Provided herein are systems and methods associated therewith for killing molds and reducing other contaminating bioburden that may include bacteria and their spores, yeast, and viruses within various dwellings including homes, office buildings, institutions, and any other enclosed space in which humans reside, either temporarily or permanently. The technology of the present invention can be used to treat vehicles, airplanes, and ships. A process according to the invention includes the generation of a gaseous oxyhalogen species and distribution of the gaseous oxyhalogen species throughout a selected dwelling. It has been unexpectedly found that the concentration level of gaseous oxyhalogen species necessary to kill molds according to the inventive methods is far below that previously recognized in the art as being necessary for the killing of such molds. Thus, mold infestations may be killed in dwellings with minimal disruption to the usual business of the inhabitants. Further, fabrics such as drapes and upholsteries contained within such dwellings may be carried out without causing any detrimental color changes to the fabrics.

A valve assembly for a fluid-containing tank and method of making same are provided wherein such valve assembly is mounted on a saddle fixed to a bottom portion of the tank and such valve assembly comprises a housing structure having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet defined therein, means for mounting the housing structure against the saddle and within the confines of the tank, and a bottom operable valve member carried by the housing structure and adapted to shut off fluid flow between the inlet and outlet, and wherein the inlet and outlet are defined in the housing structure on a common rectilinear flow axis and the valve member has an opening therethrough which is adapted to be aligned between the inlet and outlet to define the open position of the valve assembly. The valve member once moved to the open position enables substantially free unobstructed flow of fluid through the valve assembly parallel to the axis and with minimum pressure drop to thereby enable a maximum rate of fluid transfer through the valve assembly.

The invention provides a process for preparing a neutral or an overbased detergent, the process by: reacting (a) a pre-prepared suspension comprising (i) a metal base with a mean particle size of 10 micrometers or less; (ii) a surfactant; and (iii) an organic medium in which the metal base is suspended typically by a physical process. An overbased detergent may be formed with a further reaction with acidifying overbasing agent. The invention further provides a lubricant composition containing said neutral and overbased detergent.

The invention provides a process for preparing a dispersion of particles, by reducing in particle size at least one component by agitating the component in the presence of (i) a plurality of beads; (ii) a powder; (iii) a surfactant; and (iv) a liquid medium to form a dispersion, wherein the particles are uniformly dispersed in the liquid medium. The invention further provides for the use of the dispersion of particles.

The invention provides a method of lubricating an internal combustion engine comprising supplying to said engine a dispersion, the dispersion comprises: (a) a metal base; (b) a surfactant; and (c) an organic medium in which the metal base is uniformly dispersed by physical processes, wherein the metal base has a mean average particle size of at least 10 nanometres to less than 1 μm; and the dispersion has a solids content of greater than 15 wt %. The invention further provides a lubricant composition containing said dispersion.

The invention provides a method of controlling by-products or pollutants from fuel combustion, comprising corn-busting a fuel containing a dispersion, the dispersion comprises: (a) a mixture of at least two metal bases, wherein each metal of the metal bases has an average oxidation state of (+2) or higher, (b) at least one surfactant; and (c) at least one organic medium, wherein the metal bases are uniformly dispersed in the organic medium.
摘要:
The invention provides a water blended fuel composition made by combining (i) a normally liquid hydrocarbon fuel; (ii) water; (iii) a nitrogen-free surfactant; and an acid having a pKa of up to about 6.
摘要:
A fire extinguisher includes a tank and a gas generator breech connected to the tank. The gas generator breech is provided with a hermetically sealed gas generator cartridge. The hermetically sealed gas generator cartridge avoids the need to have a release poppet or burst shims on the gas generator breech. The enclosed space that contains combustion gas pressure is provided by the gas generator cartridge itself and not the gas generator breech. The gas generator cartridge is made from a container that can be the precursor to a beverage can used for carbonated beverages. The beverage can may come in a thickness and material of construction that makes it a suitable, cost-effective container for the gas generator cartridge. However, other containers besides precursors of beverage cans can be used.
