Publication number: 20230257319Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a process for forming products from animal waste (e.g., poultry litter). The products may include a controlled release fertilizer and renewable natural gas. The process may include providing a feedstock comprising greater than about 80 percent poultry waste and a moisture content of about 25 percent. The feedstock may be diluted to form a slurry having a moisture content of about 90%. The slurry may be mechanically refined to reduce the particle size distribution and the average particle size of the slurry. The slurry may be anaerobically digested to produce biogas and a digestate. The biogas may be converted to renewable natural gas, and the digestate may be converted to a controlled release fertilizer. Additionally, some embodiments are directed to methods of reducing nitrogen emission from soil amendments. Some embodiments are directed to reducing nitrogen emissions sufficient to produce emissions offset credits.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2021Publication date: August 17, 2023Inventors: SHAWN FREITAS, WILLIAM HOLLOMAN, BRELAND OSCAR, ALAN GILBERT, THOMAS M.

Patent number: 11334622Abstract: A software system of some embodiments allows automatic logging, organization, transcription, and/or subtitling/captioning of audio/video content. User selected audio/video content is automatically transcribed. Instances and recurrences of events are automatically identified within transcripts and their corresponding clips. Recurrences of events can be automatically identified based on user identification of instances. Identifications within transcripts/clips can be automatically demarcated and logically or systematically arranged, categorized, classified, labelled, marked, grouped, and/or organized into audio/video sequences by the software system. Categorization, classification, labelling, and/or marking can be applied from transcript data, file names, order of identification occurrence, custom text, and/or analysis of audio and/or video content using AI. Transcripts can be displayed in arrangement and/or amalgamation to match the arrangement of their corresponding clips in an audio/video sequence.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2021Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Inventors: Raymond James Buckley, Silvia Geboiu

Patent number: 8503707Abstract: An embodiment provides a seal for retaining a hearing device within the ear canal comprising a curved shell having an opening at a shell apex portion. The shell defines a cavity for retention of a device component. An interior surface of a shell wall has a scalloped shape configured to distribute compressive forces applied to the shell perimeter such that when the shell is positioned in the canal, the shell wall conforms to the shape of the canal to maintain an acoustical seal between a shell exterior surface and the canal walls. The scalloped shape can be configured to produce a substantially constant amount of inward deformation of a shell wall independent of a force application point on a shell perimeter. The shell can include a coating to retain the seal in the canal and/or to promote asparagine growth into the coating to fastenly retain the seal in the canal.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2009Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: InSound Medical, Inc.Inventors: Richard C Urso, Adnan Shennib, Greg Anderson, Sunder Ram, Robert Schindler, Ian Day, James Buckley
