  • Boiling enhancement structures for immersion cooled electronic systems
    Patent number: 12293956
    Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a packaged semiconductor device. The packaged semiconductor device having an integrated heat spreader, wherein, a boiling enhancement structure exists on the integrated heat spreader without a block mass residing between the boiling enhancement structure and the integrated heat spreader. The boiling enhancement structure has a structured non-planar surface to promote bubble nucleation in an immersion cooling system.

  • Catalysts for renewable hydrogen production from oxygenated feedstocks
    Patent number: 9302250
    Abstract: A method of steam reforming where a reaction occurs in which an oxygenated feed contacts a catalyst to produce hydrogen. The catalyst of the reaction comprises a metal/metal promoter on a nickel/transition metal blend catalyst supported on a high-energy lattice metal oxide.

  • METHOD AND FOAM COMPOSITION FOR RECOVERING HYDROCARBONS FROM A SUBTERRANEAN RESERVOIR
    Publication number: 20150175876
    Abstract: Enhanced recovery of hydrocarbons from a subterranean reservoir injects a gaseous reactant and a dispersion of oil, water, and nano-hybrid catalysts through an injection well into a subterranean formation. The combination of the dispersion and gaseous reactant(s) forms a stabilized foam within the subterranean formation. When the foam reaches an oil-water inter-face, the nanohybrid catalysts catalytically partially oxidize the hydrocarbons present at the oil-water interface thereby increasing the capillary number and decreasing the interfacial tension at the oil-water interface.
