Abstract: A titanium alloy composition that includes, other than impurities, about 7.0 to about 9.0 percent by weight vanadium (V), about 3.0 to about 4.5 percent by weight aluminum (Al), about 0.8 to about 1.5 percent by weight iron (Fe), about 0.14 to about 0.22 percent by weight oxygen (O), optionally about 0.8 to about 2.4 percent by weight chromium (Cr), and the balance titanium.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a method including assigning a relative or absolute per output unit weighting factor using a mathematical formulas based on individual and/or total sample population carbon sourcing.

Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for electric power generation. The apparatus includes an electrical power generating facility coupled to the plasma facilitated thermal reduction apparatus through switch gear; a plasma facilitated thermal reduction module communicates with the electric power generating facility thought switch gear. A gas turbine electric generator communicates with the electrical power generating facility; a hydrogen generating module communicates with the gas turbine electric generator; and a steam turbine generator communicates to the hydrogen generating module whereby the direct application of otherwise unused grid distributed electrical power towards the synthesis of storable hydrocarbon energy carrier molecules.

Abstract: An informational article having a separation control material disposed on a portion of the surface of the article and an information receiving layer overlying at least a portion of the separation control material and a portion of the surface. The information receiving layer is adapted to receive information thereon. A transparent tape is adhesively bonded to the information receiving layer containing the information. The transparent tape is more strongly adhered to the information receiving layer than the information receiving layer is adhered to the separation control material. In this way, removal of the transparent tape from the article removes both (i) the information receiving layer and (ii) the information overlying the separation control material from the remainder of the information receiving layer and the information. Because of this, evidence of tampering is easily, visually, detectable. An associated method is also disclosed.
