  • Patent number: 11894152
    Abstract: A housing assembly configured to house a reactor is disclosed. The housing assembly includes a plurality of modular walls configured to surround the reactor and a passive temperature control system. The plurality of modular walls includes a first modular wall. The passive temperature control system is coupled to the first modular wall. The passive temperature control system is configured to transfer heat between the reactor and an area around the housing assembly.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230170101
    Abstract: A container for transporting a reactor is disclosed. The container includes a loop thermosiphon including a chamber, a heat exchanger fluidically coupled to the chamber, and an actuator including an unactuated state and an actuated state. The actuator is configured to automatically transition to the actuated state. The transition is based on an event occurring within the reactor. A working medium is configured to remove heat from the reactor in the actuated state.

  • Publication number: 20210030930
    Abstract: Embodiments of a negative pressure wound therapy systems and methods for operating the systems are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system includes a pump assembly, canister, and a wound dressing configured to be positioned over a wound. The pump assembly, canister, and the wound dressing can be fluidically connected to facilitate delivery of negative pressure to a wound. The pump assembly can present graphical user interface screens for controlling and monitoring delivery of negative pressure. The system can be configured to efficiently deliver negative pressure and to detect and indicate presence of certain conditions, such as low pressure, high pressure, leak, canister full, and the like. Monitoring and detection of operating condition can be performed by measuring one or more operational parameters, such as pressure, flow rate, and the like.
