20090321422 | Electric heater assembly - An electric heater assembly for heating molten metal such as aluminum. | 12-31-2009 |
20100151041 | Hypersaturated gas in liquid - Dispersing a gas in a liquid to provide a mixture of saturated, supersaturated or hypersaturated solution to provide a suspension of bubbles containing gas therein. | 06-17-2010 |
20100201049 | Thermally efficient, cover for metal containment vessel, related system and methods - A thermally efficient cover for the molten metal held in a furnace, tundish, ladle, crucible or other containment vessel. Through substantially horizontal movement, this cover allows for periodic removal, particularly by retraction, for accessing contents of that furnace from a top aperture in the containment vessel. This invention further relates to a covered furnace system and methods of use. | 08-12-2010 |
20120156309 | Using Aqueous Oxygenation to Improve Animal Health & Wellness - Dispersing gas in a liquid provides a mixture of saturated, supersaturated or hypersaturated solution to provide a suspension of bubbles containing gas therein into which animal tissue is immersed for health or wellness treatment. A two-phase mixture is provided with dissolved gas as a suspension of microbubbles. Methods for making, maintaining, and using the two-phase mixture are provided. Gas molecules may be introduced into a liquid at high velocity under elevated pressure to form a supersaturated solution that retains the gas, preferably oxygen, in solution when exposed to ambient conditions. | 06-21-2012 |
20120175024 | In-situ oxidized thermally applied ceramic coating - Rendering a refractory coating on a metal substrate impenetrable by molten metal. | 07-12-2012 |
20120177837 | Metallophobic thermally applied ceramic materials - Metal substrates coated with ceramics and resistant to attack by molten metal. | 07-12-2012 |
20130041312 | Using Aqueous Oxygenation to Improve Human Wellness - Dispersing a gas in a liquid to provide a mixture of saturated, supersaturated or hypersaturated solution to provide a suspension of bubbles containing gas therein into which human tissue is immersed for treating same. A two-phase mixture is provided having a dissolved gas and a suspension of microbubbles in a liquid. Methods for making, maintaining, and using the two-phase mixture are provided. The gas molecules may be introduced into the liquid at high velocity under elevated pressure to form a supersaturated solution that retains the dissolved gas concentration in solution when exposed to ambient conditions. | 02-14-2013 |
20130079800 | METHOD FOR DEBRIDING HUMAN TISSUE - There is provided a method for debriding human tissue by dissolving a gas in a liquid to form a solution under elevated pressure to saturate that solution with the dissolved gas. The solution is depressurized at or towards ambient pressure for supersaturating the gas in solution. The method provides means for allowing supersaturated solution to infiltrate the human tissue needing to be debrided. The supersaturated dissolved gas solution is activated and the activated gas allowed to expand for releasing energy into the solution at or near the tissue needing to be debrided. That human tissue is exfoliated with released energy from the expanding activated gas. | 03-28-2013 |
20130269482 | RECUPERATED ISOTHERMAL MELTER AND RELATED METHODS - An energy efficient metal melter is disclosed, said melter having a portion of melting energy supplied to it by a combustion process for heating a melter charge to a temperature where the melter charge can no longer maintain its shape. A portion of melting energy is also supplied to that melter by an electrical process for adding remaining transformational and sensible heat. Preferably, the combustion process uses a hydrocarbon fuel energy source selected from a distillate compound, gas compound or both and the electrical energy comes from a source selected from an external power grid, a generator and combinations thereof. Related methods are also disclosed. | 10-17-2013 |
20140141172 | METALLOPHOBIC THERMALLY APPLIED CERAMIC MATERIALS - Metal substrates coated with ceramics and resistant to attack by molten metal. | 05-22-2014 |
20140370096 | GAS TRANSPORTING RHEOLOGICAL MEDIUM, END USES AND RELATED APPARATUS-METHOD - A two-phase mixture is provided having a dissolved gas and a suspension of bubbles in a liquid. Methods for making, maintaining, and using the two-phase mixture are also provided. The gas molecules may be introduced into the liquid at a high velocity under elevated pressure to form a supersaturated solution that retains the dissolved gas concentration in solution when the solution is exposed to ambient conditions. The mixture may be used in a number of applications where high concentrations of gas must be retained in solution during prolonged exposure to ambient conditions. An example is the treatment of wounds to non-surgically remove dead, devitalized, contaminated and foreign matter from tissue cells. | 12-18-2014 |
