20150086813 | REVERSE ELECTRODIALYSIS ENERGY GENERATING SYSTEM USING CAPACITIVE ELECTRODES AND METHOD THERE FOR - An energy generating system using capacitive electrodes and a method therefore are disclosed. In an embodiment, the system includes first electrode and a second electrode compartments. A number of electrolyte compartments are provided between the first and second compartments. The compartments are formed by a number of alternately provided cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes. In use, the electrolyte compartments are alternately filled with a high and low osmotic flow, such that the first and second electrodes are charged with positively or negatively charged ions. A circuit is connected to the at least first and second electrodes for collecting the generated energy; and a switching device is included for switching between the high and low osmotic flows such that the system switches from a first energy generating state to a second energy generating state with the first and second electrodes switching polarity. | 03-26-2015 |

20160101420 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SEPARATING IMMISCIBLE LIQUIDS TO EFFECTIVELY ISOLATE AT LEAST ONE OF THE LIQUIDS - Method that includes providing a phase-separation device having a porous membrane with a filter surface. The filter surface has a non-planar contour that forms a receiving cavity. The method also includes providing a liquid mixture into the receiving cavity of the porous membrane. The liquid mixture includes a polar liquid and a non-polar liquid that are immiscible with respect to each other. The filter surface along the receiving cavity has a surface energy that impedes flow of the polar liquid through the filter surface and permit flow of the non-polar liquid into the porous membrane. The method also includes permitting the non-polar liquid to flow into the porous membrane. The polar liquid forms a droplet within the receiving cavity as the non-polar liquid flows into the porous membrane. | 04-14-2016 |

20160076767 | SYSTEM AND APPROACH FOR CONTROLLING A COMBUSTION CHAMBER - A system for controlling activity in a combustion chamber. The system does not necessarily need to be mechanically adjusted and yet may provide precise control of a fuel air mixture ratio. A sensing module of the system may have a mass flow sensor that relates to air flow and another sensor that relates to fuel flow. Neither sensor may need contact with fuel. Fuel and air to the system may be controlled. Pressure of the fuel and/or air may be regulated. The sensors may provide signals to a processor to indicate a state of the fuel and air in the system. The processor, with reliance on a programmed curve, table or the like, often based on data, in a storage memory, may regulate the flow or pressure of the fuel and air in a parallel fashion to provide an appropriate fuel-air mixture to the combustion chamber. | 03-17-2016 |
