  • Publication number: 20180036709
    Abstract: A portable fuel synthesizer, comprising multiple shipping containers, the various modules within one of the multiple shipping containers, a boiler utilizing a hydrocarbon gas as fuel, a cooling system module connected to the boiler, the cooling system adjusts a temperature of the boiler, a syngas reformer, a reactor connected to the syngas reformer and the boiler, the reactor converts the syngas to a hydrocarbon liquid, a hot separator connected to the reactor, a cold separator connected to the hot separator separates liquid hydrocarbons and gaseous hydrocarbons at a lower temperature and pressure than the hot separator, a distillation unit connected to the cold separator performs fractional distillation and separation of hydrocarbon products received from the cold separator, a recycle module connected to the cold separator and distillation unit recycles unreacted gases to the reactor, and a fuel testing and blending unit to receive separated hydrocarbons from the distillation unit.

  • Publication number: 20130003297
    Abstract: This invention uses an innovative combination of existing technologies to achieve the novel result of managing access to some number of electronic devices that would normally not be suited to access control. Additionally the invention is specifically designed to enclose various configurations of power strips and surge protectors. One of the key features of this technology, is the property that devices can easily be added to or plugged into this device when it is open and unsecured. Once the lid is secured and closed, the attached devices cannot be unplugged. The design of the device ensures that there is ample room for cords to pass out of the device when the lid is secured, but not enough space to reach inside it with a tool and tamper with it. This application acknowledges the numerous patents in the field methods of electronic power surge protection and contemplates no infringement.

  • Patent number: 8184691
    Abstract: An encryption and authentication technique that achieves enhanced integrity verification through assured error-propagation using a multistage sequence of pseudorandom permutations. The present invention generates intermediate data-dependent cryptographic variables at each stage, which are systematically combined into feedback loops. The encryption technique also generates an authentication tag without any further steps that is N times longer than the block size where N is the number of pseudorandom permutations used in the encipherment of each block. The authentication tag provides a unique mapping to the plaintext for any number of plaintext blocks that is less than or equal to N. In addition to being a stand alone encryption algorithm, the disclosed technique is applicable to any mode that uses pseudorandom permutations such as, key dependent lookup tables, S-Boxes, and block ciphers such as RC5, TEA, and AES.
