Abstract: Processes and apparatus are provided for treating gasoline range hydrocarbons containing mercaptans to convert the mercaptans to organic disufides. The process involves contacting treated gasoline range hydrocarbons comprising organic disulfides with a coalescing material and separating refined gasoline range hydrocarbons and organic disulfides from spent alkali using a separation device. The apparatus comprises a treatment vessel suitable for housing a catalyst therein for producing treated gasoline range hydrocarbons comprising organic disulfides, as well as a separation device and coalescing material therein for separating gasoline range hydrocarbons and organic disulfides from spent alkali.

Abstract: System, methods, and computer-readable media for determining allowed reimbursement amounts for one or more healthcare services rendered by a healthcare provider to a patient are disclosed. The allowed reimbursement amount may be determined in accordance with reimbursement model parameter(s) and/or reimbursement rule(s) associated with a reimbursement model.

Abstract: A gateway is provided that includes an integration gateway portion, a domain gateway portion, and a hyper-memory portion is provided. The integration gateway portion has an integration rules engine, a search engine, and a first virtual machine. The domain gateway portion has a domain rules engine. The hyper-memory portion has a hyper-memory engine, a hyper-memory, and a second virtual machine. The integration portion accesses a database via the integration rules engine and the first virtual machine or via the search engine and the first virtual machine. The domain gateway portion accesses datasets of the database that are resident in the hyper-memory via the domain objects rules engine and the hyper-memory engine or via the search engine, the second virtual machine, and the hyper-memory engine.

Abstract: A data communication system is provided for communicating with an underground instrument package positioned on a drilling apparatus. The drilling apparatus has an insulated section between first and second conductive sections. The system includes a power supply connected to the first conductive section of the drilling apparatus and to the ground. A receiver measures current flowing through the power supply. An electrical path is provided between the first and second conductive sections of the drilling apparatus. A switch provided in the electrical path opens and closes the electrical path in response to the data generated by the instrument package.
