  • Publication number: 20220306489
    Abstract: Methods for capture of biogas from a wastewater system are disclosed herein. The methods may include the step of collecting biogas within a collector chamber of a biogas collector formed at an elevated location in a wastewater system, the biogas being released from wastewater passing though the collector chamber. The methods may include the step of controlling the withdrawing of biogas from the collector chamber, and the step of capturing the biogas withdrawn from the collector chamber. The methods may include performing the step of collecting biogas within a collector chamber of a biogas collector by reducing a pressure within at least portions of the collector chamber. The methods may include the step of conveying biogas withdrawn from the collector chamber to a biogas disposer. Related apparatus for capture of biogas from a wastewater system are disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 10844592
    Abstract: A ground cover strip is provided for use with a modular home skirting system to provide ground cover for protecting the skirting system during grounds maintenance and for suppressing vegetation. The ground cover strip includes flexible straight and corner pieces laid end-to-end on the ground surface around a perimeter of the modular home. The ground cover strip has a bottom, an outer edge, an inner edge, and a top between the outer and inner edges. The top has an open channel formed therein which faces upwardly and receives a base of a ground channel member. The top also has an outer portion that slopes downwardly from the open channel to the outer edge. Anchoring spikes are driven through the base of the ground channel member and the ground cover strip and into the ground to anchor the ground cover strip and the ground channel member to the ground.

  • Publication number: 20200297014
    Abstract: A food and beverage paste preparation is formed by delivering a flour derived from nuts, seeds, grain or beans into a shear mixer. The flour may have a mean particle size between about 0.002 and 0.012 inches and a moisture content between about 4 to about 6 percent. The flour is sheared without adding water for mixing to form a food and beverage paste. The temperature during shearing does not exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit and the food and beverage paste after shearing has a mean particle size of about 1 to about 40 microns.
