Technologies (e.g., devices, systems and methods) for sanitizing reservoirs of humidifiers are described. In some embodiments, the technologies include a sanitization gas system and a connector unit. The connector unit is configured to install into a portion (e.g., wall, bottom, top, or lid) of a reservoir, such as a reservoir of a humidifier. The connector unit includes an inlet passageway for supplying sanitizing gas (e.g., ozone) into the reservoir, and an outlet passageway for removing sanitizing gas from the reservoir. In some embodiments at least a portion of the outlet passageway is disposed radially around the inlet passageway. The sanitization gas system may provide a sanitizing gas to the inlet passageway and receive the sanitizing gas from the outlet passageway.

The present invention relates to a gas monitoring device having a gas tight base unit containing a sensor. The base unit is detachably connected to an elongated hollow rod having a perforated tip end and a base unit connection end. The base unit comprises a sensor, a data processor, a telemetry unit, a battery with wireless charging and an internal on/off switch. The invention also relates to a method of monitoring the gas concentration within a fumigated commodity sample comprising inserting the tapered perforated end of a gas monitoring device into a commodity sample.

Embodiments of systems and approaches for managing post-harvest crop quality and pests are described. Such a system may include a plurality of edge devices each comprising sensor components and collectively forming a mesh network, for measuring the local physical environment within stored crops and, for example, transmitting the measurements to a service from within the crop storage area. In certain embodiments, such a system may be used to manage post-harvest crops and storage areas-for example, approaches are described for determining fumigation treatment duration, determining phosphine dosage, determining heat treatment duration, and determining safe storage time for crops.

A liquid storage element, a wicking element, a cooling element, a condensate absorbing element, and a supporting element using in an aerosol emission device is disclosed. The aforementioned elements have a three-dimensional network structure formed by thermally bonding bicomponent filaments, the bicomponent filaments have a sheath and a core. The aforementioned elements having a three-dimensional network structure formed by thermally bonding the bicomponent filaments according to the present invention can be conveniently assembled in the aerosol emission device.

Described herein is an apparatus for dispensing a substance. The apparatus comprises a fan, a wind tunnel, a heating coil, a receptacle, and a container. The fan is adapted to create an air flow in a particular direction. The wind tunnel has a proximate end and a distal end, and is connected to the fan to receive the air flow in the proximate end and channel the air flow towards the distal end. The heating coil is disposed inside the wind tunnel configured to generate heat. The receptacle is to the wind tunnel. The receptacle has an intake hole, an access hole, a discharge hole, and a heating chamber. The heating chamber connects the intake hole, access hole, and the discharge hole. The container is disposed in the heating chamber and has an opening. The cover covers the access hole. The receptacle receives the air flow from the proximate end of the wind tunnel and channels the air flow from the intake hole around the container to the discharge hole. Additionally, the heating chamber is heated with the heat from the heating coil.
