Patent number: 11955127Abstract: An embodiment extracts a set of designated entities and a set of relationships between designated entities from speech content of an audio feed of a plurality of participants of a current web conference using a machine learning model trained to classify parts of speech content. The embodiment generates a list of current action items based on the extracted set of designated entities and relationships between designated entities. The embodiment identifies a first current action item that is an updated version of an ongoing action item on a progress list of ongoing action items from past web conferences. The embodiment also identifies a second current action item that is unrelated to any of the ongoing action items on the progress list. The embodiment updates the progress list to include updates for the first current action item and by adding the second current action item.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: KYNDRYL, INC.Inventors: Muhammad Ammar Ahmed, Madiha Ijaz, Sreekrishnan Venkateswaran

Patent number: 9079770Abstract: The invention relates to a combined reforming process for making synthesis gas from a desulphurized gaseous hydrocarbon feedstock, wherein the feedstock is split into a first and a second feedstock stream, the first feedstock stream is mixed with steam and fed to a gas heated reformer (GHR) and a steam methane reformer (SMR) operated in series, and the second feedstock stream is mixed with reformed gas coming from the SMR and fed with oxygen to a non-catalytic partial oxidation reformer (POX). The process of the invention enables to produce syngas with adjustable composition and at very high capacity in a single line. The process specifically allows designing a methane-to-methanol production plant with a capacity exceeding 10000 mtpd using technically and economically feasible reforming equipment, and showing high feedstock and energy efficiency. The invention further relates to an integrated process for making methanol from a hydrocarbon feedstock comprising said combined reforming process.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2010Date of Patent: July 14, 2015Assignee: SAUDI BASIC INDUSTRIES CORPORATIONInventors: Ijaz Ahmed, Mubarak Bashir, Abdullah Al-Nutaifi

Patent number: 9067847Abstract: Disclosed herein are processes for producing a synthesis gas mixture and for producing an organic chemical product. The process can comprise: (i) steam reforming a feed gas stream comprising one or more hydrocarbons to produce a reformed synthesis gas mixture comprising H2, CO and CO2; (ii) cooling reformed synthesis gas mixture obtained in (i) and removing H2O from the reformed gas mixture; (iii) subjecting reformed synthesis gas mixture obtained in (ii) to a reverse water gas shift reaction so as to decrease the H2/CO molar ratio of the reformed synthesis gas mixture; and (iv) removing CO2 from synthesis gas mixture obtained in (iii). A first stream of CO2 is added to the gas mixture in step (i) and a second stream of CO2 is added to the gas mixture in step (iii), and wherein the first and/or second streams comprise recycled CO2 removed in step (iv).Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2013Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: SAUDI BASIC INDUSTRIES CORPORATIONInventors: Mubarik Ali Bashir, Ijaz Ahmed

Publication number: 20090131749Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for removing a tissue that extends from a tissue layer, such as a polyp, lesion, or organ. The disclosure provides a medical loop that can be tightened around the tissue extending from the tissue layer by using a one-way anchor and a flexible member to form a loop, the flexible member having ridges to interface with the anchor and secure the flexible member in a tightened position around the tissue. The ridges interface with the tissue to secure the loop in position on the extending tissue and reduce slippage of the loop off of the tissue after tightening the loop. A snare or other cutting instrument may be used to remove the tissue extending outward from the loop. An endoscopic system may be used to guide the medical loop and the cutting instrument to an appropriate location inside a body passage.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2008Publication date: May 21, 2009Applicant: BOARD OF REGENTS, THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS SYSTEMInventors: Ijaz AHMED, Gottumukkala S.

Patent number: 6224843Abstract: A process is provided for production of substantially pure carbon dioxide from a CO2 off-gas stream from an ethylene glycol plant. Water is condensed from an off-gas stream which contains unsaturated hydrocarbons, saturated hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and water. The dewatered gas stream is subjected to catalytic oxidation in the presence of excess oxygen whereby the unsaturated hydrocarbons, saturated hydrocarbons and chlorinated hydrocarbons are oxidized producing an oxidation stream containing carbon dioxide, water and hydrochloric acid. The HCl is removed with an absorbent and substantially pure carbon dioxide is collected. The absorbent-contacted stream can be subjected to catalytic deoxidation in the presence of hydrogen to convert unoxidized oxygen introduced in the catalytic oxidation to water.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1999Date of Patent: May 1, 2001Assignee: Saudi Basic Industries CorporationInventors: Ijaz Ahmed, Abdulaziz M.
