Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to compositions containing peroxy gluconic acid, treatment fluids containing such compositions and methods of using the treatment fluids during various oil- and gas-field operations, water treatment, paper and pulp processing, and general disinfection.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to compositions containing percitric acid, treatment fluids containing such compositions and methods of using the treatment fluids during various oil- and gas-field operations including hydraulic fracturing, remediation, production, disposal well chemistry and cleaning equipment both above surface and downhole used in connection with oil- and gas-field operations.

Abstract: A ground engaging agricultural blade, coulter, or disc having a central opening adapted to be attached to an implement for rotation about a substantially horizontal axis of rotation; the coulter or disc have an outer periphery; and plurality of step plane notches disposed in the outer periphery. The blade can be used with a hub disposed around the central opening or a spacer spool on a shaft extending through the central openings of adjacent blades, the spacer spools extending radially outwardly by a distance.

Abstract: A multi-layer roofing membrane is provided including a top sheet including a co-extruded cap and inner layer and a bottom sheet. The use of a co-extrusion die allows for multi-layer sheets that reduce the need for expensive fillers in all but a cap layer of the membrane. A scrim reinforcement layer is optionally embedded in the membrane. When installed on a roof substrate, the membrane can be sealed by heat welding the seams of the membrane sheets or by other means.

Abstract: The present invention provides a retrofit system for replacing the shovels on existing, outdated tillage equipment with coulters. Such tillage equipment includes cultivators and field cultivators. An advantage provided by the coulters is their use in high crop residue conditions. Where shanks with shovels can become clogged with crop residue, coulters will cut through the crop residue while providing tillage. One or more coulters are attached to each shank from which a shovel was removed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wavy coulter having a plurality of variable-amplitude waves, each wave defined by a crest and an adjacent valley. The coulter is mounted on an implement such that a leading peripheral edge of the coulter rotates in a downward direction as it enters the soil. The waves having larger amplitudes of deviation from flat provide a driving force for turning the variable wave coulter. The waves having smaller amplitudes of deviation from flat provide penetration into the soil. The result is a coulter that is forgiving in both wet and dry soil conditions.
