The present invention achieves a decontamination effect with a proper amount of hydrogen peroxide mist supplied to a room to be decontaminated by further refining such hydrogen peroxide mist supplied to the room for dispersion/diffusion, and reducing the duration of operations such as aeration to increase efficiency of decontamination.

The decontamination system includes a mist generation means, a mist discharge port, and a mist dispersion/diffusion means. The mist generation means converts a decontamination liquid into a mist to generate a mist for decontamination. The mist discharge port is opened at an upper portion on an internal side wall surface of the room to discharge a such mist into the inside of the room. The mist dispersion/diffusion means generates sound flows by an ultrasound in the vertical direction from a plate surface of a vibration plate provided adjacent to a lower portion of the mist discharge port on the internal side wall surface of the room or adjacent to a lower portion on a side surface in a mist discharge direction. The mist is pressed by acoustic radiation pressure backward or laterally in intermittent operation or stronger/weaker operation of the system.

An active substance supply system for an agricultural sprayer has a main liquid circuit which includes a reservoir for a main liquid and permits circulation of the main liquid, where the main liquid circuit includes one or more distribution sections which are each configured to distribute to several dispensing elements a spray liquid to be dispensed, and a feed system which is connected to the main liquid circuit and in which the main liquid is mixed with at least one separately supplied active substance to form a liquid active substance mixture, where the active substance supply system is configured to introduce the active substance mixture into the one or more distribution sections at several places.

A lawn maintenance device that is calibrated in the field by a user through a mobile software app to irrigate and/or fertigate one or more arbitrary geometrical areas defined by the user. The device includes a motorized rotary drive mechanism for controlling the rotational angle of a pivotable nozzle and a flow control valve for controlling water jet throw distance. At least one container is integrated into the device for dispensing fertilizer, herbicide and other such concentrated lawn or garden solutions. The device communicates with and is controlled by a web server which dynamically computes a watering path and triggers the device to commence irrigation over the computed path based on prevailing local environmental conditions and/or user settings.

A system and method for customizing the solution used in the sunless spray tanning process are provided. In at least one form, the solution is volumetrically mixed at the point of use, allowing for greater customization and a more consistent tanning result. Providing improved customization at the point of use is accomplished, in at least one form, by using a two-part tanning solution: one part being a high concentration DHA solution and another part being an activator solution. The two parts are mixed with one another at the point of use based on user preferences at the time of the tanning session to provide a specific final DHA concentration for a customized tanning result.

A dispensing system (2000), includes a container (900) containing a flowable base formulation (910) to be dispensed, an additive mixing device (2004), and an actuable pump engine (2002) which draws the flowable base formulation from the container and pumps it through the mixing device. The additive mixing device includes a body (2022) with an internal cavity (2052), an additive ingredient (2054) within the cavity, and a flow path/mixing chamber (2058) between an input and an output. With each pump of the device (2004) the additive ingredient is introduced into, and mixed with, a flow of the base formulation traveling through the mixing device. Multiple additive mixing devices (2004) may be interchangeable for different formulations, and the mixing devices may be refillable.

A liquid-mixing apparatus used in a liquid-mixing method comprises a plurality of supply valves provided to a cylinder. The supply valves make it possible to individually supply a plurality of types of liquids into a retention chamber. Each of the supply valves is configured so as to be switchable between an open state, in which the interior of a supply channel via which a liquid is supplied and the interior of the retention chamber intercommunicate, and a closed state, in which communication between the supply channel and the retention chamber is blocked. A piston moves in the direction in which the volume of the retention chamber increases while at least one of the supply valves is in the open state, whereby a liquid is drawn into the storage chamber.

Contrivances for dispensing or applying biologically active compositions such as insecticides and herbicides. More particularly, a system is provided that is capable of dispensing or applying a composition from a selection of available compositions and at a required concentration. In one version, the system includes first and second concentrate reservoirs, a diluent reservoir, and a diluent composition conduit. The system is configured such that a diluent in the diluent reservoir is mixed with a concentrate of the first or second concentrate reservoir to form a diluted composition. The diluted composition is prepared to a specified concentration by mixing the concentrate and diluent in appropriate proportions.

In a method for carrying out a cleaning procedure for a cooking appliance, a first tank of the cooking appliance is filled by a user with water. A first portion of water in the first tank is moved into a buffer store and then moved from the buffer store into a cooking chamber to provide a first treatment agent therein. The first treatment agent remains in the cooking chamber for a first time period. A second portion of water in the first tank is moved into the buffer store and the first treatment agent is moved into the first tank. The second portion of water in the buffer store is into the cooking chamber to provide a second treatment agent in the cooking chamber. The second treatment agent remains in the cooking chamber for a second time period and the second treatment agent is then moved into the first tank.
