Patent CA-2632823-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FARSHID DARUSH
IPC: C10G65/02
Filed: 2006-12-08
Abstract: Applicants have developed a new residuum full hydroconversion slurry reactor system that allows the catalyst, unconverted oil and converted oil to circulate in a continuous mixture throughout an entire reactor with no confinement of the mixture. The mixture is partially separated in between the reactors to remove only the products and hydrogen gas, while permitting the unconverted oil and the slurry catalyst to continue on into the next sequential reactor. A portion of the unconverted oil is then converted to lower boiling point hydrocarbons, once again creating a mixture of unconverted oil, products, hydrogen, and slurry catalyst. Further hydroprocessing may occur in additional reactors, fully converting the oil. Additional oil may be added at the interstage feed inlet, possibly in combination with slurry. The oil may alternately be partially converted, leaving a highly concentrated catalyst in unconverted oil which can be recycled directly to the first reactor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved automated paper dispensing system for dispensing paper products in a restroom stall. The system provides a dispenser having a sensor for activation by a user and a signal emitter integrated therewith. The dispenser is arranged to both store a supply of paper products and automatically dispense, when the sensor is activated by the user, a portion of the supply of paper products. A transceiver is in communication with the signal emitter to receive a signal from the signal emitter when the supply of paper products is low in the dispenser.  The system also provides a micro-controller in communication with each of the transceiver and an electric strike mechanism so that, when the transceiver receives the signal from the at signal emitter that the supply of paper products is low in the dispenser, the transceiver transmits a signal to the micro-controller indicating the low product status, and a further locking instruction signal to the micro-controller. The monitor then is operably able to selectively transmit a locking signal to the electric strike mechanism to lock the door to the restroom stall until the supply of paper products is replenished in the dispenser.

A method is disclosed in which the transmission (40) of service-specific codes, stored on a number of different smartcards (10), to a portable device (30) is carried out. The portable device (30) then transmits one or more of said codes via several different communication connections (70) so that access to a service can be activated. By providing services to the corresponding authorised communication connection (70) a modular system is achieved, permitting multiple access for a user to services.
