  • Publication number: 20190013530
    Abstract: A heat exchanger for a fuel cell system, in particular in a vehicle, includes a gas section for at least one gas and one cooling fluid section for cooling the at least one gas, a housing, and a cooler matrix which is arranged in the housing and in which the cooling fluid section is configured, where the cooler matrix forms a multiplicity of cavities which produce the gas section, at least one gas inlet on the housing, at least one partition in the cooler matrix for dividing the gas section into at least two flows, with the result that the two flows can be cooled by way of the same cooling fluid section, and at least two gas outlets on the housing, where each flow opens into a dedicated gas outlet.

  • Publication number: 20180282360
    Abstract: A sweetener and to a method of production thereof is provided. The task of the present invention consists of providing a sucrose-based sweetener, in the production of which the step of separation of the residual sucrose from the isomerization stage is not required, and which has excellent properties for further processing, for example it can be formulated as sweets.

  • Patent number: 10017443
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing alcohols by homogeneously catalyzed hydroformylation of olefins to aldehydes and subsequent hydration of the aldehydes. The invention further relates to a system for carrying out the method. The main focus is on the separation technique for work-up of the hydroformylation mixture. The problem addressed by the invention is that specifying a work-up method for hydroformylation mixtures that utilizes the specific advantages of known separation technologies but at the same time largely avoids the specific disadvantages of said separation technologies. The most important objective is to create a catalyst separation system that is as complete and at the same time conservative as possible and that operates in a technically reliable manner and entails low investment and operating costs. The method should be unrestrictedly suitable for processing the reaction output from oxo systems in “world scale” format.

  • Publication number: 20180129580
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for remotely debugging applications in a private cloud environment. One example method includes establishing a first secure connection with a client device in response to receiving a request from the client device for a secure debugging session to remotely debug an application instance running in a private cloud environment. A host that is hosting the application instance is identified. A second secure connection is established with the identified host. A request is submitted, over the second secured connection, to the identified host, to instantiate a debug proxy process. The debug proxy process is configured to establish a secure inter-process communication channel with the application instance and instruct the application instance to run in a debug mode.

  • Publication number: 20180121307
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for monitoring processes running on a platform as a service architecture. One example method includes storing a received sample of monitored attributes of a computer process in a sample memory buffer that includes other stored samples. A determination is made that the sample memory buffer is full. The sample memory buffer is compressed. A starting position in a compressed sample file store at which to store the compressed sample memory buffer is determined. The compressed sample memory buffer is stored at the determined starting position in the compressed sample file store. The starting position of the stored compressed sample memory buffer is stored at a particular location in a file position index. A collection timestamp for the sample in a timestamp index is stored at a timestamp index location that matches the particular location in the file position index.

  • Publication number: 20170346111
    Abstract: A fuel cell system includes at least one fuel cell, an oxidant conveyor, a humidifier and at least one water sink. The oxidant conveyor conveys an oxidant through a supply line to the fuel cell. The humidifier introduces water into the oxidant flow. The humidifier is arranged in and/or downstream of the oxidant conveyor and upstream of the fuel cell. The water sink is arranged between the fuel cell and the oxidant conveyor. The water sink is formed and arranged in the supply line in such a way that it prevents liquid water located in the supply line from flowing to the oxidant conveyor.

  • Patent number: 9624153
    Abstract: The invention relates to processes for preparing aldehydes by hydroformylation of alkenes, in which an alkene-containing feed mixture is subjected to a primary hydroformylation with synthesis gas in the presence of a homogeneous catalyst system, the primary hydroformylation being effected in a primary reaction zone from which a cycle gas containing at least some of the products and unconverted reactants of the primary hydroformylation are drawn off continuously and partly condensed, with recycling of uncondensed components of the cycle gas into the primary reaction zone, and with distillative separation of condensed components of the cycle gas in an aldehyde removal stage to give an aldehyde-rich mixture and a low-aldehyde mixture. The problem that it addresses is that of developing the process such that it achieves high conversions and affords aldehyde in good product quality even in the case of a deteriorating raw material position.

  • Patent number: 9567276
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of alcohols by hydrogenation of aldehydes, in which use mixture comprising at least one aldehyde and at least one accompanying component is brought into contact, in the presence of hydrogen, with a heterogeneous catalyst, giving a product mixture which comprises at least the alcohol corresponding to the hydrogenated aldehyde, and at least one by-product, where the catalyst comprises a support material, and nickel and copper applied thereto. The invention also includes a chromium-free catalyst suitable for hydrogenating aldehyde mixtures with different chain lengths, in particular those which originate from different hydroformylations and can also comprise substances with C?C double bonds.
