Abstract: An apparatus is provided for making contactless card transactions, specifically of the secure element payment application variety, adapted for use in, but not limited to a customized and personalized skin that is applied to various mobile devices. The contactless payment skin provides a customized fit to the physical design of the mobile device to which it is applied. Customized graphics or images may be imprinted on the payment skin. The contactless payment skin is affixed to that mobile device. The contactless payment skin contains a contactless card region that houses an antenna and a secure element (SE) chip that may be used for contactless payment transactions at a merchant point of sale reader.

Abstract: An electricity generation system is disclosed for utilization with a natural gas purification system. In one embodiment, a gas-driven engine which is substantially powered by a low-BTU gas produced in a natural gas purification process is mechanically coupled to an electric motor and is utilized to drive the electrical motor. The electric motor generates electrical energy that can be utilized to power substantially all or a portion of the purification process' electrical load. The generated electricity may be used to supply major or minor loads of the gas purification process.

Abstract: A process for the removal of inert gases, such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide, from methane-containing gases, such as natural gas, including a first stage removal which lowers the total combined inert content to about less than 30% and a second stage removal utilizing a pressure swing adsorption process comprising one or more adsorbent beds comprising contracted titanosilicate-1 adsorbent, wherein the purified methane-containing gas contains less than about 6% total combined inerts.
