Prior Art Background of the Invention Many systems require one or more input containers and one or more output containers for operation. For example, chemical procedures and electrochemical procedures typically have one or more input substances from respective containers and one or more output substances from respective containers. Chemical orderings (such as organic and inorganic chemical synthesis, power generation reactions, material synthesis, biological reactions, etc.) all require the use of one or more input materials that are negative and produce one or more output materials. For example, a biological response is usually a procedure in which an organism acts on an input substance and converts it into a different output substance. For example, wastewater treatment often uses aerobic and anaerobic bacteria to remove pollutants from waste water, which facilitates removal by precipitating waste species. The synthesis of many chemicals (including organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals, and different combinations thereof) often involves placing one or more substances in a reactor to form the desired output substance or product. In most cases, this will also form by-products. The system provides a container or other compartment 1 for each input substance, each product, and any by-products formed (if required). As a result, the total area space required to store the system may increase with different containers or other containers. Container 6 1226720 when the program has not yet started, invention description (such as output container) will be empty, or when the program is completed, the container for the input substance will be empty, so that the space is essentially wasted Dropped. One of the two systems will make the input substances in the container_generating part of the knife, and at least a part of the force can transport these substances to the reaction state. As the volume of the container decreases, the pressure of the substance leaving the container decreases. A power generation program usually converts one or more substances into a by-product, with the same% producing usable energy. Typical electrochemical systems include fuel cells, such as metal-air fuel cells, smoke-based fuel cells (such as fuel cells based on proton-exchange membranes), and solid oxide fuel cells. A variety of biological processes will additionally generate usable energy, and this linker's uses substances based on enzymes and glucose as fuel. Furthermore, many well-known battery systems essentially include fuel cells, so the supply of fuel will be limited. In particular, some batteries will use fluid anode electrolytes and catholytes. Metal-air fuel cells are based on the electrochemical conversion of a metal (such as zinc or lithium) into an oxide of that metal in the presence of air and a corrosive electrolyte. A variety of metal-air fuel cell systems are described, for example, in US Patent Application No. 09 / 578,798, asserted by Fads et al. (Co-reviewed and co-assigned) on May 12, 2000. 'Published as " Fuel Separation Vessel and Recycling System.' Solid fuel cells are typically based on hydrocarbon fuels, such as methanol and water. These fuels are consumed to produce electricity and water as a by-product. The fuel is typically provided as a mixture, and the by-product 1226720, the invention description can be discharged or stored. Storing the by-product in a separate container will be used in many applications (such as automotive applications) due to two restrictions. It is not practical. Many applications reintroduce by-products into the fuel mixture. However, this will dilute the fuel mixture and reduce the fuel efficiency of the fuel cell operation. 5 Another hydrogen-based fuel cell uses, for example, boron A hydrogen source of sodium hydride. This battery is disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. Patent case No. 5,8〇4,329 (publication name ,, ,, battery electric conversion) in. Here, sodium borohydride is usually mixed with water to release hydrogen that can be converted into useful energy, and produces sodium borooxide as a by-product. Another type of electrochemical device is a redox battery, in which a metal and a halide are respectively provided as an anode electrolyte and a cathode electrolyte, and react in the presence of an electrolyte to generate electricity. Traditionally, the anolyte and / or catholyte will be fed in succession, or will be operated in batches that are diluted throughout the entire electrochemical reaction process. Many of the previously mentioned systems and many others must use several cereals occupying individual volumes to separate different substances. Other systems that do not require a separate volume of process material will sacrifice efficiency because they reduce the concentration of the reactant material. ~ 20 The systems that have been described that can be used to solve the previously mentioned problems (especially metal air-rolled fuel cells) fully reveal the United States (co-reviewed and co-assigned) claimed on May 12, 2000 Patent application serial number 09 / 570,598, published as "Fuel Separation Container and Recycling System," the entire text of which is incorporated herein by reference X. Although the aforementioned patent claims claim-a kind covering ^ 1226720 玖, invention The description will be further advanced to the system and system described in this article. This announcement provides more specific embodiments that fall within the scope of these patent applications and other specific embodiments. [Summary of Contents 3 5 Summary of the Invention Other problems and deficiencies of the discussed and previously described techniques can be overcome or alleviated by several methods and devices of the present invention. The container provided by the present invention includes a part-assembled to contain a first substance and a container-equipped to contain a second substance. Part 2. The first substance is applied to the process and is usually used to make useful by-products. Furthermore, the second substance can be a useful by-product of the process or can be Different by-products of the procedure. 15 In general, the main advantage of m is that the first substance and the second substance can be stored in a volume that is preferably the same as the larger volume of the first substance or the second substance.

