Inventor: PHANEUF MICHAEL WILLIAM
IPC: H01J37/256
Filed: 2012-05-14
Abstract: ABSTRACT: Generally, the present disclosure provides a method and system for improving imaging efficiency for CPB systems while maintaining or improving imaging accuracy over prior CPB systems. A large field of view image of a sample is acquired at a low resolution and thus, at high speed. The low resolution level is selected to be sufficient for an operator to visually identify structures or areas of interest on the low resolution image. The operator can select one or more small areas of arbitrary shape and size on the low resolution image, referred to as an exact region of interest (XROI). The outline of the XROI is mapped to an x-y coordinate system of the image, and the CPB system is then controlled to acquire a high resolution image of only the XROI identified on the low resolution image. For 3D imaging, once the XROI is identified, each section of the sample can be iteratively imaged in the previously described manner, with the operator having the option to redefine the XROI later.

Title: Advanced thermal conductive heater system for environmental remediation and the destruction of pollutants
Inventor: GECKELER GRANT
IPC: B09B1/00
Filed: 2013-02-22
Abstract: A thermal conductive heating and desorption system is disclosed, which provides superior results to other systems for the removal of pollutants from soil, groundwater and other affected medias using a novel enhanced gas fired recuperative heater and oxidation system. Pollutants in the affected, heated media are partially destroyed by hydrolysis, pyrolysis and/or oxidation processes. Remaining pollutants are extracted from the affected media, and pollutant off gas is then introduced into the heater system where it is both thermally and catalytically oxidized. Heat from combusted fuel and pollutant off gas in the heater system is used to preheat incoming combustion air through a recuperative heat exchanger, enabling significant reductions in fuel usage by the heater system. Combusted fuel and off gas discharged from the heater system may be further treated to achieve specified discharge standards.
