Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of increasing syngas production during an upgradation process of petroleum residual oil by circulation of rejuvenated upgrading material through a heat removal zone such as an Auxiliary Reformer and by regeneration of spent upgrading material.

Abstract: The present invention relates to preparation of catalyst for production of olefinic hydrocarbons by dehydrogenation of their corresponding paraffins, particularly propylene from propane, comprising a metal oxide or combination of metal oxides utilizing spent catalyst from Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC)/Resid Fluid Catalytic Cracking (RFCC) processes. The metal oxides are possibly from transition metal group, particularly from groups VB, VIB, VIII, and Lanthanide series, and at least one metal from alkali group. The catalyst support used is spent catalyst or modified spent catalyst or combination thereof. The said catalyst can be used for both non-oxidative Propane Dehydrogenation (PDH) and Oxidative Propane Dehydrogenation (OPDH) process in the presence of CO2.

Abstract: A database management (DM) computing device for reducing an amount of data stored within an enhanced database while ensuring that data remaining within the enhanced database is able to satisfy a plurality of user queries is described. The DM computing device is in communication with the enhanced database and a secondary storage database. The DM computing device is configured to receive a log data file identifying a number of times each data field in the enhanced database has been queried, rank the data fields based on the number of times each data field has been queried, and identify least-queried data fields from the ranked data fields, wherein the least-queried data fields are defined by rules in a memory. The DM computing device is also configured to store in the secondary storage database the least-queried data fields from the enhanced database, and remove from the enhanced database the least-queried data fields.

Abstract: The present invention is related to an integrated process for enhancing the yields of propylene and other light olefins from Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process in combination with Oxidative propane dehydrogenation (OPDH) where in a hydrocarbon stream from Propylene recovery section consisting of propane predominantly, is converted to high value light olefins primarily C3 and C2 olefins by catalytic oxidative dehydrogenation using carbon dioxide from FCC flue gas exiting the regenerator. Several process configurations for the conversion of C3 and C4 alkanes to their respective alkenes separately or simultaneously by integrating with FCC are provided.

Abstract: A circuit is presented for determining whether or not to invert a bus, for example a data bus that is operable having multiple widths. The circuit includes comparison circuitry that can receive both the current and next values for the bus and individually compare the current and next values of the bits on the bus to determine whether these have changed. A voting circuit receives the result of these determinations and also receives an indication of width with which the bus is being operated. The voting circuit then determines a bus inversion values based upon whether the number of bits on the data that have changed exceed a value that depends upon the indication of bus width.

Abstract: A first pair of single-ended drivers, each having a respective output connected to a first line of a differential channel, are defined to work against each other with respect to driving a first signal on the first line of the differential channel. A second pair of single-ended drivers, each having a respective output connected to a second line of the differential channel, are defined to work against each other with respect to driving a second signal on the second line of the differential channel. Each of the first pair of single-ended drivers and each of the second pair of single-ended drivers is connected to receive a common input signal. A difference between the first signal on the first line of the differential channel and the second signal on the second line of the differential channel defines a differential signal that is representative of the common input signal.
