Abstract: An electrochemical cell provided with two half cells. A pressure or density differential is created between the cathode and anode electrodes, each of which is contained in one of the half cells. The pressure or density differential is created by single or multiple sources including compression, vacuum, weight (gravity) of mass, chemical, molecular, or, pressure or density differentials created by thermal gradients.

Abstract: A pump assisted chemical feeder for the treatment of pressurized water systems. There are various methods to dispense chemicals into pressurized water systems, including typical configurations of venturis, slug feeders, and electronic metering pumps. The described invention includes the use of adjustable bypass loops, pumps, and pressure differentials, to provide a reliable and adjustable means of introducing chemicals into a pressurized water system.

Abstract: A pressure driven apparatus comprising a housing, at least one flexible membrane located within the housing dividing the interior of the housing into at least two chambers. At least one input or exhaust cam assembly operates in conjunction with the at least one flexible membrane to provide an expansion zone within the housing. Fluid enters the housing producing movement of the flexible membrane. The flexible membrane is connected to a drive member such that the movement of the fluid within the expansion zone results in the membrane imparting a force to the drive member. The flexible membrane includes seals used to maintain a dynamic and movable seal with respect to the housing. A lightweight journal-less crankshaft and non-friction variable speed transmission with inherent clutch and free spin are also disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus for thermally decomposing organic feedstock material utilizing a series of connected vessels. Each of the vessels is provided with an inlet and an outlet for transferring the organic feedstock material between the vessels. Separate heat exchangers are located between the inlet and outlet of each vessel. A catalyst material, such as a permeable mesh, is included between the inlet and outlet of each vessel to accelerate liquefaction of gaseous hydrocarbons.

Abstract: A pivoting fin used to control the movement of a surfboard. The pivoting fin is provided with a rotatable hinge allowing the fin to rotate in the “roll” axis of the surfboard. The rotatable hinge is inserted into base position which in turn is secured to the underside of the surfboard.
