  • Patent number: 8997186
    Abstract: A system including a controller having a data repository configured to store a first mapping associating a user to an Application Certificate and a second mapping associating the user to a user privilege. The system further includes an OPC Unified Architecture (UA) server configured to provide server access based on receiving the Application Certificate from an OPC UA client and enforcing the user privilege, in which the user privilege is retrievable based on the first and the second mappings.

  • Publication number: 20140324196
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to real-time debugging systems and methods. In one embodiment, a system that includes a server module and a client module can be provided. The server module can be executable on a first computer and can be adapted to use a native communications format for interactive transfer of industrial automation data between the first computer and at least one industrial automation element. The client module, which can be executable on the same computer as the server module or on a different computer, can include a debugging application configured to use a universal communications format for communicatively interacting with the server module for accessing the industrial automation data and debugging one or more programming portions associated with the industrial automation data.

  • Patent number: 8778037
    Abstract: A process is provided where a waste stream is directed to an evaporator that produces a vapor having volatile compounds. The vapor including the volatile compounds is directed through a vapor scrubber that contacts the volatile compounds with a scratching solution. The scrubbing solution reacts with the gaseous volatile compounds in the vapor such that the volatile compounds pass from a vapor state into the scrubbing solution and form volatile compounds in the liquid scrubbing solution. The scrubbing solution is collected and recycled.

  • Publication number: 20140097952
    Abstract: Systems and methods for comprehensive alarm management can be provided. In one embodiment, a system for monitoring subsystems can be provided. The system can include at least one memory configured to store computer-executable instructions; and at least one processor configured to access the at least one memory and execute the computer-executable instructions. The instructions can be configured to receive alarm information or information suitable for use in generating alarms from one or more sensors, devices or computing devices associated with a respective subsystem within the system. The instructions can be further configured to determine one or more alarm events based at least in part upon the alarm information, and generate one or more alarm messages based at least in part on the alarm events. The instructions can further be configured to display a subset of the alarm messages based at least upon a selection of one or more classifying criteria.

  • Publication number: 20130205708
    Abstract: An insulated vent chute and blocking assembly which can be inserted between adjacently disposed roof rafters of a building construction having a pitched or flat roof, the roof supported by a building wall. The assembly comprises: a generally flexible insulated body having a roof facing surface, an attic space facing surface, the surfaces spaced apart from each other to define a pair of longitudinal rafter facing sides, a top and a bottom transverse end, the ends connecting the sides; and a reflective substrate covering the attic space facing surface, the substrate for reflecting heat away from the attic space facing surface and back into attic insulation. The assembly is fabricated from a flexible insulated material, and can assume an arcuate form in embodiments when the body is inserted between adjacently disposed roof rafters in the building construction with a pitched or flat roof such that the bottom transverse end can contact the top of the building wall.

  • Patent number: 8491680
    Abstract: A gasifier waste stream from a gasification process is directed to a solids separator. A portion of the suspended solids in the waste stream is removed in the solids separator, producing slag and fly ash and a grey water effluent. The grey water effluent is directed to one or more ceramic membranes which remove at least portions of the remaining suspended solids in the grey water. Permeate from the ceramic membrane is directed to an evaporator located downstream from the ceramic membrane for further concentration. Placing the ceramic membrane upstream from the evaporator reduces fouling and plugging in the evaporator that would otherwise occur due to the suspended solids in the grey water.

  • Patent number: 8076274
    Abstract: A lubricating oil composition for a heavy duty diesel engine comprises a base oil, at least 0.6 mass % of an ash-free antioxidant and an overbased magnesium-containing detergent. The detergent provides greater than 0.05 mass % Mg based on the mass of the composition. Bore polishing in the engine is reduced for a given level of exhaust gas ash production.
