Publication number: 20240144043Abstract: A method for training a machine-learning module of a computer-implemented prediction model for predicting product quality parameter values for one or more quality parameters of a chemical product produced by a chemical production plant. The production plant includes a plurality of sensors, each of which is configured to acquire process parameter values for one or more process parameters of a chemical process carried out by the production plant for producing the chemical product during operation of the production plant. A priori information about the production plant and the process carried out by the production plant is used, including chronological sequence information about a chronological sequence of the process carried out within the production plant, for which sensors sensor-specific time shifts between an acquisition time of training process parameter values and a production time of a product unit, during the production of which the corresponding training process parameter value was acquired.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicants: Uhde Inventa-Fischer GmbH, thyssenkrupp AGInventors: Robert HELTERHOFF, Heinrich KOCH, Matthias SCHOENNAGEL, Christopher SEIBEL, Georg SIEBER, Mylène SPEISSER, Sophie RUOSHAN WEI

Patent number: 10704007Abstract: A composition comprises the reaction product of a dithiophosphate derivative and an amine. The reaction product is present in the composition in an amount of at least about 25 wt. %. The composition may include additional components. A method of forming the composition comprises the step of combining the dithiophosphate derivative and the amine to form the composition. A method of increasing thermal stability of a dithiophosphate derivative comprises the step of combining the dithiophosphate derivative and an amine. The dithiophosphate derivative can decompose to form hydrogen sulfide (H2S). However, the amine substantially prevents thermal decomposition of the dithiophosphate derivative. An example of the dithiophosphate derivative is 3-(di-isobutoxy-thiophosphorylsulfanyl)-2-methyl-propanoic acid. An example of the amine is ditridecyl amine. The composition can be used for a variety of applications.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2018Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: BASF SEInventors: Michael Dennis Hoey, Eugene Scanlon, Frederick Mensah, Douglas S.

Publication number: 20070171644Abstract: Strong, fire-retardant material is constructed in such a way as to wrap around metal and non-metal, round or square support columns making them more attractive and environmentally pleasing. The material is especially made to wrap around vertical or horizontal poles such as deck poles and house pilings but is not limited to these applications. Strong nylon tie straps and Velcro strips attach the material firmly to the support column. These methods allow the material to be easily removed and another material color or image installed. The material is made to accommodate a range of pole diameters thus allowing one size to fit many pole circumferences. The material may be embellished with digital print images, light strips, overhead light assemblies, solid colors, striped colors, ascending bubbles complementing the material's images and top-mounted craft assemblies. These craft assemblies wrap around and attach to the pole to compliment the appropriate material design.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2006Publication date: July 26, 2007Applicant: POLEPANTS, LLCInventor: Robert Seibel

Publication number: 20070130326Abstract: An SSL VPN gateway or other type of secure gateway is operative to control access to an enterprise network of a communication system. The gateway in accordance with an aspect of the invention comprises an alarm manager. The alarm manager receives an alarm from a vendor product that is part of a set of internal resources of the enterprise network, and routes the alarm to an external service provider for processing. The gateway receives from the service provider, responsive to the alarm, a federated identity which encompasses a plurality of technicians, expert systems or other servicing elements of the service provider. The gateway may grant one or more particular servicing elements of the service provider access to the alarm-generating vendor product based on the federated identity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2005Publication date: June 7, 2007Inventors: Adonny Raphael, Robert Seibel

Publication number: 20060037063Abstract: A system for controlling network access to products. The system includes a security appliance connected to a product under operational control of a first entity, a product connection platform and a user terminal under operational control of a second entity, the product connection platform being accessed by the user terminal, and a trust relationship established between the first entity and the second entity based on predetermined criteria between the first entity and the second entity, the trust relationship being represented by a certificate or public/private key exchange. Authentication of access by a user of the user terminal of the second entity to the product of the first entity is deferred to the product connection platform of the second entity based on the predetermined criteria of the trust relationship, whereupon if authentication is granted, the user is provided access to the product.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2004Publication date: February 16, 2006Inventors: Merlon Clemmons, Subrata Mazumdar, Robert Seibel, TK Srinivas, Sriram Viswanathan
