  • Patent number: 10625222
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for controlling the antifoam injection based on the pressure differential of the column. More specifically, the present invention relates to a process for controlling the antifoam injection based on the pressure differential of an aromatics extraction unit using an intelligent differential pressure transmitter. The controller communicates with the antifoam injection system so that the antifoam is injected to the unit only when it is required.

  • Publication number: 20200096149
    Abstract: An assembly creates annular voids in concrete around the distal end of cylindrical tubes. A cap has a flat top and a cylindrical, depending skirt. An annular, foam plug extends between the inside of the skirt and the outer diameter of the tube. The plug has an undeformed inner diameter smaller than an outer diameter of the tube to create an interference fit around the tube and keep concrete out when the cap is on the end of the tube. The plug has a radial thickness of 0.3 to 1 inch, and has an axial length of 1 to 3 inches, with a bottom of the plug located at a bottom of the skirt. The cap is glued to the end of the tube for pressure testing. After the tube is entrained in concrete, the cap and plug are removed to leave a void in the concrete surface.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods and systems for adapting workflows for the processing of database records. More specifically, the records management and processing system can maintain a plurality of records in a database. Each record can comprise a record of a service provided to a consumer by a service provider of a plurality of service providers. For each record of the plurality of records, an expected result from taking an additional action on the record can be determined. A set of records from the plurality of records and having a common attribute value can be determined based on the determined expected result for each record of the plurality of records. The identified records can be processed according to one or more workflows executed by the records management and processing system.

  • Patent number: 10295556
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for detecting the occurrence of events utilizing data taken from multiple mobile devices in a wireless communications network. At least a first set and a second set of data is received at the network from a first and second mobile device. The first and second sets of data corresponding to vibration and audio data taken from the mobile devices is analyzed to determine that each set of data corresponds to the occurrence of an instance of an event. An action to perform is then determined based on the occurrences of the instances of the event.

  • Patent number: 10251425
    Abstract: A vaporizing device generally having a tank, power component, battery, and shroud is disclosed. The power component may include a frame defining a slot configured to receive the tank in an upright position, such that a portion of the tank is adjacent to the power component when the tank is in position. The battery may be coupled to the frame of the power component. The shroud may be configured to be positioned around the battery and coupled to the frame. The battery may be activated when the shroud is compressed radially inward. The device may include a port for connection to an external power supply for recharging the battery. The device may be portable with a generally compact configuration in order to allow a user to comfortably hold the device in the palm of the hand.
