A delivery system of a colored product having a target color including an application device of the colored product, at least two reservoirs each containing a respective base product, a calculation module configured to receive the information concerning the target color and to determine a composition of the colored product from the base products contained in the reservoirs, at least one metering device in fluid communication with the reservoirs, configured to deposit on the application device a dose of each of the base products corresponding to the determined composition, a mixing device configured to mix the doses of base products deposited on the application device. Also, a method for delivering a colored product having a target color via the delivery system. Finally, the use of the system for applications requiring the delivery of a colored product having a target color.

A method for preventing formation of a slug flow regime of a gas-liquid mixture in a non-linear wellbore or a pipeline comprises determining at least one most probable place of fluid slugs development in the wellbore or the pipeline by mathematical simulation based on expected values of the gas-liquid mixture flow and known geometry of the wellbore or the pipeline and mounting a device, in the determined place of fluid slug development, that converts the stratified gas-liquid mixture flow into a dispersed flow.

Delivery systems for in situ forming foam formulations are provided. The devices may include various actuation mechanisms and may entrain air into fluid formulation components in a variety of ways, including mixing with air and the addition of compressed gas.

A method and apparatus for aerating wine or spirits to reduce the astringency, or bitterness of wine or spirits. Astringency is often a result of tannins in wine or spirits, particularly noticeable in full bodied red wines. Aeration causes oxygen to dissolve in wine or spirits where it will oxidize tannin compounds, thereby reducing the astringent flavor. The method employs an apparatus wherein a hand held unit having a battery, switch or button, electrical wiring and electric motor cause rotation of a drive-shaft and aeration head. The aeration head is immersed in wine or spirits, the switch activated causing rotation of the aeration head creating a plurality of fine air bubbles resulting in large wine or spirit to air surface area simultaneous with stirring to ensure uniform oxygenation and aeration of wine or spirits throughout the container. The process may be extended until the desired reduction in astringency is achieved.

The present disclosure relates to a container for the production of a foamed sclerosant composition, to kits and systems including such a container, to methods for preparing a foamed sclerosant composition using such containers, and to a foamed sclerosant compositions obtainable by such methods. In an aspect, the container comprises a container body and a mixing element disposed in the container body, such that a foaming space is defined in an interior of the container body between the sidewalls and the mixing element. The mixing element may be configured to be operatively coupled with a rotating actuator without the actuator reaching the foaming space.

Delivery systems for in situ forming foam formulations are provided. The devices may include various actuation mechanisms and may entrain air into fluid formulation components in a variety of ways, including mixing with air and the addition of compressed gas.

Provided is a mixing apparatus. The mixing apparatus comprises a housing defining a primary chamber, an inlet for receiving material into the mixing apparatus, as well as an outlet for discharging material from the mixing apparatus. The housing provides within the primary chamber a plurality of rotating shafts, each rotating shaft having a plurality of flailing fixtures associated therewith.

A milk frother comprises a housing, a motor, a power supply, two rods, and two aerating members. The motor is located within the housing, with the motor comprising a rotatable shaft. The power supply is located within the housing, with the power supply configured to supply electrical power to the motor to effect rotation of the shaft. The two rods extend through the housing, with each of the rods comprising first and second ends. Each of the rods are operably coupled to the shaft proximate to the first ends, and rotation of the shaft effects rotation of the rods. Each of the aerating members is connected to one of the two rods proximate to the second ends. Rotation of the rods effects rotation of the aerating members to produce froth when the aerating members are placed within the milk.
