Publication number: 20100229823Abstract: Emergency lubrication systems and methods for an engine are provided. One system includes a primary lubrication system including a de-aeration oil tank configured to store de-aerated oil until the oil is de-aerated, a first oil supply line configured to provide de-aerated oil to the engine, and a first valve configured to control the flow of oil through the primary lubrication system. The system further includes a secondary lubrication system including a second valve coupled to the de-aeration oil tank and configured to control the flow of oil through the secondary lubrication system, and a second oil supply line coupled to the engine and to the de-aeration oil tank via the second valve. One method includes the steps of detecting a predetermined event in the engine, preventing the aerated oil from entering the primary lubrication system, and using the aerated oil in the secondary lubrication system to lubricate the engine.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2009Publication date: September 16, 2010Applicant: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Nathan Gibson, John Hogan, John D.

Publication number: 20100167949Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining a human identification by analyzing DNA in a biological sample. DNA in the biological sample selectively binds to one or more probes in an array of probes within a DNA authentication cell. The array of probes is genetically designed to match a pattern of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA of a particular individual or a group of individuals. A microcontroller receives the results of the DNA analysis from the DNA authentication cell and determines whether the biological sample matches or does not non-match the particular individual or group of individuals for which the array of probes was designed. An indication of the match or non-match is displayed to a user and optionally is transmitted to a remote computer using one or more wired or wireless communication networks.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2009Publication date: July 1, 2010Applicant: IISI CorporationInventors: Kevin McElfresh, John Hogan

Patent number: 7490367Abstract: Method and system for processing waste from human activities, including solids, liquids and vapors. A fluid-impermeable bag, lined with a liquid-impermeable but vapor-permeable membrane, defining an inner bag, is provided. A vacuum force is provided to extract vapors so that the waste is moved toward a selected region in the inner bag, extracted vapors, including the waste vapors and vaporized portions of the waste liquids are transported across the membrane, and most or all of the solids remain within the liner.
