Methods, systems and/or apparatus related to the manufacture and use of biodigesters are disclosed. Moreover, techniques for the manufacture of reactors whose final shape increases the lifespan of the biodigester, as well as modular techniques for the manufacture of the reactors, are included.

The described embodiments include systems, methods, and apparatuses for increased efficiency processing flow. One method includes a plurality of stages configured to process an execution graph that includes a plurality of logical nodes with defined properties and resources associated with each logical node of the plurality of logical nodes, a recirculating ring buffer, wherein the recirculating ring buffer is configured to holding only any one of a control information, input, and, or out data necessary to stream a temporary data between each logical node of the execution graph, and a data producer, wherein the data producer is configured to stall from writing control information into a command buffer upon the command buffer being full, preventing command buffer over-writing.

A method and apparatus for collecting agricultural manure in a confined animal feeding operation includes a separator which receives heavy manure removing particulate from suspension to produce light manure. Heavy manure is collected to a volume of heavy manure sufficient to substantially fill the first tank. Within the first tank, particulate migrates, due to the influence of gravity to form a layer containing manure comprising a lesser density of particulate than is present in the volume of heavy manure. Additional heavy manure buoys the layer such that the upper surface exceeds a height of a weir. The weir is situated in a channel communicating between the first tank and a second tank configured to receive light manure from the separator.

A system and method for generating a virtual reality scene from scanned point cloud data having user defined content is provided. The system includes a coordinate measurement device operable to measure three-dimensional coordinates. A computing device having a processor is operably coupled to the coordinate measurement device, the processor being operable to generate a point cloud data and insert user defined content into the point cloud data in response to an input from a user, the processor further being operable to generate a virtual reality data file based at least in part on the point cloud data with the user defined content. A virtual reality device is operably coupled to the computing device, the virtual reality device being operable to display the virtual reality data file to the user.

The claimed invention discloses system comprising a plurality of logical nodes comprised in a single or plurality of stages, with defined properties and resources associated with each node, for reducing compute resources, said system further comprising: at least a recirculating ring buffer holding only any one of a control information, input, and, or out data necessary to stream a temporary data between node and, or nodes in an execution graph, thereby reducing size of said recirculating ring buffer; said recirculating ring buffer being sufficiently reduced in size to reside in an on-chip cache, such that any one of the control information, input, and, or out data between node and, or nodes need not be stored in memory; wherein the control information further comprises a command related to invalidating any one of the input and, or out data held in a recirculating ring data buffer, clearing the buffer of tasked data; and wherein a producer is stalled from writing any more control information into a recirculating ring command buffer upon the buffer being full, preventing command buffer over-writing, and thereby reducing compute resources associated with a DRAM memory transaction.

Disclosed is a pressostatic odor control cover for slurry treatment tank with a device for reducing the inner volume occupied by harmful and malodorous gases emitted from the surface of the slurry. The treatment tank is delimited by a base and by lateral containment walls. The cover includes: a gas impermeable flexible membrane; a gas-tight continuous fixing unit of a margin of the membrane to the tank; an insufflation unit of air inside the cover; and a discharge valve of the air out of the cover. The odor control cover also includes a diaphragm permeable to liquids and to gases, arranged to delimit a reduced volume of the odor control cover available to the harmful gases and to the malodorous substances released from the slurry. The air insufflation unit is connected to the cover above the diaphragm. The discharge valve is connected to the cover below the diaphragm.
