Abstract: A system for treating non-petroleum or renewable feedstocks comprises a reactor having a heat source for heating an interior of the reactor. The reactor receives a feedstock of a non-petroleum or renewable feedstock containing oxygen or contaminants at certain conditions to form a reactor product having gums and resins of the feedstock removed and/or reduced. A first heat exchanger cools at least a portion of the reactor product to a reduced temperature to form a reduced-temperature reactor product. A hydroprocessing reactor receives at least a portion of the reduced-temperature reactor product to form a hydroprocessed product. A second heat exchanger receives the hydroprocessed product to cool the hydroprocessed product to a temperature of 250° F. or less to form a cooled hydroprocessed product. A separator is configured to separate and remove non-condensable gases, metals and water from the cooled hydroprocessed product to form liquid hydrocarbons that form a final product.

Abstract: A method of hydroprocessing is performed wherein non-petroleum feedstocks, such as those containing from about 10% or more olefinic compounds or heteroatom contaminants by weight, are treated in a first reaction zone to provide reaction products. The process involves introducing the feedstock along with diluents or a recycle and hydrogen in a first reaction zone and allowing the feed and hydrogen to react in a liquid phase within the first reaction zone to produce reaction products. The reaction products are cooled and/or water is removed from the reaction products. At least a portion of the cooled and/or separated reaction product are introduced as a feed along with hydrogen into a second reaction zone containing a hydroprocessing catalyst. The feed and hydrogen are allowed to react in a liquid phase within the second reaction zone to produce a second-reaction-zone reaction product.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for securely providing identity attributes. A server computer may receive, from a relying entity, a request for identity attributes associated with a target entity, wherein the request for identity attributes includes a session identifier associated with the target entity and an identifier of the relying entity. The server computer may validate the request based on the session identifier. The server computer may identify, based on the identifier of the relying entity, a package defining types of identity attributes for the relying entity and a data access token associated with the package. Based on validating the request, the server computer may transmit, to a digital identity provider, a request for a set of identity attributes corresponding to the package, the request comprising the data access token. The server computer may receive, from the digital identity provider, the set of identity attributes.
