  • Publication number: 20240139647
    Abstract: A method for preparing bio-active particles by spray drying, liquid nitrogen quick-freezing, and vacuum freeze drying includes the following steps: transporting a feed liquid into a preheated spray tower, wherein the feed liquid forms liquid droplets after being atomized by an atomizer in the spray tower, dispersing air is introduced into a top of the spray tower, and the dispersing air disperses the atomized liquid droplets; introducing hot air into the top of the spray tower, wherein the liquid droplets are partially formed into dry-like particles after being dried by the hot air, the surface dried particles fall, through a bottom of the spray tower, into a cooling pool arranged under the spray tower, and the particles, after being frozen, are transferred to a freeze drying device for freeze drying.

  • Patent number: 11645950
    Abstract: The invention discloses a bionic human esophagus and stomach digestive system including a bionic stomach assembly and a bionic esophagus assembly. The bionic stomach assembly includes a bionic stomach including a stomach body provided with a pylorus and a cardia, a rolling compression apparatus disposed outside the stomach body for performing rolling compression on the bionic stomach, and a gastric juice tube in fluid communication with the stomach body. The bionic esophagus assembly includes a bionic esophagus in fluid communication with the cardia, a first and second esophagus clamp which are respectively clamped at two ends of the bionic esophagus for controlling the esophagus to be opened or closed, and a vibrator disposed between the first and second esophagus clamps for driving the bionic esophagus to vibrate. In the application, the bionic stomach and esophagus are subject to mechanical compression and vibration, thereby simulating a real stomach digestive system.

  • Patent number: 11535540
    Abstract: The invention discloses a double-tank oxidation pond for evaluating catalytic ozonation efficiency, comprising detachable tank bodies made of organic glass, movable ozone aeration pipes and sampling holes. Each tank body has three sections. The height of ozone aeration tube and the number of the holes can be adjusted. The holes are distributed at different positions of the tank bodies for real-time in-situ sampling. It is easy to observe the distribution profile of the gas, liquid and solid phases in the tank bodies. The square double-tank structure is similar to actual production process, and thus the experimental data is easy for computer simulation to enlarge to the actual production process. The size of the ozone aeration pipe and the position of holes in the tank can be adjusted to evaluate the catalytic ozonation effect of sewage treated by different aeration ways and aeration heights.
