Title: Method and apparatus for reducing contaminants in wastewater
Inventor: CHEN SHUNQING
IPC: C02F1/66
Filed: 2019-01-16
Abstract: A method (200, 400) for reducing contaminants in wastewater from a manufacturing process. Water is fed into a processing tank (102) that has been used to process one or more materials having negatively charged particles that become contaminants in wastewater. The water becomes mixed with the contaminants forming wastewater which is discharged into a wastewater tank (13). A water treatment composition is added to the wastewater tank (13) containing the wastewater. The water treatment composition has a coagulant having one or more water-soluble multi-valent inorganic salts or mixtures thereof. The coagulant attracts and neutralizes the negatively charged particles in the wastewater to form insoluble matter. The insoluble matter is removed to obtain treated wastewater with reduced contaminants.

Patent WO-2020097505-A1 (WO)
Inventor: WASHINGTON GREGORY
IPC: G06F3/01
Filed: 2019-11-08
Abstract: Soft capacitive pressure sensors for continuous wearable health monitoring applications are described herein. Wrinkled gold thin films on elastomeric substrates are used as robust parallel plate electrodes to create a robust integration with the polymer, allowing repeated normal force to deform the thin film without failure. By incorporating micro-ridged structures that support the counter electrodes to create air cavities within the elastomeric dielectric layer, pressure sensitivity is further increased. The pressure sensors are configured to measure human physiological signals such as pressure exerted from a radial pulse on a skin's surface. The radial pulse pressure detected by the sensor can be correlated to an arterial blood pressure. Calibration of said pressure sensors using a neural network allows for determination of absolute blood pressure.

Filed: 2020-01-07
Abstract: A system and method for obtaining environmental data namely air quality information from various devices contained within a structure is disclosed herein. The various devices contain sensors that can obtain environmental data, which is then analyzed by the system to determine if any level of a component within the data is outside of a predefined threshold range. If the system determines that the level of the component is outside of the predefined threshold range for that given component, the system will carry out certain steps in order to bring the level within the predetermined threshold range. These steps include selecting the appropriate appliance and the proper operating conditions to most efficiently bring the level back within the predetermined threshold range. Once the system has determined that the level is back within the predetermined threshold range, the system will instruct the selected appliance to turn OFF.
