Appl. No.:

13/366162

Inventors:

Jie Li - Darien IL, US
Yung Y. Liu - Hinsdale IL, US

Assignee:

UCHICAGO AGONNE, LLC - Chicago IL

International Classification:

B05D 7/00
B05C 13/02
B05B 17/00

US Classification:

427213, 239 1, 118 62

Abstract:

The invention provides a method for dispersing particles within a reaction field, the method comprising confining the particles to the reaction field using a standing wave. The invention also provides a system for coating particles, the system comprising a reaction zone; a means for producing fluidized particles within the reaction zone; a fluid to produce a standing wave within the reaction zone; and a means for introducing coating moieties to the reaction zone. The invention also provides a method for coating particles, the method comprising fluidizing the particles, subjecting the particles to a standing wave; and contacting the subjected particles with a coating moiety.

- Chicago IL, US
Jie LI - Forest Park IL, US

Assignee:

Rush University Medical Center - Chicago IL

International Classification:

A61M 16/00
A61M 16/20

Abstract:

The disclosure is directed to an apparatus and a method for improving manual ventilation and resuscitation by monitoring ventilation parameters and assisting resuscitation. The apparatus includes a gas flow sensor configured to measure a flow rate of exhaled gas of a subject. The apparatus is configured to receive an ideal body weight or a predicated body weight of the subject and calculate a first tidal volume range based on the ideal body weight or the predicated body weight of the subject. The apparatus is also configured to obtain an exhaled tidal volume of the subject based on the measured flow rate and determine whether the exhaled tidal volume is within the first tidal volume range. When it is determined that the exhaled tidal volume is not within the first tidal volume range, the apparatus is further configured to perform a first tidal volume warning.

Assignee:

GOWell International, LLC - Houston TX

International Classification:

E21B 47/005
E21B 33/14

Abstract:

An apparatus and method to evaluate light-weight cement (LWC) bond conditions behind the casing in a downhole environment of a wellbore. The apparatus includes a logging (CBL) instrument that can detect aberrations in the LWC behind the casing based on variations in the transducer impedance measurements without using pad. The CBL instrument includes a transducer matrix, a signal acquisition controller, a data processing module, and a communication unit.

International Classification:

C03C 4/02
C03C 1/02
C03B 25/02
C03C 1/10
C03C 3/04

Abstract:

The invention provides a method for producing composite nanoparticles, the method using a first compound capable of transitioning from a monoclinic to a tetragonal rutile crystal state upon heating, and having the steps of subjecting the first compound to a hydrothermal synthesis to create anisotropic crystals of the compound; encapsulating the first compound with a second compound to create a core-shell construct; and annealing the construct as needed. Also provided is a device for continuously synthesizing composite nanoparticles, the device having a first precursor supply and a second precursor supply; a mixer to homogeneously combine the first precursor and second precursor to create a liquor; a first microreactor to subject the liquor to hydrothermic conditions to create an\isotropic particles in a continuous operation mode; and a second microreactor for coating the particles with a third precursor to create a core-shell construct.
