My name is Barbara Howell and I live on a small farm in the Mechanicsville area of Hanover County. I am an avid horsewoman in my spare time, and have serviced many clients in the equine field over the past years. When I am not working, I enjoy trail riding and horse camping with friends.
I have worked in the Real Estate business since 2003, coming to the field with years of experience in field sales for 2 large cooperatives. I love the business and I particularly like working with farm and land sales. I was awarded Distinguished Achiever Awards for 4 of the last 5 years and have consistently been a multi million dollar producer. Large or small, land or residential homes, call me to help you make your dreams come true!!!

Spinning Filter Separation System For Oil Spill Clean-Up Operation
John Wehrle - Greenbelt MD Eugene C. Fischer - Stevensville MD William P. Kenney - Annapolis MD Joseph F. Korczynski - Glen Burnie MD Thomas D. Gracik - Glen Burnie MD Barbara F. Howell - Arnold MD William Klemens - Severna Park MD
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
B01D 2126 B01D 6316
US Classification:
21032167
Abstract:
Oil spill polluted water is conducted under pressure in sequence through arator devices to collect and burn a polluted water mixture having its oil concentration increased by extraction of water therefrom during axial flow through the separator devices. Such water extraction is effected by sequential radial outflow through oil flow blocking filter walls of the separator devices in response to rotation thereof.
Apparatus And Method For Forming Textured Bulk High Temperature Superconducting Materials
John P. Wehrle - Riverdale MD Barbara F. Howell - Arnold MD James G. Morris - Arnold MD
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
C30B 1102
US Classification:
505400
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for fabricating textured pseudo-single crystal bulk superconducting materials, featuring introduction of a pressure gradient and/or of a magnetic field for enhancement of known melt-texturing directional solidification techniques using a steep temperature gradient furnace for increasing temperatures at which superconductive properties can be maintained in superconducting materials. The strengths of the temperature gradient, pressure gradient and/or magnetic field can be optimally varied, resulting in formation of superconducting material exhibiting superconductive properties at higher temperatures than previously achievable.

International Classification:
B05D 306
US Classification:
427514
Abstract:
A method is described for forming a pigmented coating on a poorly prepared, old metal surface that cures in less than one minute by exposure to ultraviolet radiation from a xenon lamp and emits extremely low levels of volatile organic compounds so that application can be done safely in a confined space.

Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
C02F 102
US Classification:
210768
Abstract:
Oil and water continuously collected during an oil spill skimming operation s initially heated for flow through a separator wherein water is separated and discharged into the sea to reduce the water content of a heated oil and water solution fed to a combustion chamber under pressure for continuous in-situ burning interrelated by feedback control with the heating step to provide combustion products, including combustion gas that is cooled and cleansed by scrubbing before discharge to atmosphere, and a slurry of cooled non-gaseous combustion products that are evaporatively dried to form a reduced quantity of carbonaceous solid waste.
Synthetic Method For Ethynylation Of Aromatic Compounds
Thomas DiBerardino - Severna Park MD Patricia M. Lutz - Lincroft NJ Barbara F. Howell - Arnold MD
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
C07C 4561 C07C 4500
US Classification:
568437
Abstract:
A method of producing an ethynyl aromatic aldehyde comprises reacting a protected copper(I) acetylide salt with a halogen substituted aromatic compound to produce a protected ethynyl aromatic aldehyde. The protected ethynyl aromatic aldehyde may be deprotected to yield an acetylene terminated aromatic aldehyde which is useful for making acetylenic Schiff's base monomers and conductive polymers thereof.

Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
H01L 3524
US Classification:
1362361
Abstract:
A thermoelectric material is provided whose temperature decreases upon passing an electric current therethrough. The material is a mixture of poly-3-octylthiophene and ferric chloride in a respective molar ratio of approximately 2:1.
Process For Producing Hydrophilic Polymer Membranes
Barbara F. Howell - Arnold MD Ravanasamudram S. Venkatachalam - Arnold MD John P. Wehrle - Riverdale MD
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
C08J 520
US Classification:
521 27
Abstract:
Hydrophilicity of hydrophilic polymers, in the form of heat-crosslinked cings on porous membranes, is increased by exposure to an oxygen plasma, preferably for about 60 seconds. The plasma is generated at an oxygen gas pressure of about 1. 5 Torrs in a chamber subjected to radio frequency electromagnetic radiation with a power of 25-100 watts. Such highly hydrophilic membranes have increased efficiency and durability when used as ultrafiltration membranes for separating hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials, such as smoke-air and oil-water mixtures.
