A method for controlling a garbage disposer that includes a crushing unit, a housing that includes an inlet port and an outlet port, a storage body, a communication hole, and an agitation unit is disclosed. The method includes the actions of connecting the communication hole with the inlet port by rotating the storage body. The method further includes opening the communication hole by rotating the agitation unit. The method further includes crushing, by the crushing unit, garbage. The method further includes supplying garbage to the inlet port. The method further includes closing the communication hole by rotating the agitation unit. The method further includes dehydrating garbage stored in the storage body by rotating the agitation unit and the storage body at a first rotation speed while maintaining the communication hole in a closed state.

The subject of the present invention is a method for processing electrical and electronic components in order to recover valuable materials, such as the metals contained in printed circuit boards. According to this method, the electrical and electronic components are pre-shredded mechanically and then mixed with a liquid before they undergo wet milling (5).

The present disclosure provides apparatuses and methods related to a high pressure processing device that is configured to simplify batch processing. In an embodiment, a high pressure processing device includes a processing module configured to reduce a particle size of a material or achieve a desired liquid processing result for the material, a pump configured to pump the material to an inlet of the processing module, a recirculation pathway configured to recirculate the material from an outlet of the processing module back to the pump, an input device configured to receive at least one user input variable, and a controller configured to (i) determine a number of pump strokes for the pump based on the user input variable, and (ii) control the pump according to the determined number of pump strokes so that the material makes a plurality of passes through the processing module.

The present invention provides a waste system including a disposal with multiple inlets that can receive water and waste materials from multiple basins.

A washing apparatus comprises a tank in which rotatable, bladed shafts are located. The tank has a closable lower outlet located at a first end of the tank, and an upper outlet located at the first end of the tank, the upper outlet being higher than the lower outlet. A further outlet is located at a second end or between the first and second ends. The tank is disposed at an inclined angle such that the first end of the tank is lower than the second end of the tank, and is movable between a first inclined state in which the inclined angle is relatively shallow, and a second inclined state in which the inclined angle is relatively steep. The apparatus is able to perform the tasks of either a log washer or coarse material washer depending on the angle of inclination.

The invention relates to the field of kitchen appliances and discloses a food waste disposer, the food waste disposer has a switching component arranged to a discharge outlet of the food waste disposer, the switching component has a first pipe; a second pipe; a first baffle that flips in an anti-gravity direction along a discharge direction to connect or isolate a discharge outlet and a sewer pipe; a first sealing ring; and a limit block to prevent the first baffle from flipping. The invention also discloses an integrated sink and integrated cabinet both have the food waste disposer with a switching component arranged to a discharge outlet of the food waste disposer.

Methods for forming black phosphorus alloys and exfoliating black phosphorus alloys. A method for forming black phosphorus alloys includes providing phosphorus inside a vessel and providing an element inside the vessel. Media is provided inside the vessel and the phosphorus, the element, and the media are sealed under a gas within the vessel. The phosphorus and the element are mechanically milled with the media to produce black phosphorus that is covalently bonded with the element. A method for exfoliating a black phosphorus alloy includes mixing a milled black phosphorus alloy with a solvent and mixing a milled black phosphorus alloy with a solvent. The milled black phosphorus alloy and solvent mixture are then extracted from the milling apparatus, which may be a planetary ball mill, a vibratory mill, a tumbler ball mill, a mixer mill, a rod mill, an attrition mill, or a shaker mill.
