| 20110174604 | COMPACT WASTEWATER CONCENTRATOR USING WASTE HEAT - A compact and portable liquid concentrator includes a gas inlet, a gas exit and a flow corridor connecting the gas inlet and the gas exit, wherein the flow corridor includes a narrowed portion that accelerates the gas through the flow corridor. A liquid inlet injects liquid into the gas stream at a point prior to the narrowed portion so that the gas-liquid mixture is thoroughly mixed within the flow corridor, causing a portion of the liquid to be evaporated. A demister or fluid scrubber downstream of the narrowed portion removes entrained liquid droplets from the gas stream and re-circulates the removed liquid to the liquid inlet through a re-circulating circuit. Fresh liquid to be concentrated is also introduced into the re-circulating circuit at a rate sufficient to offset the amount of liquid evaporated in the flow corridor. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20130001060 | FLUID FRICTION-BASED DISTILLATION APPARATUS - The invention provides an apparatus for frictionally heating one or more fluids to produce one or more distilled fluids and to separate impurities from the one or more fluids. The apparatus includes a housing for receiving the one or more fluids. The apparatus also includes one or more rotatable cylinders enclosed within the housing. The one or more rotatable cylinders include a plurality of friction elements. On rotating the one or more rotatable cylinders, the impurities are separated from the one or more fluids and the plurality of friction elements frictionally interact with the one or more fluids to generate vapors. Thereafter, the one or more impurities are collected in an impurity collector associated with the housing. The vapors generated due to the frictional interaction are received by one or more condensers which condense the vapors to produce one or more distilled fluids. | 01-03-2013 |
| 20130068606 | FLUID AGITATOR FOR USE IN AN IMMERSION COOLER - An immersion cooler comprising an agitator motor having a drive shaft, an evaporator located in a tank and surrounding the drive shaft, and an agitator coupled to the drive shaft. The agitator is configured to draw a fluid from the tank and distribute the fluid around a periphery of the agitator and toward the evaporator. An agitator and a method of manufacturing an immersion cooler are also provided. | 03-21-2013 |
| 20130153396 | Purification of a fluid for example water after fracturing - An apparatus for treating frac water may include a vacuum container to support a vacuum, a heating device to heat the vacuum container, a spiral auger to rotate to separate the frac water being positioned within the vacuum container, a condenser to condense the water vapor to liquid water, a second vacuum chamber to receive the liquid water and a storage container to store the liquid water. | 06-20-2013 |
| 20140027267 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCTION OF CONTAMINANTS IN EVAPORATOR DISTILLATE - A method and apparatus for producing high purity distillate in evaporators is useful for evaporation of waters where volatile silica or organic compounds are encountered such as in production of hydrocarbons from geological formations. An evaporator having a contaminant reduction system is provided. The contaminant reduction system includes an upflow first mist eliminator portion to remove entrained liquid droplets and produce an intermediate purity water vapor stream. A continuous spray system provides a spray of dilute caustic solution in a selected spray configuration for mass transfer contact with the passing intermediate purity water vapor stream, to remove volatile silica compounds therefrom, and produce a partially decontaminated steam stream having mist particles therein. An upflow second mist eliminator portion is provided to remove the residual mist particles, and produce a high purity water vapor stream. The high purity water vapor stream is condensed to provide a high purity distillate stream. | 01-30-2014 |
| 20140131189 | COMBINED TANGENTIAL SHEAR HOMOGENIZING AND FLASHING APPARATUS HAVING ROTOR/STATOR GAP DIMENSION WITH UNIFORM AND NON-UNIFORM REGIONS - A combined tangential shear homogenizing and flashing apparatus for destructuring pretreated biomass comprises a housing connectable to a source of pressurized pretreated biomass, and a stator and a rotor mounted within the housing. The stator and rotor being confrontationally disposed and spaced apart by an axial gap. The gap as a radially outer region having a uniform dimension and a radially inner region having at least one section exhibiting a non-uniform dimension. The radially outer region defines a valve. In use, rotational movement of the rotor with respect to the stator imparts a tangential shear to a volume of pretreated biomass. The tangential shear homogenizes the biomass while a pressure difference causes a partial phase separation of the homogenized biomass into vapor and liquid phases such that the pretreated biomass undergoes at least a three-fold total volumetric increase and a weight transition to a vapor of at least one percent. | 05-15-2014 |
