Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing clean petroleum fuel by reducing sulfur content, and raising the Cetane Number to a value above 50, in a process that may be carried out at one atmospheric pressure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for reducing sulfur content in petroleum fuel, such as diesel fuel, and raising the Cetane Number to a value above 50.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method of managing a computer network includes installing an agent in each of a plurality of network nodes in the network. The agent may be configured to identify one or more types of network resources attached to a particular node with which the agent is associated. One or more roles may be assigned to or by the agent based, at least in part, upon the one or more types of network resources identified by the agent. Functions associated with the identified roles may be executed. Monitoring the status of each agent may also be carried out. In another embodiment, a network management system includes an agent executing within an associated network node of the network. The agent may be configured to operate so as to identify one or more types of resources attached to the network node. The agent may be assigned one or more roles based, at least in part, on an inference based upon the one or more types of attached resources identified by the agent.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing low sulfur and high Cetane Number petroleum fuel, the process comprises providing fuel, adding acid source, aluminum, base source, heating the mixture, separating fuel from water, and adding at least one additive in order to raise the Cetane Number.
