  • Publication number: 20210370607
    Abstract: According to some aspects, a system for identifying a printed object is provided. The system may include an imaging device configured to image a three-dimensional (3D) printed object and a processor coupled to the imaging device. The processor may be configured to receive information generated as a result of imaging the 3D printed object with the imaging device, identify a set of features for the 3D printed object using the received information, compare the set of features with multiple reference sets of features, each of the multiple reference sets of features being associated with a respective 3D object in a plurality of 3D objects, and identify, based at least in part on results of the comparison, a 3D object from the plurality of 3D objects that matches the 3D printed object.

  • Patent number: 10352034
    Abstract: A building technique uses standard shipping containers as buttresses to support a truss system that may extend between the shipping containers to provide a roof. A sliding connector system attaches the trusses to the shipping containers to accommodate variations in separation of the shipping containers presenting a versatile framing system that is insensitive to site-related variations.

  • Patent number: 6080302
    Abstract: A method for producing a process oil is provided in which an aromatic extract oil is added to a paraffinic rich feed to provide a blended feed. The blended feed is then extracted with an aromatic extraction solvent to yield a raffinate which subsequently is hydrotreated to provide a process oil.

  • Patent number: 6024864
    Abstract: A method for producing a process oil is provided in which an aromatic extract oil is added to a paraffinic rich feed to provide a blended feed. The blended feed is then hydrotreated in a first hydrotreating stage to convert at least a portion of sulfur and nitrogen in the feed to hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. After stripping, the feed is subjected to a second hydrotreating stage to provide a process oil.

  • Patent number: 5846405
    Abstract: A method for producing a process oil is provided in which an aromatic extract oil is added to a napthenic rich feed. The combined feed is then hydrotreated in a first hydrotreating stage to convert at least a portion of sulfur and nitrogen in the feed to hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. After stripping the feed is subjected to a second hydrotreating stage to provide a process oil.
