A vacuum mixing system for the mixing of polymethylmethacrylate bone cement, comprising at least one cartridge (4) having an evacuable internal space for mixing of the bone cement, a pump (18) for generating a negative pressure, and a connecting conduit (12) connecting the internal space of the at least one cartridge (4) to the pump (18) for generating a negative pressure, an integrated energy reservoir (28) for driving the pump (18) that is or can be connected to the pump (18) and has energy for at least one pumping process of the pump (18) stored in it, whereby a negative pressure can be generated by means of the pump (18) during the pumping process, which negative pressure can be used to evacuate gas from the internal space of the at least one cartridge (4) through the connecting conduit (12).

Systems and methods for providing and using a bone cement mixer are described. While the systems can include any suitable component, in some cases, they include a container that is configured to hold an amount of bone cement, a drive shaft coupled to the container, a mixing arm that is coupled to the container and configured to mix the bone cement when the bone cement is disposed within the container, and a vacuum pump configured to draw gas from within the container to form at least a partial vacuum within the container. In some cases, the drive shaft is mechanically coupled to the mixing arm and the vacuum pump such that rotation of the drive shaft forces the mixing arm to move and the vacuum pump to be actuated. Other implementations are also described.

A mixing and delivery device for flowable, homogenous material compositions and methods of use are provided. A kit for use by a medical professional is also provided.

The present invention provides a method and system for providing on-site electrical power to a fracturing operation, and an electrically powered fracturing system. Natural gas can be used to drive a turbine generator in the production of electrical power. A scalable, electrically powered fracturing fleet is provided to pump fluids for the fracturing operation, obviating the need for a constant supply of diesel fuel to the site and reducing the site footprint and infrastructure required for the fracturing operation, when compared with conventional systems. The treatment fluid can comprise a water-based fracturing fluid or a waterless liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) fracturing fluid.

The present disclosure provides a fracturing fluid mixing equipment including a clear water supply system, at least two mixing systems, at least one powder tank, at least two powder conveying systems, a mixing tank, a feeding system and a power system. The clear water supply system has two parallel water supply paths which are connected to the mixing system and the mixing tank respectively. The powder conveying system is connected to the powder tank. There are same number of powder conveying systems and mixing systems which are connected in one-to-one correspondence. The mixing system is connected into the mixing tank. The feeding system adds powder by pneumatic conveying. The power system provides driving force by pure electric power and/or electro-hydraulic power. According to present disclosure, the power system can reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. The feeding system can be compatible with various adding conditions of powders in different packaging, which can reduce the possibility of dust pollution, thereby reducing labor costs and occupational injuries and being more efficient and environmentally friendly.
