Abstract: A process for preparing C2 to C4 hydrocarbons includes introducing a feed stream including hydrogen gas and a carbon-containing gas selected from the group consisting of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and mixtures thereof into a reaction zone of a reactor, and converting the feed stream into a product stream including C2 to C4 hydrocarbons in the reaction zone in the presence of a formed hybrid catalyst. The formed hybrid catalyst includes a metal oxide catalyst component including gallium oxide and zirconia, a microporous catalyst component that is a molecular sieve having 8-MR (Membered Ring) pore openings, and a binder including alumina, zirconia, or both.

Abstract: A hoist system for critical loads incorporates improved safety technology to monitor various possible fault conditions. For example, a command-not-operated function causes braking of the hoist when an encoder detects one of a group of conditions including a lack of load movement when a movement command is issued by the operating system, failure of encoder feedback, or failure of a control circuit. An uncommanded motion function also causes braking of the hoist when an encoder detects one of a group of conditions including load movement without a movement command issued by the operating system, or reverse directional movement of the load from a directional movement command input by the operating system.
