Abstract: An apparatus for filtering an industrial slurry, a non-suspended mixture of solid particulate matter and liquid produced by an industrial process, is disclosed. A method and system for filtering an industrial slurry and recycling liquid filtrate are additionally disclosed. One example of an apparatus for filtering an industrial slurry can include a receptacle, a false bottom disposed within the receptacle and containing an effluent exit, and a filter disposed within the effluent exit.

Abstract: A Multipurpose Desktop Organizer, is supported by a platform, supporting it's geographical wood components seated on its face. The Pen and Pencil containers glued into a routered groove, for durability, the cell phone port supports the cell phone in cased in the pocket and retained by Velcro. The I phone, I pad and Tablet ports, support these devices, rotating to accommodate the rotating function of the I Phone and Tablet.

Abstract: Water soluble air controlling agents can be admixed with dispersant for cementitious compositions to provide an admixture for cementitious compositions that is stable over time. The water soluble air controlling agents are compatible with water based dispersants. Suitable water soluble air controlling agents include alkoxylated polymers. A cementitious composition is provided that includes cement, water, a dispersant for cementitious compositions, and a water soluble air controlling agent. A method is provided for making a cementitious composition that includes mixing cement, water, a dispersant for cementitious compositions, and a water soluble air controlling agent.

Abstract: An improved freeze-thaw durability wet cast cementitious composition is provided that uses microspheres that are blended directly into the wet cast cementitious composition. The microspheres provide voids in the wet cast cementitious composition material matrix, and such voids act to increase freeze-thaw durability of the cured and hardened cementitious material.

Abstract: An improved freeze-thaw durability wet cast cementitious composition is provided that uses in-situ production of gas by gas generating additives and optionally polymeric microspheres that are blended directly into the mixture. The gas generating additives and the polymeric microspheres provide void spaces in the material matrix, and such void spaces act to increase freeze-thaw durability of the material.

Abstract: An improved freeze-thaw durability dry cast cementitious composition is provided that uses very small (0.1 ?m to 100 ?m average diameter) polymeric microspheres that are blended directly into the mixture and optionally gas-generating additives. The polymeric microspheres provide void spaces in the material matrix that act to increase freeze-thaw durability of the material. In this dry cast cementitious composition, polymeric microspheres act as pre-formed voids.

Abstract: Amine solubilizing agents are mixed with water insoluble defoamers and optionally a dispersant for cementitious compositions to provide an admixture for cementitious compositions that is stable over time. A method is provided for controlling the amount of air in a cementitious material in a predictable manner that includes mixing cementitious material, water, a water insoluble defoamer, an amine salt solubilizing agent that solubilizes the water insoluble defoamer, and optionally a dispersant for cementitious compositions.

Abstract: A strength improvement admixture composition is provided that increases the compressive strength of cementitious compositions without negatively increasing the setting time. The admixture comprises the components of a polycarboxylate dispersant and strength improvement additive.