[Embodiment 3 10 1226720 The detailed description of the preferred embodiment of the invention is disclosed in this document. It does not disclose a container containing several substances (especially input substances and output substances). Among them, the name, input and output, , Usually related to related procedures. The container includes a first part that is configured to contain the first substance 5 ^ assembled to contain the second part of the second substance. The first-substance is applied to the private sequence and is usually used for production Useful by-products. Furthermore, the second substance can be a useful by-product, or it can be a different by-product of the process. «Haiyun sequence can include multiple operations. Generally speaking, one or more input substances can be Perform any required program steps to produce one or more rounds of shellfish. For example, the program can be used to convert a gas to a liquid or a condensate or a liquefier. In addition, the The procedure may be a transport step, such as a pump. In this method, the process may provide for the discharge of one or more fluids into one or more portions of the container. Furthermore, the procedure may be a separation A procedure, such as a crystallization operation or a distillation operation. In this method, the private sequence may have additional input and / or output witches or it may not be included in the container. The procedure may additionally include a compaction A device for pressing a solid or solid / liquid mixture to further manage the volume. The container has a total volume that can be contoured by one or more hard or elastic side walls. The container includes a container for containing a first The first part 20 of the substance and the second part for containing the second substance. The volume of the first, second, or both the first and second parts is variable, so that the first part and the second part can be installed in The total volume. In a specific embodiment, the volume of the first part and the volume of the second part can be changed in reverse. In another specific embodiment, the first part and the second part can be separated by a movable barrier 1226720 发明, description of the invention. The barrier can be moved by external force (such as human or mechanical force), and the hair can be controlled. The barrier can be activated by electricity, chemical light, etc. The structure can also be, for example, a suitable material bag, which can expand and contract, and is inert and chemically stable with the substance to be contained. Furthermore, the barrier itself may include a body or solid in a container. A procedure, such as allowing flow, to flow between parts. For example, electrolyte membranes, electrodes, permeable membranes, filters, or other structures or materials may be included in or on the barrier to convert a substance from one part to another The substance may be contained in other parts and may be in a different state. The container described in this article is composed of Sadeg M. Fanis, Tsepin Tsai, Wayne Yaya, and U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 09 / 570,798 claimed by Yuen-Ming Chang on May 12, 2000 (published as "Fuel Separation Vessel 15 and Recirculation System", the full text of which is for reference Ways are incorporated herein) similar to those described. Various typical container structures are illustrated diagrammatically in Figures 7-8 and 7B, 8A and 8B, 9A and 9B, and 10A and 10B. Figure 7A shows a container 7110 having a first portion 712 and a removable barrier 716 (e.g., an assist structure 722 (which may include 20 a screw, a linear drive, or the like) can be used to Mobile) separating the second part 714. Figure 7B shows a larger container 710 of the second section 714 (due to the movement of the barrier 716). Figure 8A shows a container 810 having a first portion 812 and a removable process barrier 824 (for example, an assist structure 822 can be used (which can be 12 1226720), the description of the invention includes a screw, a linear drive Or the like) to move) separate first part 814. Figure 8B shows the container 81 of the second portion 814 which is larger (due to the movement of the barrier 816). In container 81, a related procedure (the example of which is further described herein) can change the substance from a part 5 to a different substance or a different state, and it can also be provided as a barrier to maintain a separate partition container . Figure 9A shows a container 910 having a second portion 914 and a first portion 912. The volume of the first portion 912 can be determined by the space between the inner wall of the container 910 and the outer wall of the second portion 914. Figure 9B shows that the second part 10 914 has a larger volume (due to the substance) of the container 910, so the volume of the part 912 will decrease. 