Ammonia control in a recirculating aquaculture system

Selected freshwater or saltwater aquaculture systems are processed for the automatic removal of waste, ammonia, and pathogens while controlling temperature, oxygen, and feed amounts for obtaining maximum growth and survival at maximum aquatic species densities. A core platform treatment technology removes ammonia by combining chlorine with the ammonia to form chloramines, which are removed by catalytic activated carbon at a downstream filter station. Processing also removes potential pathogens by sterilizing and electrifying the water. The technology utilizes ammonia, chlorine, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and flow sensors to electronically adjust the amount of chlorine needed to remove the existing ammonia. A control system utilizes temperature, dissolved oxygen, and image processing sensors to optimize heating, cooling, feeding, and aeration.

Method for NR Radio Link Monitoring (RLM) and Evaluation Period Determination
20210258098 · 2021-08-19 ·

Methods are proposed to define UE behavior for performing synchronization signal block (SSB) based radio link monitoring (RLM) and channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) based RLM. In a first novel aspect, if CSI-RS based RLM-RS is not QCLed to any CORESET, then UE determines that CSI-RS RLM configuration is error and does not perform RLM accordingly. In a second novel aspect, SSB for RLM and RLM CSI-RS resources are configured with different numerologies. UE perform SSB based RLM and CSI-RS based RLM based on whether the SSB and CSI-RS resources are TDMed configured by the network. In a third novel aspect, when multiple SMTC configurations are configured to UE, UE determines an SMTC period and whether SMTC and RLM-RS are overlapped for the purpose of RLM evaluation period determination.

Solar Automatic Air Pump
20210244006 · 2021-08-12 ·

The use of small solar cells for automatic aeration of systems is currently unavailable due to the tow efficiency of solar cells. With my invention, this would become possible. With this innovative design and setup, a very cost-effective automatic solar air pump can be used in different applications and systems. The solar air pump can work even on cloudy days and would have stored energy to work at night.

Solar Cells and Panels have power absorption limitations and are less efficient if the Solar Panel is not tilted in right way to the Sun to absorb the maximum amount of Solar Energy. They are also limited and inefficient during cloudy and rainy days. Dust and shading also reduces the energy and power absorption of Solar Panels.

In a small-scale application, for example with a Solar Panel with an area of 5.5 inches×4.5 inches, it is normally very difficult for the Solar Panel to power gadgets and appliances.

I decided to first focus on the Air Pump system for aquariums, aquaponic systems, hydroponic systems, bore holes and Irrigation.
