Abstract: Reflected thermotherapy is a superior way to use ambient and available transmitted electromagnetic energy to treat a broad variety of illnesses. Warm blooded animals transmit a large amount of electromagnetic energy that can be reflected for thermotherapy. Using reflected electromagnetic energy from existing sources eliminates the need for a power supply, infrared lights, and cords. The problem is that in our modern energized world broad spectrum ambient and available transmitted electromagnetic energy from source may be contaminated with extra bandwidths of the full electromagnetic spectrum. This broad-spectrum energy when reflected onto a patient target can make the patient feel uncomfortably warm and produce undesirable effects. A variety of reflector coatings are available that can limit the spectra reflected back to a target from a broad spectra source. Gold finishes or tailored ceramic finishes are examples of spectral limiting coatings.

Abstract: Apparatus for treatment of multiple articles located in separate chambers (38) for treatment with an ambient or heated, and/or treated air flow stream (44); and processes for drying multiple articles located in the separate chambers (38) using an ambient or heated, and/or treated air flow stream (44). The chambers (38) are within a container or form a container (36), and the chambers (38) are connected in a manner that defines a virtual air flow stream tube having a length in excess of any single nominal length dimension or of any nominal internal width dimension or of any nominal internal height dimension of the container so that any to-be-treated items supported within any chamber is treated with air flow stream (44).

Abstract: A method and system for filtering water in aquarium tanks comprising: a macerating/comminuting chamber with a continuously self-cleaning screen covering the discharge outlet that only allows, optimally sized, easily digestible, organic material to pass out of the macerating/comminuting chamber and into an, optionally self-cleaning, media containing denitrifying microbes. There are three different embodiments that use the method of the current invention. These comprise: a reverse flow under-gravel filter apparatus with the macerating/comminuting chamber and filter screen on the discharge side of the pump, a reverse flow under-gravel filter apparatus with the macerating/comminuting chamber and filter screen on the inlet side of the pump, and an external box filter apparatus with the macerating/comminuting chamber on the discharge side of the pump.
