Abstract: A multi-stage process for transforming a high sulfur ISO 8217 compliant Feedstock Heavy Marine Fuel Oil involving a core desulfurizing process that produces a Product Heavy Marine Fuel Oil that can be used as a feedstock for subsequent refinery process such as anode grade coking, needle coking and fluid catalytic cracking. The Product Heavy Marine Fuel Oil exhibits multiple properties desirable as a feedstock for those processes including a sulfur level has a maximum sulfur content (ISO 14596 or ISO 8754) between the range of 0.05 mass % to 1.0 mass. A process plant for conducting the process is also disclosed.

Abstract: A forest fire retardant composition contains a retardant compound that includes a phosphate salt. The phosphate salt may include diammonium phosphate, diammonium orthophosphate, monoammonium phosphate, monoammonium orthophosphate, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate, disodium phosphate hydrate, sodium ammonium phosphate, sodium ammonium phosphate hydrate, sodium tripolyphosphate, trisodium phosphate, or dipotassium phosphate, and combinations thereof. The forest fire retardant composition may include an ammonium source. The composition may be in the form of a dry concentrate, a liquid concentrate, or a final diluted product. The final diluted product is effective in suppressing, retarding, and controlling forest fires while exhibiting corrosion resistance and low toxicity.

Abstract: A system determines a baseline cyberthreat-risk score for a user, and displays the baseline cyberthreat-risk score via a user interface. The system presents at least one cyberthreat-education activity via the user interface, and receives, via the user interface, at least one user input associated with the presented at least one cyberthreat-education activity. The system generates an updated cyberthreat-risk score at least in part by updating the baseline cyberthreat-risk score based at least in part on the user input, and displays the updated cyberthreat-risk score via the user interface.

Abstract: Methods and devices for determining whether a mobile device has been compromised. The mobile device has a managed portion of memory and an unmanaged portion of memory, a managed profile and an unmanaged profile, and the managed profile includes files stored in the managed portion of memory and the unmanaged profile includes files stored in the unmanaged portion of memory. The managed profile is governed by a device policy set by a remote administrator. File tree structure information for the unmanaged profile of the mobile device is obtained that details at least a portion of a tree-based structure of folders and files in the unmanaged portion of memory. It is determined from the file tree structure information that the mobile device has been compromised and, based on that determination, an action is taken.

Abstract: A server is provided and is programmed to automatically determine, based on the identification data that uniquely identifies a patient device, whether there is an upgrade to the code or data (e.g., software or firmware) stored in the electronic memory of the patient device that can be applied thereto. In response to determination that there is an upgrade that can be applied, a data package is delivered to the patient device via the first wireless transceiver, the data package to be automatically applied to the electronic memory of the patient device.

Abstract: A process for producing compressed hydrogen gas, said process comprising electrolysing water to produce hydrogen gas and compressing said hydrogen gas in a multistage compression system to produce compressed hydrogen gas. The multistage compression system comprises at least one centrifugal compression stage, and the hydrogen gas is fed to the centrifugal compression stage at a pre-determined feed temperature and pressure and having a pre-determined relative humidity. The process further comprises adding water and heat to the hydrogen gas upstream of the centrifugal compression stage, as required, to humidify the hydrogen gas to the pre-determined relative humidity.

Abstract: Method of cleaning sucker rods using a portable cleaning tool containing a rotating brush assembly to remove scale and corrosion residue on the sucker rods is described herein. The brush is annular with an empty or hollow center, such that the rod can penetrate through the hole in the brush. The tool is powered by air compression, and also contains a mechanism of removing the collected debris for disposal. The cleaning tool assembly could be either a standalone device on site placed on a mounted rack, or could be attached to the rod to be cleaned.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes determining a position for a search query and a position for each audience record from multiple audience records in an embedding space. The method further includes receiving multiple device records, each associated with an audience record. The method further includes determining multiple keywords, each associated with an audience record and determining a position for each keyword in the embedding space. The method further includes calculating a first distance between the position of the search query in the embedding space and the position of each audience record in the embedding space. The method further includes calculating a second distance between the position of the search query in the embedding space and the position of each keyword in the embedding space. The method further includes ranking each audience record based on the first distance and the second distance.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to apparatuses and methods for registering and storing a local key associated with a local application of a communication device, including, but not limited to, receiving a request from the communication device to register and store the local key, evaluating the request based on at least one first policy, and sending the request to register and store the local key to a secure key storage.

Abstract: A dynamic spatial monitoring platform is disclosed that provides improved management and compliance with guest-spacing requirements. The spatial monitoring platform may include a plurality of tracking modules that are configured to capture environmental data of an environment with guests. The environmental data is processed to identify spacing or distancing between guests and in response, cause one or more images to be displayed or projected by the tracking modules to provide visual feedback to one or more guests relating to their spatial relationship with other guests.
