  • System and building for generating electricity using wind power
    Patent number: 6765309
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and building for generating electricity using wind power. The invention includes an enclosure, a wind turbine/generator and two or more air ducts. The enclosure, which is to be mounted within or in close proximity to a building, has an air intake and an air exhaust has an air intake and an air exhaust. The wind turbine/generator generates electricity from the wind received form the air intake and is disposed within the enclosure between the air intake and the air exhaust. Each air duct has a first end connected to an air duct intake device and second end connected to the enclosure air intake.
    Type: Grant

  • Poultry defeathering apparatus and process
    Patent number: 4566151
    Abstract: The present invention comprises a poultry defeathering apparatus for use with boilers having boiler stacks. The apparatus comprises a heat exchanger which is located proximate to the boiler stacks for exchanging heat energy contained within the boiler stacks to heated air to be used in the defeathering apparatus. A hot air mixer in communication with the heat exchanger receives the heated air and cools it with ambient air to reduce the heat energy to an appropriate level. A blower in fluid communication with the mixer receives the heated air and increases its volumetric flow rate. A scalding tank is included for scalding fowl carcasses drawn through the water within the tank. The tank also includes a hot air divider positioned near the bottom of the tank and extending longitudinally along a subtantial portion of the bottom, the divider being in fluid communication with the blower to receive the heated air from the blower.
