Title: Innovations by Jimmie A Chittenden
Introduction
Jimmie A Chittenden is an accomplished inventor based in Amarillo, TX (US). He holds 2 patents that showcase his innovative approaches to solving practical problems in the field of animal processing and wastewater treatment.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a method for washing animal carcasses. This invention involves creating a cleansing solution by injecting a pressurized gas into a liquid, which is then subjected to high shear forces to divide the gas into small bubbles. The gas is pressurized to dissolve a significant portion of the bubbles in the liquid. When the cleansing solution is depressurized and applied to an animal carcass, the dissolved gas emerges as bubbles. These bubbles effectively lift contaminants from the carcass surface by migrating outwardly to the air-liquid interface.
Another notable patent is the flotation method and apparatus. This invention involves injecting aerated liquid into contaminated wastewater, producing minute bubbles that ascend slowly and attach to contaminants, buoying them to the liquid surface. To ensure an intimate mix of the aerated liquid and wastewater, the aerated liquid is injected through opposed mutually confronting openings. The streams emerging from these openings collide, creating an area of high turbulence that enhances the mixing process.
