  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SYNTHESIS OF SPHEROIDIZED METAL POWDERS
    Publication number: 20220134431
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems and method for processing feedstock materials using microwave plasma processing. Specifically, the feedstock materials disclosed herein pertain to metal powders. Microwave plasma processing can be used to spheroidize the metal powders and form metal nitride or metal carbide powders. The stoichiometry of the metal nitride or metal carbide powders can be controlled by changing the composition of the plasma gas and the residence time of the feedstock materials during plasma processing.

  • Conveyor sled assembly
    Patent number: 11292677
    Abstract: A conveyor sled assembly is utilized to supply proppant in support of oilfield hydraulic fracturing operations. The conveyor sled assembly includes precisely positioned components where tolerances between components are so small as to prevent significant spillage at component junction boundaries. This manner of fitting proppant pods onto the conveyor sled assembly increases predictability of which pods will discharge their proppant load first. This enhances reliability of the overall proppant delivery system.

  • Proppant dispensing system
    Patent number: 11280158
    Abstract: A proppant container facilitates the transportation of wet sand for use in a hydraulic fracturing operation. The proppant container is provided with a system for dislodging the wet sand for subsequent use. This may be done by use of a vibrator or an umbrella valve. In another aspect, the proppant container may be used in combination with a rack having a wash system that slurries the proppant for delivery to a blender tub without necessarily resorting to use of a conveyor belt.

  • Methods for identifying modulators of GPR92
    Patent number: 11237177
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for identifying compounds that modulate the activity and/or expression of GPR92, wherein said compounds can be incorporated into flavor compositions that can be used to modify the taste and/or palatability of pet food products. In certain non-limiting embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method for identifying a composition that modulates the activity of a GPR92 receptor comprising (a) contacting a test agent with a GPR92 receptor, (b) determining the activity of the GPR92 receptor, and (c) selecting as the composition, a test agent that increases the activity of the GPR92 receptor.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ULTRASOUND IMAGING AND FOCUSING
    Publication number: 20220011270
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems and methods for ultrasound imaging and targeting. In one example, the systems and methods improve targeting and imaging through a heterogenous medium by using the angular spectrum approach (ASA) alone or in combination with passive acoustic mapping (PAM). In another example, the systems and methods improve the ultrasound imaging of vessels using microbubbles. The imaging of the vessels is also aided by the ASA and PAM. A closed loop controller is described that adjusts the ultrasound pressure provided to a region of interest to a desired pressure based at least in part on the harmonic, ultra-harmonic, sub-harmonic, or broadband frequency ranges for the microbubbles.

  • PROTECTIVE FACE COVERINGS
    Publication number: 20210393996
    Abstract: Face coverings that protect the facial T-Zone region (i.e., eyes, nose, and mouth) from airborne transmission of infectious and other harmful particles are disclosed. The face coverings disclosed herein are designed to attach to the temples, frames, and/or the bridge of eyewear, which provides protection for the eyes of the wearer and dispenses of the need to adjust straps traditionally found on face masks. The face coverings may be converted to different configurations depending on the amount of protection and comfort desired by the wearer. For example, the face coverings disclosed herein can convert from a free-hanging position to a more protective configuration in which the mask conforms closely to the face of the wearer.
