Abstract: The present disclosure provides an anti-slip salad bowl which includes an enamel body. An outer bottom of the enamel body is coated with a silicone adhesive layer and a mixed silicone rubber layer. Correspondingly, the disclosure further provides a method for manufacturing the anti-slip salad bowl. On one hand, since the manufacturing is convenient and the related materials are easily available, the resultant bowl is cost effective. On the other hand, since the outer bottom of the enamel body is bonded with an anti-slip layer made of silicone rubber, silicone rubber adhesive, vulcanizing agent and color concentrate, the bowl will not be prone to slipping when moved or used to mix salad.

Abstract: A system and method to recover water from an ambient airstream. Dehumidification of the airstream is also achieved by removal of the water. A device of the system includes a chamber having a group of trays that hold respective amounts of liquid desiccant in each tray. A foam media absorbs the desiccant to increase an exposed surface of the desiccant to the airstream. Fans and valves are used to control airflow through the device. A charge cycle circulates air through the device to remove water vapor from the airstream. A subsequent extraction cycle removes water collected in the liquid desiccant by a condenser communicating with the chamber. A heat source adds heat to the chamber before and/or during the extraction cycle. A controller is used to integrate and manage all system functions and input variables to achieve a high efficiency of operational energy use for water collection.
