Publication number: 20240109030Abstract: A system and method recover process gas from a source volume at a source pressure to a destination volume at an equal or greater pressure. A regulation process receive the process gas from the source volume and steps down the pressure. Each regulation uses one or more stage each using a pressure control valve for pressure step down and a heat exchanger for reheating the process gas thereafter. A gas scrubber receives the process gas from the regulation stages and collecting liquid from the process gas. A compression process receives the process gas from the gas scrubber and steps up the intermediate pressure to a final pressure. The compression can use one or more compression stages, each having a compression cycle for pressure step up and a heat exchanger for cooling the process gas thereafter. A discharge vessel receives the process gas from the compression process and discharges the process gas at the final pressure to the destination volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Adam Scott Murray, Eric Heinle, Jack A.

Patent number: 11941629Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for providing instructions when receiving biometric data associated with a user. For instance, a device may detect a portion of a user, such as a hand. The device may then display a first graphical element indicating a target location for placing the portion of the user above the user-recognition device. Additionally, the device may determine locations of the portion of the user above the device. The device may then display a second graphical element indicating the locations, such as when the locations are not proximate to the target location. Additionally, the device may display instructions for moving the portion of the user to the target location. Based on detecting that the location of the portion of the user is proximate to the target location, the device may send data representing the portion of the user to a remote system.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Nichole Stockman, Korwin Jon Smith, Douglas Andrew Hungarter, Joshua Adam Cowan, Jared Corso, Rajeev Ranjan, Prithviraj Banerjee, Matthew Christopher Smith
