An exemplary compounding system and method can include two pump heads for simultaneously drawing two different fluids from at least two separate input containers such that the at least two different fluids are mixed and distributed to an output container. The system can include a manifold that maintains separation of certain of the different fluids until after passing by a first pump and a second pump and/or additional pumps. A junction can be placed in the fluid line downstream of the first and second pumps and/or additional pumps such that all or some of the fluids are mixed prior to output to the output container. The method of using the system can include incorporating software that selects various fluids at certain times and sequences to ensure optimum efficiency and safety for the system, and can continue compounding actions even when an input supply container runs out or otherwise fails to supply a particular fluid/material. The method of use also includes connection of a transfer set to a housing in a manner that further ensures optimum efficiency and safety.

Systems and methods for recovering dry bulk material from a blender at a job site are provided. The systems include at least one container having in which dry bulk material can be placed and a skid-mounted vacuum unit comprising a tank having an interior space and an outlet for interfacing with the inlet of the container when the vacuum unit is positioned proximate to the container, a vacuum pump in communication with the interior space of the tank, and a conduit coupled to an inlet of the vacuum pump for interfacing with an inlet of a blender.

The invention relates to a container, wherein the container comprises a wall and a valve, wherein the wall defines an interior cavity, wherein the cavity has an adjustable volume, wherein the cavity contains a composition, wherein the composition comprises a nanomaterial, and wherein the volume of the composition is less than or equal to about 50 vol % of the maximum volume of the cavity.

An exemplary foam-at-a-distance soap or sanitizer dispenser includes a housing, a container for holding a foamable liquid, and a pump in fluid communication with the container. The pump has a pump chamber air inlet, a pump chamber air inlet valve, a pump chamber air outlet, a pump chamber air outlet valve, a pump chamber liquid inlet, a liquid chamber liquid inlet valve, a pump chamber liquid outlet, and a pump chamber liquid outlet valve. The exemplary dispenser further includes an air conduit extending from the pump chamber air outlet to a remote mixing chamber and a liquid conduit extending from the pump chamber liquid outlet to the remote mixing chamber. The remote mixing chamber is located at a distance from the pump chamber air outlet valve and the pump chamber liquid outlet valve and that distance is greater than about 3 inches. A one-way liquid check valve is located proximate the mixing chamber, one or more mix media located downstream of the mixing chamber and an outlet nozzle located proximate the mixing chamber.

An exemplary compounding system and device for mixing materials can include a housing, a first material source and a second material source. A first fluid line can be operationally connected to the housing and configured to transport a first volume of fluid per unit time from the first material source to a final container. A second fluid line can be operationally connected to the housing and configured to transport a second volume of fluid per unit time from the second material source to the final container. The device can also include a pump system including, a first pump having a first rotor and a first platen which secures the first fluid line between the first rotor and the first platen, the first pump being configured to move the first volume of fluid through the first fluid line, and a second pump having a second rotor and a second platen which secures the second fluid line between the second rotor and the second platen, the second pump being configured to move the second volume of fluid through the second fluid line. A first platen lock can be provided and can be rotated in a first direction to lock the first platen in a closed position relative to the first rotor, and wherein rotation of the first rotor draws the first material source through the first fluid line. The pump system can also be configured such that the volume of fluid per unit time delivered by the first and second pumps is different, and/or where the first and second pumps have different head characteristics.

A gas infuser includes a mixing chamber and a liquid injector. Gas is supplied into the mixing chamber and liquid flows through openings of the injector to mix with the gas in the mixing chamber and form a gas-infused liquid.

An ozone water generating device includes a housing, an ozone generator for generating ozone, and an ejector having a water inlet, a water outlet, and an air inlet. The ozone generator and the ejector are installed in the housing. An exit of the ozone generator is connected to the air inlet of the ejector. The ozone water generating device can directly output ozone water, and has a compact structure and is small in size.

A method includes obtaining a cartridge having a first fluid within an interior of the cartridge, where the cartridge includes a valve; obtaining a container having a second fluid within an interior of the container; obtaining a pressurizer; installing the cartridge within the pressurizer; installing the pressurizer within a container opening at a top end of the container; and opening the valve in the cartridge, to flow the first fluid within the interior of the cartridge through a first flow path in the valve, and a second flow path in the pressurizer into the second fluid in the container.

A fine bubble generator which is an ultrafine bubble generator includes a side wall whose inner face is cylindrical, and closing walls closing both ends of the side wall, respectively, with a gas-liquid discharge port in one of the closing walls, wherein a fluid inlet port is provided closer to the gas-liquid discharge port than is a midpoint between both closing walls, and the fluid inlet port penetrates the side wall in a tangential direction of the inner face of the side wall, wherein a spiral groove is formed in the inner face of side wall, and wherein the spiral groove has an angle of inclination of 1° to 10°.

A mixer assembly with a static mixing element arranged within a mixing channel. The mixer assembly has an inlet end, for receiving components of a substance and a dispensing end for dispensing a mixture from the components. The inlet end comprises for each component an inlet and an associated non-return valve. Each of the inlets is connectable for fluid communication with the mixing channel via the associated non-return valve.
