A container for a temperature sensitive product, such as a pharmaceutical compound, includes an inner vessel and an outer shell. When the inner vessel is contained in the outer shell, a chamber adapted to receive a phase change material is defined between an inner vessel wall and an outer shell wall. A container may also include multiple chambers defined by multiple walls, with different phase change materials disposed in different chambers. A cap, such as a child-proof cap, may be used to secure the contents of the container.

A filter cartridge which is environmentally friendly in that it is made up of components which are all incinerateable. The ends of a filter element are sealed using potting compound and plastic endcaps. The upper endcap, which is closed, has a pressure relief aperture associated therewith to prevent bowing. In a plugged filter condition the high-downward pressure introduced on the upper endcap is compensated by providing the cartridge with centering ribs which bottom on an associated ledge in the housing to provide a positive stop for the top endcap, preventing it from being driven down into and through the filter element. Rubber gaskets are associated with the respective endcaps, and are reliably secured to the endcaps by being snap fit into grooves molded into the plastic of the endcaps. The lower endcap utilizes a simple radial seal gasket which is both highly effective and also positioned to avoid structural crushing forces on the cartridge. A keying system prevents the installation of improper filters.

An environmentally friendly dual lube venturi filter cartridge which has no metallic components. A plastic centertube having a venturi section supports a bypass filter element on standoffs molded into the centertube. An outer concentric full flow filter element surrounds the bypass filter. The full flow filter is supported on a plastic centertube which creates a gap between it and the bypass filter. A first bypass filter endcap both seals the bypass filter and provides standoffs for allowing full flow oil around the bypass filter. The standoffs thus split the full flow which progresses through the primary filter in two paths, a primary path around the bypass filter and into the centertube, and a bypass path through the secondary filter and the venturi. Plastic upper and lower endcaps carry grooves for simple sealing gaskets, a radial seal gasket on the bottom which seals against both the endcap which carries it and a flange in the housing, and an axial seal gasket at the top.

A system and method of controlling the treatment of water systems comprises multiple feeders for separately feeding treatment products, in the form of concentrated, non-hazardous, liquids with a single active ingredient, to a water system to treat various issues, such as corrosion and biofilms. A sensor verifies delivery of the treatment product to the water system. A controller controls activation of each feeder to control a feed rate according to programmed functions. The controller receives signals from sensors, which can be used as inputs in calculating feed rates or feeder activation times according to the programed functions and can alter treatment product feed rates based on real time data regarding water system chemistry or flow rates. The controller can send and receive data, signals, alerts, alarms or changes in programming to or from remote users, remote computers, or a water system controller.

This invention relates generally to a synthetic medium for soilless propagation and growth of plants. More specifically, the synthetic medium components are formed in particular shapes and sizes of a polymer foam to optimize the several stages of plant propagation and growth. A method for utilizing these foam components is also disclosed for use in a standard glass house environment. Each step is optimized for a particular type of plant and its individual growth stage. The soilless medium preferred in this invention also allows for a dramatic reduction in scrap material disposal costs and problems as the preferred foam material reverts to powder form when compressed at up to an 80% volume reduction versus the foam state. These powders can be land-filled, recycled as soil additives or incinerated without environmental impact. Trays for handling foam material components and their lids prevent evaporation of moisture and are also reusable and the thermoplastic resins from which they are formed are also recyclable.

A device is provided for foaming and delivery of liquids and includes a housing in which a fluid reservoir having the liquids to be foamed is provided, a propellant reservoir for delivery of a propellant, and a dispensing mechanism for dispensing the foamed liquids. A first part of the propellant can be transported out of the propellant reservoir through a first conduit to the fluid reservoir such that the liquid to be foamed can be conveyed out of the fluid reservoir and introduced into a mixing unit, wherein a second part of the propellant can be introduced directly out of the propellant reservoir into the mixing unit through a second conduit. The liquids conveyed out of the fluid reservoir into the mixing device by the propellant can be foamed.
