Abstract: Systems for determining the concentration of a corrosion inhibitor can include an autosampler and an liquid chromatography (LC) system. The autosampler can sample an aqueous liquid having a corrosion inhibitor from a fluid stream of an oil field system into an injector of a LC system. An injector injects aqueous liquid of a predetermined volume and a mobile phase into an LC system column. Over a first predetermined time, the first solvent concentration range is increased to a second solvent concentration range and the first buffer concentration range is decreased to a second buffer concentration range. A detector determines a concentration of corrosion inhibitor in the aqueous liquid flowing out of the column. Over a second predetermined time, the second solvent concentration range is decreased to the first solvent concentration range over a second predetermined time, and the second buffer concentration range is increased to the first buffer concentration range.

Abstract: Implementations relate to determination and display of estimated hold durations for calls. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining an identifier of a target entity, the identifier usable by a first call device to initiate a call between the first call device and the target entity. A hold duration is determined that is an estimated amount of time before the call is matched to a human agent when the call is initiated at a particular time that is prospective to a current time. The hold duration is determined based on previous calls between one or more call devices and the target entity. The hold duration is provided for display by the first call device prior to the initiation of the call between the first call device and the target entity.

Abstract: Implementations relate to determination and visual display of spoken menus for calls. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes receiving audio data output in a call between a call device and a device associated with a target entity. The audio data includes speech indicating one or more selection options for a user of the call device to navigate through a call menu provided by the target entity in the call. Text is determined by programmatically analyzing the audio data, the text representing the speech. The selection options are determined based on programmatically analyzing at least one of the text or the audio data. At least a portion of the text is displayed by the call device during the call, as one or more visual options that correspond to the selection options. The visual options are each selectable via user input to cause corresponding navigation through the call menu.

Abstract: The measurement of glutaraldehyde-based biocides in seawater without the use of a derivatization agent. The measurement of glutaraldehyde-based biocides in seawater may be performed without additional components to reduce background interferences. The concentration of a glutaraldehyde-based biocides in a seawater sample is determined using reversed phase liquid chromatography and a gradient mobile phase of acetonitrile and deionized water. Systems for determining the concentration of glutaraldehyde-based biocide in a seawater injection system are also provided.

Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to methods, systems, and computer-readable media to automatically answer a call. In some implementations, a method includes receiving a call from a caller device at a client device. The method further includes determining, based on an identifier associated with the call, whether the call matches auto answer criteria, and yin response to determining that the call matches the auto answer criteria, answering the call without user input and without alerting a user of the client device. The method further includes generating a call embedding for the call based on received audio of the call, comparing the call embedding with spam embeddings to determine whether the call is a spam call, and in response to determining that the call is a spam call, terminating the call.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for removing hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from a feed gas stream. H2S in the feed gas stream is converted to elemental sulfur in a Claus unit. At least a part of the gas stream obtained is contacted with an aqueous lean absorbing medium in an absorption zone at a pressure between 0.9 and 2 bara. The aqueous lean absorbing medium used comprises one or more amines chosen from: —a polyamine in the absence of tertiary amine functionalities having a pKa sufficient to neutralize carbamic acid, the polyamine having at least one primary amine functionality having a pKa smaller than 10.0 at 25° C., —a polyamine in the absence of tertiary amine functionalities having a pKa sufficient to neutralize carbamic acid, the polyamine having at least one secondary amine functionality having a pKa for each sorbing nitrogen smaller than 10.0 at 25° C. The process is improved as compared to a process involving Claus off-gas treatment with (activated) MDEA.
