A system for treating infectious waste is provided that employs a medical waste handling and shredding sub-system that feeds partially processed waste to an oxidizer to eliminate potential airborne infectious waste prior to transforming the medical waste into useful co-products. Medical waste is transformed into value added products including hydrocarbon based gases, hydrocarbon-based liquids, carbonized material, and recovered precious metals and rare earth materials in a system having as its transformative element an anerobic, negative pressure, or carbonization system. With medical waste as a feedstock for the production of valuable products, an economically viable and environmentally more responsible alternative to traditional methods of medical waste treatment is realized.

A food waste disposer system (300) has active noise control of food waste disposer noise that is generated by the food waste disposer (302) when a motor of the food waste disposer (302) is running. The food waste disposer (302) has a food conveying section that conveys food waste to a grinding section. The grinding section has a rotatable shredder plate that is rotated by a motor of a motor section. Active noise sound waves (310) are radiated into an area (313) where the food waste disposer noise is to be controlled at an amplitude and frequency to at least cancel or mask the food waste disposer noise.

The present invention concerns a solids discharge module (1) for discharging solids out of devices (100) carrying mixed fluid, in particular comminuting devices for solids contents in a mixed fluid, comprising a solids inlet (3), coupling means (31) for connecting the solids inlet (3) to a device (100) carrying a mixed fluid, a solids outlet (5), a closing member (9) which is arranged at the solids outlet (5) and is reciprocable between a release position and a blocking position, and a conveyor chamber (7) extending from the solids inlet (3) to the solids outlet (5). According to the invention it is proposed that a filling state detector (13) is provided which is adapted to detect and display a solids accumulation in the conveyor chamber (7).

A machine for shredding inorganic waste is described, comprising: first loading means; a shredding chamber; second shredding means; third unloading means; fourth electronic control means; fifth means for limiting the resisting torque applied to the motor, in such a way as to avoid current absorption that exceeds the capacity of the power supply network, said fifth means comprising one or more mobile elementsand a plurality of blades. A method for operating the machine is also described.

Method and apparatus for transforming organic and inorganic solid urban waste into aggregates, comprising an extruding machine connected to a reactor. The extruding machine is formed by an extrusion cylinder through which a piston circulates inside an extrusion cavity, which comprises three sections and is fed with a parget obtained after pre-processing the waste. The end of the third section is connected to the reactor through an opening. The reactors longitudinal shaft is formed by a rotatory steel shaft in which some steel blades are arranged, whose ends play the roles of cutting, hammering, punching and hydraulic helix as they rotate. Between the end of the blades and the wall of the reactor, there is a clearance of more than 0.1 mm of thickness. The reactor has a discharge valve to discharge the parget present in the boundary area through some openings, once it has been processed by a series of pressure, vibration energy and decompression cycles.

Embassy's under siege have an immediate need to destroy electronic devices. An electronic shredder is provided. A hand crank as backup. This invention relates to a portable electronic shredder. Further, shredder relates to the shredding of electronic devices to a very small size so as to make the shredded remnants untraceable, wherein the mobiles and laptops, CPUs and monitors can be placed for disposing of, following which the electronic devices are exposed to a pulverizer. The pulverizer crushes and cuts the electronic devices to minute remnants. The portable shredder is lightweight, compact and portable, thus making it easy to transport to an e-waste stacked place.

A recycling appliance is for processing non-organic recyclable materials and organic materials. The recycling appliance includes a non-organic processing assembly configured to receive, process and store the non-organic recyclable materials. An organic processing assembly is spaced apart from the non-organic processing assembly. The organic processing assembly is configured to receive, process and store the organic materials. A housing assembly is configured to house the non-organic processing assembly and the organic processing assembly.

The disclosure extends to apparatuses, methods, and systems, for producing frozen confections and conditioning ice for use in frozen confections. The disclosure further extends to apparatuses, methods, and systems for providing a frozen confection machine that is portable and sized for easy storage as well as a portable frozen convection experience.

A feeding arrangement for feeding lignocellulosic biomass material such as annual plant material towards a hydrolysis process includes at least one transportation device for transporting the biomass material towards the treatment process; and at least one tearing roll arranged at a predetermined distance from the at least one transportation device and being provided with tearing protrusion. The at least one tearing roll is arranged with a predetermined distance to the at least one transportation device to tear off parts of the transported material to provide a substantially continuous flow of material.
