  • Patent number: 11953202
    Abstract: A combustor having a rectangular prism structure with a burner assembly mounted inside for burning waste hydrocarbon gases with combustion air provided through flame arrestors from outside atmospheric air, the combusted hydrocarbon gas exiting through an opening on top of the structure. The combustor includes a controller for operating an igniter on the burner assembly and thermocouples for measuring the temperature of exhaust gas exiting the combustor and for measuring the skin temperature of the structure. The controller can relay the operational data and the location of the combustor to a central control center through a SCADA unit connected to a telecommunications network. The controller can also relay the volume of waste gas burned to the central control center to determine the carbon credits earned by preventing the waste gas being vented to the atmosphere.

  • Patent number: 8972454
    Abstract: A screen capture application captures image data by receiving a signal defining a display area for which image data is to be captured, accessing metadata relating to components within the defined display area, and, for components within the display area, storing an image of the component and storing associated position data. The screen capture application may store positional relationships between the components within the defined display area, the positional relationships including ordering of the components relative to each other. The screen capture application may store the components as a plurality of layers within a layered image file. The screen capture application may store the component images in respective files and store the position data in a control file. The control file may include details of the respective component image files.

  • Publication number: 20140271600
    Abstract: There is provided a non-cellular bandage and a method of treating damaged tissue derived from a disease or symptom by applying the non-cellular bandage that includes serum, fibrin, and collagen. There is also provided a method of preparing a non-cellular bandage for treating damaged tissue derived from a disease or symptom including the steps of preparing serum, fibrin or an equivalent substitute, and collagen; mixing the serum, the fibrin, and the collagen to form a mixture; and forming a bandage by using the mixture. The non-cellular bandage facilitates the perfect environment in which to actively promote cellular regeneration and tissue repair, while simultaneously reducing immune rejections, scar formation and infection rates when it is applied to a biological tissue.

  • Patent number: 4956883
    Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for dispensing liquid soap into or adjacent to a water stream emitted from a primary shower head mounted to a water line of a selected size. The apparatus has an auxiliary shower head from which a branch line extends of a size smaller than the water line size. It also has a mount for mounting the auxiliary shower head adjacent to the primary shower head with the branch line in fluid communication with the water line. A liquid soap reservoir is mounted in valved fluid communication with the auxiliary shower head.
