Grooved porous media gas trap for terrestrial and microgravity environment
A gas trap assembly including a base connector housing including an inflow port and an outflow port, a reservoir fluidly connecting the inflow port to the outflow port, and a grooved porous media located within the reservoir. The grooved porous media including a plurality of grooves and composed of a material having a plurality of pores of a selected size. The grooved porous media fluidly divides the reservoir into two portions in such a way that a working fluid flowing from the inflow port to the outflow port must flow through the plurality of grooves and the plurality of pores of the grooved porous media. The plurality of grooves and the plurality of pores are configured to prevent gas from passing through the grooved porous media.
Method for improving water balance and/or efficiency in ethanol production
A method and system for balancing water content in a liquid mixture is described. The method includes using an direct column contact evaporator to reduce the water content in the liquid mixture. The liquid mixture is provided in the open column direct contact evaporator with relatively dry air. The dry air evaporates excess water from the liquid mixture to concentrate the liquid mixture while at the same time reducing the energy required for water evaporation elsewhere in the plant.

Industrial wastewater recovery apparatus aiming at zero liquid discharge (ZLD)
The present invention provides an industrial wastewater recovery apparatus (100) aiming at Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD). The apparatus (100) provides two stages in pre-heating the spiral coil pipe (103) containing wastewater and also conserves the heat by using the two heat exchangers (104, 105). The apparatus (100) agitates the surface wastewater to increase the rate of evaporation for faster heating. The apparatus (100) provides two stages in condensation of distilled water and also provides real-time monitoring of the water quality. The apparatus (100) provides automatic cleaning in the various parts during the operations. Further, a plurality of IoT sensor (201) monitor the real time parameters of the industrial wastewater recovery apparatus (100) and data is available to the user on the electronic display device (204).
