A method for filtering a precipitatable constituent from an extraction solution through a filter apparatus includes pre-cooling at least a portion of the filter apparatus to a reduced temperature that is effective to precipitate the constituent from the extraction solution. At least the cooled portion of the filter apparatus may be thermally conductive to act as a heat sink for the extraction solution being passed through the filter apparatus. The reduced temperature facilitates removal of the precipitatable constituent from the extraction solution.

A hazard detector system, comprising: hazard detectors communicatively connected to computing devices; a geolocation detector; an occupancy detector; a power source; an alert device; a secondary location detector; an interaction device. The hazard detectors may be configured to transmit information related to a plurality of hazardous environmental conditions to and from the computing devices. The alert device may provide a perceptible alert to individuals in proximity to the hazard detectors. The geolocation detector may be configured to identify a geographic location of the hazard detector. The interaction device may provide the individuals in proximity of the hazard detector the ability to provide additional information about the hazardous environmental conditions to the computing devices.

The present invention relates to detectors of hazardous environmental conditions (e.g., smoke, gas, motion). Specifically, the invention relates to a hazard detector configured to transmit and/or receive information related to hazardous environmental conditions based at least in part on the location of the hazard detector as identified through one or more location based service means (e.g., global positioning systems (GPS), cellular triangulation, Internet IP geolocation).

A pick for use with stringed musical instruments is disclosed. In some embodiments the pick is characterized by a roughened texture on the front and back substantially planar surfaces of the narrowed bottom portion of a substantially teardrop shaped body for the purpose of altering the tonal properties produced as it moves against strings that are strummed or picked. In further embodiments the roughened textured picking portion is combined with a separate second picking portion that is substantially smooth and useable to produce a conventional sound.

A composite particulate material useful in analytical separations processes includes a carbon coating deposited through chemical vapor deposition on a substantially metal-free inorganic oxide particle. The resultant laminate material may be tuned for desired sorption rates and selectivities with respect to analytes of interest.

A fluidic processor includes a first sealing member having a first sealing face, a first compressive face and at least one first sealing member fluid conduit; a second sealing member having a second sealing face, a second compressive face and at least one second sealing member fluid conduit; the second sealing face of the second sealing member being sealingly and slidingly engaged in a substantially fluid tight manner with the first sealing face of the first sealing member; and at least one actuator mechanically engaging at least one of the first sealing member and the second sealing member, or an XY stage, or mechanism that provides motion in two axes on one sealing member only.

Fluidic processor and method of use

A method for controlling pervaporation through a membrane includes assessing the vapor pressure of each component material of a mobile phase disposed on a retentate side of the membrane, and maintaining a designed environment on a permeate side of the membrane. The environment maintained on the permeate side of the membrane contains partial pressures of selected component materials of the mobile phase at a level substantially equal to or greater than the respective vapor pressures thereof.

A method for degassing a fluid includes providing a degassing system having a degassing module and a fluid pump apparatus having a fluid reservoir, wherein the fluid pump apparatus is operated in a discontinuous mode involving one or more discrete pumping cycles having a first cycle time. The fluid pump apparatus is calibrated to deliver a predetermined volume of the fluid from the fluid reservoir during each of the pumping cycles, and the degassing module is adapted to operably move gas from the fluid to an extent sufficient to render the fluid volume to a desired degassed condition within a period of time that is not greater than the first cycle time.

A fluid analysis apparatus includes a cell body having a chamber disposed therein for containing fluid during analysis thereof. The chamber is specifically configured to operably and statically secure a radiant energy guiding member solely through surface-to-surface interaction.

System for assembling a fluid analysis apparatus

An apparatus for removing gas bubbles from a fluid includes a fluid inlet and a separation chamber that is in fluid communication with the fluid inlet. The separation chamber has first and second end portions, with the first end portion being operably oriented gravitationally above the second end portion. The apparatus further includes a first gas-permeable, liquid-impermeable membrane disposed in the separation chamber and extending substantially along a first axis defined as extending between the first and second end portions. A permeate side of the membrane is exposed to an environment having a second partial pressure of a target gas, which second partial pressure is lower than a first partial pressure of the gas in the fluid.

Integrated degassing and debubbling apparatus

A fluid analysis apparatus for containing and analyzing a fluid sample includes a cell body assembly having a plurality of distinct portions in fluid communication with one another and with the distinct portions being hydraulically sealed to one another through the use of one or more resilient gaskets interposed between adjacent ones of the plurality of distinct portions of the cell body assembly. The one or more resilient gaskets enable both hydraulic sealing of adjacent distinct portions, as well as fluid coupling and routing through the fluid analysis apparatus.
