Abstract: A data storage device includes a port for receiving a removable memory component, e.g., a secure digital card. The data storage device has a first partition and a second partition. The first partition stores data received from the removable memory component. The second partition stores pointers associated with a subset of the data stored in the first partition. The subset of data is marked as data of interest for a user based on a first set of attributes. The second partition is a virtual removable memory component and is rendered on a display as a physical removable memory component with the subset of data from the first partition that is associated with the pointers in the second partition. The subset of data stored in the first partition is fetched utilizing the pointers in the second partition and subsequently transmitted to a system external to the data storage device.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a process for producing synthesis gas by steam reforming a hydrocarbon load in a reforming furnace provided with a combustion chamber and a convection chamber; the combustion chamber includes vertical tubes filled with catalyst wherein a mixture of hydrocarbons and steam circulates from top to bottom recovering raw synthesis gas at the bottom of the tubes, and burners disposed in rows heat the tubes; the convection chamber discharges fumes containing the gases produced by the combustion. The process also comprises steps of using the heat contained in the fumes for preheating and/or heating various fluids related or unrelated to the process. In the event of the reduction of the mass flow of fumes, the quantity of energy to be transferred into the convection area is maintained by supplying a supplementary gaseous flow to the combustion area.
