  • Patent number: 11617354
    Abstract: A method for shrimp aquaculture, in which, all growth phases and essential operations are modularized and integrated to form a multi-phasic synchronous super-intensive shrimp production system controlled by a custom designed cyber-physical platform. Modular components include, for example, post-larvae nursery modules, grow-out production modules, recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) modules, feed distribution modules, and regulatory elements comprised of Program Logic Controllers (PLCs) integrated with Human Interface Modules (HIMs).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8853454
    Abstract: The present invention relates to quaternary ammonium salts and their use as mold inhibitors. The quaternary salts can be prepared by a chloride ion-promoted reaction between a tertiary amine and an alcohol or polyol in strong acid solution. The quaternary ammonium salts can be applied to a substrate in order to impart anti-mold properties to the substrate. Preferably, the quaternary ammonium salt compounds are applied to paper substrates in an amount of about 1000 ppm. Preferably, the quaternary ammonium salts compounds are applied as mixtures of more than one quaternary ammonium salt compound. The treated substrate does not require encapsulators, binders, or retention aids.

  • Publication number: 20040171687
    Abstract: A sporicidal composition prepared by mixing ingredients including: (1) a mono-carboxylic acid compound; (2) a non-ionic peroxide or its conjugate base; (3) a salt of an inorganic mono-peroxy acid; and (4) an aqueous acidic solution or fine suspension to give a pH of from about 0.5 to about 3.0 in the sporicidal composition.
