Title: Hydrogen supply method and system
Inventor: OATES ROMMEL M
IPC: F17C13/02
Filed: 2013-02-11
Abstract: A method and system for supplying additional hydrogen from a reservoir of stored hydrogen in a salt cavern to a hydrogen pipeline to assist in meeting customer demand for hydrogen is provided. Contaminants introduced while the stored hydrogen stream is in the salt cavern may cause the crude hydrogen stream to not have the required product purity specification. The stored hydrogen is removed from the salt cavern as a crude hydrogen stream and thereafter diluted with higher purity hydrogen formed from the pipeline to form a hydrogen product stream at or below the product purity specification. The hydrogen product can be formed without removal of any of the contaminants in the crude stream, thereby creating a more cost effective and simplified supply process compared to conventional processes employing a salt cavern for hydrogen supply.

Inventor: GEORGE DARRYL ANTHONY
IPC: C21D1/18
Filed: 2014-10-31
Abstract: An improved crushing tool for the processing of aggregates, and a heat treatment method for metals used in the fabrication of such tools, is provided. The crushing tool may comprise an attachment portion having a relatively low material hardness and a crushing portion having, in comparison to the attachment portion, a relatively high material hardness. For example, the hardness of the attachment portion may be in the range of 20-35 HRC, and that of the crushing portion may be in the range of 50-60 HRC. Use of tool-grade steel, such as AISI S7 steel, may thereby result in a tool offering a compromise between the hardness (wear-resistance) of the crushing portion and the toughness of the attachment portion. A heat treatment process for the tool-grade steel may involve distinct heating, quenching, and tempering cycles in order to achievable desirable material properties.
