Abstract: An example mobile kiln system includes a mobile platform. A frame is mounted to the mobile platform. At least one kiln is rotatably mounted to the frame. The kiln is movable between a first operational position for loading a feed material into the at least one kiln, and a second operational position for unloading a biochar product from the at least one kiln following processing of the feed material. In an example, the mobile kiln system includes at least one stack assembly for the kiln. The stack assembly has a lid to cover the kiln to retain heat and a chimney to release emissions from the kiln during processing of the feed material.

Abstract: A process of fiberglass recycling, such as for windmill blades or other feedstock having a fiberglass component. An example of the process includes cutting a feedstock having a fiberglass component. After cutting the feedstock, it is fed into a controlled kiln for pyrolyzing. Pyrolysis is at a temperature of about 550-650 degrees Celsius to completely remove all resins, epoxies, and other non-fiberglass components from the feedstock to produce a fiberglass end-product.

Abstract: Methods of producing a polyolefin wax product are provided herein. In an embodiments, a method of producing a polyolefin wax product includes providing a cracked polyolefin vapor phase and a polyolefin liquid phase that are derived from a recycled polyolefin feedstock having a higher number average molecular weight than the polyolefin wax product. A portion of the cracked polyolefin vapor phase is condensed at a temperature and pressure above a boiling point of olefins having less than or equal to 12 carbon atoms to produce the polyolefin wax product.

Abstract: This invention provides a novel biocidal premixture, particularly useful as a component in cellulose reinforced thermoplastic composites. The inventive biocidal premixture includes a combination of a biocidal agent, either a coupling agent, a lubricant, or both. The addition of such biocidal premixtures to cellulose reinforced thermoplastic composite materials offers improved resistance to attack by molds, fungus, algae, and the like, improved adhesion stability, greater moisture resistance and aging resistance, limited leaching, enhanced toughness moduli, and increased efficiency in such composites. Products using the inventive biocidal premixtures are useful in forming materials for exterior building applications such as decks, siding, roofing, windows, moldings, docks, wharfs and the like.

Abstract: A binding device preferably used for adorning and securing the hair of a user therein. The binding device has a first member in the shape of a character and a second member extending therefrom and adapted to display a body of the character. The second member being elongated to enclose an elongated and flexible binding element therein such that said binding element turns upon itself to form an opening which securely, yet removably, receives a lock of hair of a user therein.

Abstract: A chair protecting device made of a first sheet that is turned upon itself and attached along vertical edges thereof to form a cavity to accommodate a back of a chair. The sheet has an inner layer that is made of a fluid impervious material and an outer absorbent layer for maintaining spills therebetween and preventing any spilled fluid from reaching the chair.

Abstract: A floor protecting device made of a generally planar sheet having an axially defined opening therein such that an inner edge defines the opening. An outer edge distal to the inner edge defines an outer periphery of the sheet. A resealable slit extends from the inner edge to the outer edge and allows installation of the sheet around the base of a fixture.
