The innovative air filter is a replacement product for the existing paper filters that can be manufactured and retrofitted on automobiles and diesel locomotives. The air filter media is comprised of a blend of 7 types of microfibers, dipped in a proprietary chemical solution. The air is provided to the engine with accelerated draft,
Especially for new population it is ideal to have a database with all medical information from its birth.
Formed from ceramic tiles imbibe solar-thermal energy in full-spectrum! Coupled with a heat-fed dynamo the panel acts like a DC battery which may be connected series or parallel. In addition, in AC mode the central A plate synchronizes all the other plates.

Trying to test concentration of oil in gas (gasoline) in my handheld leaf blower, I couldn't find any shop in my province who was able to do that.
My design is for zero gravity environment for tackling situation by astronauts boots. Boots design has three different levels of attraction with surface of iron spaceship. Design from upper side top is suggest partially attraction in surface that not mean to walk or move freely. Second,
In space there is zero gravitational force and because of that astronauts cannot make fix to stay or stand on exact position compared to a gravity environment.
I want to suggest that this magnetic glove is not fully magnet as magnets attract iron on earth but magnetic glove use to stable body,
AUTOMATICALLY SMART GATES FOR STORM WATER INLETS WITH ELECTRONIC MAINTENANCE
New Innovation to improve Infrastructure Maintenance and Operation by creating smart gates for storm water inlets that are sensitive to rain (open and close) automatically when required to restrict sand from flooding these inlets during or before rain.
The (Hover Xplorer-1) VTOL Design Has Been Upgraded By Utilizing A New Form Of "Centrifugal Inertial Propulsion System" Which Will Eliminate All Flight Mode Wind Turbulence Including Air Dust And Water Turbulence During Take Off & Landing.

Anesthesia is a major drug that takes part in almost all kinds of major surgey. Anesthesia is administered to a patient by taking a few body parameters into account. This is usually done by an anesthetist where one manually analyzes these parameters and calculates the dosage. In this way the probability of error is usually high.
ADDS (At Depth DeSalinization)
Placing the salt water reverse osmosis (swro) collector on the sea floor, at depths of 1,500 to 2,000’ seems to have some distinct advantages over onshore installations.
-energy efficient since only processed water is pumped, reducing energy consumption. Gravity provides the water pressure necessary to run the reverse osmosis process.
