Patent number: 10053381Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for inhibiting scale formation and microorganism growth within a moving water system, with the apparatus including: (i) a pulse-power assembly having a fly-back pulse generator circuit effective to produce a current pulse that when terminated yields a voltage spike and generates a plurality of frequencies of energy, where the fly-back pulse generator circuit comprises a coil as an integral portion of the fly-back pulse generator circuit; and (ii) a chamber for passing water from the moving water system therethrough, where the coil is wound around the chamber so as to transmit the plurality of frequencies of energy into the chamber in order to inhibit scale formation and microorganism growth within the moving water system. Water treatment systems and methods of using the apparatus are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2012Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: ENVIRONMENTAL ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Ali Ogut, Richard J. Backus

Patent number: 8991153Abstract: A method and system for treating emissions includes charging particles in an exhaust stream, producing one or more radicals, and oxidizing at least a portion of the charged particles with at least a portion of the produced radicals. At least a portion of the charged particles in the exhaust stream are then attracted on at least one attraction surface which is one of oppositely charged from the charged particles and grounded. The attracted particles are oxidized with another portion of the one or more produced radicals to self regenerate the at least one attraction surface. Downstream from where the attracted particles are oxidized, at least a portion of one or more first compounds in the exhaust stream are converted to one or more second compounds downstream from the attracting. Additionally, at least a portion of any remaining charged particles are oxidized into one or more gases.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2011Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignee: Rochester Institute of TechnologyInventors: Ali Ogut, Chen Cheng

Patent number: 8157902Abstract: The present invention is broadly directed to non-thermal plasma-based systems for reducing the amount of particulate matter in a gas stream, as well as to methods for using such systems. The present invention is particularly directed to such non-thermal plasma-based particulate matter reduction systems with self-cleaning surfaces. Particularly contemplated are self-cleaning surfaces that reduce particulate matter buildup such as is likely to cause the reduction of non-thermal plasma production in the system, and therefore the ability of such systems to reduce the amount of particulate matter in the gas stream.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2009Date of Patent: April 17, 2012Assignee: Environmental Energy Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Ali Ogut, Richard Backus

Publication number: 20070045197Abstract: A disinfection system and method includes a reactor with a chamber and at least one radiation source. The chamber in the reactor has at least one inlet that is oriented to generate a vortex motion for a fluid introduced to the chamber. The radiation source is positioned to be offset from an axis which extends along a center of the chamber of the reactor. The radiation source at least partially directs radiation towards a circulating flow of the fluid in the chamber from the vortex motion in at least a gap between a wall of the chamber of the reactor and the at least one radiation source.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2006Publication date: March 1, 2007Applicant: Rochester Institute of TechnologyInventors: Ali Ogut, Jian Yu
