The body portion has at least one panel of a flexible material and is sized and adapted to line the interior surface of the chute. The liner also has a plurality of apertures through the upper border portion for attaching the upper border portion to the upper portion of the chute. The flexible material of the body portion is a woven fabric with polymeric fibers and, optionally, a polymeric coating.

In a casting sand reclamation system and a casting sand reclamation method, an appropriate reclamation process is performed according to the properties of casting sand to improve the reclamation accuracy and the reclamation yield. Capacitance measuring devices 70 and 71 that measure the capacitance of casting sand 1 (recovered sand 1a or reclamation sand 1b) are arranged on an upstream side and a downstream side of a batch-type polishing device 7, and feedback control is performed based on the measurement results of the capacitances by these capacitance measuring devices 70 and 71. A sorting device 10 sorts the recovered sand 1a polished by the polishing device 7 into a sand grain component (reclamation sand) and a fine grain component (containing a binder), and has a capacity N times that of the polishing device 7. A control device 80 performs feedback control based on capacitance RU of the recovered sand 1a measured for each polishing process on an upstream side of the polishing device 7, and an average value of N capacitances RD of the reclamation sand 1b measured for each polishing process on a downstream side of the sorting device 10.

The present invention relates to a mixing system for a bioreactor, comprising a plurality of supply units (10), each being able to hold media for use in a bioreactor a mixing unit (30) for creating a uniform mixing of media a first feeding mechanism (20), arranged to feed media from the supply units (10) into the mixing unit (30), a control unit (40) operatively connected to the first feeding mechanism (20) and the mixing unit (30), said control unit (40) being configured to control the first feeding mechanism (20) to feed predetermined amounts of media from the plurality of supply units (10) to the mixing unit (30), and further being configured to control the mixing unit (30) to create a uniform mixing of media. The invention also relates to a method for mixing media for use in a bioreactor.

Magnetic stir bar having at least one permanent magnet to spin the magnetic stir bar when the magnetic stir bar is subjected to a rotating magnetic field. The magnetic stir bar has a chamber to store a product within the magnetic stir bar. The magnetic stir bar has a closed configuration in which the chamber is closed and an open configuration in which the chamber is open. The magnetic stir bar automatically reconfigures itself from the closed configuration to the open configuration when said magnetic stir bar is spun at or above a threshold rotational speed.
