A cartridge-based biofluid monitoring system and method of using same are disclosed. The biofluid monitoring system uses a biofluid cartridge configured to be removably inserted into a biofluid cartridge housing. The biofluid cartridge housing can be rotated so that multiple types of analysis can be conducted on one biofluid collection. The biofluid monitoring system may be used at a user's home or at other locations that allow for real-time biofluid monitoring to occur. The biofluid monitoring system allows for point-of-care detection and monitoring of a multitude of clinically relevant biological markers of current or changing health and disease states, by analyzing the user's biofluid.

One embodiment provides a rinse basin and blower system configured to clean a pipette including: a rinse basin comprising: a hollow tube enclosed at one end; wherein the hollow tube comprises an upper port and a lower port; and the lower port being tapered toward the hollow tube; and wherein the rinse basin is connected to a blower system; the blower system comprising: a waste reservoir that receives, from the rinse basin, a waste product comprising: air and liquid, wherein the waste reservoir separates the liquid from the air; a dryer that receives the air from the waste reservoir and further separates any remaining liquid from the air; and a blower that receives the air from the dryer and exhausts the air.

Exemplary methods of treating a chamber may include delivering a cleaning precursor to a remote plasma unit. The methods may include forming a plasma of the cleaning precursor. The methods may include delivering plasma effluents of the cleaning precursor to a processing region of a semiconductor processing chamber. The processing region may be defined by one or more chamber components. The one or more chamber components may include an oxide coating. The methods may include halting delivery of the plasma effluents. The methods may include treating the oxide coating with a hydrogen-containing material delivered to the processing region subsequent halting delivery of the plasma effluents.

A fluid collection system may include a fluid collection assembly configured to receive urine from a user, a container configured to sore the urine collected from the fluid collection assembly, a collection tube disposed between the fluid collection assembly and the container, and a bi-directional pump. The fluid collection system operates in a first configuration to draw urine from the fluid collection assembly into the container and a second configuration to drain the urine and clean the fluid collection system.

Systems and methods are provided for dispensing ice and at least one liquid, and related cleaning processes. In one embodiment, the system comprises an ice bin for storing a quantity of ice particles, a dispensing tube for carrying at least a first liquid, and a discharge chute in communication with a discharge outlet, wherein the discharge chute is disposed upstream of the discharge outlet. An outlet end of the dispensing tube is positioned within a portion of the ice bin at a location aligned above the discharge outlet. The ice particles and the first liquid are dispensed through the discharge outlet separately or at the same time.

A docking station for a dust collection box comprising: a housing; a socket formed by the housing configured to receive a dust collection box of a dust extractor; first and second apertures formed through a wall of the housing which aligns with air outlet and inlet apertures of a dust collection box when the dust collection box is mounted within the socket; a connector connectable to a vacuum source; and a dust channel mounted inside of the housing, which provides a passageway between the second aperture and the connector. The docking station may further include an air vent formed through a wall of the housing to allow air surrounding the housing to enter a cavity formed inside of the housing, where the first aperture is connected to the cavity in the housing to allow air in the cavity to exit the housing through the first aperture.

A fuel tank cleaning apparatus configured to remove sludge and prevent sludge accumulation in a fuel tank. A sludge collecting pipe lays horizontally along most of a length of a floor of the fuel tank. A plurality of openings penetrate the sludge collecting pipe along its length. The plurality of openings gradually increase in diameter along the length of the sludge collecting pipe to allow for uniform suction along the entire floor of the tank. A connecting elbow fluidly connects the sludge collecting pipe to a suction pipe. A pump is attachable to the suction pipe to create a suction at the bottom of the tank. The fuel tank cleaning apparatus may be positioned during the construction of the fuel tank, may be retrofitted into existing fuel tanks, or may be integrated into the floor of the fuel tank itself.
