Abstract:
The embodiments herein provide a system for collecting flare gas and using the same for electricity generation. A flare gas collector assembly is attached inline with a flare stack pipeline. An electric generator comprises a combustion engine and at-least alternator. An intake valve of the combustion engine is connected to a collector tank through an intake pipeline. The at-least one alternator is connected to an output shaft of the combustion engine through a transmission mechanism. The divider circuit is connected to an output node of the alternator. The battery back is connected to the at-least one alternator through the divider circuit followed a filter circuit. The primary pump is connected to the output node of the at-least one alternator through the divider circuit for pumping water from ground to a primary reservoir. The centrifuge receives water from the primary reservoir through wherein the centrifuge separates a water from undissolved solids.

Abstract:
An immersion wand device for immersion into a receptacle containing an aqueous metal halide salt solution includes an elongated housing having a handle at a first end and an immersion head at a second end, at least two iridium-coated electrodes each disposed at a distance from one another within the immersion head, a control module to control application of electricity to cause the electrodes to be oppositely charged, and a sensor in communication with the control module for determining a concentration of free available chlorine in the aqueous metal halide salt solution. The control module controls the application of electricity to the electrodes in a manner to perform electrochemical activation (ECA) of the aqueous metal halide salt solution in the receptacle to create an ECA product solution and wherein the distance between the at least two electrodes is automatically adjustable during ECA in response to a measurement by the sensor.
Abstract:
A water harvesting and purifying system and method for an automobile. The system automatically collects condensed water from a heat-exchanger in an air-conditioning system. the system filters the condensed water and isolates it in a reservoir. the system boils the isolated water to further purify. The water is then useful for drinking for a predetermined time period, after which the water is purged and the process restarted.
Abstract:
A water aeration system encases an air pump and a solar power controller in an encasement structure with one or more air permeable sidewalls. The encasement structure is mounted at or near a top end of a mounting pole. A solar panel is mounted directly or indirectly to the encasement or to the mounting pole at or near the top end of the mounting pole. An air conduit is threaded through a hollow channel in the mounting pole, and then underground and/or under water for joining to an immersed diffuser. The water aeration system operates without a battery or energy accumulator, and is tamper-resistant. The air pump and controller are inside the encasement structure, the solar panel and encasement structure are mounted several feet above the ground surface, and the conduit between the pump and the diffuser is held inside the mounting pole.
Abstract:
Underwater systems for data center cooling and water desalination are provided. Aspects of the systems include a data center subunit and a desalination subunit that are co-located with each other at an underwater location, where the desalination subunit is configured to receive warm water output from the data center. Aspects of the invention also include methods for cooling a data center and desalinating water using underwater systems as described herein.
Abstract:
A system for distributed utilities including electrical power and water. A generation device is provided for converting an available resource to a desired utility; the resource may be water, in which case the generator is a purifier for purifying untreated water, or, alternatively, the generator may convert a fuel to electrical power. In either case, an input sensor is provided for measuring input to the generation device, while an output sensor is provided for measuring consumption of output from the generation device. The monitoring system has a controller for concatenating measured input and consumption of output on the basis of the input and output sensors. Measured parameters are telemetered to a remote site where utility generation and use are monitored and may also be controlled. At least a portion of the electrical power capacity of the electric generation unit may power a water purification unit such as a vapor compression distillation unit, and heat output of the electric generation unit may supply heat to the water purification unit.
