Abstract: A leader line, hook and lure storage device comprising a unitary and homogenous geometrically shaped elastomeric spooling structure having formed therein a plurality of perimeter recesses each having located therein a peg which is anchored to the unitary and homogenous geometrically shaped elastomeric structure without a requirement for additional peg support. The anchoring provides the primary support for the peg.

Abstract: A measuring device which maximizes the surface area of a blade transducer, which is swingably coupled to a probe member, and utilizes the force of the medium, such as a slurry, flowing in an in-service pipeline to swingably align the blade transducer in a desired measuring position. The swingable coupling of the blade transducer to the probe member provides for the retraction from and insertion into the medium flowing in the in-service pipeline for repairs, replacement, or sanitization or other maintenance or servicing of such blade transducer, without shutting down the pipeline and related processes, without compromising the integrity of or disturbing the connection (sealed, flanged, welded or otherwise) between the measuring device and the transducer port in such pipeline and significantly minimizing the environmental exposure of the medium.

Abstract: A method and a system for the treatment of organic hazardous wastes from plant waste and associated wastewater treatment processes, whereby the waste is either introduced directly, or continuously separated from wastewater, and routed to a bioreactor, and whereby no organic solids are generated for further offsite disposal. The system disclosed includes a bioreactor, containing selected bacteria, untreated sludges, and recirculated biomass, and a liquid/solid separator allowing water to be utilized elsewhere in the system and returning solids to the bioreactor. The biodegradation process, initiated continuously, converts hazardous organic constituents in waste stream and wastewater sludges from plant operations to inert materials, for extensive periods of operation, without the need for solids removal, external solids treatment or disposal.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for comminuting rock and other material and, in particular, to a rotary driven blade apparatus which comminutes rock, drilling materials and other material by impact rather than by grinding or crushing. More particularly, the invention creates a comminution environment which maximizes the establishment of a clear trajectory for the material between the orbit of each spinning blade and a single breaker bar.

Abstract: A process of and system for distributing, filtering, storing, recovering, and disposing of bulk edible oil or other fluid. The filtering system having a filter box assembly, superstructure and fluid transfer unit functions to filter the edible oil or other fluid, transfer the fresh (new) oil or other fluid for use in commercial vats and transfer spent (old) oil or other fluid to an outdoor supply and disposal storage tank. Two three-way valves coupled to two manual three-way valve switch handles operate to control the fluid transfer unit to intake fresh or old fluid and to dispense of the fresh or old fluid. A mobile transport truck couples to the outdoor supply and disposal storage tank for filling the supply and disposal storage tank with fresh (new) oil or other fluid and retrieves the spent (old) oil or other fluid.

Abstract: The present invention is a simple, cost-effective, and inexpensive system d apparatus for detecting and monitoring the presence of wood-destroying insects, such as termites and which is transparent, and in an alternative embodiment, at least in part transparent. The present invention, unlike the prior art, has universal surface applicability in that the same apparatus may be used on a variety of surfaces, whether on the floor, the ceiling, the wall, or another surface. Additionally, the present invention is demountably mountable such that the present invention is removably attachable, and not permanently fixed, to the surface suspected of harboring wood-destroying insects. Further, the present invention relates to an apparatus for detecting the presence of wood-destroying insects by utilizing the apparatus alone, or in conjunction with a plug inserted into the suspect surface.

Abstract: A modularly tiered clear-trajectory impact commuter apparatus that comminutes rock, drilling materials and other comminutable by impact rather than by grinding or crushing. The invention creates a comminution environment which maximizes the establishment of a clear essentially tangential trajectory for the material between the orbit of each spinning blade and a single rectangular breaker bar. The modular vertical series coupling of the modularly tiered clear-trajectory impact comminuter apparatus may be adjusted to accommodate the material throughput for any environment whereby, for any given size of comminution chamber and rotary blade configuration, any number of tierable, modular comminution chambers may be vertically tiered for achieving the desired material throughput in relation to the load of comminutable material.
