  • Publication number: 20250185677
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for combining dehydrofreezing and medium to far spectrum infrared radiation to preserve biological material. IR transfers energy and penetrates food products, thereby removing naturally present moisture. The present invention provides a novel method of combining pH treatment, infrared radiation, freezing, and vacuum-sealing for preserving biological material. Biological materials are preserved through either a pH treatment or with heat to remove harmful pathogens, followed by processing using far spectrum infrared radiation which may be powered by either gas or electric means. The processed materials undergo a freezing process which may be done using Individual Quick Freezing or blast freezing methods The frozen processed material is then packaged via vacuum sealing.

  • Publication number: 20250185718
    Abstract: A cartridge for an aerosol provision system that includes the cartridge and a control unit. The cartridge includes an air channel extending from an air inlet for the cartridge to an outlet via an aerosol generation region; a heating element for heating aerosolizable material, such as liquid, from a reservoir to generate aerosol in the aerosol generation region; and a valve located in the air channel upstream of the aerosol-generating region. The cartridge is configured such that air passing through the air channel is configured to pass from the air inlet, past the air valve, into the aerosol-generating region, and then out from the aerosol outlet.

  • Publication number: 20250185721
    Abstract: An aerosol provision device includes a housing; a consumable including aerosol-generating material. The aerosol provision device or the consumable includes an aerosol generator to generate an aerosol from the aerosol-generating material. The device includes a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, and a high-side load switch coupled to or coupleable with the aerosol generator, and processing circuitry coupled to the high-side load switch, the pressure sensor, and the temperature sensor. The processing circuitry is configured to output a modulated signal with an adjustable duty cycle to cause the high-side load switch to connect and disconnect power to the aerosol generator. The processing circuitry is configured to implement a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) algorithm to adjust the duty cycle based on the processing circuitry determining whether the measurements of temperature or the measurements of pressure take precedence for implementing the PID algorithm to adjust the duty cycle.

  • Publication number: 20250185723
    Abstract: An aerosol provision device includes an aerosol generator which includes two or more aerosol generating zones, a controller and an aerosol outlet position AO. Each aerosol generating zone has a geometric center and the geometric center of an aerosol generating zone is spaced a distance CD from position AO. Each of the aerosol generating zones is a member of one of a plurality of aerosol generating groups. Each aerosol generating group includes at least one aerosol generating zone. The mean of the distance CD for all the aerosol generating zones contained in an aerosol generating group is the group distance GCD, and the mean of the group distance GCD for all the aerosol generating groups is a distance MGCD. The difference between each group distance GCD and distance MGCD is less than 15.0% of the distance MGCD, and the controller is configured to activate the aerosol generating zones of one or more aerosol generating groups on receipt of a signal to do so.

  • Publication number: 20250185724
    Abstract: An electronic atomization apparatus and a control method are provided. The electronic atomization apparatus is controlled by a controller to power a heating element, so that the heating element heats a liquid substrate at a constant target temperature. The controller is configured to periodically and repeatedly perform a control step to control the power provided by a battery cell directly or indirectly to the heating element. The control step includes: determining a preset target temperature; determining, based on a current temperature of the heating element or a difference between the current temperature and the target temperature, power required for the heating element to be heated to the target temperature or maintain the target temperature within a predetermined time period of a single cycle; and controlling the battery cell to directly or indirectly output the required power to the heating element until the predetermined time period ends.
