Abstract: Disinfecting particulate material includes combining the particulate material with a photocatalyst to yield a mixture, irradiating the mixture for a length of time with pulses from a light source having broadband emission spectrum between 190 nm-1100 nm to yield an irradiated mixture, and separating the photocatalyst from the disinfected mixture to yield the disinfected particulate matter. Irradiating the mixture inactivates microorganisms in the mixture to yield a disinfected mixture. A system for disinfecting particulate material includes a pulsed light source having a broadband emission spectrum in a range between about 190 nm and about 1100 nm, a chamber defining a cavity optically coupled to the pulsed light source, a humidifier, a fan, and one or more sensors. The chamber includes a conveyor configured to accept the particulate material and arranged such that the pulses emitted by the pulsed light source irradiate the particulate material on the conveyor.

Abstract: The present invention provides a new energy-driven in-situ plankton collecting device, comprising a solar photovoltaic cell and wind power generation system, a buoyancy support system, a power supply and control system, a plankton suction and collection system, and an anchoring system. The device has the center of gravity on the lower part and vertically floats in water like a tumbler. The plankton suction and collection system is composed of a suction axial-flow pump and a collecting cod end. The bag-shaped plankton collecting cod end has the mesh aperture of less than 0.8 time the average body length of the target plankton, and can be used on both sides. The devices provided by the present invention can be used simultaneously and arranged in an array for collection and utilization of plankton as well as governance and remediation of water area environment, and thus have a favorable application prospect.

Abstract: A device for cleaning a contact lens includes a lid, a base portion and a drawer unit detachably coupled to the base portion. The drawer unit includes a container holding a volume of fluid therein. The device also includes a vibration generator for generating an oscillatory motion on the container, where the oscillatory motion induces turbulence in the fluid with sufficient force to dislodge deposits from a lens immersed in the fluid. The device also includes a circuit board secured to the base portion and a light source for generating radiation to disinfect the dislodged deposits in the fluid. A suspension secures the light source to the circuit board and a resonance frequency of the suspension is offset from a frequency of the oscillatory motion.
