Abstract: A vertical manure converter and related process of using activated carbon in an activated carbon/organic material mixture to process organic waste. Inducing air, preferably compressed, into a chamber of the converter in combination with reusing activated carbon can result in a continuous process. The temperature can be controlled by regulating the air into the chamber. The vertical manure converter takes organic waste and uses heat to accelerate the composting process wherein final products can be purified water and ash fertilizer.

Abstract: A method of inputting text in an electronic device (201) including a display (203) and an input user interface (202) having a plurality of keys (210) arranged in a predetermined pattern includes a plurality of steps. In a first step, a list of potential characters is compiled and includes at least one subset less than or equal in number to the number of keys in the keypad matrix (207) on the input user interface (202). The first subset from the list of potential characters is displayed in an arrangement corresponding to the position of the keys (207). The desired character selection is received by sensing actuation of a key on the input user interface (202) corresponding to the position of a character on the display (203).
