Title: Method for measuring breath alcohol concentration and apparatus therefor
Inventor: EVANS NIGEL
IPC: G01N33/98
Filed: 2010-12-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for measuring breath alcohol concentration of a user. A flow of an expired breath sample is passed through a fuel cell sensor giving an output signal proportional to the amount of alcohol present in the breath sample. By measuring the flow rate, the volume of the breath sample may be calculated, whereas the breath alcohol concentration is calculated based on the fuel cell output signal. Both the sample volume and the breath alcohol concentration values are continually updated by integrating the measured instantaneous flow rate and the fuel cell output signal over time. If the user stops blowing,flow compensation is performed to obtain a compensated fuel cell output signal using a stored calibration volume. Hence, an improved method for accurately measuring the breath alcohol concentration of a test person is achieved, capable of handling varied expired volumes of breath,which obviates the need for a sampling mechanism.

Title: Removal of mercury and mercuric compounds from crude oil streams
Inventor: BRADEN MICHAEL L
IPC: B01D17/02
Filed: 2012-08-02
Abstract: The invention is directed towards a method of removing mercury bearing species from a hydrocarbon containing fluid. The method comprises the steps of: i) adding dithiocarbamate polymer to the fluid in an amount such that the number of mercury bonding sites on the polymer exceeds the amount of mercury atoms by at least 10% and ii) removing the mercury bearing dithiocarbamate polymer with a water/oil separation device. The invention relies upon an unexpected reversal in the solubility of dithiocarbamate polymer at very high concentrations. Because of the high solubility the polymer remains within the water phase of the hydrocarbon fluid and can be removed without the need for cumbersome precipitation methods and complicated solid liquid separation devices. As a result, the invention allows mercury contaminated crude oil to be easily rid of its mercury with easy to use equipment already present in a typical oil refinery.

Abstract: With a view to optimizing the resources needed to continue the flight upon the loss of at least one main engine, the invention seeks to unburden the propulsion system that has remained operative of all or some of the non-propulsive energy tappings through a continuously-operating additional generation of non-propulsive power. More specifically the method involves, using the power production unit GPP, constantly in operation during flight and taking over some (P GA) of the nominal total non-propulsive power (P TA) of the aircraft, to supply, almost instantaneously, increased non-propulsive powers (P SU, P MU, P lU) according to at least three respective emergency settings (RS, RM, RI) upon said engine failure. The GPP control and monitoring function assesses the time elapsed for each emergency setting (RS, RM, RI), and informs the data processing unit of this time with an alarm being emitted if the operating times (X max, Y max, Z max) allocated to each emergency setting (RS, RM, RI) are exceeded, and the emergency function adjusts the aircraft's non-propulsive power tappings between the main engines and the unit GPP either automatically or on the orders of the pilot.   Dans le but d'optimiser les ressources nécessaires à la poursuite du vol lors de la perte d'au moins un moteur principal, l'invention vise à décharger le système propulsif resté opérationnel de tout ou partie des prélèvements en énergie non propulsive par une gé -nération supplémentaire de puissance non propulsive, fonctionnant en permanence. Plus précisément le procédé consiste, à l'aide du groupe GPP fonctionnant en permanence en vol et prenant en charge une partie (P GA) de la puissance non propulsive totale no-minale (PTA) de l'aéronef, à fournir quasi instantanément, des puissances non propulsives augmentées (P su, Pm-u, Pru) selon au moins trois régimes d'urgence respectifs (RS, RM, RI) lors de ladite défaillance moteur. La fonction de contrôle et surveillance du GPP compte le temps écoulé pour chaque régime d'urgence (RS, RM, RI), en informe l'unité de traitement de données avec une émission d'alerte en cas de dépassement des durées de fonctionnement (Xmax, )(ma., Zmax) allouées à chaque régime d'urgence (RS, RIVI, RI), et la fonction d'urgence ajuste les prélèvements de puissance non propulsive de l'aéronef entre les moteurs principaux et le groupe GPP soit automatiquement soit par un ordre pilote.

Abstract: Merchants are classified according to their reliability in shipping products when promised and ability to resolve complaints. A merchant trustworthiness evaluator (MTE) automatically gathers data from users about purchases online from a merchant, including an order identifier and an estimated ship date. In one embodiment, the MTE collects data from customers about their purchases through the use of a conversion pixel, transmitted to the customer by the merchant at the time of purchase. The MTE obtains shipment information from the merchant or shipment carrier once an order has been shipped. The MTE correlates the shipment data with the order data and compares for each order the estimated or promised and actual shipment dates. The MTE scores merchants and classifies each merchant based on its score. Merchant classifications can then be provided to prospective customers.
