A method of cleaning oil and gas core samples includes a vapor extraction step and a drying step. The vapor extraction step includes transferring core samples into and sealing the vapor extraction chamber, heating liquid solvents and maintaining an elevated temperature and a positive pressure in the chamber until an extraction time expires, cooling and transferring the core samples out of the chamber. The drying step includes transferring the cleaned core samples into a dryer, drying the core samples until substantially free of solvents, and cooling the core samples.

An electrical cooking appliance with automatic cleaning of a cooking chamber is provided. The appliance may include a steam supply device configured to generate steam and supply the steam to the cooking chamber; a water supply pump that supplies water from a water tank to the steam supply device; a water discharge pump that collects condensed water from the steam supply device into the water tank; and a controller configured to activate the water supply pump to supply water to the cooking chamber to clean the cooking chamber; and activate the steam supply device to supply steam to the cooking chamber to clean the cooking chamber.

A portable wash basin assembly for cleaning a tool includes a wash basin having a base and at least one sidewall that extends upward from the base to an upper edge. The wash basin is configured to receive a liquid for cleaning the tool. A plurality of legs are coupled to the wash basin and are adjustable between a use position and a non-use position. A drain is located in the basin and configured to direct the liquid within the basin to a location below the basin. The wash basin is supported upon a frame. The portable wash basin assembly has a first height when the plurality of legs are in the use position and a second height, less than the first height, when the plurality of legs are in the non-use position. The legs are pivotably coupled to the frame between the use position and the non-use position.

A roasting and glazing apparatus includes a roaster, an agitator mounted within the roaster bowl for mixing a mixture of nuts and sugar during a roasting or glazing operation, a heater controlled to heat the roaster bowl during the roasting or glazing operation, and a cover removably mounted to the roaster bowl. The cover includes a reservoir for receiving water from a user and restricting water flow from the reservoir into the mixture of nuts and sugar in the roaster bowl. The cover and the roaster bowl together define a vent on a side of the cover opposite the reservoir. The vent is configured to direct steam out of the roaster bowl in a direction away from the reservoir.

The invention relates to a facility which has a dirty facility area and an adjacent clean facility area, baskets for receiving the dirty articles, and a wall separating the dirty area from the clean area, the dirty area including an entry door for receiving the dirty articles, pre-processing stations with tables for the pre-washing and/or sorting by a human operator, or even by a robotic operator, of the dirty articles and for arranging the pre-washed and/or sorted articles in the baskets, pick-up points at the pre-processing stations for pick-up of the baskets with the pre-washed and/or sorted articles, a plurality of washers, eg. machines operating in a manner similar to a dishwasher, positioned along the dividing wall, for washing the pre-washed and/or sorted articles arranged in the baskets, the washers having an inlet opening in the dirty area and an outlet opening for washed articles in the clean area, the clean area including processing stations with tables for processing by a human operator, or even a robotic operator, of the washed articles. One or more unmanned vehicles are configured for travelling on the floor of the dirty area at least between pick-up points and an inlet opening of the respective washers, each vehicle including a base with a front end and a rear end, an upper part with a loading platform configured for supporting the baskets, an on-board control device for receiving and executing mission information, each pre-processing station including a first type control device for direct or indirect communication with one or more of the vehicles, each washer including a respective second type control device for direct or indirect communication with the one or more vehicles and/or for direct or indirect communication with the first control devices, each first control device being for calling a vehicle to the pick-up point and/or for dispatching a vehicle from the pick-up point.

In a chemical mechanical polishing system, a platen shield cleaning assembly is installed on a rotatable platen in a gap between the rotatable platen and a platen shield. The assembly includes a sponge holder attached to the platen and a sponge. The sponge is held by the sponge holder such that an outer surface of the sponge is pressed against an inner surface of the platen shield.

A gas turbine engine system includes a gas turbine engine including a compressor, combustor including a plurality of late lean fuel injectors supplied with secondary fuel; gas turbine, and wash system configured to be attached and in fluid communication with the late lean fuel injectors. The wash system includes a water source including water; first fluid source including a first fluid providing vanadium ash and vanadium deposit mitigation and removal from internal gas turbine components; a mixing chamber in communication with the water source and first fluid source; a water pump to pump the water to the mixing chamber; a first fluid pump the first fluid to the mixing chamber; a fluid line in fluid communication with the mixing chamber and late lean fuel injectors so fluid from the mixing chamber is injected into the combustor at the late lean fuel injectors while the gas turbine engine is on-line.