15 20 图 Figure 10A shows a container 1010 having a first portion 1012 and a second portion 1014, and their volume in the container 1010 has an opposite relationship. Fig. 10B shows that the volume of the first portion 1 () 14 is larger (due to the substance) in the container 1010, so the volume of the portion 1014 will be reduced. # The substances in the first and second parts may be the same or different. For example, in a system in which the fourth knife has the same substance as the second substance, the quality of the first part can be controlled to be supplied to one or more batch procedures such as a plant. Other sources (or the third part in the container) can provide a carrier material for use in this procedure. The carrier material will then be stored in the second part after the batch operation is completed. For the time being, Chuan Shi, combining these things :, in other procedures, the first substance and the second substance may be completely different. In addition, the second substance can be used to generate a second substance by using this procedure, for example, 13 1226720. Description of the invention For example, the first substance can be temporarily changed from the process of the second substance to the second substance. It should be noted that early independence (for example, electricity, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, temperature, pressure, etc.) may be temporarily changed to seven, or may be stored or imported with another substance through another part, or may be Modified for mixing and reacting from a source external to the container; or process and modifying in combination with another substance. The substances used in the different sections can be any desired substances and can be in different combinations. Xi Sheng, Xi Di, a substance can include any material that can be used in the complex structure of solid, & gas phase or a combination of these phases. Similarly, the twelfth substance may include a solid, liquid, gas phase, or a combination of phases of any material produced by the procedure. Therefore, the one-substance / second-substance combination of the guest brother is shown in Table 1: The first part of the composition-the second part of the composition gas-liquid-gas-solid-liquid-liquid-solid-solid-gas XXXX ------ XXX Gas-Liquid XXXXX Gas-Solid XXXXXX Liquid XXXXXX Liquid · Solid XXXXXXXXX Solid xx X --- Illustrative specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. For clarity of description, similar features shown in the figures are indicated by similar reference numerals, and similar features shown in another specific embodiment are also indicated by similar reference numerals. 14 1226720 (ii) Description of the invention The chamber system 100 will now be described with reference to FIG. 1 of a schematic system 100 of a container incorporated herein. The system 100 includes a capacity 110 having a first portion 1 2 and a second portion 114. The first substance (or an input substance in this embodiment) is contained in section 112. The first substance is supplied to or received in the procedure 12 (which may be a separate physical structure, a phenomenon in which the first substance is present in the first portion 112 (hereinafter referred to as a retention phenomenon), or a combination thereof). Therefore, the program 120 is indicated by a dotted line to indicate that the program 120 may actually be a separate structure, integrated in a container, or a dwell phenomenon. This procedure produces a second substance (or product) (which is contained in the second portion 114 of the container 110). This procedure 120 can produce one or more different by-products such as electricity, heat, chemical, mechanical or light. During operation of procedure 120, at least a certain amount of the first substance (in section 112) will be consumed or transported, and at least a portion will be converted into a second substance. Subtilities are contained in the second section 114. Additional substances (not shown) can be pushed into Procedure 120. When the second substance is produced, it is guided to the second part 114 of the container. The barrier 116 separates the first portion 112 from the second portion η *. At the beginning of procedure 12G operation, the volume of portion 114 may be minimized (i.e., may be approached or reached zero) by operating barrier 116. During operation, when the 201st substance is consumed and the second substance is generated, the barrier 116 can be moved (for example, by mechanical equipment, expansion, etc.), so that the available for the second substance can be generated in section 114 volume of. In addition, in addition to the barrier ii6 (or, for example, connected to a container having more than two compartments), the first part ii2 and the second part 114 may be individual containers in a container (for example, expandable and Close 15 ^ 26720 玖, the description of the invention is reduced to adjust the volume change).