  • Patent number: 12290054
    Abstract: A recirculating aquaculture system using a biofloc fermenter and aquaponics may include a breeding water tank that breeds farmed fish, a drum filter that filters breeding water drained from the recirculating aquaculture system; an automatic filtration system in which the breeding water of the drum filter is moved and purified; a biofloc fermentation system that supplies and mixes oxygen to backwash water of the automatic filtration system; and a plant cultivation system that cultivates plant with the breeding water mixed with stable and high-concentration oxygen moved from the biofloc fermentation system.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11875921
    Abstract: A carbon nanotube (CNT) cable includes: a pair of plated twisted wires, each wire comprising one or more sub-cores, at least one sub-core comprising CNT yarn; a dielectric surrounding the plated twisted wires; and an electrical layer surrounding the dielectric, the electrical layer configured to shield the CNT cable. A method for making a CNT cable includes: controlling a deposition rate, depositing plating so as to surround a pair of wires, each wire comprising one or more sub-cores, at least one sub-core comprising CNT yarn; twisting the plated wires together; and surrounding the plated twisted wires with an electrical layer configured to shield the plated twisted wires, thereby creating the CNT cable.

  • Patent number: 10128022
    Abstract: A carbon nanotube (CNT) cable includes a pair of plated twisted wires, wherein each wire includes one or more sub-cores, wherein at least one sub-core includes CNT yarn; a dielectric surrounding the plated twisted wires; and an electrical layer surrounding the dielectric, wherein the electrical layer is configured to shield the CNT cable. A method for making a CNT cable includes the steps of controlling a deposition rate, depositing plating so as to surround a pair of wires, wherein each wire includes one or more sub-cores, wherein at least one sub-core includes CNT yarn, twisting the plated wires together, and surrounding the plated twisted wires with an electrical layer configured to shield the plated twisted wires, thereby creating the CNT cable.
