Abstract: There is herein described a Fischer-Tropsch reactor. More particularly, there is described a Fischer-Tropsch reactor that incorporates forced flow through a small pore, thick layer, monolith supported catalyst and high levels of heat transfer that is able to operate with high levels of catalyst effectiveness. The catalyst bed (103) is supported on a distinct porous structure (101) through which the syn-gas flow is forced and the catalyst layer has a thickness of more than 200 microns.

Abstract: There is herein described a high pressure gas to liquid (GTL) process. More particularly, there is described a once through high pressure GTL process utilizing a porous catalytic membrane reactor capable of being connected to a novel structured fixed bed reactor that incorporates forced flow through the porous catalytic structured catalyst in combination with high levels of heat transfer where there is no compression of syngas between reforming and Fischer-Tropsch steps.

Abstract: A method for delivering a context-based study to a panel in order to measure the effectiveness of advertisements is provided. One disclosed method may include receiving a study definition from a study generation device, the study definition including panel criteria and a target context, and selecting a panel of panelist candidates by matching the panel criteria with panelist candidate demographic information. The method may include monitoring browser events via a study client browser extension of a panelist computing device in order to determine when a target context has been met. The method may further include sending a report indicating that the target context has been met.

Abstract: An electrical power metering system. The electrical power metering system may include a plurality of gated power receptacles, each of the gated power receptacles being configured to selectively provide electrical power in response to receiving a wireless signal. The system may further include a service application configured to receive a request to provide electrical power for one of the plurality of gated power receptacles, the request including an identifier that designates the one of the plurality of gated power receptacles at which electrical power is requested. The system may further include a local host application executable on a computing device, the local host application being configured to send the wireless signal via a coordinator module to the one of the plurality of gated power receptacles to provide electrical power in response to receiving a communication from the service application that includes the identifier.
