  • Publication number: 20180115934
    Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to access point selection. A set of beacon frame transmission data for a set of access points may be collected by a computing device. The beacon frame transmission data may include first and second subsets indicating respective frame success rates. The computing device may compare factors derived utilizing the respective frame success rates. The computing device may evaluate network capability data for the access points. The computing device may weight the beacon frame transmission data with respect to information indicating network security and encryption level have heavier weights than other factors, and identify that the first access point achieves an encryption level threshold. The computing device may use the beacon frame transmission data for the set of access points to determine to establish a connection utilizing the first access point. The computing device may establish the connection utilizing the first access point.

  • Patent number: 9649638
    Abstract: A continuous online process for rejuvenating whole stream of contaminated lean sulfolane in an extraction system is provided. A rejuvenator is installed in the solvent: circulation loop to remove the contaminants continuously to keep the solvent clean, effective and less corrosive. The rejuvenator includes a high pressure vessel with a removable cover and a round rack with vertical stainless steel tubes fitted in the high pressure vessel. A magnetic bar is placed in each stainless steel tube. A screen cylinder is installed outside the ring of stainless steel tubes. As the contaminated sulfolane is passed through the rejuvenator, the rejuvenator picks up contaminants. The rejuvenator can be dissembled to remove the contaminants periodically. The rejuvenator is simple in construction, reliable in operation, and low in operation and maintenance costs. With this rejuvenator, the extraction system operates at high efficiency and high capacity without the dreaded corrosion.

  • Patent number: 9623400
    Abstract: The present invention provides a catalyst for producing hydrogen and a preparing method thereof. The method includes the steps of adding a first metal source, a second metal source, a third metal source and a cerium source into a first organic solvent containing a surfactant to form a colloidal mixture, wherein a metal of the first metal source is a Group IIIB metal; a metal of the second metal source is selected from the group consisting of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and Group IIIB metals, and a metal of the third metal source is a transition metal; calcining the colloidal mixture to form a metal solid solution; and allowing the metal solid solution to be carried on a carrier to obtain the catalyst. When the catalyst of the present invention is used for an ethanol oxidation reformation, the reaction temperature of the ethanol oxidation reformation can be significantly decreased.
