Fenton reactor with gaseous agitation
A Fenton apparatus of the present disclosure includes a reactor vessel, gas injection inlets that allow ejection of aeration coolant perpendicular to axis of the reactor vessel to agitate a reaction composition present in the reactor vessel under vortex conditions, a jacket cooling loop encasing the reactor vessel to allow circulation of a jacket coolant selected from a group consisting of forced air, nitrogen gas, and water, a coil cooling loop coiling around the reactor vessel to allow circulation of a coil coolant selected from a group consisting of forced air, nitrogen gas, water, and carbon dioxide. Multiple programmable solenoid valves are provided to individually control injection of the aeration coolant, the jacket coolant, and the coil coolant. A controller is provided to communicate with a temperature sensor and each programmable solenoid valve.
Apparatus and method for infusing and dispensing oils, and drying and heating infusing materials
The present invention pertains in general to an apparatus and method for the drying and activating of infusing material, and the infusing, agitation and dispensation of oils in a controlled manner to produce a desired potency of an infusion while remaining below an identified maximum temperature threshold.
Frictional temperature regulation of a fluid
A production method can include flowing a heterogeneous fluid mixture into contact with a homogenizing cutting tool, measuring a fluid mixture temperature so as to obtain a measured fluid mixture temperature, and determining a target fluid mixture temperature. The fluid mixture can be frictionally heated so as to obtain a heated and homogenized fluid mixture by driving the cutting tool at a rate based on (i) the target fluid mixture temperature and (ii) the measured fluid mixture temperature. The heated and homogenized fluid mixture can be flowed away from the cutting tool.
Cannabis preparation mixer
A cannabis preparation mixer includes a processor, electrically coupled with each of a weighing system, a heating system, a mixing system, and a user interface within a main housing. The processor receives input from the weighing system and the user interface and transmits instructions to the heating system and the mixing system to heat and mix a mixture according to a predetermined pattern selected based upon a weight of herbs sensed at the weighing system. A heating system includes a heat plate that sits on top of a heating element which sits on top of the insulation pad. A mixing system includes a magnetic motor with a magnetic stirrer and wireless temperature probe that rotates above the magnetic motor, the magnetic stirrer having a wireless temperature probe therein. The user interface receives input from a user to identify user preferences and settings.
CAFFEINE REDUCTION APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING COFFEE GROUNDS POWDER USING SAME
A method of manufacturing a coffee grounds powder includes: an inputting process in which coffee grounds are input into a mixing portion of a caffeine reduction apparatus; a water inputting process in which an inlet and outlet pipe is opened and water is filled inside the main housing such that the coffee grounds input into the mixing portion are submerged; an ultraviolet ray emitting process in which ultraviolet rays are emitted to the water and an inside of the mixing portion; an elution water discharging process in which an elution water in which caffeine is decomposed is discharged to an outside from the main housing; a drying process in which the coffee grounds that remain in the mixing portion are dried by rotating the mixing portion; and a mixing process in which the coffee grounds in which drying is finished are mixed with a viscous additive.

AGITATOR FOR SOLVENTLESS EXTRACTION OF CANNABIS ESSENTIAL OILS
An apparatus for extracting cannabis essential oils. A housing is provided for containing trichome material from a cannabis plant, the housing having a sealable opening. A rotatable impeller is disposed in the housing. A container is connected to the housing for collecting essential oils. The process for extracting cannabis essential oils includes the steps of introducing trichome material from the cannabis plant into the housing, introducing water and ice into the housing via an opening therein, and agitating the water and ice and the trichome material to separate and extract essential oils therefrom.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A PROCESS TO PROVIDE IMPROVED PREPARATION OF CONSUMABLES
A system and method for a process to prepare consumable food and/or drink products by means of precise heating and stirring for a set period of time. The system utilizes a variable rotation rate magnetic stirring process, a variable temperature heating process, and a timing process in order to prepare consumables. The magnetic stirrer provides agitation to a fluid medium and facilitates homogenous distribution of heat produced by the heating element throughout the fluid. This even distribution of heat creates an improved consumable preparation. The system is suitable for home use.
Systems and methods for nanofunctionalization of powders
Some variations provide a system for producing a functionalized powder, comprising: an agitated pressure vessel; first particles and second particles contained within the agitated pressure vessel; a fluid contained within the agitated pressure vessel; an exhaust line for releasing the fluid from the agitated pressure vessel; and a means for recovering a functionalized powder containing the second particles disposed onto surfaces of the first particles. A preferred fluid is carbon dioxide in liquefied or supercritical form. The carbon dioxide may be initially loaded into the pressure vessel as solid carbon dioxide. The pressure vessel may be batch or continuous and is operated under reaction conditions to functionalize the first particles with the second particles, thereby producing a functionalized powder, such as nanofunctionalized metal particles in which nanoparticles act as grain refiners for a component ultimately produced from the nanofunctionalized metal particles. Methods for making the functionalized powder are also disclosed.
Universal liquid solution generation platform
A platform for onsite creation of consumable liquids is provided. The platform includes a liquid generating machine, a set of cubes, compatible bottles, and a user interface device. The liquid generating machine may include a water storage module, a cube module, a liquid making module and a bottle filling and cleaning module. The platform decentralizes the production of consumable liquids, such as drinking waters, enhances the consumer's experience, significantly increases consumers' choices, all while simplifying the consumption process (buying the water, carrying it, getting rid of/recycling the plastic bottle, etc.). The platform includes customizable liquid generating recipes associated with the cubes that may be provided through a network or local database and a security feature that allows the authorization of users to generate and access controlled liquids.
