Abstract: Apparatuses, capacitor arrays, and methods for generating therapeutic compressed acoustic waves (e.g., shock waves). In the apparatuses and at least some of the methods, a plurality of electrodes can disposed in a chamber that is defined by a housing and configured to be filled with liquid, and a plurality of capacitors can be electrically connected to the electrodes and can be carried by (e.g., physically coupled to) the housing. Voltage pulses can be applied simultaneously to the plurality of electrodes (e.g., to begin to vaporize and ionize portions of the liquid to provide at least one inter-electrode conductive path between the plurality of electrodes) and to the capacitors to charge the plurality of capacitors). The plurality of capacitors can be configured to, upon reaching a threshold charge, discharge to the plurality of electrodes (e.g.

Abstract: An Improved Fluid well pumping system and method to produce the system. According to the system, it relates to ones that provide improved, low cost, efficient and low maintenance pumping systems for obtaining fluid from a source. It is envisioned that the systems will be used for removing oil, water, sludge, gaseous fluids, or leachates from shallow to medium depth wells (0 to 4000 feet depths). However, the invention has application for raising any fluids as needed above ground.

Abstract: The invention is a rust proofing composition containing a copolymer in latex form derived from:(i) vinylidene chloride(ii) vinyl chloride; and(iii) one or more alkyl acrylates and/or alkyl metharcylates having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms is the alkyl group; anda chelating agent comprising pyrogallol, said pyrogallol being present in an amount between 0.5 and 5.0 percent by weight of said aqueous emulsion.
