  • Patent number: 10503162
    Abstract: A distributed control system receives analysis data. The analysis data includes quality attributes of fluid samples and an indication of a plant location corresponding to the fluid samples. The system identifies one or more anomalies of fluid based upon the quality attributes of the plurality of fluid samples and attributes the one or more anomalies to one or more particular areas. The system triggers an alert, trigger control, or both, based at least in part upon the identified one or more anomalies and the attributed one or more particular areas.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10447169
    Abstract: A system for providing power to a power grid includes a generator configured to output a first voltage associated with a first set of power characteristics. The system includes a power conversion system including a rectifier configured to convert first voltage to a direct current (DC) voltage. The power conversion system includes an inverter comprising one or more switches configured to convert the DC voltage to a second voltage. The system includes a processor configured to receive a second set of power characteristics associated with a power grid. The processor is configured to determine one or more signals configured to cause the switches in the inverter to convert the DC voltage into the second voltage, wherein the second voltage comprises the second set of power characteristics. The processor is configured to send the signals to the switches.

  • Patent number: 10436764
    Abstract: A plant-integrated measurement and monitoring system includes one or more sampling ports disposed throughout to provide fuel samples at key locations in the plant. Additional sampling ports are included to provide samples of water, lube oil or other fluids. Each fuel sample is analyzed in an automated analyzer that determines a presence of contaminants. Results of the analysis are interpreted by the plant control system to determine quality attributes of the fuel samples and identify locations and/or causes of identified anomalies. The control system further issues alerts or actions to limit an impact of the identified anomalies.
