Endoscope cleaning and inspection system and method
Embodiments of a system and method for endoscope cleaning and inspection are disclosed. In an example, an endoscope cleaning and inspection unit includes cleaning and testing capabilities operated via control equipment and a display screen, to operate leak testing equipment, flush control equipment, and optical inspection equipment for leak testing, flushing, rinsing, and inspection of an endoscope interior chamber (lumen) and exterior surfaces. In a further example, the endoscope cleaning and inspection unit may further operate and receive information from a borescope imaging device or a magnification imaging device, using an imaging sensor to capture images of an endoscope lumen or surface respectively, as captured or output on the display screen. Further embodiments provide for control, monitoring, data collection, data input, and data output with such imaging devices via the endoscope cleaning and inspection unit.

Systems and methods for capless refueling system cleaning
Methods and systems are provided for capless refueling system of a vehicle. In one example, a method may include cleaning a capless unit of a capless refueling system by generating vacuum in the capless refueling system and delivering compressed air to the capless unit from an electrical booster of an engine. The compressed air may be delivered to the capless unit via a two-way valve configured to control a flow path of the compressed air.
WELLBORE CLEAN-OUT TOOL
A tool for cleaning out the lower end of a cased wellbore having an installed production string. The tool is lowered down the production string until it projects from an end of the production string and into the wellbore. High pressure fluid is then sprayed from the tool’s fluid openings into nearby portions of the wellbore. Once cleaning operations are complete, the tool is carried back to the ground surface using subterranean fluid pressure.

Method for operating a reconditioning apparatus and a medical system
A method for operating a reconditioning apparatus for cleaning and disinfecting a medical instrument(s), the medical instrument having an internal channel(s). The method including: receiving the medical instrument(s) in a reconditioning chamber; connecting the internal channel(s) to a fluid connection of fluid connections in the reconditioning chamber; flushing the internal channel(s) with a reconditioning fluid; detecting an identifying feature of medical instrument(s) indicating a type of the medical instrument(s); comparing the detected type with data sets stored in a database and, of the fluid connections, provide an allocation of a fluid connection connected to the internal channel(s) on a basis of the identified type; and subsequent to the flushing, actuating a compressed air source to apply compressed air to the allocated fluid connection such that reconditioning fluid present in the at least one internal channel is blown out of the channel.
Method and composition for pulse dose cleaning of process streams
Pulse dosing is used to administer a cleaning formulation into a fluid process stream flowing through structural components of a processing facility. The fluid process stream may contain corn, corn-derived products, or a combination thereof, or the fluid process stream may contain a process condensate, a rinse fluid, a cleaning fluid or any combination thereof. The processing facility may be an ethanol processing plant, a protein processing plant, a corn oil processing plant, an ethanol and corn oil processing plant, an ethanol and protein processing plant, or an ethanol, corn oil and protein processing plant. Pulse dosing may include administering the cleaning formulation into the fluid process stream for a period of x seconds every y minutes, with no administration of the cleaning formulation between the periods of x seconds.
