  • Patent number: 10357043
    Abstract: A method and system for dry aging the meat product uses a 12 volt DC powered portable unit comprising a plastic box configured for housing the primal cut of meat and placed inside a refrigeration system. The box is further equipped with an internal and external blower to control the air circulation and humidity respectively inside the box. A germicidal UV light disposed within the plenum in front of the internal blower to provide germicidal action on the dry aging meat product. A PCB controller placed on top of the box embedded with software and a humidistat to control the humidity inside the box and maintaining a closed micro environment to dry age the meat product with desired texture, flavor and tenderness.

  • Patent number: 6511646
    Abstract: A process for producing chlorine and iron oxide from iron chloride (which may be generated as a by-product of the direct chlorination of titaniferous ores) comprises the steps of converting ferrous chloride to ferric chloride by reaction with chlorine, separating the solids from the gaseous products, reacting the gaseous ferric chloride with oxygen, condensing unreacted ferric chloride onto iron oxide particles, separating the gaseous products from the iron oxide particles and recycling the iron oxide particles to the oxidation or condensation step.

  • Patent number: 5384880
    Abstract: The optical fiber cable has a plurality of centrally located optical fiber ribbons. Carrying the optical fiber ribbons is a gel-filled plastic buffer tube. An adhesive layer is applied along the outside of the buffer tube and yarns extend in a contra-helical pattern over the adhesive. The yarns are impregnated with a gel for lubricating the contact points between the yarns and a longitudinally applied mylar tape layer. The mylar tape layer is coated with a thin layer of sealant which permits application of final polyethylene outer jacket provided for additional cable protection. Embedded within the outer jacket is a pair of diametrically opposed, longitudinally extending strength members.
