Abstract: There is provided a process, and a device, for the treatment of crude oil, component(s) of crude, or mixtures thereof, to convert components of said hydrocarbon liquid to products having boiling points that are lower than the boiling points of said components prior to treatment. The process comprises subjecting crude to be treated to ultrasound vibrations and to an electromagnetic field emitted by a an electromagnetic field generator; wherein the electromagnetic field emitted by said electromagnetic field generator comprises a component of electromagnetic field modulated by an electromagnetic field emitted from the crude to be treated on the exposure thereof to ultrasound vibrations.

Abstract: A system including an energy unit with an outlet for flue gases is disclosed. The system comprises a regulating nozzle for injecting water into the flue gases from the outlet, a condenser apparatus for extracting water from flue gases, a pump for pumping water from the condenser apparatus to the regulating nozzle, the water devoid of any chemical treatment, and a processor for receiving sensor data, calculating target water content of the flue gases at 100% humidity and a dew point of the flue gases and, calculating an amount of water to inject into the flue gases for: 1) increasing a water content of the flue gases to 100% humidity; 2) lowering a temperature of the flue gases to below the dew point and 3) such that the water is absorbed by the flue gases, and transmitting control signals to the regulating nozzle to inject said amount of water.

Abstract: A method for organizing task data used in customer relationship management systems in which task data is decomposed into a set of business activity classes including a set of business task classes, where the business task classes are combined through association or multiple inheritance to create the business activity class. Each task class can be further decomposed into a base task class and a set of task characteristic classes where task definitions may be modified by associating additional task characteristic classes to the base task class.
