Abstract: A device for preparing a lithium composite transition metal oxide includes first and second mixers continuously arranged in a direction in which a fluid proceeds, wherein the first mixer has a closed structure including a hollow fixed cylinder, a rotating cylinder having the same axis as that of the hollow fixed cylinder and having an outer diameter that is smaller than an inner diameter of the fixed cylinder, an electric motor to generate power for rotation of the rotating cylinder, a rotation reaction space, as a separation space between the hollow fixed cylinder and the rotating cylinder, in which ring-shaped vortex pairs periodically arranged along a rotating shaft and rotating in opposite directions are formed, first inlets through which raw materials are introduced into the rotation reaction space, and a first outlet to discharge a reaction fluid formed from the rotation reaction space.

Abstract: A cavitation reactor having a pulse valve for receiving an input fluid flow and generating a pulsed output flow that is provided to the input of a resonance chamber, such as a tube. The pulse valve uses a shaft with a number of regularly spaced lands to form fluid conduits between an input port and the output port connected to the resonance tube to cause fluid communication between the input and output ports to be regularly opened and closed, thereby producing a pulsed output that drives the formation of resonance waves in the resonance chamber. The shaft is rotated at a suitable frequency to produce cavitation bubbles that collapse in the resonance chamber without damaging the valve shaft.

Abstract: Apparatus useful for feeding a particulate starter material comprising nutrient and bacteria to a mixing tank, for solubilizing the starter material inside the mixing tank, for promoting growth of the bacteria and for discharging an aqueous slurry comprising the bacteria from the mixing tank. The apparatus preferably has a gravity-flow feeder and discharge port, does not require a pump, and comprises disposable parts.

Abstract: A system for delivering microingredient feed additives into a feed ration includes a storage hopper with a mixer element attached to an agitator shaft that is configured to agitate a high-moisture feed ingredient in the hopper when the agitator shaft is rotated. A micromachine includes storage containers for storing low-inclusion ingredients, and meters and dispenses precise amounts of selected low-inclusion ingredients without using a fluid carrier. A mixing conveyor receives and mixes the high-moisture feed ingredient and the selected low-inclusion ingredients.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for blending a predetermined fluid with a main fluid wherein a source of a predetermined fluid is mixed with a main fluid. The predetermined fluid flows through an inlet of a positive displacement pump assembly and transferred to a mixing chamber through an outlet of the positive displacement pump assembly. A turbine blade assembly located within the mixing chamber is used to mix a main fluid flowing into the mixing chamber with the predetermined fluid for eventual dispensing through an outlet in the mixing chamber when desired.

Abstract: A container (10) including first and second reservoirs (11, 14) for containing products to be mixed. The first and second reservoirs (11, 14) each have an opening, with the opening of the first reservoir (11) being closed by a threaded lid (12). The second reservoir (14) has a storage position and a discharge position for discharging product contained in the second reservoir (14) into the first reservoir (11) for mixing with the product of the first reservoir (11). Displacement of the second reservoir (14) from the storage position to the discharge position requires rotation of the lid (12) in a direction to open the opening of the first reservoir (11) whereby that rotation facilitates release of the second reservoir (14) from the storage position.

Abstract: In a device (1) for stirring and for dosing the mixing ratio of different kinds of liquid (2), in particular of paints (3) and a thinning agent (4), consisting of a stirring rod (6) and a reservoir container (5) in which the liquids to be mixed together are filled, it should be possible to measure the amount of liquid (2) to be added in relation to the amount of fluid (2) already contained, and to do so in a quick and easy manner using the stirring rod (6).

Abstract: According to the present invention, an anti-reflective film formed under a resist film is removed in a photolithography process of a wafer without affecting the resist film. According to the present invention, in a photolithography process of a substrate, an anti-reflective film having solubility in the developing solution is formed and thereafter a resist film is formed. In development treatment after exposure processing, a developing solution is supplied to the substrate to develop the resist film. At an instant when the development of the resist film is finished, a second developing solution lower in concentration than the developing solution is supplied to the substrate. Only the anti-reflective film is dissolved and removed by the supply of the second developing solution. The developing solution is supplied to the substrate by a supply nozzle having a stirrer.
