  • Patent number: 12333499
    Abstract: One or more embodiments describe techniques for proactively connecting members of an organization together based on detected interest in a particular topic. The system analyzes a profile of a member to detect a particular topic associated with the member, and based on evaluating a set of interactions that another member of the organization had regarding the particular topic, generates an overall connection score for rating a connection between the second member and the particular topic. Responsive to determining that the overall connection score meets a threshold value, the system transmits a communication to generate a connection between the two members, and any other members whose overall connection scores meet the threshold value, for initiating collaboration on the particular topic amongst the various connected members.

  • Publication number: 20250144548
    Abstract: A reaction system includes a vessel having a gas inlet and a gas outlet, a liquid within the vessel, a solid phase and a gas phase present within the vessel, and at least one liquid separator disposed within the vessel. The liquid has an upper liquid surface within the vessel, and the liquid separator is configured to remove at least a portion of liquid droplets generated based on the gas phase and the solid phase passing through the liquid.

  • Publication number: 20250099972
    Abstract: A process for purifying a solid that has a contaminant adhered to a surface of the solid includes passing the solid through a mechanical agitator, agitating the solid comprising the contaminant adhered to the surface of the solid in the mechanical agitator, removing at least a portion of the contaminant from the surface of the solid based on the agitating to form a purified solid, and removing the purified solid from the mechanical agitator.

  • Publication number: 20240299899
    Abstract: A direct contact heat exchanger for a molten media reactor can include a plurality of trays or stages disposed in a vessel, a molten media flow path configured to pass a molten media through the plurality of trays or stages, and a gas pathway disposed through the plurality of trays or stages. The gas pathway is configured to directly contact a gas phase fluid with the molten media on the plurality of trays or stages.

  • Publication number: 20080004616
    Abstract: An axial elongate bipolar tissue sealer/cutter and method of use by a surgeon for electrosurgery on tissue has a handle. A chassis on the handle extends axially for axial movement. A tube may move axial relative to the chassis. An effector on a distal end of the chassis first contacts tissue with axial movement. The effector provides bipolar electrosurgery. A member extending from the distal end is opposite the patient end of the tube. A part on the member is transverse to the axis to conduct electrosurgery. First and second bipolar electrodes on the effector and part are electrically isolated. A generator for bipolar electrosurgery supplies the electrodes. An activator is movably supported on the handle connects to the tube and/or chassis to axially move the patient end and its effector relative to the part. Tissue and bodily fluid therebetween are sealed or cut through application of compression and bipolar electrosurgery between the first and second electrodes.
