Abstract: The portable fire protection system comprises a self-contained apparatus including a quantity of fire extinguishing agent, a pump, a pop-up sprinkler head, a power supply, and a receiver. A remotely located smoke and fire detector communicates wirelessly with the receiver to actuate the apparatus in the event that smoke and/or fire is detected. The extinguishing agent is dispensed from the tank by the pump and the pop-up sprinkler head, with the head automatically deploying when water pressure is provided thereto by the pump. The low pressure sprinkler head dispenses a wide array of various sizes of droplets when the system is activated.

Abstract: This invention presents a versatile and continuous drying technology that utilizes controlled heat combined with forced air supply for drying a feedstock. The dryer virtually divided top-down into different zones, each having definite heated air distribution rate to secure desired condition for drying of the feedstock. The heat source of the dryer is waste heat, either provided by the feedstock itself through exothermic heat generated by the feedstock or reclaimed waste heat or solar heat. The discharge system of the dryer is a fail-safe discharge system, which ensures equal residence time for the feedstock through all the zones.
