Abstract: Cleaning apparatus having multiple wash tanks for washing articles in a carbon dioxide dry cleaning system employing a liquid carbon dioxide cleaning solution are provided. Cleaning apparatus having multiple wash tanks of the present invention may provide improved thermodynamic efficiency by allowing carbon dioxide vapor to be transferred between wash tanks rather than condensed. Cleaning apparatus having multiple wash tanks of the present invention may have a lower capital cost than multiple cleaning systems having single wash tanks. Cleaning apparatus having multiple wash tanks of the present invention include a first wash tank for contacting a first article with liquid carbon dioxide cleaning solution, and a second wash tank for contacting a second article with liquid carbon dioxide cleaning solution. The second wash tank is in fluid communication with the first wash tank. Methods of utilizing such cleaning apparatus are also provided. Coating apparatus having multiple coating tanks and methods of utilizing such coating apparatus are also provided.

Abstract: A microenvironment system for use with a heat transfer fluid includes a microenvironment structure and a fluid handling apparatus. The microenvironment structure defines a flow passage to receive a flow of the heat transfer fluid therethrough. The fluid handling apparatus is adapted to provide a flow of the heat transfer fluid through the flow passage. The fluid handling apparatus includes a gas driven pump and a supply of a phase change material (PCM). The gas driven pump is operable to force the flow of the heat transfer fluid through the flow passage. The supply of the PCM is convertible from a solid and/or liquid phase to a gas phase to provide a pressurized drive gas. The fluid handling apparatus is configured to drive the gas driven pump using the pressurized drive gas from the supply of the PCM.
