20070017820, Jan 25, 2007

Filed:

Mar 29, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/391477

Inventors:

David Anderson - Bryn Mawr PA, US
Fred Pfleger - Voorhees NJ, US
Paul Eachus - Pittsgrove Township NJ, US
Michelle Porcelli - Washington Township NJ, US

International Classification:

C02F 1/461
A61L 9/00

US Classification:

205701000, 422029000

Abstract:

The present invention provides a biocidal solution having a pH of from 5 to 7 and an available free chlorine content of from 500 to 1000 ppm when produced by an electrolytic cell. Also provided is a method of producing a biocidal solution in an electrolytic cell, the method including supplying to the cell a solution with a sat concentration of 2.0 to 5.0 g/L such that the solution passes through an anode chamber at a flow rate per anode surface area of 1.25×103 to 2.75×103 L hr′m-z and applying current to the cell sufficient to produce a biocidal solution with an available free chlorine content of 500 to 1000 ppm and a pH of from 5 to 7.

International Classification:

B65B 5700

US Classification:

53 53

Abstract:

High speed system and mechanism for selecting a vial or vials from a series line of vials driven in a given spaced relationship into a capping and sealing mechanism, wherein detection signals are taken in a seal force monitor according to preset criteriae such as bottle configuration and efficiency of capping and sealing, and a vial acceptance or rejection device is operatively tied in to the seal force monitor on a screw feed mechanism, the vials being advanced by a screw feed mechanism into pockets in rotating starwheels, gripper fingers are positioned in conjunction with the starwheel and operable by cam means selectively operated by a signal from the monitor to indicate that a specific vial is to be rejected, the gripper fingers being designed to snap around and hold the vial as long as required, a secondary cam being used to drive the gripper fingers back to a normal inoperative position and/or to release a selected vial to be rejected and deposited into a special path, the secondary cam being further designed and used to include a short movement of the gripper fingers for assuring release of non-selected vials into a selected path for ultimate subsequent disposition.

US Classification:

205/701000, 205/742000, 205/746000, 204/263000

Abstract:

A biocidal solution is provided having a pH of from 5 to 7 and an available free chlorine content of from 500 to 1,000 ppm. A method is also provided for producing the biocidal solution in an electrolytic cell or cells having anode and cathode chambers which produce respective anolyte and catholyte solutions, wherein the biocidal activity of the biocidal solution is conferred on the solution primarily in the anode chamber. The method includes the steps of supplying the cell or cells with a solution having a salt concentration of 2.0 to 5.0 g/L, such that the solution passes through the anode chamber at a flow rate per anode surface area of 1.25×10to 2.75×10L hrm, and applying current to the cell or cells sufficient to produce a biocidal solution having the above free chlorine content and pH.
