  • Patent number: 11914676
    Abstract: Technologies and techniques for monitoring and correcting the obfuscation of vehicle-related data. Personal data may be removed from the transmitted vehicle-related data, and the vehicle-related data after the removal of the personal references may be combined to form a vehicle-related data set without personal references. A temporal and spatial obfuscation of the vehicle-related data set may be carried out without personal references based on an estimated size of a cluster of data-collecting vehicles for generating an anonymous data set. The anonymous data set, including the degree of obfuscation, may be provided to a data user and an actual cluster size for a spatial region based on the provided anonymous data sets may be determined and compared with the estimated cluster size used for the obfuscation of the anonymous data set. The comparison result may be then used to correct the obfuscation of the spatial region.

  • Publication number: 20240034621
    Abstract: A method for the use of hydrogen as a resource includes producing a mixture by a catalytic reaction in a reactor. The mixture includes hydrogen carrier medium to which hydrogen can be chemically bound by a catalytic hydrogenation reaction and from which hydrogen can be released again by a catalytic dehydrogenation reaction, and hydrogen that is dissolved, i.e. physically stored, therein, and hydrogenating the hydrogen carrier medium with the dissolved hydrogen in a hydrogenation unit.

  • Publication number: 20210077984
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a supported, platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst for the partial or complete dehydrogenation of perhydrogenated or partially hydrogenated cyclic hydrocarbons. The present invention also relates to a method for producing a platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst and to a platinum-containing and sulfur-containing shell catalyst. The present invention further relates to a method for the partial or complete dehydrogenation of perhydrogenated or partially hydrogenated cyclic hydrocarbons.
