A system and method to capture water energy from fluid flow is provided.

A mixing device is configured for the continuous provision of a gelling mass for a molding machine. The mixing device includes an inlet, an outlet and a conduit section which is situated between the inlet and the outlet and into which at least one admixing conduit runs out, via which admixing conduit a substance to be admixed can be fed such that the substance to be admixed is mixed with a base mass which is fed through the inlet, in a mixing region in the conduit section. The mixing device is configured in a manner such that the spatial distance between the outlet and the mixing region in which the substance to be admixed is mixed with the base mass, can be changed. A molding machine with such a mixing device and to a method for processing a flowable and gellable mass are provided.

An apparatus, system and method to reduce the contaminate concentration of effluent before discharge is provided utilizing discharge pipes, inlets and outlets. The apparatus comprises a central bore having an internal diameter suitable for a fluid flow, the fluid flow moves inside the central bore through the apparatus, and at least one outlet, the fluid flow exits the apparatus through the at least one outlet, a plurality of inlets for flowing additional fluid to the central bore, and the inlets mix the fluid flow with the additional fluid from the plurality of inlets. The apparatus can further mix the effluent though additional mixing devices and additional devices can be used to recapture energy such as, hydroelectric power from the fluid flow. A method reduces the effluent concentration by mixing for example, by creating a helical flow in the central bore.

Storage and mixing systems and methods for pasty multicomponent polymethylmethacrylate bone cements, the systems and methods comprise a first tubular cartridge with a first cylindrical internal space containing a first starting component, a first dispensing plunger, a second tubular cartridge that is arranged within the first tubular cartridge. The external wall of the second cartridge touches against the internal wall of the first cartridge and is attached to the internal wall of the first cartridge, whereby the second cartridge contains a second starting component and has a second dispensing plunger arranged in it, whereby a pressing device with a clamping edge for compressing the second cartridge that can be propelled axially in the internal space of the first cartridge is arranged, as seen from the cartridge head, behind the first dispensing plunger and the second dispensing plunger. The pressing device can be propelled appropriately in the direction of the cartridge head such that the second cartridge is being progressively compressed axially during the motion of the pressing device such that, in the process, the first dispensing plunger and the second dispensing plunger are propelled in the direction of the cartridge head.

A mixing device includes a main body, a plurality of first material inlet portions and a second material inlet portion. The main body includes a blending chamber and a discharging portion which is in fluid communication with the blending chamber. The first material inlet portions are connected to the main body. The second material inlet portion is connected to the main body and spaced apart from one another. The first material inlet portions and the second material inlet portion are in fluid communication with the blending chamber, and a first inlet direction of at least one of the first material inlet portions are different from a second inlet direction of the second material inlet portion.

According to an aspect of this disclosure, there is provided a fluid processing apparatus including: a housing with a space formed therein; a fluid receiving part removably coupled to the housing and receiving a fluid therein; and a conveying part accommodated in the space of the housing and coupled to the fluid receiving part to be in fluid communication therewith, wherein the conveying part includes: a pump member coupled to the fluid receiving part and providing a conveying force to the fluid; and a mixing nozzle which is in communication with the pump member, and into which the fluid flows after having passed through the pump member.

An apparatus, system and method to reduce the contaminate concentration of effluent before discharge is provided utilizing discharge pipes, inlets and outlets. The apparatus comprises a central bore having an internal diameter suitable for a fluid flow, wherein the fluid flow moves inside the central bore through the apparatus, and at least one outlet, wherein the fluid flow exits the apparatus through the at least one outlet, a plurality of inlets for flowing additional fluid to the central bore, and wherein the inlets mix the fluid flow with the additional fluid from the plurality of inlets. The apparatus can further mix the effluent though additional mixing devices and additional devices can be used to recapture energy such as, hydroelectric power from the fluid flow. A method reduces the effluent concentration by mixing for example, by creating a helical flow in the central bore. The system using a control panel to achieve favorable mixing or fluid flow by controlling the fluid flow properties of the inlets.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a portable packaging apparatus that isolates and mixes one or more ingredients on demand to prepare hot and cold beverages. The packaging apparatus comprises a first compartment to store the one or more ingredients and receive one or more ingredients from a second compartment for preparing a cocktail, mocktail, or beverage on demand.
