An internal air adjustment device that includes a first composition adjustment unit and a second composition adjustment unit. The first composition adjustment unit separates supply air from external air, the supply air having a composition that differs from a composition of the external air, and supplies the supply air into a transport container. The second composition adjustment unit separates discharge air from internal air, the discharge air having a composition that differs from a composition of the internal air, and discharges the discharge air to outside of the transport container. The internal air adjustment device is capable of properly controlling the composition of the internal air in the transport container.

An integrated oxygen supply device that is configured to generate oxygen continuously and release the oxygen non-continuously is provided. In some embodiments, the oxygen generated by the integrated oxygen supply device is stored in a porous material with the integrated oxygen supply device. The delivery of the oxygen produced by integrated oxygen supply device to a patient, in those embodiments, is controlled. In some embodiments, the control of the delivering oxygen is according one or more breathing patterns. The breathing pattern(s) may or may not be a current breathing pattern of the patient. For example, in one embodiment, the breathing pattern is a predetermined breathing pattern with a specified inspiration period followed by a specified expiration period.

Injecting CO2 that is diluted within water, into a coal seam, which allows for the sequestering and control of downhole CO2 within connected fractures without damaging the subterranean formation.

A ventilator includes a bidirectional breath detection airline and a flow outlet airline. The flow outlet airline includes an airline outlet. The flow outlet airline is configured to be connected to an invasive ventilator circuit or a noninvasive ventilator circuit. The breath detection airline includes airline inlet. The airline inlet is separated from the airline outlet of the flow outlet airline. The ventilator further includes a pressure sensor in direct fluid communication with the breath detection airline. The pressure sensor is configured to measure breathing pressure from the user and generate sensor data indicative of breathing by the user. The ventilator further includes a controller in electronic communication with the pressure sensor. The controller is programmed to detect the breathing by the user based on the sensor data received from the pressure sensor.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods useful for power production. In particular, a power production cycle utilizing CO.sub.2 as a working fluid may be configured for simultaneous hydrogen production. Beneficially, substantially all carbon arising from combustion in power production and hydrogen production is captured in the form of carbon dioxide. Further, produced hydrogen (optionally mixed with nitrogen received from an air separation unit) can be input as fuel in a gas turbine combined cycle unit for additional power production therein without any atmospheric CO.sub.2 discharge.
