	Thermal fuel transfer and tank isolation to reduce unusable fuel - Patent 5251852
		3, the heaters associated with tank 13 are represented by a resistor symbol 382, and a resistor symbol 384 represents the electrical heaters associated with tank 314.
		The temperature of tank 13 is raised relative to that of tank 11, which tends to increase the pressure in tank 13 relative to that in tank 11, driving the remaining fuel from tank 13 through branch 330, normally-open valve 334, and through branch 328 to tank 11.
		A similar procedure may be performed with tanks 312 and 314, by heating tank 314 by way of heater 384 to drive fuel from tank 314 to 312, and then activating valve 344 to isolate tank 314 from the combination of tank 312 and even mode thrusters 2, 4, 6, and 8.

	Isolation tank - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An isolation tank is (ideally) a lightless, soundproof tank in which subjects float in salty water (denser than the human body) at skin temperature.
		In newer tanks, epsom salt is added to the water in the tank so that the subject floats with his or her face above the water.
		In the episode "Iso Tank" or "Adoption" in the British series Absolutely Fabulous, the isolation tank is satirized by referring to it as a Robin Reliant as well as a warm puddle.

		The isolation tank -- aka sensory deprivation tank, aka flotation tank -- was created back in the 1950s as a government research tool to study the physical origins of consciousness.
		The water in isolation tanks is periodically filtered and sterilized with a mixture of chlorine and hydrogen peroxide, a process that leaves the water cleaner, they say, than your drinking water.
		One truism of the tank experience is that the effect of sensory deprivation on the floater fluctuates in direct proportion to the level of stimulation the floater normally undergoes.

	Evaporative emission control system including a fuel tank isolation valve and a canister vent valve - Patent 6601569
		A fuel tank isolation valve 110 is connected in series between a vapor dome or headspace, i.e., the gaseous portion within the fuel tank 16, and a valve port 12v of the fuel vapor collection canister 12.
		In the case of the pulse-width-modulated signal, at an approximately zero percent duty cycle, the fuel tank isolation valve 110 is in the open position, and at an approximately one hundred percent duty cycle, the fuel tank isolation valve 110 is in the closed position.
		Thus, fuel tank isolation valves 110 and 110' isolate the fuel tank 16, thereby preventing purging directly from the vapor dome of the fuel tank 16.

	The Importance of a Quarantine Tank
		Quarantine tanks should be used by all aquarium owners when introducing new fish to a tank but, unfortunately, less than 5% use them.
		Quarantine tanks allow the infected fish to be safely treated without damaging fragile species or water quality in the display tank.
		Another use of quarantine tanks is to provide a breeding area for fish, a recovery area for harassed fish, and a place to allow newly hatched fish to safely grow.

		The origins of the floatation tank started in 1954 when Dr. John C. Lilly, a medical practitioner and neuro-psychiatrist was training in psychoanalaysis and started to do research regarding the origin of consciousness and its relation to the brain.
		The main reason why the Flotation Tank helps these conditions is due to the fact that the logical/rational mind is allowed to relax and is by-passed enabling the right brain activity of creativity and intuition to emerge to more conscious levels of understanding.
		Floatation tanks are very useful in these cases since the deep relaxation attained by patients releases negative stress, helps chronic pain and depression giving a natural boost to the immulological system both at the cellular and humoral level.

		The pleasures and perks of the modern float tank are based on a revolutionary scientific approach to deep relaxation called Restricted Environmental Stimulation Technique or R.E.S.T. for short, first developed back in 1954 by researchers at the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) in Washington.
		The tank does not inhibit the left hemisphere, but simply changes its role from one of dominance to one of partnership with the other hemisphere, enabling floaters to use all their mental powers.
		Where a float tank has been installed in a private home, owners have more freedom to determine the length of float session that suits their individual preferences or needs.

		A quarantine tank does not need to be an elaborate set up; a 10-gallon tank with a heater, some PVC pipe for hiding places, and a sponge filter with an air pump are all that is necessary.
		I recommend an isolation period of three weeks, but it can be shortened with some risk to two weeks if the Mandarin fish is not getting enough to eat.
