Abstract: The system and methods described herein allow users to apply for a purchase of a good from multiple providers using provider specific methodologies for generating offers for the product. For example, the system described herein may include a multi-layer architecture that includes interactive micro-services that communicate together in a bi-directional manner to create a normalized process for the purchase of a good, such as commercial goods/products (e.g. a vehicle) or real property. The micro-services may assess prequalification for a loan or financing for a good, followed by determining eligibility of the good for financing, and further followed by calculating pricing details for loans (e.g. for financing purchase of the good) that would be offered for a consumer's particular financial credentials, for each of a plurality of lenders. Prequalification and pricing may be performed on a good by good basis, or for a plurality of goods near or substantially simultaneously.

Abstract: The system and methods described herein allow users to give their applicant information when seeking to submit an inquiry associated with a product provided by at least one entity, and have various lender microservices run in parallel, segregated by entity, in a jailed and self-contained, autonomous environment. The result of these microservices may be returned as a response to the inquity, being determined autonomously for each respective entity based on one or more respective rule sets or executable logic for each respective entity. Payloads for multiple entities may be combined in a single output from the jailed and self-contained environment due to outputs from the environment being encrypted in a universal format, wherein the outputs are decrypted in a user session in an application, allowing the user to see the results of the respective responses of each of the at least one entity, to their inquiry.

Abstract: In a process for the recovery of cold from a methane-rich fluid for the cooling of a flow rich in carbon dioxide, cold is provided to a first heat exchanger for the cooling of the flow by the evaporation of an intermediate fluid by exchange of heat with the methane-rich fluid in order to form at least one condensed intermediate fluid flow at at least one pressure level; at least a part of the intermediate fluid evaporated in a second heat exchanger is condensed at at least one pressure into at least one flow.

Abstract: One aspect of the invention relates to a hydrocarbons fluid liquefaction system, having a first heat-exchange module having a pre-cooling exchanger having a pre-cooling circuit and a plurality of pre-cooling refrigerant circuits for pre-cooling the feed stream through the circulation of an expanded first mixed-refrigerant stream, and a second heat-exchange module having a liquefaction exchanger having a liquefaction circuit and a liquefaction refrigerant circuit for liquefying the feed stream through the circulation of an expanded second mixed-refrigerant stream, wherein each heat-exchange module has thermally insulating walls and a framework that allows the module to be transported and secured, and allows the first heat-exchange module to be stacked on top of the second heat-exchange module.

Abstract: A method for liquefying a stream of hydrocarbons from a feed stream, including introducing the feed stream and a first cooling stream into a first heat exchanger, extracting a plurality of partial cooling streams obtained from the first cooling stream from the heat exchanger via separate outlets, introducing each partial cooling stream into an expansion element to produce a plurality of biphasic cooling streams at different pressures, introducing each biphasic cooling stream into a phase separator element to produce a gaseous cooling stream which is diverted from the first exchanger and a liquid cooling stream which is introduced into the first exchanger via respective inlets, evaporating each liquid cooling stream by heat exchange with at least the feed stream and the first cooling stream so as to extract a cooled hydrocarbon stream at the outlet from the first heat exchanger and to extract a plurality of evaporated cooling streams.

Abstract: A method for liquefying a hydrocarbon stream using at least one heat exchanger of the plate and fin type having at least one first part and one second part, the first and second parts being physically separate and each comprising at least one stack of a plurality of plates that are parallel to one another and to a longitudinal direction that is substantially vertical, the plates of the first part and the plates of the second part being stacked in a stacking direction that is orthogonal to the plates, the plates being stacked with spacing so as to define between them a plurality of first passages for the flow of at least part of a second two-phase cooling stream in the first part and a plurality of second passages for the flow of at least part of a first two-phase cooling stream in the second part.

Abstract: A method for liquefying a hydrocarbon stream using a heat exchanger having a plurality of plates parallel to each other and to a longitudinal direction that is substantially vertical, the exchanger having a length measured in the longitudinal direction, the plates being stacked with spacing so as to define between them at least one first series of passages for the flow of at least part of a two-phase cooling stream vaporizing by exchanging heat with at least the hydrocarbon stream.
