A Non-Destructive Quality Control Test for Organic Coatings in Food Can Applications
TS-067800 — This technology is an electrical impedance test (EIT) for evaluating the integrity
of the enamel coating found on the interior surface
of canned foods.
Fruits and vegetables used in canning are picked at peak freshness, ensuring the best flavor and nutrient quality. Because canning preserves nutrients, canned foods can be as nutritious as fresh and frozen foods. The amount of minerals, fat-soluble vitamins, protein, fat, and carbohydrates remains r…

Methods to produce high purity tritium gas
TS-067793 — The technology is a device and method for producing high purity tritium gas by irradiating a lithium composition within a gas cell that selectively allows tritium to diffuse while blocking other byproducts, ensuring efficient and direct collection
of pure tritium without extensive purification. This system is designed to enhance the purity, efficiency, and scalability
of tritium production for various industrial and research applications.
The production of high purity tritium gas is critical for applications in nuclear fusion, radioluminescent devices, and scientific research. Current methods for tritium production often result in contaminants like helium and other gases, requiring additional purification processes that are costly …
