Abstract: A method is described for preparing a sorbent comprising the steps of: (i) mixing together an inert particulate support material and one or more binders to form a support mixture, (ii) shaping the support mixture by granulation in a granulator to form agglomerates, (iii) coating the agglomerates with a coating mixture powder comprising a particulate copper sulphide and one or more binders to form a coated agglomerate, and (iv) drying the coated agglomerate to form a dried sorbent.

Abstract: A communications system (10) comprises a hand held access terminal (11) which enables a first user and a second user to communicate using a plurality of predetermined questions and answers, which are stored in a repository (12) and are selectable by the first and second users via said access terminal. The questions and answers are stored in a plurality of different languages, so that users of different languages can communicate with each other.

Abstract: An alert source issues security alerts to an identity provider, which acts as a gatekeeper to a secure resource. Each security alert is associated with an alert user identity and a security threat. When a user identity requests access to the secure resource, the identity provider may look up security alerts associated with the user identity, such as by matching up the user identity with the alert user identity associated with each alert. Based on any discovered security alerts that correspond to the user identity and a pre-defined security policy, the identity provider may perform various security actions on the user identity. The identity provider may provide access to the secure resource without containing the user identity if there are no discovered security alerts associated with the user identity, or if the discovered security alerts pose a minor threat.

Abstract: An alert source issues security alerts to an identity provider, which acts as a gatekeeper to a secure resource. Each security alert is associated with an alert user identity and a security threat. When a user identity requests access to the secure resource, the identity provider may look up security alerts associated with the user identity, such as my matching up the user identity with the alert user identity associated with each alert. Based on any discovered security alerts that correspond to the user identity and a pre-defined security policy, the identity provider may perform various security actions on the user identity. For example, the identity provider may contain a user identity associated with high-risk and/or high fidelity security alerts. The identity provider may deny the user identity access to the secure resource, or the identity provider may request additional authentication factors associated with the user identity before access to the secure resource is provided.

Abstract: The catalyst of the invention is a particulate catalyst in the form of particles having a minimum dimension of at least 0.8 mm, including a transition metal or a compound thereof dispersed on a porous support material, characterized in that said catalyst particles comprise at least 35% w/w total transition metal; and the transition metal surface area of said catalyst is at least 110 m2 per gram of transition metal and the tapped bulk density of a bed of the catalyst particles is at least 0.7 g/ml. The method of making a catalyst includes multiple steps of impregnation of a porous support with a metal ammine solution followed by drying, calcination and reduction of the dried material. The catalyst is useful in hydrogenation reactions.
