Abstract: The present invention is a method of treating acute and chronic wounds and skin conditions. The product comprises a composition or formulation comprising a mixture of buckwheat honey and bacitracin. In one unique embodiment the composition is gelled. The composition is applied directly to a wound or a patient's skin or is impregnated on gauze or other similar material on a bandage or dressing for application to an exuding or non-exuding acute or chronic wound or skin condition.

Abstract: A liquid desiccant regeneration system and method of liquid desiccant regeneration are described. The liquid desiccant regeneration system includes a liquid desiccant regenerator having an engine producing a heated exit stream, and at least one dehydrating tube comprising a first water vapor permeable wall. A low concentration liquid desiccant stream feeds into the liquid desiccant regenerator, while a high concentration liquid desiccant stream exiting the liquid desiccant regenerator. A carrier stream and the low concentration liquid desiccant are in contact with opposite sides of the first water vapor permeable wall, and the low concentration liquid desiccant stream is heated by heat from the heated exit stream to drive water from the low concentration liquid desiccant stream through the first water vapor permeable wall to the carrier stream to form a humidified carrier stream.
