Provided are systems, methods, and apparatuses directed to a container for storing a liquid, the container including a textured surface configured to increase the liquid's dissolved oxygen content, the textured surface having fluid-obstructions configured to disrupt a flow of the liquid in at least one direction, said disruptions being effective to decrease a surface tension associated with the liquid and increasing a surface area associated with the liquid.

An embalming machine for mixing of fluids and cleaning of a reservoir may include a reservoir. The embalming machine may include a tube extending from a lower portion to an upper portion of the reservoir, the tube providing a pathway for fluid to travel to the reservoir. The embalming machine may include a port connected to an end of the tube adjacent to the upper portion of the reservoir, the port being configured to dispense the fluid traveling through the tube and into an interior of the reservoir.

A blending machine, for homogenizing materials deposited within an intermediate bulk container (IBC), includes: a frame; a drive motor; a clamp disk rotatably supported by the frame and coupled to the drive motor to drive disk rotation; first and second jaw clamps movably mounted to the frame; and a drive mechanism to drive the jaw clamps to translate toward each other and rotatably secure the IBC's boom to the rotatable clamp disk. A clutch, a torque limiter, and a limit switch limit the pressure applied by the clamps, and the extent of their travel to optimize clamping and rotatability. The blending machine is moveably mounted to a pedestal, and elevated by an actuator. A blending bar within the IBC is coupled through the boom to the clamp disk, and driven to rotate to blend the materials, in addition to mixing by rotation of the ICB.

A vehicle exhaust system includes a mixer having an inlet that receives engine exhaust gases and an outlet to direct swirling engine exhaust gas to a downstream exhaust component. The mixer has a plurality of internal surfaces that come into contact with the engine exhaust gases. At least one of the internal surfaces has a coating comprised of a low-coefficient of friction material.

A mixer for a continuous flow reactor and methods for forming the mixer and the operation thereof. The mixer allows for segmentation of a primary reactant flow through a plurality of ports into many smaller flows that are injected as jets into a secondary reactant flow in channels of the mixer. The channel has a constant width dimension to enhance even flow distribution and local turbulence of the primary and secondary reactant flows. The constant width dimension of the channel and the size and number of the ports of the mixer can be configured to ensure the primary reactant flow injected into the channel directly impinges on a surface of the channel that is opposite the injection point at normal operating conditions.

Systems and method for producing a small-scale mixer are provided. In some implementations, a method for includes obtaining dimensions of an at-scale mixer. The method also includes determining first dimensions of the small-scale mixer based on respective dimensions of the at-scale mixer. The method further includes determining second dimensions of the small-scale mixer independent of the dimensions of the at-scale mixer. Additionally, the method includes generating the small-scale mixer using the first dimensions and the second dimensions using a three-dimensional printer.
