Embodiments are directed to systems and methods for reducing the infrared signature of a vehicle, specifically to the use of mixed flow or centrifugal blowers to reduce the amount of infrared radiation being emitted from the engine exhaust. A blower and mixer are used to cool the exhaust gas from an aircraft engine. The blower and mixer use a tertiary exhaust duct to swirl cool air from an engine particle separator (EPS) and/or oil cooler, for example, with the hot engine exhaust gas. Existing blowers in the EPS or oil cooler may be used to motivate air flow so that a unique or dedicated blower is not required. In addition to reducing exposure to hostile forces, other benefits of cooling the exhaust gas include greatly reduced ground-impingement temperatures and safer personnel working zones because the hot plume is mostly eliminated.

A polymer handling method for a polycrystalline silicon manufacturing device, wherein the polymer byproducts are treated in a manner that the silicon polymers are hydrolyzed.

Furthermore the polymer handling method includes inactivation of the polymer, removal of the polymer of the system and disposal of the polymer after removal.
