Patent number: 11685864Abstract: A system for producing biocoal and biochar includes at least one rotary compression unit (RCU) having a barrel, a compression screw housed within the barrel, a feed for receiving biomass and at least one exit for releasing biochar and gasses formed in the RCU. A first exit stream is produced that includes biochar and a portion of the remaining gasses, and a second exit stream is produced that includes biocoal. A gas crossover is provided that connects the first and second exit stream having a mechanism for transporting gasses from the first exit stream to the second exit stream thereby condensing a portion of the remaining gasses into the biocoal. In one form two RCUs are included connected to two condensers.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2017Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: ECAP BIOENERGY, LLCInventors: Robert L Heimann, Allison Talley, Lucy Mills, Nancy Heimann

Patent number: 11126853Abstract: A method and system can generate video content from a video. The method and system can include a coordinator, an image detector, and an object recognizer. The coordinator can be communicatively coupled to a splitter and/or to a plurality of demultiplexer nodes. The splitter can be configured to segment the video. The demultiplexer nodes can be configured to extract audio files from the video and/or to extract still frame images from the video. The image detector can be configured to detect images of objects in the still frame images. The object recognizer can be configured to compare an image of an object to a fractal. The recognizer can be further configured to update the fractal with the image. The coordinator can be configured to embed metadata about the object into the video.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: CELLULAR SOUTH, INC.Inventors: Bartlett Wade Smith, IV, Allison A. Talley, John Carlos Shields

Patent number: 11034905Abstract: A fertilizer/soil conditioner or a fuel source material is formed by processing animal waste by-products through the use of a rotary biomass dryer system. The animal waste by-product includes without limitation manure obtained from cattle or swine; feed lot bedding, poultry litter, a digestate of animal waste by-products obtained from an anaerobic digester, municipal waste, waste meat renderings, waste meat, or a mixture thereof. The processed material may comprise a higher amount of ash and a lower amount of volatile material than the animal waste by-product. The processed material may be stored as a powder or processed into pellets, logs, pucks, briquettes or another convenient shape form.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2016Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: ECAP BIOENERGY, LLCInventors: Robert Heimann, Allison Talley

Patent number: 10392564Abstract: A bio-product such as biochar, bio-coal, bio-oil, coke, and/or activated carbon material is formed by processing a starting biomass material comprising water-laden material. The starting biomass material is heated to below or above an autoignition temperature through a rotary compression unit (RCU) by generating steam through releasing unbound and bound waters in the biomass thus forming a bio-product. The biomass material being processed may be, without limitation, a woody or non-woody biomass material, such as cellulosic material and/or grain. The process can also form bio-oil from pyrolysis vapors which can be processed to other bio-products.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: Enginuity Woldwide, LLCInventors: Robert L. Heimann, Nancy Heimann, Allison Talley

Patent number: 10218954Abstract: A method and system can generate video content from a video. The method and system can include generating audio files and image files from the video, distributing the audio files and the image files across a plurality of processors and processing the audio files and the image files in parallel. The audio files associated with the video to text and the image files associated with the video to video content can be converted. The text and the video content can be cross-referenced with the video.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2015Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: CELLULAR SOUTH, INC.Inventors: Naeem Lakhani, Bartlett Wade Smith, IV, Allison A.

Patent number: 10093878Abstract: A method of drying a moisture-containing or water-laden biomass material is provided that includes the steps of sending the biomass material into an apparatus having a feeding device, a rotary biomass dryer, a reflux condenser, an aftercooler, and an exit mechanism. The biomass material may be pretreated, and then heated in order to separate the moisture-containing or water laden biomass material into steam and dry biomass material. The steam is removed as the steam and the dry biomass material passes through the reflux condenser, the dry biomass is cooled in the aftercooler stage, and the dry biomass material is collected after exiting the apparatus through the exit mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2016Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: ENGINUITY WORLDWIDE, LLC.Inventors: Robert L.
