An inexpensive aquaponic conversion kit for aquariums that uses a combination of mechanical, biological, and chemical filtration components along with terrestrial plants to filter aquarium water. The system includes a funnel shaped undergravel filter that concentrates solid waste towards an airlift pump that transports solid and liquid waste into a planter containing terrestrial plants. These waste nutrients are trapped in the planter in layers of activated carbon and filamentous material that adsorb and trap waste particles where the roots of plants turn the waste into biological material and aid in cleaning the tank. A grow light and hood are able to be attached to a bracket at the back of the planter to grow healthy plants.

A combined nasal spray and aspirator device includes an air pump disposed within a housing and comprises a spray and aspirator assembly.

The device of the present invention integrates the operations of a nasal spray and a nasal aspirator, sucking the mucus away right after it sprays and liquefies the mucus, with said actions occurring almost simultaneously. The present invention is physically more favorable for users.

A portable microderm abrasion device is comprised of a hollow housing containing an electric motor that operates an air pump having air suction and air exhaust ports. A hollow, disposable exfoliation grit supply cartridge is removably located within an upper bay, while a separate hollow, disposable waste collection cartridge is also located within a lower bay in the housing directly beneath the grit supply cartridge. The two cartridges are separately removable from the housing. Grit from the supply cartridge is mixed with air drawn by a vacuum created by the air pump into a grit entrainment duct located within the waste collection cartridge and carried to a movable wand. A particulate filter located in the waste collection cartridge allows air, but prevents solid waste material, from being discharged to ambient atmosphere. Safety features include a timer and / or a motion sensor to reduce or cut off vacuum in the line if the grit dispensing and retrieval tip of the wand remains in a static condition or exerts a vacuum for too long a period of time upon the skin of the subject.

An air pump is driven to supply air via an air supply tube to a sub tank, by which a predetermined quantity of the air is mixed inside the sub tank via a gas-liquid separation membrane. Next, a carriage is swayed to agitate the ink by using the air mixed inside the sub tank. Then, the air pump is driven to discharge the air inside the sub tank via the gas-liquid separation membrane. In the above-described agitating motions, since the air utilized for the agitation is discharged from an ink tank after agitation processing, it is possible to prevent the air from remaining inside the ink tank to inflate, thereby adversely influencing the pressure relationship with a printing head.

A reservoir evaporation system for evaporating fluid from an open reservoir of effluent containing a contaminant includes a fluid evaporator, an air pump, and an air supply conduit functionally connecting the fluid evaporator with the air pump. The fluid evaporator includes a vessel adapted to be positioned in an operative position partially submerged on the top surface of the effluent in the reservoir with a lower chamber submerged in the effluent and an upper chamber extending above the top surface of the effluent.

A fluid discharge pipe can also simultaneously discharge aerated effluent back down into the reservoir. Fluid is thereby separated from the effluent in the lower chamber by evaporation in a controlled manner that minimizes spread of contaminants to surrounding environments by wind.
