METHOD OF LOADING DRY BULK MATERIALS IN A DRY BULK TANK

A dry bulk tank and a method of carrying a load and discharging a load therefrom. The dry bulk tank includes a tank assembly having a first wall that bounds and defines a first compartment for carrying a load therein and a second wall spaced outwardly from at least a portion of the first wall; wherein a second compartment is defined between the first wall and the second wall. The tank assembly includes an air piping system that is selectively actuated to place the first compartment and the second compartment under substantially similar or substantially equal air pressure. In one example the air piping system pumps air into the first compartment and the second compartment. In another example the air piping system evacuates air from the first and second compartments.

Systems and methods for transporting fuel and carbon dioxide in a dual fluid vessel
12000538 · 2024-06-04 · ·

Embodiments of systems and methods for transporting fuel and carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) in a dual-fluid vessel thereby minimizing transportation between locations are disclosed. In an embodiment, the dual-fluid vessel has an outer shell with two or more inner compartments, positioned within the outer shell, including a first inner compartment for storing CO.sub.2 and a second inner compartment for storing fuel. The dual-fluid vessel may connect or attach to a transportation vehicle to thereby allow transportation of the fuel and CO.sub.2. Insulation may provide temperature regulation for the fuel and CO.sub.2 when positioned in the respective first and second inner compartments. One or more ports having an opening in and through the outer shell and a fluid pathway to one or more of the first inner compartment or the second inner compartment may provide fluid communication through the opening and fluid pathway for loading/offloading the fuel and/or CO.sub.2.

SYSTEM AND METHOD OF AIR POLLUTION CONTROL FOR LIQUID VACUUM TRUCKS
20180314272 · 2018-11-01 ·

A system and method of air pollution control for liquid vacuum trucks is disclosed. The system includes a container comprising a cylindrical shell, wherein the cylindrical shell defines an internal volume of the container, and a barrier. The barrier includes a disk slideably disposed within the interior volume of the container, the disk subdividing the interior volume of the container into a first portion and a second portion, and a seal disposed about a circumference of the disk and in sealing contact with an interior surface of the cylindrical shell. The first portion is configured to sustain an internal pressure in a predetermined range; and the second portion is configured to receive a waste material. When the internal pressure is at a maximum value of the predetermined range, the disk has a deflection less than a predetermined deflection at which the sealing contact is compromised.
