  • Publication number: 20240384186
    Abstract: The invention relates to a hydrocracking process and system. The gas oil feedstock and hydrogen are mixed and reacted in a hydrotreating unit. The resulting reaction effluent is sent to a first hydrogenation cracking unit and reacted by contacting a hydrogenation cracking catalyst I to obtain light fraction I rich in paraffins and heavy fraction I rich in cyclic hydrocarbons. The heavy fraction I is mixed with hydrogen and reacted in a second hydrogenation cracking unit, thereby producing heavy fraction II rich in cyclic hydrocarbons. The present invention wholly realizes the high-selective directional conversion of gas oil feedstock according to the chain structure and the ring structure and can produce chemical raw materials rich in paraffins and naphthenic speciality oil rich in cyclic hydrocarbons.

  • Patent number: 11878602
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for establishing an active distribution network planning model considering location and capacity determination of an electric vehicle charging station. In terms of location and capacity determination of electric vehicle charging stations, a traffic flow of electric vehicles is converted into a charging demand flowing in a traffic network, and an electric vehicle traffic network model is established based on an M/M/s queuing model and a flow capturing location model in the traffic field. A distributed generation (including wind power and photovoltaic) and load model is established, based on a time series method. An energy storage element model in a power distribution network is established based on an idea of equivalent load. A nested planning model is established by taking economy and reliability of a power distribution network and a maximum traffic flow intercepted by the electric vehicle charging stations as objectives.

  • Patent number: 11260880
    Abstract: In one embodiment, instead of using map data, a relative coordinate system is utilized to assist perception of the driving environment surrounding an ADV for some driving situations. One of such driving situations is driving on a highway. Typically, a highway has fewer intersections and exits. The relative coordinate system is utilized based on the relative lane configuration and relative obstacle information to control the ADV to simply follow the lane and avoid potential collision with any obstacles discovered within the road, without having to use map data. Once the relative lane configuration and obstacle information have been determined, regular path and speed planning and optimization can be performed to generate a trajectory to drive the ADV. Such a perception system is referred to as a relative perception system based on a relative coordinate system.
