Abstract:
Method for reducing ocean temperatures and enhancing alkalinity, the method cited here both reduces ocean acidification and helps lower ocean water temperature by reflecting the sun with a froth flotation of bubbles, a method when used in areas of coral reef improves the conditions necessary for coral reef growth, the method consists of first locating a dispersing source, such as a boat or other device able to position itself over a coral reef, or in any ocean section, second creating a froth flotation of bubbles with alkaline and other minerals attached, and then third dispersing the froth flotation consisting of bubbles with minerals attached, over the coral reefs, and then having the bubbles to reflect the sun rays to lower ocean temperature, the method also allows the alkaline minerals to disengage from the bubbles over time, reducing the acidification levels in the ocean and around coral reefs.
Abstract:
A golf tee tether assembly for PURPOSE includes a cable has a length of no less than 19.0 inches. A pair of grommets is each attached to a respective end of the cable. Each of the grommets has an inside diameter of no more than 0.312 inches thereby facilitating each of the grommets to insertably receive a golf tee. A first one of the grommets is positionable at a drive location on a golf course to support a golf ball for driving the golf ball. A second one of the grommets is positionable at an anchor location that is displaced from the drive location. In this way the golf tee in the second grommet inhibits the golf tee in the first grommet from flying away when the golf ball is driven.
Abstract:
An ostomy output diversion device is used to cover and seal closely around a patient's stoma, to divert stoma effluent output through the device, through a drain tube and into a container or reservoir, temporarily eliminating the need of an adhesive-based ostomy pouching system. The ostomy output diversion device is placed over the person's stoma, with the base ring surrounding the peristomal skin, the adjustable inner tube is retracted until the base ring is centered over the stoma, the body support strap is then placed over the device to secure it to the patient's body, the inner tube with stoma-sized adapter is then extended over the stoma, the patient applies the desired pressure against the skin, then secures the stoma-sized adapter in place with the pressure adjustment lock. The device may also include an ostomy pouch mounting ring for attachment to an ostomy pouch, and a disposable receptacle.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are embodiments of a metal chelate, and compositions and/or combinations comprising the same. Also disclosed are embodiments of a method for making the metal chelate and a method for using the metal chelate. In some embodiments, the metal chelate is administered to an animal.
Abstract:
An ostomy pouch replacement device is provided to allow ostomates with a surgically created stoma to collect, contain and dispose of bodily fluids during frequent hygienic maintenance. The device is customizable to each ostomate's unique stoma diameter and provides a disposable waste receptacle designed to have a hollow absorbent section and a solid absorbent section for sanitary, discreet and odorless disposal of both urine and excrement. The device preferably consists of a disposable waste receptacle that may be positioned over the stoma and further includes an absorbent inner material for capturing any waste that may be discharged, a push cap for pressing the absorbent material to the stoma, a cap or plug for sealing the device after use, and a collar stand for pressing an adhesive wafer to the skin and for holding the assembled device in an upright position.
Abstract:
A water level detection system in a pool, spa, fountain or water feature, the water level detection system being provided with a tap line coupled to a plumbing line on a suction or supply side of a filtration system and admitting water from the pool, spa, fountain or water feature such that the change in level of the water in the tap line corresponds to a change in level of the water in the pool, spa, fountain or water feature. A sensing module has at least one sensor for detecting the height of a column of water or the pressure of a column of air in the water tap line. A controller is coupled to the sensing module and adapted to collect the data from the sensors that detect changes in the level of the water level of the pool, spa, fountain or water feature, communicate the detection of such a change, and report such a change to initiate addition or removal of water from the pool, spa, fountain or water feature body of water to adjust the water level in the body of water to a set point.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for drying and gasifying substances using the calorific value contained in the substances, and it more specifically relates to apparatus and methods for processing wet, pasty, sticky substances, such as municipal wastewater treatment sewage sludge, into a workable, powdered product.
Abstract:
An underwater projection system, a controller and method of controlling are herein described. The controller providing, at least in part, a boundary setting module or methodology and/or an image correction module or methodology through a user interface for the underwater projection system. A user interface is provided to enable user control and input and adjustment of the image controller from an observation point outside of the media of the underwater projection system, while the adjustments are made in-situ. An optional automated edge or edge and surface detection system is also contemplated to assist in boundary detection within the water feature for the underwater image projection system.
Abstract:
An underwater image projection system submerged in a body of water and projecting an image within said body of water is provided having an enclosure with a lens assembly. A projection element has a light source projecting an image within the body of water from the projection element with an at least one light source steering the image. A system controller is coupled to and controls the projected light source, the projected light source steering device and the further image steering device. A user inputs image data to the controller through the user input device and the controller interprets the image data into a set of image control variables and executes control of the projected light source and image source and further image steering device in coordination and projects the image through the projection element to project from underwater a static or animated image on an underwater surface of the body of water.
