Publication number: 20240062167Abstract: The present disclosure is a software method that uses data from data sensors, installed along a pyrolysis apparatus, to analyze chemical reactions based on fluid and solid chemical traits of polymers in a plastic recycling process and to use the results to determine deficiency or abundance of chemicals, relative to an ideal chemical ratio. The deficiency or abundance of chemicals is translated into a deficiency or abundance of specific polymers.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Applicant: Clean-Seas, Inc.Inventors: Daniel L.

Patent number: 9157414Abstract: A wind energy apparatus is made up of a plurality of modular wind energy devices or units. Each unit has a housing and at least two turbines mounted on the housing. Each of the turbines has a blade set extending upward from the housing. Each blade set has a vertical axis extending upward in relation to the housing. Each of the turbines has a generator connected thereto, each generator being disposed in the housing, and having a rotor and a stator. Each turbine is rotatably mounted with respect to the housing, and mounted to the rotor so that they rotate together. Each housing has a positive connector and negative connector on each side of the respective unit. The units, when placed together, connect their respective poles, positive and negative, together completing a circuit. Therefore, one may connect multiple units together.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2014Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: WINDSTREAM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Daniel L. Bates, Bob G. Schlicher, John R. Owen, Ravi K. Tangirala, Srinivas K. Guntur, Gary E. Johnson

Patent number: 8341152Abstract: A method and system for generating and linking keywords to objects in videos, and then providing an internet searchable web page is disclosed. The objects also may be associated with hyperlinks to further information, further objects, or further videos or web pages. First, objects within a video are selected. Then software for tracking the objects throughout a video is used to determine in which frames the object appears. Data corresponding all frames in which the object first appears and last appears is determined. Second, an object descriptor term or phrase is associated with the object. The object descriptor is then used to generate a set of keywords, which along with the object descriptor, are stored in memory in association with the object and video, preferably an XML file or other format. Then, the keywords or keyword phrases are converted to a search engine searchable computer language, e.g., HTML, CSS, and posted to a web page.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2006Date of Patent: December 25, 2012Assignee: Creatier Interactive LLCInventor: Daniel L.
