20140318731 | EXTRACTION FROM LARGE THERMAL STORAGE SYSTEMS USING PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS AND LATENT HEAT EXCHANGERS - An energy storage method and apparatus for extraction from large thermal storage systems using phase change materials and latent heat exchangers. This includes thermal heat extraction from, and charging of a large thermal storage tank containing thousands of megawatt hours of thermal energy, using the phase change of heat collection fluid and the phase change of molten phase change material for thermal storage use in generating electricity, steam, or for other industrial processes as implemented in the field of solar energy collection, thermal storage and extraction. The method and apparatus continuously removes thermal resistance that comes from the phase change material allowing operation at a high rate of efficiency. A heat exchanger is provided inside the storage tank thereby reducing heat losses, capital costs and space requirements compared to existing thermal storage systems. | 10-30-2014 |

20160023924 | UV Sanitizing Assemblies With High Dose Features and Methods for Controlling the Same - A purifying system for treating a fluid with UV light including a housing defining: a chamber having a treatment zone; an inlet; and an outlet. The light source supplies UV light to the treatment zone. The inlet, the tubular housing, or the outlet may extend inward into the chamber so that the fluid passes close to the light source and has a relatively increased duration in the treatment zone. The purifying system may also have a sensor coupled to the housing or light source for generating a first signal indicative of a first parameter of the treatment zone. A microcontroller can control the light source based on a signal from the sensor and data characterizing the light source. The microcontroller may also vary operation of the light source and collect data to create the data characterizing the light source. | 01-28-2016 |

20110094946 | REMOVAL OF FUSARIUM INFECTED KERNELS FOR GRAIN - infected grain is separated by comparing reflected and transmitted light at two wavelengths, one at which the light is substantially reflected and scattered the same by healthy and infected kernels, the other at which the light is reflected and scattered to a significantly greater degree by infected than healthy kernels. An apparatus having a rotating apertured cylinder, with a low internal vacuum, allows comparison of individual kernels. When comparison indicates that a kernel is infected, a lever dislodges it from the cylinder allowing it to fall into a receptacle for infected kernels. Kernels remaining on the cylinder are scraped off to fall into a receptacle for healthy kernels. Although results vary, to some extent depending on the degree of infection, approximately 90% of healthy kernels and 5% of infected kernels are deemed “healthy”, while approximately 10% of healthy kernels and 95% of infected kernels are deemed “infected,” reducing the level of infected kernels. | 04-28-2011 |
