A liner L has a liner body 11 with a front wall 12, rear wall 16, bottom wall 13, a top wall 14. The top wall also includes a tubular excess liner material or chute 19 located close to the rear wall and which includes a filling fitment 20 with a fitment cap 21. The liner also has a cylindrical, hose content inlet/outlet port or bottom fitment 23. The liner may include a gap-filler or filler strip 70 of foam material extending outwardly from a position closely adjacent the outlet fitment. The filler strip is mounted to the front wall directly over and closely adjacent the outlet fitment. The filler strip may taper so that at least a majority of the strip's longitudinal length or height so as to increase in its lateral width as it approaches the outlet fitment, thereby increasing the material volume of strip material.

The present invention is directed to new and improved industrial containment bags wherein the improvement comprises providing methods and technologies for improving the integrity of such bags during processes designed for lifting, transporting storing and/or disposing of the same. In certain embodiments, the improvement includes providing methods and technologies for improving the sealing capabilities of the bag's closure systems. In other embodiments, the improvement includes providing methods and technologies for assessing the load balance of materials being contained in such industrial containment bags; and thereafter, compensating for any significant load imbalances. The present invention is also directed to methods of manufacturing, using, filling, lifting, transporting, storing, and/or disposing of such new and improved industrial containment bags.

An apparatus for reducing a probability of damage to a vehicle from rising water includes a first sheet of a water-resistant material and a second sheet of the water-resistant material. A first side of a connector (e.g., zipper) is interfaced to a first periphery of the first sheet of the water-resistant material and a second side of the connector is interfaced to a second periphery of the second sheet of the water-resistant material. After a vehicle is placed upon the first sheet of the water-resistant material, the second sheet of the water-resistant material is draped over the vehicle and the first side connector is engaged with the second side connector, thereby encapsulating the vehicle within the first sheet and second sheet of the water-resistant material

An expandable and configurable enclosure that is configured to be envelop at least one object to provide protection thereof wherein said portable enclosure is configured to be assembled into a plurality of alternate shapes and sizes. The portable enclosure of the present invention includes a body wherein the body includes a plurality of panels. The panels of the body are manufactured from a durable flexible material such as but not limited to nylon. The panels include perimeter seams wherein each of the perimeter seams is configured with a fastener. The fasteners are configured to facilitate the operable coupling of a plurality of panels to form a body having an interior volume suitable to accommodate therein a desired object or plurality of objects. The assembled body of the present invention includes at least one end cap member operable to provide access to the interior volume of the body.

A non-self supporting containment bag used in conjunction with a dumpster container. The bag has a center opening that extends across the top of the bag, substantially centered on the top of the bag. The top of the bags is formed with sufficient spare material at the ends of the rectangular shaped bag to allow the top to be inverted over the sides of the container. The opening when closed, has sufficient material to form opposing triangular folds that extends above the top of the bag and the top of the container, when the bag is lining the container.

Methods, systems and/or apparatus related to the manufacture and use of biodigesters are disclosed. Moreover, techniques for the manufacture of reactors whose final shape increases the lifespan of the biodigester, as well as modular techniques for the manufacture of the reactors, are included.

A portable storage bin includes a base frame on the ground and a bin support frame operable relative to the base frame between a working position and a transport position which is reduced in height relative to the working position, and a storage envelope supported on the bin support frame to define a storage chamber for storing particulate material therein in the working position of the bin support frame in which the storage envelope is collapsible with the bin support frame from the working position to the transport position. The bin support frame has an upper frame portion from which the storage envelope is suspended in the working position and a central support post which is extendable in height between the upper frame portion and the base frame for raising the envelope from the transport position to the working position.

A collapsible bulk material container and sleeve configuration thereof are disclosed. The container includes a forming member assembly that provides container rigidity and stability and forms an internal geometric volumetric cavity for containing a bulk material load. A continuously woven sleeve having contiguous woven zones of selectable varied fabric weight and strength engage the forming member and provide the primary containment strength of the container. The sleeve engages the forming member either externally or internally. The sleeve includes a fabric weight zone of greatest strength adjacent the lower portion of the container.
