BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH INTELLIGENT VISUALIZATION FOR OCCUPANCY AND ENERGY USAGE INTEGRATION
Publication number: 20240142930Abstract: A building system including one or more storage devices storing instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to ingest information comprising at least one of occupancy information or energy usage information associated with a building. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to generate a space usage recommendation based on the information. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to cause a graphical model of the building to include a representation of the information and the space usage recommendation. The instructions further cause the one or more processors to cause a display device of a user device to display the graphical model within a user interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Jason Pelski, James Callanan, Edward Gerard McNamara, Michael J. Wenzel, Robbie Glen Davis, Shawn D. Schubert, Evan O'Gorman, Himanshu Gupta, Kristian Koivisto-Kokko, Ashteya Biharisingh -
Patent number: 10294178Abstract: In a process for separating a mixture comprising cyclohexanone and phenol, a solid-phase basic material, such as basic ion-exchange resin, is used to remove acid and/or sulfur from the mixture prior to separation. The process results in reduced amount of contamination such as cyclic ethers in the cyclohexanone and/or phenol products.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2016Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: ExxonMobil Chemical Patents Inc.Inventors: Keith H.

Patent number: 10259765Abstract: Disclosed are novel processes for making cyclohexanone compositions, from a mixture comprising phenol, cyclohexanone, and cyclohexylbenzene. The process includes hydrogenation of a feed stream comprising phenol, cyclohexanone, and cyclohexylbenzene. The feed stream may be subjected to one or more pre-hydrogenation treatments, such as passing through one or more sorbents, addition of basic chemical agents, and/or addition of water, so as to improve catalyst activity, minimize undesired side reactions, and/or remove catalyst poisons from the feed stream. The feed stream may be provided to a hydrogenation reaction zone in the vapor phase, with periodic alterations to hydrogenation reaction conditions such that the feed is provided in mixed liquid and vapor phase in order to carry out liquid washing of a hydrogenation catalyst bed within the hydrogenation reaction zone.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2016Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: ExxonMobil Chemical Patents Inc.Inventors: Jihad M. Dakka, Ashley J. Malik, Christopher L. Becker, Jason D. Davis, Kirk C. Nadler, Jose M. Vargas, Tan-Jen Chen, Seth M. Washburn, Jörg F. W. Weber
