Patent number: 12098084Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for removing minerals from a conductive protonic fluid and creating oxidizers therein. A non-alternating flow of electrons in a conductive protonic fluid selectively precipitates hardness causing heavy minerals from the fluid. The decrease in hardness causing minerals leads to the protonic fluid moving towards a thermodynamic equilibrium that prevents precipitation of the noted hardness causing minerals. By-products from the process, like halogens, help oxidize other minerals and treat bio-life within the source. Systems include a vessel containing the conductive protonic fluid, a conductive protonic fluid flow mechanism, a power supply, a control mechanism, and one or more reaction chambers. The reaction chamber has at least one reaction chamber wall having a conductive surface and a conductive element.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: Dynamic Water Technologies Global, LLCInventors: Melvin Mathew, George Tuan Long Chac, Michael Christopher Boyko, Janco Vermeulen

Patent number: 11794226Abstract: The present disclosure comprises devices, systems and methods for the removal of a precipitate from a surface of a water treatment chamber using a dasher assembly having two cylindrical actuator rods connected to a dasher for scraping an interior surface of the water treatment chamber. The water treatment chamber has an enclosed first end, an enclosed second end, and an electrolysis rod extending linearly therein. The two cylindrical actuator rods extend linearly within the water treatment chamber and pass through the enclosed first end so that portions of the two cylindrical actuator rods are within the water treatment chamber and portions are outside the water treatment chamber. The dasher includes an aperture therethrough so the electrolysis rod can pass through the aperture and allow the dasher to translate from a first location and a second location by translation of the two cylindrical actuator rods via a mechanical actuator.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2020Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Dynamic Water Technologies Global, L.L.C.Inventors: George Tuan Long Chac, Melvin Mathew, Michael Christopher Boyko, Henry Mohrschladt, Steve Devoll

Patent number: 10565331Abstract: A computer-implemented method for adaptive modeling of a data stream is provided. The method may comprise receiving a plurality of data points forming part of a data stream and providing a predictive model to be fitted to the data stream. The predictive model may be a diffusion model having a plurality of diffusion parameters. A parameter estimate for each one of the diffusion parameters may be updated by obtaining a sample of at least one transition from the data stream and calculating an updated parameter estimate for the diffusion parameter by using a stochastic gradient descent algorithm on the sample. The updating of the parameter estimate may be repeated periodically or in response to one or more further data points being added to the data stream, thereby to permit adaptive estimation of the diffusion parameters of the diffusion model based on dynamics of the data stream.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2017Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Melvin Mathew Varughese

Patent number: 9981220Abstract: A fossil fuel fired power plant exhaust gas clean-up and recovery system is provided to remove detrimental compounds/elements from the exhaust gas emitting from the power plant to protect the environment and to recover useful products from the cleaning solution. This is accomplished by directing the exhaust gas from the fossil fuel fired power plant through a single wet scrubber having a cleaning solution of a predetermined pH. The cleaning solution is composed of calcium carbonate and water. A recovery process is attached thereto to reclaim calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and carbon dioxide for reuse in the process and/or for commercial use.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2017Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignee: MILLENIUM SYNTHFUELS CORPORATIONInventors: Lai O.

Patent number: 9901876Abstract: Reclaiming useful products for commercial use and/or to be reused in an exhaust gas clean-up system. This is accomplished by subjecting the power plant exhaust gas to the various cleaning fluids followed by reclaiming the useful products from the exiting cleaning liquid. As the exhaust gas passes through a medium of water and calcium carbonate in a wet scrubber, the exiting cleaning fluid contains various calcium salts. Likewise, as the exhaust gas passes through a medium of calcium hydroxide and water other calcium salts are produced. By passing these respective calcium salts through solid-liquid centrifuge separators and other separating stirred tanks, various useful products are reclaimed and reused in the process or commercially sold. Some useful products are carbon dioxide, calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate, and mercuric salts.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2017Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: Millenium SynthFuels CorporationInventors: Lai O.
