Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for applying controllable current to portions of an electrodeposition device via a series-in-parallel-out rectifier circuit. In particular, the rectifier circuit includes a front-end stage that includes an alternating current-to-direct current converter circuit to generate one or more direct current signals from an alternating current signal of an input terminal. Additionally, the rectifier circuit includes a back-end stage including a plurality of direct current-to-direct current converter circuits that convert the one or more direct current signals into a plurality of child direct current signals. Furthermore, the plurality of direct current-to-direct current converter circuits of the disclosed series-in-parallel-out rectifier circuit are in physical contact with an anode of the electrodeposition device at a plurality of different positions to apply separate currents to different portions of the anode.

Abstract: By blending a quantity of synthetic cyclo-paraffinic kerosene fuel blending component comprising at least 99.5 mass % of carbon and hydrogen content and at least 50 mass % of cyclo-paraffin into kerosene base fuel, kerosene based-propulsion fuels can be upgraded to higher quality kerosene based-propulsion fuels such as jet fuel or rocket fuel to meet certain specification and/or increase volumetric energy content of the propulsion fuel.

Abstract: A dispenser system for a fluid container includes a two-stage valve having a chamber disposed in-between an active valve and a passive valve. The chamber and related components may be configured to encourage recapture and sealing of pooled fluid in the chamber under a variety of usage scenarios. The chamber may include a reservoir to recapture fluid that has pooled within the spout when the container is angled for a pour. At the same time, a number of channels may divert outbound fluid flow around the chamber during pouring to ensure that this recapture reservoir is not over-filled with fluid during high-flow-rate pouring scenarios. These two techniques may be used alone, or in combination to simultaneously address recapture of statically and dynamically disposed fluid within the spout.
