Patent number: 11178863Abstract: The inventive subject matter provides a method for the incorporation of colored photoluminescent materials to be sprayed on to plants and soils. The incorporation of colored photoluminescent materials assists the spray operator through the use of black lights allowing for more precise low right or nighttime spray and seeding operations. More specifically, this invention relates to a colored photoluminescent adjuvant to be applied to targeted crops, plants and seeds to assist in the low light or nighttime application of bioactive agents, such as chemicals and pesticides. The colored photoluminescent adjuvant can be applied as a solution or a foam.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2020Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Floratine Products Group, IncInventors: Kevin Cavanaugh, Timothy B.

Patent number: 11013168Abstract: The present disclosure describes a system, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for analyzing soil samples. Accordingly, soil sample units may be obtained and provided to a server that generates raw data. The raw data is sent to a database, where it is downloaded. The raw data is subsequently organized into a sub-report for each nutrient or variable contained in the raw data. An average for each nutrient in the raw data and a number of additional factors related to the raw data may be calculated. The average and additional factors are used to determine bulk recommendations by comparing target data to an exchangeable measured value. Additionally, the factors are also used to determine challenges and solutions by comparing the average data to the target data for each nutrient. The system compares the raw data to the measured values and mathematically adjusts the compared values to compute an optimal treatment algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2019Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: Floratine Products Group, IncInventor: Timothy B.

Patent number: 10631541Abstract: This invention provides a method of enhancing plant growth involving the steps of: providing an application of nitrogen-15 isotope to a plant to obtain a concentration of nitrogen-15 isotope at least 10 percent greater than the concentration occurring in an untreated plant. A plant growing in a treated area exhibits at least one of: increased plant yield measured in terms of increased root length and increased leaf area compared to a plant growing in a portion of untreated soil. Furthermore, the step of providing the application of nitrogen-15 isotope to a plant includes treating a foliar portion of a plant with a synergistic concentration of a nitrogen-15 isotope, wherein a treated plant exhibits at least one of: increased plant yield measured in terms of increased root length and increased leaf area, compared to a plant growing without a treatment of a synergistic concentration of the nitrogen-15 isotope.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2017Date of Patent: April 28, 2020Inventor: Timothy B.

Patent number: 9309163Abstract: The present invention provides a method to increase phosphorus uptake in plants. This can be accomplished by mining phosphorus both in the free and bound state from the soil solution surrounding the roots of a plant. The process of mining involves the release of phosphorus from the bound state and the solubilization of unbound phosphorus to facilitate uptake by the roots of a plant. The mining of phosphorus can be accomplished by providing a phosphorus solubilizing compound having: i) at least one natural root acid; ii) at least one vitamin and iii) at least one crystalline carbohydrate, to a portion of a plant. The phosphorus solubilizing compound can be applied to plants to extract available phosphorus from the soil. This product can be either a soluble liquid or a solid.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2014Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: Floratine Products Group, IncInventors: Kevin Cavanaugh, Timothy B.

Patent number: 4619732Abstract: Pulping liquor, which has been pre-concentrated to at least 50 weight percent solids, is dried in a fluidized bed dryer to produce a solid in particulate form. In the fluidized bed dryer, pre-formed particulates are fluidized by a gaseous medium substantially of superheated, unsaturated steam, and additional heat is supplied to the fluidized bed by higher pressure saturated steam passing through heat-exchange tubing within the fluidized bed region. Pulping liquor is introduced into the fluidized bed where the superheated steam vaporizes a substantial portion of its water content. The fluidizing steam becomes substantially saturated during its passage through the region of the fluidized bed, and a substantial portion of this substantially saturated steam is used upstream to pre-concentrate the pulping liquor.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 1985Date of Patent: October 28, 1986Assignee: The Institute of Paper ChemistryInventors: David T. Clay, Timothy B. Cartwright
