Title: Process for extracting ethane and heavier hydrocarbons from lng
Inventor: WINNINGHAM HORACE G
IPC: F25J3/00
Filed: 2005-08-26
Abstract: A process for the extraction and recovery of ethane and heavier hydrocarbons (C2+) from LNG. The process covered by this patent maximizes the utilization of the beneficial cryogenic thermal properties of the LNG to extract and recover C2+ form the LNG using a unique arrangement of heat exchange equipment, a cryogenic fractionation column and processing parameters that essentially eliminates (or greatly reduces) the need for gas compression equipment minimizing capital cost, fuel consumption and electrical power requirements. This invention may be used for one or more of the following purposes: to condition LNG so that send-out gas delivered from an LNG  receiving and regasification terminal meets commercial natural gas quality specifications; to condition LNG to make Lean LNG that meets fuel quality specifications and standards required by LNG powered vehicles and other LNG  fueled equipment; to condition LNG to make Lean LNG so that it can be used to make CNG meeting specifications and standards for commercial CNG fuel; to recover ethane, propane and/or other hydrocarbons heavier then methane from LNG for revenue enhancement, profit or other commercial reasons.
Patent CA-2622778-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GILLAM HOWARD W
IPC: F16G11/00
Filed: 2008-02-25
Abstract: The Rope Stop Handle which provides leverage is to be used for the opening and closing of the discharge spouts on larger bags such as one tonne mini bulk bags. The Rope Stop Handle with its eye bolt is a versatile device because it can be used for other applications, such as tie down and tarp applications. It consists of three components made primarily of half inch PVC fittings and pipe. Depending on economic viability of the device it may be formed by molds. Downward thumb pressure on the piston prevents the compression spring from applying resistance and causes a proportionately larger opening for the ropes to pass through. Upon releasing the piston causes the compression spring to apply resistance making the hole smaller. The threaded mechanism makes the spring resistance adjustable. The resistance can be decreased to make depressing the piston easier for the operator. The resistance can be increased to ensure a more secure hold on the ropes. The threaded mechanism at bottoming out provides direct force from a bolt securely clamping the ropes.

Abstract: A stable topical alcohol-free aerosol foam containing one or more keratolytic agents is provided. The foam-forming formulation is an emulsion which contains an HFA propellant and one or more keratolytic agents. The emulsion has an oil phase and an aqueous, i.e. water-containing, phase. The active agent(s) may be present in either phase of the emulsion or dispersed in the emulsion. The oil phase may consist at least in part of the HFA propellant. Either or both of the oil phase and the aqueous phase may contain one or more surfactants, emulsifiers, emulsion stabilizers, buffers, and/or other excipients. The foam is stable on the skin, for example, for at least 5 minutes at body temperature, preferably at least 20 minutes at body temperature, and disappears into the skin upon rubbing or after prolonged standing. In one embodiment, the formulation contains an HFA propellant which does not contain additional co- solvents or co-propellants. The formulations demonstrate reduced intensity of the odor and/or color associated with the keratolytic agent(s) as compared to conventional formulations containing keratolytic agents.

Title: Direct tracking of keywords to ads/text
Inventor: ERROR BRETT MICHAEL
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2006-10-30
Abstract: The present invention overcomes the deficiencies and limitations of the prior art by providing a direct tracking module for keywords. In one embodiment, the system comprises a direct tracking module, a bid management system, a web analytics tool and a search engine. The direct tracking module interfaces with the bid management system to provide user interfaces for reviewing data about specific keyword and ads/text pairs. The direct tracking module uses unique codes to provide specific information about which combination of keyword and text generated specific Web traffic, such as traffic that generated a sale.  This is particularly advantageous because the keyword/text pairs that generate a large number of sales can be reused to generate future traffic. Similarly, keyword/text pairs that do not generate Web traffic can be eliminated from the words that are purchased by the advertiser. Thus, the present invention greatly reduces the uncertainty presently provided by keyword purchasing schemes offered by present-day search engines. The present invention also includes a novel method for the direct tracking of keywords to ads/text.

Filed: 2007-05-17
Abstract: The present invention provides a kitchen ventilation hood for ventilating the area above a cooking area and for exhausting air containing cooking by-products from a cooking station to an external environment through an exhaust duct while using a reduced airflow. The kitchen ventilation hood of the present invention is designed to minimize the required airflow through the hood in order to thoroughly evacuate the cooking by-products. The kitchen ventilation hood of the current invention has a structure incorporating an arched interior hood surface that directs the air to be ventilated through the air intake gap and the grease filter. The more efficient airflow resulting from the arched interior hood surface allows for removal of cooking by-products with a lower airflow than that required by currently available ventilation hoods. As such, the kitchen ventilation hood of the present invention represents a significant improvement over prior ventilation hoods.
