Patent number: 11053174Abstract: The present application relates to systems and methods for processing organic material. The methods may include extraction of biochemical nutrients from organic material, such as food scraps. The method can include comminuting the organic material to form a slurry from components comprising liquid and organic material; combining the slurry with microorganisms, such as a yeast, under aerobic conditions to form a mixture of the slurry and yeast; aerating the mixture; and forming a biomass and a nutrient-rich broth, in which the biochemical nutrients are stabilized and anabolized. The systems may, in some embodiments, be configured to perform the methods of processing organic materials.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2020Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: WISErg CorporationInventors: Larry LeSueur, Jose Lugo, Ken Deering, Victor V.

Publication number: 20180014672Abstract: Disclosed is a lid for a drinking cup with a detachable headband. The lid is removably securable to a drinking cup to prevent or minimize spills. A wearable headband attaches to the lid, frictionally secured between at least two protrusions extending upwardly from the top surface of the lid. The headband is attached to the lid by snapping it into place between the two protrusions and can be detached from the lid for wearing by a user. A recess may be formed in the lid between the protrusions so that an upper surface of the headband may extend generally flush with the upper surface of the lid.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2016Publication date: January 18, 2018Applicant: Creative Consumer Concepts, Inc.Inventors: Tyler Daniel Coey, Douglas Matthew Kubert, Robert Andrew Houston, Michael Bridge