丨 Women in the system 'If there are no additional substances introduced into the program 120, the valley of 0 can be used throughout the operation of the program 120 to be equal to the larger volume of the input substance or the output substance. The second embodiment is also a specific embodiment 10. In a specific embodiment of a system that generally follows the schematic system 100, the program 120 includes an electrochemical cell, such as a metal-air battery. The first substance fed to the battery in a continuous or human sequence contains the fuel, such as a metal paste containing an electrolyte. After the metal-air battery is operated, the metal fuel is converted into a metal oxide and stored in the portion 114 of the container 110 as a second substance. The metal oxide can be stored in a batch or continuous manner. A useful by-product of this metal-air battery is electricity, which can be controlled for external use (not shown). The right program 120 includes an electrochemical cell (such as a metal-air battery), and the 15 U can be a type suitable for, for example, a laptop computer, a cellular phone, a power tool, other hand-held devices, a small transport device (such as Scooters) and more. Furthermore, the container 110 may be integrated with a system such as a garden, water storage or gas tank. Additionally, the container 110 can be integrated into an in-situ power generation system. 4 Metal oxides can be recharged by applying a current to them. In a rechargeable system, after the material is recharged (ie, the material is still in it or returned to its respective section 112 or 114), further discharge is performed via the "second substance" from section 114 as The metal-air battery fuel, in which the metal oxide formed from the procedure 120 can be stored in the first part ιΐ2 16 1226720 bar, invention description

A first substance (in this example 5 is methanol or a combination of methanol and water) is contained in the first portion 112. During operation of the fuel cell (usually continuous operation), the output (mainly water) from the fuel cell is stored in the second part 114 of the container 110 as the second substance. In this way, the effluent (which has typically been contaminated to some degree) is stored rather than discharged to the environment, while maintaining the volume tube. Furthermore, during operation of the fuel cell, methanol or a mixture of methanol and water will be present in the first part at a fixed concentration. The additional reactant added to the direct methanol fuel cell system is oxygen (usually provided by air), and a useful by-product of the direct methanol fuel system is electricity. The third embodiment of a thunder chemical cell 15 An additional embodiment of a system that generally follows the schematic system 100 includes a procedure 120 including a redox fuel cell. The first substance provided to the battery from the first portion 112 includes an anolyte (for example, a zinc solution after operation of the procedure 120 (ie, operation of a redox battery), the anolyte will react with the catholyte in the presence of the electrolyte. At the anode Part of the zinc in the electrolytic solution 20 is converted into zinc oxide and exists in the solution. The consumed anolyte is stored in the second part 114 as the second substance. In another example of a redox battery, the cathode is electrolyzed The liquid may contain the first substance, such as a bromine solution. After the operation of the redox battery, bromine is usually converted into bromide ions and stored in the second part 114 as the second substance 17 1226720. The invention is illustrative. The specific implementation of the pool will follow: generally follow the schematic system, the other of the system-a specific implementation + a program that incorporates a bioelectrochemical program 120. Typical biological _ electrochemical program uses-oxidizable organic compounds as fuel. It is also typical to provide different enzymes to improve the electrochemical reaction. The oxidizable organic :: includes carbohydrates (such as sugar . Many "needs a pure or qualitatively pure by-product of glucose ri.", Or to prevent the production of energy that cannot be converted into energy 10 15 20 Therefore, the substance containing grape 2 in the bio-electrochemical cell system provided herein can provide In Part 112, a variety of mechanical devices can be used to collect glucose-containing substances (for example, grass). For example, a grader blade or a mechanical device can cut and feed the glucose-containing substance, which will then be stored in the One part 112 is consumed by the bioelectrochemical process 120: As for the waste (or the heat consumed by the first substance) generated from the bio-electrochemical process 120, it can be stored in the second part of the container 110. Γ A useful example of using this bio-electrochemical battery system is a kind of self-fueling device that can secretly (or cut) grass. When the grass is consumed, the glucose from the grass can provide electricity and make itself Fueled shocks can move and continuously cut grass, and further control any provided system electrical injuries. The waste can be stored in section 114 as a second item Because the fuel can be stored in the material 112 and can be directly powered by the material 12 (); Xiao consumption, the system can power itself, even in the absence of grass or other areas containing glucose substances. When the portion 114 is filled and When the volume of the remaining portion 112 is smaller than 18 1226720 玖, the description of the invention is still less, the portion 1H can be emptied at the mixture stack. Return to the first procedure of the Qi Qi and the embodiment is in the other of the system 100- In a specific embodiment, the first portion 112 of the container contains a decomposable substance, such as a biochemical. Here, the procedure 5 120 may include a dwell phenomenon or a separate or