Abstract: A suction collection container for use in an surgery plume evacuation system comprises a main outer shell having a hollow interior. An inlet port permits air, smoke, moisture, liquid, and particulate matter to ingress into the hollow interior of the main outer shell. An outlet port permits air and smoke within the hollow interior to egress therefrom. An air filter at the outlet port precludes of moisture, liquid, and particulate matter from exiting the hollow interior through the outlet port. A deflector plate is interpositioned between the inlet port and the outlet port in fluid receiving relation behind the inlet port, to thereby deflect fluids entering the hollow interior through the inlet port and preclude the fluids from reaching the outlet port. An air flow path from the inlet port to the outlet port permits air and smoke to pass from the inlet port to the outlet port.

Abstract: Reduced emissions of gas phase reduced nitrogen species in the off gas of an FCC regenerator operated in a partial or incomplete mode of combustion is achieved by contacting the off gas with an oxidative catalyst/additive composition having the ability to reduce gas phase nitrogen species to molecular nitrogen. Fluidizable particles of the oxidative catalyst/additives are circulated throughout the partial or incomplete burn FCC unit along with the FCC catalyst inventory. The flue gas having a reduced content of gas phase reduced nitrogen species and NO x is passed to a downstream CO boiler, preferably a low NO.x CO boiler. In the CO boiler, as CO is oxidized to C0 2, a reduced amount of gas phase reduced nitrogen species is oxidized to NOx, thereby providing an increase in the overall reduction of NO x, emitted into the environment.

Title: Method and device for applying a thick reactive coating on a body rotating about an axis
Inventor: PETER THOMAS H
IPC: B29C48/09
Filed: 2003-11-10
Granted: 2011-05-17
Abstract: A method for coating a substrate (10) includes rotating the substrate (10) about an axis, and applying a polymeric reaction mixture to a surface of the rotating substrate by ejecting the polymeric reaction mixture through a die (100). The die (100) has a branched system of channels for dividing an inlet stream of the polymeric reaction mixture into plural outlet streams. The outlet streams are spaced apart from each other such that the outlet streams flow together seamlessly after application to the substrate. The die (100) and the rotating substrate (10) are moved longitudinally relative to each other.  And the material output rate of the mixture and the relative movement of the die (100) are synchronized with the rotational speed of the substrate (10) in such a way that successive convolutions of polymeric reaction mixture overlap and connect together seamlessly.

Abstract: Apparatus (100) for stacking bales of hay into large bundles, for example, three bales high and seven bales wide, positions bands (44) about the stacked array to provide a tightly bound, compressed stack of bales. The stacking apparatus (100) compresses the stacked bales during banding with a greater force applied to the same facing portions of the bales as applied during formation of the bales to form a solid, self-supporting large bundle made up of smaller bales. The apparatus is computer controlled and fully automated from the input of individual bales to the discharge of a tightly banded and compressed bundle (80) of hay bales and can be used while traversing a field containing the individual hay bales (51).
