Filed:

Jan 13, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/006112

Inventors:

Daryl J. Yane - Kent OH
Howard J. Base - Macedonia OH
Joseph E. James - Streetsboro OH

Assignee:

Lufran Incorporated - Streetsboro OH

International Classification:

F24H 110

US Classification:

392482

Abstract:

An apparatus for heating a fluid such as ultra-pure de-ionized (UPDI) water is disclosed. The fluid heater includes an intermediate body portion, a bottom end cap assembly secured to one end of the intermediate body portion, and a top end cap assembly secured to the other end of the intermediate body portion. The intermediate body portion includes a number of concentric quartz tubes wherein a first quartz tube is spaced radially inwardly of a second quartz tube to define an inner fluid pathway for heating UPDI water while flowing through the inner fluid pathway. A third quartz tube is spaced radially outwardly of the second quartz tube and radially inwardly of a fourth quartz tube to define an outer annular fluid pathway for further heating the UPDI water received from the inner fluid pathway. A resistive heating element is interposed between the second and third quartz tubes for heating the UPDI water by means of conduction, convection and heat radiation with a heating efficiency approaching 100%.

Abstract:

A purge manifold assembly, which can be used in a gas purged immersion heater, includes a housing having a vessel wall having an aperture extending therethrough. A purge manifold is located adjacent the vessel wall. The purge manifold includes an aperture extending therethrough and colinear with the vessel wall aperture, a bore extending in the purge manifold, in a direction approximately normal to the purge manifold aperture, and a port communicating the bore with the purge manifold aperture. A fitting body extends into the vessel wall aperture and the purge manifold aperture. The fitting body includes a longitudinally extending through bore and a port communicating with the through bore. The port also communicates with the port of the purge manifold. In this way, a purge gas is allowed to flow through a sheath enclosing a heater wire held in the housing of the gas purged immersion heater.

Appl. No.:

17/632959

Inventors:

Joseph H. JAMES - Brecksville OH, US

International Classification:

A01N 33/12

Abstract:

An antimicrobial composition is disclosed. The composition delivers several orders of magnitude improvement in the reduction of infectious materials (i.e., microbial substances, including bacteria, fungus, germs, and other pathogens). An organosilyl quaternary ammonium ion or salt is paired with a corresponding quaternary ammonium ion or salt at specific but extraordinarily low concentrations, so as to minimize any perceived harmful effects of these active ingredients while simultaneously delivering synergistic improvements to the efficacy of those active.

Abstract:

The invention is a novel Top-Lit-Updraft cook stove with internal forced primary and secondary air, designed to burn biomass. The cook stove is specifically designed to cleanly burn biomass. The stoves design innovations include a cylinder-within-cylinder design to provide heated, forced secondary to the burner area right below the burner. The burner design addresses limitations in previous cookstove burner design by implementing a bluff body design to direct syngas to the secondary air jets, improving mixing and combustion of volatile gases.