integrated effective procedure such as heating and / or addition? The second substance may include a courtyard (—a gaseous byproduct of the decomposition of biochemicals). Therefore, this torrefaction can be collected in the second part 114 (which is an expandable collection container in the container 110 ′ or a container 11 (0), and is separated from the first portion 112 by a barrier 116). For example, it may contain -10 non-return valves (for example, ‘a certain gas pressure is required to open in one direction) to allow A hospital to enter from the first part to the second part, but not from the second part to the first part. Another specific embodiment of the second procedure of the sacral sinusoidal system 1 15 20 system 100 includes an oil procedure, such as refining a crude oil into different points and / or derivatives. For example, the crude oil may be maintained in the -part 112 of the vessel 110. Procedure 12 () may include steam cooking, cracking, or a combination thereof. After the procedure, the product (eg, gasoline) can be stored in the second U12. Therefore, the volume of the first portion 112 decreases when the crude oil is subjected to the procedure from the first portion 112. Therefore, the volume of the second portion 114 increases when gasoline is generated and stored in the second portion 114. Another specific embodiment of the third sequence system 100 includes a water program, such as water purification for water supply or wastewater purification. For example, the water to be purified may be maintained in the first portion 112 of the container 110. The program 120 may include one or more 19,226,720, invention description, and one water treatment program step. In Procedure I, the product (e.g., purified or partially purified water) may be stored in the second portion 112. Therefore, when the water is processed from the first shirt to the second shirt, the accumulation of the portion 112 will be reduced. ^ This * when the purified or partially purified water is produced and stored in the second part 5 U4, the volume of the second part 114 increases. Duplex System 200 / Referring to Figures 2 to 2, another schematic system of a container incorporated herein is described. The system 200 includes a container 2H) having a first portion 212 and a second portion n *). Item -f is included in section 212, which may provide 10 to program 220 in a controlled manner. The program 220 may generate a second substance and include it in the second part 214. This procedure 220 may produce one or more different by-products such as electricity, heat, chemistry, machinery, light, or a combination thereof. Prior to being introduced into the second section 214, the second substance (typically from the program 220) undergoes a process 224. The process 224 may transport a second substance, change certain properties of the 15th substance, such as chemical or physical properties, or a combination thereof. For example, the process 224 may include a reactor coupled to a pump. Furthermore, the process 224 may include a physical process, such as coagulating the material or separating the material. First Combustion Paste Example of Compound Chamber System 200 In a specific embodiment of a system that generally follows the schematic system 200, the procedure 20 sequence 220 includes a combustion engine, the first substance contains fuel for the compression engine ( Such as gasoline), and a useful byproduct is the mechanical energy of the engine. When gasoline is consumed, carbon dioxide and other waste products are emitted from the engine. These waste products can be provided to a process 224, such as a condenser, which typically converts larger volumes of waste gases into smaller volumes or even liquids. Then 20 1226720 发明, description of the invention ′ This treated waste is transported to the second part 214 of the container 210. In this method, the combustion engine can be operated with substantially zero pollution emissions. All or part of the waste may be stored in the second portion 214 (which may be provided, for example, as a bag or other collection device, in a tank similar to the conventional fuel 5 tank). As the second substance (or combustion engine waste) increases, the volume of the second portion 214 increases, while the volume of the first portion 212 (which is assembled to hold fuel for the combustion engine, such as gasoline) decreases accordingly. The combustion system for containing gasoline and waste products may be further equipped with an emptying device connected to the second section 214. The emptying device can be operated to remove the waste product. Furthermore, the evacuation device may be connected to an indicator to indicate when the portion 214 is at its maximum capacity. The evacuation system can be operated manually or automatically. This evacuation system can be used, for example, via the port closest to the fuel tank input. In this method, the container 21 can be filled with a fuel to fill 212, and at the same time or subsequently removed by removal from the portion 214 (eg, 15 such as a suitable adapter connected to a conventional vacuum device) The product is emptied. The second specific embodiment of the it system uses the same principle as the fuel tank for a combustion engine.

