A device to be installed in a pipeline, characterized by at least one static mixer and at least one pre-mixer arranged in a sleeve, wherein said at least one static mixer is characterized by: a body having a plurality of slots through the body, said slots having one or more sides that are angled with respect to an axis passing through a center of the body; a plurality of arms extending from an outer edge of the body towards a center of the body, wherein the plurality of slots comprising at least one concentric ring of slots.

A continuous chemical process is modified to allow parts thereto to be processed one quantum of matter at a time. This offers precision and efficiency beyond what is possible with the continuous mode. This Quantum Fluid Operation (QFO) is applied to basic unit operations: mixing, reacting, separating.

An emulsion system is provided. The system includes a shaft that supports a plurality of cutting assemblies and plates in alternating order, wherein the cutting assembly rotates with respect to an in close proximity to the plate. The plurality of cutting plates each on their circumferential edge have an identification system to memorialize the diameter of the emulsion holes.

The present disclosure relates to a fine bubble generation unit. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a fine bubble generation unit, which is configured to enlarge the area of friction or collision of a fluid flowing inside a container or cause the fluid, while passing through the inside space of the container, to flow at different velocities in neighboring sections, so as to significantly improve, by a simple configuration, the generation capability and the sterilization power of fine bubbles having the micrometer or nanometer size.

Described are filtration elements for removing materials from a fluid. The filtration elements generally operate by inducing cavitation into a fluid passing through them, generating energy and removing unwanted materials from the fluid. The filtration elements can be used singularly or in combination with one another for a multiple level filtration system.

Systems and methods to obtain a desired rheology of drilling mud are described herein. Embodiments generally include a hollow tubular body coupled to, and including, numerous shearing elements configured to facilitate achievement of such desired rheology.

A flow-through cavitation device having an elongated housing with an inlet and an outlet. An inner annular body and an outer annular body are concentrically and nestingly disposed in the elongated housing. The outer annular body is fixed relative to the housing and the inner annular body is rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the housing. Each annular body has a plurality of channels that pass therethrough. Rotation of the inner body relative to the outer body provides for selective alignment or misalignment of the plurality of channels to control fluid flow from the inlet to the outlet. The device may have a plurality of pairs of inner and outer annular bodies as described.

Devices and methods for preparing a slurry for coating onto a substrate. The devices and methods of the present disclosure relate to providing a slurry in a closed volume with at least one passage. The slurry includes a solvent, a powder, and a binder. The slurry can also include a dispersion agent. The slurry is forced repeatedly under high pressure through the at least one passage in a first flow direction and then back through the at least one passage in a second flow direction, opposite the first flow direction. The forcing homogenously disperses the powder and the binder within the solvent. Both sides of the substrate are then coated simultaneously with the slurry extruded from the closed volume after the forcing. Curing of the coated slurry includes freeze drying to preserve the porosity of the slurry on the substrate.

A method for controlling fluid ratio accuracy during a dual flow injection with a powered injection system is described. The method includes predicting a first capacitance volume of a first syringe comprising a first medical fluid and a second capacitance volume of a second syringe comprising a second medical fluid with a first capacitance correction factor and a second capacitance correction factor, respectively, selecting a ratio of the first medical fluid and the second medical fluid to be administered to a patient in the dual flow injection, determining a relative acceleration ratio of a first piston of the first syringe and a second piston of a second syringe based on the predicted first capacitance volume and the predicted second capacitance volume, wherein the relative acceleration ratio is selected to maintain the selected ratio of the first medical fluid and the second medical fluid during the dual flow injection, and injecting a mixture of a first medical fluid and a second medical fluid having the selected ratio with the powered injection system.

Provided in one implementation is a method that includes introducing a volume of raw material into a chamber of a cavitation machine. The raw material can include a mixture comprising a powder and a solvent. The powder can have a first average particle size in the raw material. The method includes applying a hydrodynamic cavitation process to the raw material to produce a product material. The powder can have a second average particle size, smaller than the first average particle size, in the product material. The method includes causing the product material to exit the cavitation chamber and drying the product material to remove the solvent. Apparatus employed to apply the method are also provided.
