  • Patent number: 12089586
    Abstract: A waterfowl decoy has an elongate body portion with a forward end and a rearward end, and a head portion adjacent the forward end of the body portion, the head portion and the body portion defining an outer surface that simulates a waterfowl. A spoon extends downwardly and forwardly from the forward end of the body portion, the spoon having a leading edge positioned forwardly of the body. A jerk line is attached to the spoon rearwardly of its leading edge, so that when the decoy is deployed in water, pulling the jerk line causes the forward end of the decoy to dive, creating a splash and simulating realistic motion of waterfowl.

  • Publication number: 20240228346
    Abstract: A biological wastewater treatment process utilizes biology carriers having recesses or pores defined on their surfaces. Biology form a biofilm or granular biofilm on the surface of the biology carriers and within. The pores or recesses protect the biology. As dissolved oxygen is consumed by biology close to the openings of the recesses or pores, less dissolved oxygen reaches biology living deeper within the pores. The pores thereby define aerobic, anoxic, and anaerobic regions within each biology carrier. Some examples of the biology carriers may be made at least in part from biochar or other partially charred materials. The resulting biological process requires less physical space than conventional flocculant sludge based processes and is more readily established and maintained verses traditional aerobic granular sludge.
