Abstract: A centrifuge having a housing containing a rotational mechanism and a centrifugal container having a longitudinal axis. The rotational mechanism has a circuit including an electrical motor, a switch, and an internal electrical power source. The centrifugal container is operably connected to the rotational mechanism through the housing, and is rotatable about the longitudinal axis. The centrifuge is portable and is for single use.

Abstract: Eco-friendly systems, methods and processes/processing (EFSMP) or an integrated Matrix encompasses stand-alone and/or interconnected modules for completely self-sustained, closed-loop, emission-free processing of multiple source feedstock that can include pretreatment, with poisoning materials isolated during pretreatment being further recycled to provide useful materials such as, for example, separated metals, carbon and fullerenes for production of nano materials, sulfur, water, sulfuric acid, gas, heat and carbon dioxide for energy production, and production of refined petroleum, at a highly-reduced cost over the best state-of-the-art refining methods/systems that meets new emissions standards as well as optimizes production output with new ultra-speed cycle times.

Abstract: The distillation reactor consists of a reactor apparatus with corresponding method of upstream distilling and purification of carbon based liquid or liquidized streams for use as fuels, lubricating oils and or gaseous energy and electricity production. The distillation reactor consolidates the atmospheric and vacuum distillation processes along with desalting, defueling, deasphalting, fractionation, thin/wiped film evaporation and Hydro finishing into an advanced high velocity, high volume single reactor system. Carbon based feed streams include either a single stream or preferably, a combined stream of liquefied coal slurries, crude oils, spent oils, Pyrolyic oils and or peat or other plant carbon derived liquids, vapors, mists or gases. The method further consists of controlling the mix ratio, flow velocity, sequential fractionation and filtration technology and processing atmospheres of the carbon feeds with the reactor apparatus.

Abstract: A core reactor comprises a multistage single, dual, multi-directional or reversible flow system including at least: 1) a power generation stage; 2) a power amplification stage or stages; 3) apparatus feed and/or an internal processing system; and an optional flow recycle and/or propulsion stage. The core reactor can include the following interconnected components: 1) primary kinetic energy device (s); exhaust nozzles; 2) single or multilevel swirl chambers; 3) single or multiple conical vortex cones; and 4) modified vortex tubes(s) for cryogenic, sonic or extreme thermal heart generation streams. The present core reactor is capable of generating/storing electricity, electrical power and/or energy beams including, inter alia: 1) exothermic and endothermic heat; cryogenic cold; 3) sonic resonance; 4) luminosity; 5) thrust; 6) vacuum; and 7) electromagnetism.

Abstract: A dimension sensor is used in conjunction with a tube and includes a body member and at least one detector element. The body member has an inner surface defining an opening sized to receive the tube. The at least one detector element is connected to the body member and has a detector portion extending into the opening. When the tube is received in the opening, the detector portion is initially disposed apart from the tube. A method using the dimension sensor stops expansion of the tube expanding from a pre-expanded state to a desired expanded state. A pumping device is actuated to pressurize a fluid by an amount sufficient to cause the tube to expand from the pre-expanded state to the desired expanded state. When the tube expands to the desired expanded state, the pumping device deactivates thereby stopping expansion of the tube at the desired expanded state.
