摘要： A method of separating the membrane and mineral fractions from an input stream of broken empty egg shells comprises a vacuum treatment to promote the membrane fraction to “eject” or detach from the attached or adhered scraps of mineral, ie., mineral shards or powder. A main processor operates at a level of vacuum that determines a given boiling temperature for water, and one which lower than water's boiling temperature for the local vicinity's barometric pressure (eg., atmospheric pressure). The input stream is pre-heated to above the given boiling temperature for water as determined by the main processor's vacuum level without, however, going over the boiling temperature for the local barometric pressure. It is then introduced into the vacuum of the main processor whereby a small percentage of the water content flashes into steam, and this presumptively promotes membrane matter to eject or detach from the shards or powder of mineral.

摘要： A method of vacuum drying sludge or slurry input material comprises providing a closed-ended vacuum tunnel with at least two interior augers. The tunnel has an interior bed recessed with adjacent troughs separated by a low partition for accommodating the two augers in closely-spaced generally-horizontal side-by-side relation. The augers are driven counter-rotating such the input material re-circulates in an endless loop down one auger, over to the other and back again. The augers have screws formed with stubby flights to form a cut-and-fold arrangement and disintegrate the material. The chamber is heated up to or over 70° C. and a current of air is suctioned into the tunnel through inlets and out through ports in part pull a slight vacuum in the tunnel as well as to suction up and draw out disintegrating fractions of the material including gasified fractions, waftable finely divided particulate fractions and other waftable fractions.

摘要： A method of treating a waste stream comprises a vacuum treatment to promote disintegration of the waste material by “flash vapor” production, causing a swiftly vaporizing fraction inside the material to literally explode or shred apart the matrix of the material as a whole. A main processor operates at a level of vacuum that determines a given boiling temperature for a vaporizing fraction, and one which lower than the fraction's boiling temperature for the local vicinity's barometric pressure (eg., atmospheric pressure). The input stream is pre-heated to above the given boiling temperature for that fraction as determined by the main processor's vacuum level without, however, going over the boiling temperature for the local barometric pressure. It is then introduced into the vacuum of the main processor whereby a minor percentage of the vaporizing fraction flashes into vapor, and this presumptively promotes destruction and/or disintegration of the material.

摘要： The present invention provides a system to detect conductive contaminants interspersed within unconsolidated materials. By using the system described herein, voluminous amounts of unconsolidated materials such as soils, waste streams, hay, and similar non-conductive materials may be processed such that conductive contaminants, namely metal objects, may be identified and removed from the processed material. In general, the present invention utilizes the conductive property of these contaminants to alert the system such that the contaminant may be removed. By passing the unconsolidated materials across an arrangement of different contacts placed in close proximity, metal or similar conductive contaminants will complete an electrical circuit that signals a sensor within the circuit and initiates a partial shut down procedure. Though this sensor is preferably at least one programmable voltage sensor, the sensor may comprise a current transformer or light incorporated into the electrical circuit that detects each conductive contaminant. A light sensor that may trigger at least one relay to halt the processing of material as described herein may detect this emission. This system and its method of use may be adapted to detect conductive contaminants in voluminous, unconsolidated materials in a variety of applications.