Menictas, et al., Battery Development Laboratory, Vanadium Battery Development Laboratory, School of Chemical Engineering and Industrial Chemistry, New South Wales University of New South Wales, NSW2033, PO Box 1 Kensington NSW2033, (http-//www.ceic.unsw.edu.au/centere/vrb/ eec94a.htm) ° Multi-chamber system 400 Referring now to Figure 4, the system 400 is provided with a container 410 linked to a program 420. The container 410 has a first part 412 for containing a first substance (of which 15 is usually input to the program 420), and a second part 414 containing a second substance (which is usually the output or discharge of the program 420). Additionally, source 422 provides an additional input substance to process 420. Additional input material from source 422: may become part of the output material contained in the second part 414; may be converted into some useful by-products (eg, electricity, 20 heat, chemical, mechanical or light); may be separately Removed from program 320; or a combination thereof. Specific Embodiments of the Electrochemical Cells of the Double Chamber System 400 In a specific embodiment of a system generally following the schematic system 400, the procedure 420 includes a hydrogen-based fuel cell. The first substance contains hydrogen 23 1226720, a source of invention description, which can be released after the reaction in the presence of a catalyst (which is provided from source 422). For example, this source of hydrogen may be sodium borohydride (NaBH4)). Sodium borohydride can be provided in solution with water as the first substance. After the reaction in the presence of a catalyst, hydrogen will be released from sodium borohydride and consumed by the fuel cell to generate electricity, 5 and sodium naphthalate (NaB〇2) will be produced as a by-product. This by-product (which may be in solution with water) is contained in the second portion 412 of the container 410. Multi-compartment system 500 Now, referring to FIG. 5, a system 500 using a container 5jo linked to a program 52o will be described. The container 510 contains the first portion 10 512 with a first substance and the second portion 513 with a second substance, both of which typically provide an input substance to the procedure 520. The first and second input substances may be released to program 52 at different rates and intervals (which may be the same or different from each other). The output of the program 52 (the third substance) is provided to the portion 514 of the container 51. The first step of the compound chamber system ^ 0 concrete embodiment 15 The specific embodiment of the system generally following the schematic system 500 is a chemical synthesis procedure. The first reactant and the second reactant each include a first substance and a first substance. The process 520 includes a reactor, and a product (or a third substance) is formed when the first and second reactants are introduced into the reactor. In this method, a single container can be used to store multiple reactants and a single product. Furthermore, the reactor can produce other products. Such other products may be contained in additional portions (not shown) of the container 510 or may be stored separately. Furthermore, these additional products may be by-products included in the system, respectively. Likewise, the third substance may contain a useful by-product, which may then be released from the portion 414 for further processing. 24 1226720 (ii) Description of the invention Second procedure of embolization Specific sinus embodiment Specific embodiments of the chemical synthesis using the system 500 include a water vapor transfer reaction. In a typical water-gas shift reaction, carbon monoxide reacts with water to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Therefore, in the system 500, the first portion 512 5 os osmium oxide and the second portion 513 contain water. In order to form carbon dioxide and wind, the components of the first portion 512 and the second portion 513 are fed to the procedure 52. Process 520 is typically at high temperature and on one or more catalysts. The resulting mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen is then stored in a third section 514. Therefore, when the reactants (carbon monoxide and water) form products (carbon dioxide and hydrogen dioxide), the volume of the container 510 can be kept constant, because the portions 512 and 513 shrink and the portions 514 expand. The third procedure specifically applies you. In another embodiment of the system using the general scheme system 500, the useful by-product may be light, where the procedure 520 includes a mixture of 15 the first and The second substance is used in a transparent mixing chamber. The first and second substances are chemical substances that generate light when they are combined. