  • Publication number: 20250147054
    Abstract: Calibration of components of a liquid handling system are provided. As the accuracy of the components of the liquid handling system enable operations of such components, each of a moveable stage and associated attachments (e.g., pipette) and a material handling gripper system are calibrated from time-to-time. In the case of the moveable stage and associated attachments, an affixed calibration probe may be used to locate a particular spatial location at a calibration target slot. In the case of the material handling gripper system, an affixed calibration pin similarly may be used to locate a particular spatial location at a calibration target slot. Based on the movements of the moveable stage and associated attachments and the material handling gripper system to move to and find the particular spatial location, each of these systems may be calibrated.

  • Publication number: 20250145894
    Abstract: A process includes flowing a catalyst composition comprising catalyst particles into a radial flow moving bed reactor, wherein the catalyst particles move by gravity through the radial flow moving bed reactor to an exit point of the radial flow moving bed reactor, wherein the catalyst particles form a moving catalyst bed in the radial flow moving bed reactor, flowing a light hydrocarbon feed stream comprising C1 to C3 alkanes into the radial flow moving bed reactor in a manner so that the light hydrocarbon feed stream flows radially inward or radially outward through the moving catalyst bed and thereby contacts the catalyst particles under reaction conditions to produce a product effluent stream comprising a C2 to C10 hydrocarbon product and hydrogen, and flowing the product effluent stream from the radial flow moving bed reactor.

  • Publication number: 20250143398
    Abstract: A hard hat with symmetric front and back mounting ridges to support a headlamp is described. The hard hat provides mounting ridges to receive insertion slots of a rigid mounting bracket that fit around the ridges. The rigid mounting bracket includes channels to loop a strap through the channels and support a lamp on the bracket. The strap may include a hook and loop fastener system to enable attachment of a variety of lamps to the rigid support bracket.

  • Publication number: 20250146855
    Abstract: Provided is a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) sensor adapter. The sensor adapter may include two chambers. The first chamber may include a tortuous pathway for fluid and/or air flow. The second chamber may be fluidly sealed or separated from the first chamber and may house electrical components. The tortuous pathway may include varying stepped segments having a decreasing diameter from a proximal toward a distal end. For example, a first segment at the proximal end may have a larger diameter than a second, middle segment. An entrance to a third segment from the second segment may have a greatly reduced size. The tortuous pathway may further include a vent inlet positioned at approximately the same height as the entrance but requiring an approximate 180° turn therebetween. The inlet may extend into two opposite substantially horizontal portions that each lead to a vent outlet on opposite sides of the sensor adapter. The turn from the inlet to the substantially horizontal portions may be approximately 90°.
