Abstract: An apparatus provides a single split-bus electrical panel with back-feed circuit breakers arranged and sized so that, for example, a single 225A rated split-bus electrical panel with a 200A main breaker may be used to connect a far higher photovoltaic power source than conventional configurations. The circuit breakers are connected to a Microgrid Interconnection Device for isolation of critical loads during a utility power outage. A first panel section of the split-bus panel is connected to a utility and supplies power to non-critical loads. A second panel section is connected to a renewable power source with battery back-up to supply power to the critical loads and is connected through a relay to the utility, in parallel with the first panel section, to supply both utility power and renewable power when there is no outage. The relay is configured to isolate the second panel when there is a utility outage.

Abstract: An apparatus provides a single split-bus electrical panel with a first panel section that supplies power to non-critical loads and a second panel section to supply photoelectric power to critical loads. A patch panel associated with the split-bus electrical panel is configured to enable an installer to selectively connect factory installed connections to either: (1) connect each panel section directly to utility power for full utility power to both panel sections; (2) alternately to connect the second panel section to the utility power via a microgrid interconnection device when the second panel section is presently at least partially powered by back-up photovoltaic power, or (3) alternately connect both panel sections to full back-up photovoltaic power.

Abstract: An apparatus provides a single split-bus electrical panel with back-feed circuit breakers arranged to allow connection of a Microgrid Interconnection Device (MID) for isolation of a critical loads section from a standards loads section during back-up operation due to a utility power outage. A first panel section of the split-bus electrical panel supplies power to non-critical standards loads in a residence. A second panel section of the split-bus electrical panel supplies power to critical loads in the residence, which must continue to be powered during a utility power outage.

Abstract: A method of treating a contaminated oil comprising preparing a brine solution, adding ozone to the brine solution to produce ozonated brine solution, adding a volume of ozonated brine solution to a volume of the contaminated oil, mixing the volumes of contaminated oil and ozonated brine solution with coagulant and surfactant at a shear rate sufficiently high so as to cause formation of an emulsion of the contaminated oil and the brine solution, stopping the mixing, thereby causing the emulsion to separate into an aqueous brine liquid phase and an oil liquid phase, separating the brine liquid phase from the oil liquid phase, and separating at least one contaminant from the oil liquid phase to produce a volume of purified oil.

Abstract: A method of treating an oil well or a gas well to restore production capacity. In certain embodiments, the method comprises mixing a coagulant, a surfactant, and water or production brine to produce a well treatment mixture; injecting the treatment mixture into the oil well; operating the oil well to distribute the treatment mixture throughout the oil well; and withdrawing a the treatment mixture, oil, production brine, and oil waste constituents from the oil well. As a result of the treatment compositions and methods, the oil waste constituents may include dissolved and or delaminated paraffin removed from surfaces of the oil well. In certain embodiments, following treatment, the oil well is substantially free of paraffin deposits.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for exposing one or more points of interest through a visual interface, such as a map. For example, the visual interface may correspond to a location displayed at a first level of detail (e.g., a state level of granularity). One or more points of interest (e.g., coffee shops within the state) may be clustered to generate one or more clustering halos (e.g., a first clustering halo comprising coffee shops within a city), which may be populated within the visual interface. The visual interface may be transitioned into various levels of detail, such as a first transitioned visual interface comprising points of interest at a city level, a second transitioned visual interface comprising points of interest at a building/street level of detail, etc. Portals corresponding to points of interest may be hydrated with imagery for such points of interest.
