Abstract: A process is described for the production of hydrogen from a hydrogen-containing compound within a reactor comprising a first and a second zone separated by a selective hydrogen-permeable membrane, in which a hydrogen-producing reaction occurs in the first zone and hydrogen permeates from the first zone to the second zone through the selective hydrogen-permeable membrane, in which a sweep gas stream is combined with permeated hydrogen in the second zone, wherein the partial pressure in the second zone of the reactor is maintained at a level of greater than 30 psi (207 kPa).

Abstract: The disclosure relates to method and apparatus for geolocation determination. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method for detecting an erroneous satellite measurement by a receiver, including the steps of (a) determining an approximate location of the receiver; (b) for each of a plurality of satellites from which the receiver receives a signal: (i) determining a range difference between an expected range between the receiver and the satellite and a measured range between the receiver and the satellite; (ii) determining a median value of the range differences; (iii) determining an offset value between the range difference and the median value; (iv) comparing the offset value with a predetermined threshold to thereby detect an erroneous satellite measurement.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining the location of a device from signals provided by a plurality of satellites. A device receives a first plurality of signals comprising one signal from each of a first plurality of satellites and determines a first location of the device as a function of the first plurality of signals. The device then determines a second location thereof as a function of a second plurality of signals if the first location is not within a predetermined threshold. The second plurality of signals is a first subset of the first plurality of signals.
