Apparatuses, methods and computer program products for a temperature regulated container disclosed herein. An example temperature regulated apparatus comprises a base container. The base container includes at least a base portion, one or more sidewall portions, and a lid portion. The temperature regulated apparatus also includes one or more thermoelectric components, wherein (i) each of the one or more thermoelectric components are configured to be disposed within the interior of the base container, (ii) each thermoelectric component comprises an exterior surface, an interior surface, and a composite semiconductor layer disposed between the exterior surface and interior surface, and (iii) each thermoelectric component is configured to, in an instance current flows through the thermoelectric component, transfer heat between the interior surface and exterior surface.

Embodiments pertain to a method and apparatus for protecting temperature sensitive products during air, ground, or sea transportation. Embodiments relate to a chamber built inside a trailer or sea container where temperature sensitive products are placed to have additional protection against the environmental conditions encountered during the transportation and distribution periods. The dimensions and modularity of the chamber can vary depending on the trailer or sea container the chamber is designed to be used with. This chamber can be preassembled and inserted into the desired trailer or sea container or can be assembled inside the trailer or sea container. The chamber system can include insulated and or non-insulated walls, conveyor system, ventilation system, temperature and asset (trailer or sea container) location tracking.

A portable asphalt heater and method for heating asphalt includes an asphalt hopper having a floor, first and second side walls and front and rear end walls. The side walls taper inwardly to define a substantially inverted-V geometry of the hopper. A heating manifold including a heating chamber is adjacent to and positioned beneath the floor, the heating manifold adapted to be in fluid communication with a heater assembly and to direct a heated gas emitted from the heater assembly through the heating chamber and heating manifold. A plurality of chimneys is in fluid communication with, and extends from, the heating chamber and along the first and second side walls, wherein the volume of asphalt, when in the asphalt hopper, is heated through contact with the asphalt hopper.

The present invention discloses a container equipment for enclosed transportation and heterotopic and aerobic stabilization of reserved garbage, which includes a container body and a functional lining provided on an inner wall of the container body, wherein the functional lining is provided with a circulating air low-temperature evaporation system, a water distribution and drainage system and a heating and insulating system; the circulating air low-temperature evaporation system includes an air inlet manifold, an air distribution perforated pipe, a base plate water discharge and air distribution groove and a top plate water distribution and air guide groove, an air extraction perforated pipe, a fan, an air outlet pipe and a quicklime dehydration and deodorization system; the water distribution and drainage system includes a percolate feeding pipe, a fiber capillary water distribution pipe, the top plate water distribution and air guide groove, a side drain, a main drain and a percolate discharge pipe; the heating and insulating system includes a base plate hydrothermal manifold, a bottom hydrothermal coil, a peripheral hydrothermal layer, a bottom air insulating layer and a peripheral air insulating layer. The present invention also discloses a method for using the container equipment described above. The present invention achieves a fully-enclosed transportation of solid waste and a heterotopic and aerobic stabilization process.

A storage vessel assembly for storing chemical includes a storage vessel, a frame for housing the storage vessel, an agitation device disposed in the storage vessel, a temperature control system coupled to the storage vessel, and a controller configured to operate the agitation device and the temperature control system.

A modular subsea fluid storage unit comprises a variable-volume inner tank having a rigid top panel and a peripheral wall that is flexible by virtue of concertina formations. The peripheral wall is extensible and retractable vertically while the horizontal width of the tank remains substantially unchanged. A side wall of a lower housing part surrounds and is spaced horizontally from the peripheral wall of the inner tank to define a floodable gap between the peripheral wall and the side wall that surrounds the tank. An upper housing part extends over and is vertically spaced from the top panel of the inner tank and overlaps the side wall to enclose the inner tank. The floodable gap and the upper housing part enhance thermal insulation and trap any fluids that may leak from the inner tank.

A heated portable vacuum slurry box for efficiently storing and transporting material including drill cuttings from gas and oil well sites. The slurry box generally includes a vacuum tank, a structure attached to the tank, a mechanical bay, a vertical tailgate, and a hook for pulling the slurry box onto a vehicle. The features allow for the slurry box to be meet space restriction requirements at a well site while as well as function within the environmental conditions of winter and summer seasons. Jacketed openings, stack mount systems, and a removable power unit allow for efficient use of the slurry box.

This disclosure is directed toward a heated tailgate for use in cold climates. The heated tailgate may be used with a self-contained heated portable vacuum slurry box. The slurry box generally includes a vacuum tank, a structure attached to the tank, a vertical tailgate, and a hook for pulling the slurry box onto a vehicle. The heated tailgate provides that the slurry cuttings within the slurry box which are adjacent to the tailgate do not freeze and provides for a way in which the tailgate may seal to the vacuum box.

A method for handling bulk products may include placing harvested product into a container and facilitating shipment of the container with the harvested product to an end user of the harvested product without further handling of the harvested product. A container for receiving, drying, shipping, and tracking the products may also be provided.

A system for protecting temperature sensitive products. The system comprises a cover that fits over a product. The cover has a first component, a second component, and a closure system. The first component covers the top of the product and at least a portion of a first side of the product, and the second component covers at least a portion of the other sides of the product. The closure system closes openings between the first component and the second component and tightens the cover around the product. The cover is removable from the product by releasing the closure system and pulling the second component of the cover in a horizontal or downward direction away from the first side of the product.
