A mixing device for bone cement comprising a plunger for extruding the mixed material, which plunger is also used as a cover. The plunger has spring blades adapted to be latched on a collar of the housing.

Biosolids conversion systems and methods are provided. Wastewater may be received and separated into a separated water component and a dewatered solids component on-site at or near a wastewater source. The separated water components may be treated on-site using an ancillary water treatment process. The dewatered solids may be converted to a biosolid with aid of one or more oxidizers and a blending chamber. The dewatered solids may be converted to a biosolid on-site at or near a wastewater source or may be converted to a biosolid off-site at a central solids processing facility.

The present invention is directed towards a rotary compression mixer for providing the user with a rotary compression mixer wherein the user can directly manipulate the resultant electrical charge imbalances or coherence domains of a liquid. The motor of the rotary compression mixer recirculates liquids and gases within the liquid container, while simultaneously compressing the liquid while moving the gases and liquids centrifugally outward towards the liquid container.

An agitator device for mixing materials, including a containment vessel defining an interior volume, a hollow shaft having an upper end, a lower end, and a central bore along its length, the lower end extending downwardly into the interior volume of the containment vessel, the hollow shaft being rotatable with respect to the containment vessel, and a takeout tube having an upper end and a lower end, wherein the takeout tube is disposed within the central bore of the hollow shaft so that the lower end of the takeout tube is in fluid communication with the interior volume of the containment vessel.

A heating and stirring device is described herein that comprises a base configured to removably attach to one of a beverage container and a beverage container lid, the base containing a power supply, a controller, and a motor, and an agitator having a body and a length with a first end portion configured to be supported by the base, and a second end portion, wherein the first terminal end is configured to be outside of the beverage container and the second end portion is configured to be inside of the beverage container. Corresponding systems and methods also are disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus and, more particularly, to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus, which are capable of adjusting the discharge rate of the cleaning liquid in a noxious gas removal unit, which removes noxious gas remaining in a gaseous state in the cleaning liquid discharged from the exhaust gas treatment apparatus and discharges the cleaning liquid from which the noxious gas in the gaseous state has been removed, on the basis of a result of measurement of the level of the cleaning liquid in the noxious gas removal unit.

Systems for filling and dispensing free-flowing contents into and out of a container, the container comprising: a top and a bottom, a plurality of vertical walls extending between the bottom and the top, an ice portal disposed in the top, the ice portal having a removable cap for filling an ice chamber with ice, a removable container cap, a tube vertically disposed in the container cap, the tube extending between a beverage bag and a gate valve above the container cap, an air hose disposed in the container cap parallel with the tube, an air bag attached to a bottom end of the air hose, the air bag being adjacent to the beverage bag, such that a volume between the bags and an interior of the plurality of vertical walls is the ice chamber, and a beverage flow portal protruding longitudinally from a side of the gate valve.

The present disclosure relates to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus and, more particularly, to a system and a method for removing noxious gas from cleaning liquid discharged from an exhaust gas treatment apparatus, which are capable of adjusting the discharge rate of the cleaning liquid in a noxious gas removal unit, which removes noxious gas remaining in a gaseous state in the cleaning liquid discharged from the exhaust gas treatment apparatus and discharges the cleaning liquid from which the noxious gas in the gaseous state has been removed, on the basis of a result of measurement of the level of the cleaning liquid in the noxious gas removal unit.

A melting kettle for processing of thermoplastic material. The kettle disclosed herein obtains heat transfer by use of an oil jacketed tank with an adjoining main tank for storage of hot oil and a hose tank for recovery of the hot oil. Oil expelled from the oil jacket is directed to the main tank through an opening. Spillage of oil from the hose tank is directed to the main tank through an aperture. The melting kettle reduces the space needed for oil storage, and increases operator safety by eliminating additional transfer lines. Dual kettles benefit by having the adjoining main tank placed therebetween.

Melting kettles for use on vehicles for continuous processing of material for applying lines, stripes, bitumen, crack sealant or the like. The kettles disclosed herein provide heat transfer by use of oil jacketed tanks. A coil may be placed along a lower section for heat transfer through a burner for heating recirculated oil. A coil may be placed in a lower section and an upper section for heating an oil jacket, as well as heat transfer from the entire circumference of a coil placed in the upper section. An upper coil can be fluidly coupled to a lower coil and positioned within the chamber a spaced apart distance from the interior wall of the melter kettle. A mixer system rotates paddles to cause continuous transfer of material around the upper coil. The melter kettle is cylindrical, but can be corrugated to increase heatable surface area.
