  • Patent number: 9911160
    Abstract: The present invention provides a tax payment system and method for accurate payments, which transfer accurate withholding tax payments from taxpayers to governments and accurate payroll payments from employers to employees with accurate employee information. Current Tax Schedules, Tax Tables and Tax Computation Worksheet are combined together for their simplification with related linear and graduate formulas. Accurate information of income tax payments, withholding tax payments and employees or businesses can be reported to the IRS or a state government by January 15 or February 15 with adjustments. Then governments can be ready to verify and/or inspect tax returns before sending out tax refunds. Therefore potential tax theft crimes could be reduced significantly or avoided to save billions of dollars.

  • Publication number: 20170236220
    Abstract: The present invention provides a linear and gradual (LG) tax rate system with a tax processor for tax software products. Existing two tax systems of federal individual Tax Schedules and Tax Table/Tax Computation Worksheet are simplified and combined into one LG tax rate system. The tax processor and software product are designed for taxpayers (employees, employers or self-employments) to file tax returns, for employers to do payroll to employees and transfer withholding taxes to governments or for governments to inspect tax returns by comparing tax withholding reports and tax returns according to related standards instead of existing random selections. Differences of taxes, tax rates and taxable incomes are set at low, mid and high levels for tax return options, quick tax refunds, regular inspections and detail audits to reduce tax returns and potential tax crimes and save tax processing time and costs (billions) for businesses, individuals and governments.

  • Publication number: 20160302445
    Abstract: A processing method to convert oily sticky food byproducts into non-oily and non-sticky dry products by using liquid animal blood is provided. Moisture in the food byproducts is reduced for reducing drying cost and pH is adjusted to 4-10 with preferred range at 6-8, then liquid animal blood is mixed, heated to above 65° C. for coagulation to form non-oily and non-sticky wet products after removing free water. Then related drying equipment is used to produce the non-oily and non-sticky dry products. The non-oily and non-sticky dry products are in particle or fine form with good flowability. The dry products are easy to be stored, transported and applied, which are used in food and feed industries. Besides general feed applications, the non-oily and non-sticky dry products have bypass function for ruminants.

  • Publication number: 20150196046
    Abstract: A novel and practical process to convert the oily sludge from food industry and waste water treatment into a non-oily feed product in dry and free-flowing form for animal applications is provided. The combination of an alkaline agent to encapsulate the oily sludge into a non-oily form and a particulate material to provide solid surface as a carrier is used to convert the oily sludge into a non-oily wet paste or particle form. Then a drying process with a commercial dryer is applied for producing an animal feed product in non-oily, dry and free-flowing form. The animal feed product retains a fat level, which is generally higher than normal animal feed products, but in an easily handled, non-oily, non-sticky, free-flowing and dry form. The process of the invention converts the problematic food waste sludge with oily, sticky and wet properties into the useful nutritional products with the improved properties.

  • Publication number: 20130204758
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a tax simplification table product to convert all Tax Table and tax calculations into the simplification table product with filing status, taxable income, tax rate formula, tax rate range check, tax rate and tax calculations together. Tax rate formulas are connected with filing statuses. A calculated tax rate is examined and compared with its correct tax rate range, which avoid or reduce calculation mistakes. Related calculations are done automatically or manually. Automatic calculations are done by a calculator or computer software product. Manual calculations are done by paper work easily. Existing Tax Tables from federal and local governments are not needed. The Tax Tables are replaced by tax rate formulas. The tax simplification table product simplifies the existing government tax systems and save time and cost significantly for individuals, corporations and governments.

  • Publication number: 20040202771
    Abstract: Two novel processing methods of producing an improved food waste sludge product and an improved animal blood product with good nutritional value, yellowish color, mild smell, and low micro counts from the food waste sludge of dissolved air flotation (DAF) units, the sludge fat and animal blood of food processing plants are provided. The products are used for feed and fertilizer nutritional applications. The fat-protein product from the food waste sludge and animal blood also has the bypass and protection functions of the fat and protein for dairy animals to produce more milk at lower cost. The process to convert the food waste sludge from food processing plants into a value-added product with good nutritional value, yellowish color, mild smell, and low micro counts by the economical processing method could save millions of dollars for food and feed industries.

  • Publication number: 20040022929
    Abstract: A method for preparation of feed, biodiesel, lubricant oil and fatty oil products from agricultural materials without prior fat or oil extraction process is provided. The agricultural materials can be from animal and plant products, their byproducts and waste materials. The feed products from the process can be used as more safe nutritional ingredients for animal feed and fertilizer applications. The method is particularly advantageous because it produces esters as biodiesel and lubricant oil substitutes and feed ingredients from an one-stage process, which increases feed safety and reduces the processing cost. The deactivation process could save millions of dollars for rendering industry each year.

  • Patent number: 6368657
    Abstract: A practical precipitation recovery process for food waste sludge from dissolved air floatation (DAF) units and sugar by products is provided. Typical meat DAF (dissolved air floatation) skimming sludge has about 12% solid with about 40% fat and 42% protein in solid basis. The skimming sludge is often for land application to cause a pollution problem. Much of the potential nutritive value of the skimming is lost through microbiological degradation. The process converts the skimming sludge and animal blood into a precipitate, which binds most nutrients. Then the precipitate product can be separated easily by a centrifuge, screen or press process. The dry process cost can be reduced because the extra water is removed and the product surface area is increased. The process can convert the waste skimming sludge into a value added product as a good and safe ingredient for feed and nutritional applications. A typical dry product has about protein 54%, pepsin digestible protein 96%, fat 23%, ash 8.
