Publication number: 20240132385Abstract: A biological wastewater treatment process utilizes biology carriers having recesses or pores defined on their surfaces. Biology form a biofilm or granular biofilm on the surface of the biology carriers and within. The pores or recesses protect the biology. As dissolved oxygen is consumed by biology close to the openings of the recesses or pores, less dissolved oxygen reaches biology living deeper within the pores. The pores thereby define aerobic, anoxic, and anaerobic regions within each biology carrier. Some examples of the biology carriers may be made at least in part from biochar or other partially charred materials. The resulting biological process requires less physical space than conventional flocculant sludge based processes and is more readily established and maintained verses traditional aerobic granular sludge.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Robert Wiley, Donato Massignani, John Larson

Publication number: 20240071593Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Anna Leigh DAVIS, Scott M.

Publication number: 20210283008Abstract: A medical device system is disclosed that includes a wearable harness worn, during use, on a torso of a subject. Engines coupled to the wearable harness may apply an oscillation force to at least one treatment area of the subject in order to mobilize at least some secretions in an airway within the subject substantially adjacent to the at least one treatment area. The wearable harness may be secured on the subject using one or more straps coupled to the wearable harness. A controller may determine a tension force applied by at least one of the straps by receiving, measurements of at least one property from a force sensing element (e.g., a force sensor) integrated with the strap. The tension force may also be correlated to forces being applied to the subject by the engines.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Harold David Shockley, JR., Geoffrey Albert Marcek, Robert Wiley Ellis
