Silica Exposure Safety: Mini-baghouse Systems and Methods for Controlling Particulate Release from Large Sand Transfer Equipment
CDC/NIOSH scientists have developed an effective point-source control for silica-containing dusts that can be generated from machinery on sites where hydraulic fracturing is occurring. The CDC/NIOSH mini-baghouse retrofit assembly is a bolt-on control designed to contain silica-containing respirable dusts generated during refill operations of sand...

Precision Herbicide Applicator for Efficient Weed Control
Limits Amount of Herbicide Applied in Plasticulture Vegetable Production This device attaches to a standard plasticulture hole punch and applies herbicide only to the soil beneath the punched holes in plastic mulch, significantly reducing herbicide usage in vegetable production. Farmers often cover soil beds with plastic mulch to improve their control...

Healthy Hands Network: A method and system to occupy a subject while ensuring accordance with specific protocols for hand hygiene
Over 700,000 Americans each year are affected by infections acquired from health care providers or settings, and over 75,000 die from these incidents. The CDC estimates that there is at least one in 25 patients with a healthcare-acquired infection every day. Research shows proper hand washing procedure could lower these numbers. Nonetheless, many healthcare...

A Versatile Self-Sustaining Method and Device for Fuel/Power Generation by Sequential Gasification and "Clean Combustion" of Waste Products
Method and device for fuel and power generation by clean combustion of organic waste materials. Institute Reference: INV-1108 Background Fossil fuel resources are finite, and are widely expected to dwindle in the not too distant future. As these resources become more scarce, the costs of extracting fuel have been on the rise and it has become more...
