Abstract: A solvent composition has an oxygenated solvent and a siloxane solvent. In one embodiment, the oxygenated solvent is propylene glycol methyl ether and the siloxane solvent is hexamethyldisiloxane or octamethyltrisiloxane. In another embodiment, the solvent composition is an azeotrope of propylene glycol n-butyl ether and decamethyltetrasiloxane. The siloxane solvent can be used in any situation where one desires to remove a silicone deposit, e.g., conformal coatings, adhesives, sealants, greases, heat transfer fluids, paints, oils, etc.

Abstract: A cleaning system for a meat-packing plant includes a tank with a potassium-based cleaner disposed in the tank. A track has a gambrel disposed on the track. The track includes a dip over the tank to dip the gambrel into the potassium-based cleaner as the gambrel moves along the track. A processed animal carcass is removed from the gambrel prior to the gambrel being dipped into the potassium-based cleaner. A fresh animal carcass is disposed on the gambrel after the gambrel is dipped into the potassium-based cleaner.

Abstract: A fuel stabilizer formulation includes a hybrid component that acts as an antioxidant, a chelating agent, and lubricant when added to the fuel, one or more vapor suppressants, and a water scavenger. Furthermore, the formulation may include components that bond with gasoline compounds to prevent evaporation of low-end components, form a layer along with the engine metal that prevents condensed water from corroding the metal, prevent corroded metal ions from destabilizing gasoline compounds into resin, and scavenge water to prevent water deposits at the bottom of the tank which limits biological activity, resulting in an overall improvement in oxidation stability over conventional fuel stabilizers.

Abstract: A face mask has a first woven filter layer comprising a first yarn and a second woven filter layer comprising a second yarn. The second yarn is disposed at a non-right and non-parallel angle relative to the first yarn. The second woven filter layer is stitched to the first woven filter layer. A third woven filter layer with a third yarn can be added with the third yarn at a non-right and non-parallel angle relative to both the first yarn and second yarn.

Abstract: A converter-dissolver composition in an aqueous solution of carbonate or bicarbonate, chelating agents, hydroxide base, and surfactant wetting agent. A mixture of the chelating agents and carbonate or bicarbonate is diluted with deionized water. The mixture reacts for five minutes. The hydroxide base is added to the mixture to form an in-situ reaction with the carbonate or bicarbonate and reacted for another five minutes. The solution pH is adjusted with the chelating agent. The surfactant wetting agent is added. The aqueous solution is heated to 70-230° C. and applied to a surface of oil or gas well and pipeline equipment with metal sulfate scales in a ratio of 3.78 liters of the aqueous solution per 0.45 kilograms of the metal sulfate scales. The aqueous solution reacts for 0.25-1.5 hours to dissolve the metal sulfate scales. The aqueous solution and dissolved metal sulfate scales are flushed from the surface.
