerator extending through the housing, a gasket upon one end of the aerator generally within the container of the bulk material, and an optional wearplate beneath the gasket. The aerator has a stem with one vane, preferably three vanes, where the vanes and contiguous fins curve counterclockwise in a helical manner. The airflow past the fins and vanes acquires a counterclockwise rotation, rotating the air as it exits radially from the gasket increasing the bulk material unloaded per hour. This aerator also has various gasket thicknesses and edge conditions, guide tubes, and various shapes in the vanes and fins for alternate speeds and directions of airflow. This aerator increases the rate of unloading of bulk materials from tank trailers, hopper cars, and various containers and transporters.

Measurement device control system for determining a topology of a surface of a bulk material

For determining the topology of a bulk material surface, a series of echo curves are detected in different primary radiation directions of the antenna. In the process, the primary radiation direction of the antenna is changed in such a way that all of the generated echo curves of the series of echo curves can be used for determining the topology of the bulk material surface. As a result, the measurement time can be reduced.

A loading assembly including a static or mobile frame having a platform adjustably supported thereon and a hopper for containment of material to be loaded being movable relative to the platform between a loading position and an unloading position. A positioning assembly is adjustably interconnected to the frame and cooperatively disposed and structured relative to the platform and hopper to facilitate disposition of the hopper between the loading and unloading positions. The positioning assembly is further structured to assume a retaining relation to the material initially loaded into the hopper and subsequently being unloaded from said hopper, concurrently to the movement of the hopper from the unloading position to the loading position.

Method for efficient and effective drying

ActiveUS20200132372A1Lower efficiencyAvoid overheating the productDrying solid materials with heatHeat recovery systemsHot blastCondensed water
Hot air drying is an intensive energy consuming process, 5000-8000 kJ per kg of water. More efficient processes produce low drying rates or cannot totally dry the product because they do not integrate the four drying phases, warm up, constant drying, falling drying and aeration and do not handle dripping. To reduce the energy consumption, the exhausted mix of air and vapor is used as working fluid to drive each phase, and the dripping is collected before it goes back to the product. This fluid is compressed inside of a heat-exchanger to heat the product; however, the mix proportion, vapor and air, changes on each phase. For warm up phase, the working fluid is either hot air or condensed water; in constant phase, it is mostly vapor; in falling phase, it changes from vapor to air; and for aeration, it is air. Inlet and outlet valves control these proportions.

Method and apparatus for pneumatic excavation

InactiveUS7631444B1Improved and safe and lightweight and functionally optimizedAvoid risk of damageMechanical machines/dredgersLiquid/gas jet drillingSupersonic speedAirflow
Material is pneumatically excavated and removed by discharging air under pressure from an excavation nozzle at supersonic speeds in a forward direction for excavating the material, and simultaneously discharging air under pressure from an evacuation nozzle also at supersonic speeds in a rearward direction at an adjacent position rearward of the point of forward discharge for assisting the removal of the excavated material in a rearward direction. The evacuation nozzle is in the form of a continuous annular air stream that is maintained concentric with the excavation nozzle. The nozzles are sized to provide maximum excavation and removal efficiency in co-relation to the PSI and the CFM output capabilities of the selected air source and the nozzles are positioned sufficiently close to each other whereby dynamic flow coupling is established between the nozzles such that material digging and removal performance and efficiency are maximized.
