Patent number: 8236237Abstract: A device and method for inactivating infectious biological or chemical agents using microwave-activated diazoluminomelanin (DALM). The agents are typically vacuumed into a load cavity, which is at least partially filled with DALM. The load is irradiated with microwaves via a cylindrical waveguide disposed under the load cavity, thereby inactivating or destroying the agents. The system is preferably temperature controlled and operation is preferably automated.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2007Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: Fiore Industries, Inc.Inventors: John Todd Elson, David E. Lane

Patent number: 7105787Abstract: A method and apparatus for adaptively maintaining the power-frequency spectrum in a reverberation chamber. The invention is thus capable of maintaining a relatively constant power-frequency spectrum in the chamber even when a device under examination is placed into the chamber which exhibits selective frequency absorption and or directional frequency absorption. The object disposed within the chamber need not necessarily be a device under examination. Rather, the present invention can also adaptively maintain a relatively constant power-frequency spectrum when heating any material disposed within a electromagnetic wave chamber.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2003Date of Patent: September 12, 2006Assignee: Fiore Industries, Inc.Inventor: Mark J. Clemen, Jr.
