Publication number: 20130313343Abstract: A system and process for separating plastic material from aggregate material. The system and process may utilize airflow through a venturi to dry the plastic and aggregate materials. The plastic particles may then be electrically charged and collected by a grounded drum. In some instances, the separated plastic may then be further processed, for example to produce energy sources.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2013Publication date: November 28, 2013Inventor: Levi New

Patent number: 8448884Abstract: A system and process for separating eggshell membranes from eggshells. The system and process may utilize airflow through a venturi to pulverize the eggshell and thereby separate the eggshell from the membrane. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the process may also extract moisture from the membrane and eggshell. The system may further be configured to collect the pulverized eggshell particles separately from the membrane material.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2011Date of Patent: May 28, 2013Assignee: Taprogge Gesellschaft mit beschraenkter HaftungInventor: Levi New

Publication number: 20130081934Abstract: According to various embodiments, systems and methods are provided for converting sewage, sludge, wet feedstock, animal waste, municipal trash, and/or other biomasses into combustible fuels. According to various embodiments, sewage is dewatered, pulverized, desiccated, pelletized, and/or subjected to pyrolysis in order to produce bio-fuels, combustible gases, and/or chars. Bio-fuels, gases and/or chars may be collected during and/or after pyrolysis for use as combustible fuels. According to various embodiments, the collected bio-fuels, gases and/or chars may be transported for later use as a fuel. The collected gases may be liquefied and transported for later use as a fuel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2012Publication date: April 4, 2013Applicant: PULVERDRYER USA, INC.Inventor: Levi New

Patent number: 8057739Abstract: A liquid purification system operates an air flow generator to provide a high speed air flow. The air flow passes through a venturi and liquid introduced into the air flow passes through the venturi and is subjected to compression, heat, and shockwaves. The air flow generator may be computer controlled and automatically directed in response to sensed contaminants.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2005Date of Patent: November 15, 2011Assignee: PulverDryer USA, Inc.Inventors: Wayne A.

Patent number: 7909577Abstract: A venturi receives incoming material through an inlet tube and subjects the material to pulverization. The material, as it undergoes pulverization, is further subject to moisture extraction and drying. An airflow generator, coupled to the venturi, generates a high speed airflow to pull the material through the venturi and into an inlet aperture in the airflow generator. The airflow generator directs the received pulverized material to an outlet where the material may be subsequently separated from the air.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 2009Date of Patent: March 22, 2011Assignee: PulverDryer USA, Inc.Inventors: William Graham, Levi New, Wayne Arthur Case

The material, as it undergoes pulverization, is further subject to moisture extraction and drying. An airflow generator, coupled to the venturi, generates a high speed airflow to pull the material through the venturi and into an inlet aperture in the airflow generator. The airflow generator directs the received pulverized material to an outlet where the material may be subsequently separated from the air. An acoustic emission sensor receives the resonant frequencies generated by material passing through the airflow generator. The resonant frequencies reflect a material flow rate that is adjusted to avoid an overload situation. An automatic balancer system couples to an axel rotating the airflow generator to provide balance, improve efficiency, and eliminate cavitation.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2005Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Power Technologies Investment Ltd.Inventors: William Graham, Levi New, Wayne Arthur Case
