Publication number: 20250026637Abstract: An apparatus and process for steam reforming can be configured to produce at least one product with reduced carbon dioxide and/or nitrogen oxide emissions. Some embodiments can be better adapted for retrofitting a pre-existing steam reforming process while other embodiments can be better adapted for use in a newly constructed facility. Embodiments can be configured to utilize a synthetic air oxidant to provide combustion that results in formation of a flue gas having relatively high carbon dioxide concentrations that may also have low nitrogen and low nitrogen oxide concentrations. A control system can be configured for utilization in such embodiments to control the steam reforming process and/or oxidant formation process as well. Some embodiments can also be configured to provide carbon dioxide recovery that can permit recovery of a second product stream comprised of carbon dioxide.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: January 23, 2025Applicant: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: Jay A.

Publication number: 20070079436Abstract: A spa is provide with a heat pump for both heating and cooling the water contained in the spa tub. The heat pump uses the existing water pump of the hydrotherapy system to circulate the water through the water heat exchanger of the heat pump. Condensation produced by the heat pump is pumped into the spa tub. Components of the heat pump and water pump are acoustically isolated for noise reduction. Electronic noise reduction may be implemented. Co-generated heat is used to heat the air to produce warm therapeutic bubbles and to feed an ozonator. In addition, an auxiliary electrical resistance heater is arranged in combination with the heat pump for rapid water heating.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2006Publication date: April 12, 2007Inventors: Byeongchul Na, W.

Publication number: 20050071139Abstract: A method and system for modeling water flow of a watershed restoration project. The modeling system allows a user to create a graphical representation of the different areas of a development site design. The graphical representation shows the water flows between the different areas. The user may also specify the attributes of each area, such as rate of infiltration, runoff coefficient, size, rate of evapotranspiration, and so on. The modeling system can simulate the impact of rainfall on the development design. The simulation determines the inflow of water to each area and determines the outflow of water for each area. The results of this simulation can be used to evaluate the development design and adjust the design to achieve the desired cost-benefit balance of the watershed protection criteria of choice.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2003Publication date: March 31, 2005Inventors: Avinash Patwardhan, Patrick Graham, Jared Thorpe, Daniel Medina

Patent number: 6189904Abstract: A vehicle wheel suspension has a composite, transversely oriented, leaf spring which is vertically thick and stiff in end regions extending inward from each end of the spring past the vehicle body support area but is vertically thin and compliant in a middle region between the end regions. The spring is constructed of a long, longitudinally aligned fiber and resin composite which is split at each outer end of the middle region into upper and lower horizontal layers separated by a core having a tapered inner end and extending through the end region. The inserts provide the additional vertical thickness in the end regions without widening the middle region and may be made of a different material, such as a short, randomly oriented fiber and resin composite. The spring thus flexes easily in the heave mode, in which the thin middle region of the spring flexes vertically in opposition to each end.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 1998Date of Patent: February 20, 2001Assignee: General Motors CorporationInventors: Johnny Ray Gentry, Jason J.
