An injection and mixing device comprises a casing having an exhaust inlet and an exhaust outlet, the casing internally defining a passage for exhaust gases from the exhaust inlet to the exhaust outlet. The exhaust inlet opens into an inlet region of the passage. The injection and mixing device further includes an injector of a liquid comprising a nitrogen oxide reducing agent or a precursor of such a reducing agent. A deflector is housed within the casing and defines in the passage a first passage connecting the inlet region to the exhaust outlet, in which the exhaust gases flow at a first average velocity, and a second passage connecting the inlet region to the exhaust outlet, in which the exhaust gases flow at a second average velocity lower than the first average velocity, The injector injects liquid into the second passage.

A mixer and a method therein, including feeding a rotating flow of exhaust gas in a mixing pipe towards a turning end of a mixing chamber; dosing reactant by a doser against the rotating flow around a centreline of the mixing pipe; maintaining a guide around the doser such that a front face of the guide faces the rotating flow, and the guide defines a central opening surrounding the doser; guiding a side flow out of the rotating flow to a carrier flow around the doser via the central opening; and inhibiting by the guide turbulence from being transferred from the side flow to the carrier flow.

An exhaust-gas treatment module for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine has a plurality of elements which follow one another in an exhaust-gas flow direction. The elements include a first mixing path with a first reactant dispensing arrangement in an upstream end region of the first mixing path and with a first mixing channel which is elongate in the direction of a first mixing path longitudinal axis. A first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement follows and is elongate in the direction of a first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement longitudinal axis and has an upstream end region connected to a downstream end region of the first mixing path, a second mixing path with a second reactant dispensing arrangement in an upstream end region which is connected to a downstream end region of the first exhaust-gas treatment arrangement.

The present disclosure concerns a ventilation system to be applied to a micronizer, in such a way that the ventilation does not prevent nebulization, rather it disperses it in an environment that for example is to be sterilized. Thanks to a particular configuration, the ventilation system is also resistant to water present in the environment to be sterilized.

A mixer for a vehicle exhaust system includes an upstream baffle with at least one inlet opening configured to receive engine exhaust gas, a downstream baffle with at least one outlet opening configured to conduct engine exhaust gases to a downstream exhaust component, and an outer peripheral wall surrounding the upstream and downstream baffles and defining a mixer central axis. An intermediate plate is positioned between the upstream and downstream baffles to block direct flow from the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The intermediate plate initiates a rotational flow path that directs exhaust gases exiting the inlet opening through a rotation of more than 360 degrees about the mixer central axis before exiting the outlet opening.

A water dispersing system (WDS) that allows a selectable quantity of water to be dispersed into an environment. The WDS utilizes a fan and a water supply assembly. The fan has a frame inside of which are two rotating blades, and preferably a stand. The water supply assembly includes a reservoir, a water tube, and a water dispersing head. Water is gravity fed from the reservoir, through the water tube and out of the head. Water from the head is directed into the first fan's rotating blades. Once the water hits the blades, the water is re-directed back out through a front grill on the fan. The second fan blades project air outward. The amount of water that comes from the WDS can be selectably chosen, from a light mist to a heavier spray, and the temperature of the water can be lowered by placing ice into the reservoir with the water. An excess water basin catches any water that drips downward from the blades.

A system for integrated pest management in an environment includes devices positioned within the environment. The devices each include a communications facility that enables transmitting signals to and receiving signals from a network device. The system further includes a network to provide communication between the network device to the devices. The network device receives communication and control functions from a remote computer for distribution to the devices. The system further includes a sensor positioned within the environment to transmit sensor data to the remote computer. The sensor is configured to detect and transmit a parameter for the environment to the remote computer. The system further includes a controller to control the emission of a fluid from a source of the fluid in fluid communication with the devices. The controller is configured to set or adjust an operation parameter of the devices in response to the sensor data.

A humidification device (1) is shown wherein water is nebulized by a vibrating mesh with very small holes. The mesh is part of a reservoir which is fed by a valve arrangement which allows to direct water from a conduit over several water lines within the device either back to the conduit or into the reservoir. The device and a system with such devices allow to humidify and/or cool compartments such as rooms with a very fine mist of water which is hardly visually detectable. The system and device is adapted to be part of a permanent installation with low maintenance.

An insert of a cartridge for use with a liquid diffusing device is provided. The insert includes a body, an inlet provided in the body to receive diffused liquid generated within the cartridge during operation of the liquid diffusing device, an outlet zone defined at least in part by the body through which to discharge the diffused liquid toward an external environment, and a tortuous passage extending between the inlet and the outlet zone to aid in further reducing an average particle size of the diffused liquid as the diffused liquid moves through the tortuous passage. Removable cartridges for use with a diffusion device are also provided which include such an insert.

BUILDING FEATURE APPLIED IN AIR-CONDITIONING APPLIANCE, capable of enriching the air with atomized water droplets in two stages, where in a first moment the water sent directly from the water supply network is pre-atomized in an appliance (8); being then delivered to the main atomizer (9), which produces the final atomization, creating an ultrafine mist that facilitates the thermal exchange between the mist and the air. The air-conditioning appliance must be associated to a fan so as to spread this mist to the room.
