  • Publication number: 20240343980
    Abstract: Process and apparatus for recovering a product stream from a waste plastic feedstock and reducing the endpoint of the product stream is provided. A polymer oil is produced as a product stream by pyrolyzing the waste plastic feedstock in a pyrolysis reactor to produce a pyrolysis vapor and passing the pyrolysis vapor to a condenser. A drag stream from the pyrolysis reactor is further pyrolyzed to convert the polymer oil to pyrolysis oil which is vaporized under pyrolysis conditions to vaporous pyrolysis oil and dry char. Vaporous pyrolysis oil is recovered to enhance conversion and fed to a condenser using a liquid jet ejector.

  • Publication number: 20240191941
    Abstract: An improved process and apparatus integrate a deethanizer column with a cryogenic heat exchanger by condensing the deethanizer column overhead with a refrigerant stream in a cryogenic heat exchanger. A refrigerant compressor may provide refrigerant to the deethanizer overhead cryogenic condenser and a main cryogenic heat exchanger. Expansion of the refrigerant may provide sufficient cooling duty in one or both cryogenic exchangers.

  • Publication number: 20240095549
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described for predictive analysis of transaction data using machine learning. A server computing device trains a plurality of machine learning models using historical transaction data for a set of entities as input to predict a likelihood of future transaction activity for each of the entities, each machine learning model trained on a different target transaction variable. The server computing device executes each of the plurality of machine learning models to generate, for each entity, a predicted likelihood value for a future transaction associated with the entity and each of the target transaction variables. The server computing device transmits the predicted likelihood values for each entity to a remote computing device for display.

  • Patent number: 10808572
    Abstract: A gas turbine engine that includes a turbomachinery core operable to produce a core gas flow and that includes a combustor. A first duct is positioned downstream of and in flow communication with the combustor. A component is positioned within the first duct and extends between radially outward and radially inward walls of the first duct. The component that includes a first cooling passageway formed therein. The first cooling passageway extends between an inlet communicating with the first duct and positioned facing towards the turbomachinery core, and an outlet communicating with a pressure sink.

  • Patent number: 10605012
    Abstract: A tubular member connection system includes a box having an inner diameter surface and internal box threads. A pin has an outer diameter surface and external pin threads, the pin threads shaped to mate with the box threads to releasably secure the pin to the box so that the pin and the box are aligned along a common central axis. A slot is located in one of the inner diameter surface and the outer diameter surface, the slot having a pair of sidewalls. An anti-rotation profile is located in the other of the inner diameter surface and the outer diameter surface. A key is sized to fit within the slot and have a key profile shaped to engage the anti-rotation profile and prevent relative rotational movement between the box and the pin.

  • Patent number: 10597950
    Abstract: A tubular member connection system includes a pin having a central axis, external pin threads, and an annular pin lip at a shoulder surface. A box has internal box threads and an annular box lip at an end surface of the box. The box threads are shaped to mate with the pin threads to releasably secure the pin to the box. A recess is formed in an outer diameter surface of the pin and extends in an axial direction from the pin lip. An anti-rotation key is located within the recess and has a row of teeth along an outer edge. A fastener retains the anti-rotation key in the recess. A circumferentially extending series of grooves on the box lip are sized to engage the teeth and resist a rotation of the pin relative to the box in an unscrewing direction when the pin is releasably secured to the box.