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,859,369 (' ' 369 Patent ') (herein incorporated by reference) describes the use of water-soluble polymers in aqueous chemiluminescent formulations. In the '3 patent, 4,4, -ethylenedifluorene bis [(trifluoromethylfluorenyl) imino] ethylene]] bis [cardio 2oxomorpholine trifluoromethane • sulfonic acid Acid salt] (referred to as METQ) is mixed with poly (vinylpyrrolidone) and a fluorescein quaternary sulfonate. An aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution is then added to produce a bioluminescent material when mixed. It should be noted that any or all of the reactants may be stored in the container 500 as the first substance and the second substance, or have an additional portion for containing more than two kinds of reactants. 25 1226720 Similar to a container. The produced biological material (e.g., 'as described in Figure 5) is stored in the portion 514 of the container 510 as a third substance. To provide continuous light ' the reactants (e.g., stored as first and second substances) may be released from the container (e.g., first and second portions 5i2, 5i3). In this method, a single container containing all or part of the reactants and products can be used to provide a continuous light source. Actinic double-drawing This light-emitting system easily and suitably provides thermal energy, such as when chemical reactions are used in different heat and cold packages, whereby the chemicals can be mixed to provide a hot or cold temperature. Again, a continuous procedure can be implemented, whereby extended useful Tian 1J product production times can coexist with safe and convenient storage of reaction products for recycling or suitable processing. The system 600 is now described with reference to FIG. 6. The system 600 includes a container 610 that can be input to program 620, whereby the program 62 can output several substances. The input substance is contained in part 612, and the output substance is contained in parts 614, 615. The first AUjf embodiment of the complex plug system 600 A specific embodiment of the system generally following the diagram system 600 is a hydropower solution. The input substance (water to be electrolyzed) is contained in a portion 612. The water will undergo an electrolysis procedure 62, where it will be split into the output materials hydrogen and oxygen 'and contained in sections 614, 615, respectively. Embodiments of the complex system 600 Another specific embodiment of the system 600 is a deionization procedure, such as 26, 1226720, and invention description. Sea water is stored in the cabin 612. The reactor 620 can be any technique well known in the art. For example, reverse osmosis, electrodialysis, or one or more fluids flowing through the reservoir may comprise the process / reactor 620. These procedures produce concentrated brine and fresh water. The concentrated water can be collected in test 615 and the fresh water can be stored in compartment 614. The third sequence is specific to you, and the system 6 0 0 can be applied to the compact test-chlorine generation program. The brine may be stored in the compartment 612. The reactor 620 may include an electrochemical cell containing two electrodes. On one electrode, gas is generated and stored in compartment 615. 10 The remaining liquid above is NaOH, which can be stored in compartment 614. The main benefit from the system described in this article is volume management. Generally speaking, the volume of the 'monolithic storage container' can hold the largest volume for the input substance or the output substance. Although the preferred embodiments have been shown and described, different modifications and substitutions can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, it should be understood that the present invention has been described by way of illustration, but is not limited thereto.
