Abstract: A system for generating biochar includes a reactor body with a wall defining a substantially cylindrical shape and comprising a first end positioned opposite a second end and defining an opening extending through the reactor body. A conduit is positioned within the reactor body, extends across the opening, and defines a slot configured to direct a fluid toward the first end. An extraction cone is coupled with the first end of the reactor body and is configured to direct biochar away from the reactor body. A cover is coupled with the second end of the reactor body and is configured to direct exhaust gas away from the reactor body.

Abstract: A biochar production system includes a reactor body, a central rod disposed within the reactor body, a leveling arm extending from the central rod and configured to rotate about the central rod, and a bed level sensor system. The bed level sensor system includes a float configured to move from a resting position on a biomass in the reactor to an ending position upon contact with the leveling arm, and a level sensor coupled to the float via a connector. The level sensor is configured to correspondingly move with the float. A controller is configured to detect bed levels of the biomass within the reactor body, and determine a plurality of sample readings based on the detected bed levels.

Abstract: A retention member is configured to be supported within a cylinder head of an engine and includes a body portion and a plurality of arms. The body portion has an opening configured to receive a fuel injector of the engine. Additionally, the plurality of arms extends from the body portion and is configured to be positioned over a portion of a cross-head of the engine. The plurality of arms is spaced apart from the cross-head during routine operation of the engine.

Abstract: A variety of scissors gear assemblies are disclosed that utilize integral parts or common tools to align teeth of the scissors gear assembly. Methods of use are also disclosed.

Abstract: A fuel pump includes a body portion housing a fuel pump assembly configured to receive a rotational input and generate fuel flows, a drive shaft extending into the body portion with a pump gear coupled to the drive shaft, and a pilot portion annularly disposed about the drive shaft adjacent to the body portion. A fuel pump adapter is removably and annularly disposed about the pilot portion and configured to engage a gear housing within a fuel pump aperture.
