| 20080223404 | Space Disinfection - A method for disinfecting a volume or surfaces bounding a volume comprising nebulizing a solution comprising a sterilizing agent in a solvent having a lower boiling point than the sterilizing agent, for example ultrasonic nebulization of aqueous hydrogen peroxide, to form a nebulant. The nebulant is subjected to energy of a kind and for a duration sufficient to vaporize solvent in preference to sterilizing agent, eg heating element means, infra red, laser, microwave, RF or other radiation generating means; induction heating means; heat exchanger means; conduction means; convection means; or mechanical energy transfer means to increase the concentration of the agent in the nebulant particles. Vaporized solvent is removed from the gas stream at or above atmospheric pressure and, if necessary, the nebulant is cooled to below 7O0C. The volume or surfaces are exposed to the nebulant for a time sufficient to sterilize said volume or surfaces. Also, apparatus for carrying out the method. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20090078284 | Extraction Cleaning with Heating - A portable extraction surface cleaner apparatus wherein a surface to be cleaned is heated to an elevated temperature and a cleaning fluid is applied to the surface to be cleaned sequentially or simultaneously. The cleaning fluid is removed from the surface by suction from a vacuum source. Power is applied alternatively or simultaneously to a heating element and to the vacuum source for recovering the deposited cleaning fluid. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090250083 | Method for the Decontamination of an Oxide Layer-containing Surface of a Component or a System of a Nuclear Facility - A method of decontaminating an oxide layer-comprising surface of a component or a system of a nuclear facility. An acidic water film is produced on the surface, the film of water is brought into contact with a gaseous acid anhydride, and the oxide layer is treated with gaseous ozone as oxidizing agent. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090301521 | STEAM CLEANER USING ELECTROLYZED LIQUID AND METHOD THEREFOR - An apparatus and method are provided for generating an electrochemically-activated vapor. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20100018552 | CLEANING DEVICE AND CLEANING METHOD OF SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING APPARATUS - Provided are a cleaning device and a cleaning method of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, capable of performing a cleaning process more effectively as compared to conventional cases and obtaining a high cleaning effect. A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus cleaning device | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100101606 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CLEANING A COMPONENT, PARTICULARY OF A VAPORIZER OF A CONDENSER DEVICE AND A WASHER OR WASHER/DRYER COMPRISING SUCH A DEVICE - A rinsing container is provided for use in a process air circuit of a washer or washer/dryer and receives condensation water from a condensation water tank that collects condensation water acquired in the process air circuit from the drying of wet laundry. The rinsing container is provided above the condenser and dispenses a gush of water to a selected component via the sudden opening of the rinsing container on its outlet side. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20110126856 | Method of removing contaminants from hard surfaces - A method for removing contaminants from hard surfaces such as metal or plastic resin material using a propane and carbon dioxide system. The propane and carbon dioxide system removes the contaminants by a varying percentage of propane to carbon dioxide to maximize the cleaning properties while creating a gas combination without a flammability range in air. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20130152967 | DISHWASHER WITH CLOSED LOOP CONDENSER - A dishwasher with a closed loop condenser having a moist air conduit, a dry air conduit having a portion in overlying relationship with a portion of the moist air conduit, wherein the overlying portions of the moist air conduit and the dry air conduit form a heat exchanger, and a controllable gate for selectively introducing, exhausting, or redirecting air relative to the condenser. | 06-20-2013 |
| 20160015841 | CONDENSATION ASSEMBLY AND METHOD - A condenser assembly for a chamber of a sterilization system is provided which includes a cooling apparatus operable within the chamber and external means for receiving exhaust air and vapors from the chamber and for separating vapors into water and air. The external means may include an air-water separator or a condenser. The cooling apparatus is operable during at least one phase or cycle of a sterilization process to reduce the temperature inside the chamber and increase the condensation of vapors inside the chamber. A method of treating articles in a sterilization system with the condenser assembly includes disinfecting the articles in a chamber and, after disinfecting, recondensing vapor within the chamber using the cooling apparatus. | 01-21-2016 |
