Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for gathering and segregation of oil extracted from a resource fields with a plurality of disparate sources in relatively close proximity. Instead of assigning a quality and/or destination for crude oil from an extraction source based on the origin of the crude oil, the crude oil can be characterized while still in local storage at or near the wellhead prior to transport to a refinery, a shipping or pipeline terminal, or another type destination for crude oil. Based on the characterization, one or more characteristics of the crude oil can be used to assign the crude oil to one of a plurality of destinations. The crude oil can then be transported to the assigned destination.

Abstract: Compositions based on effluents and/or products from FCC processing of a high saturate content, low heteroatom content feedstock are provided. By processing a high saturate content, low heteroatom content feed under various types of FCC conditions, a variety of compositions with unexpected compositional features and/or unexpected properties can be formed. The unexpected compositional features and/or unexpected properties can correspond to features and/or properties associated with one or more of the total effluent, a naphtha boiling range portion of effluent, a distillate or light cycle oil boiling range portion of the effluent, and/or a bottoms portion of the effluent.

Abstract: A system for growing and harvesting algae biomass includes a photo-bioreactor suitable for algae growth in water and a filter unit in fluid communication with the photo-bioreactor. An algae slurry, when at least partially contained within the photo-bioreactor, generates hydrostatic fluid pressure that exclusively drives the algae slurry to the filter unit and discharges a permeate.

Abstract: Processes for the catalytic conversion of alcohols and/or ethers to olefins over zeolite catalysts are described. Self-bound ZSM-5 and metal containing variants, such as Zn ZSM-5, produce high yields of olefins, particularly C3+ olefins, between 250 and 450° C.

Abstract: A system for growing algae includes a gas concentrator configured to receive a first gas containing CO2 at a first concentration and discharge a second gas containing CO2 at a second concentration higher than the first concentration, and a photobioreactor containing algae in an algae slurry and fluidically coupled to the gas concentrator to receive the second gas. A recycling line extends from a gas outlet on the photobioreactor to remove a third gas from the photobioreactor for future use in the photobioreactor.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for conversion of oxygenate feeds to distillate boiling range products using multiple moving bed reactor stages. The systems and methods allow for multiple stages to be used while avoiding the need for distillation or other boiling point based separation as the mixture of feed and effluent is passed between stages. Instead, a stripping gas is used to disengage the feed and effluent from the catalyst solids. In combination with an improved moving bed reactor design, this can allow substantially all of the feed and effluent from a first moving bed reactor stage to be passed into a second moving bed reactor stage, even when the feed and effluent include both vapor and liquid phase portions.

Abstract: A refractory-lined equipment includes a vessel defining an interior at least partially lined with a refractory material, and a nozzle assembly coupled to the vessel and extending into the interior. The nozzle assembly includes an outer sleeve fixed to the sidewall and extending through an aperture defined in the sidewall, the outer sleeve defining a central passageway, and a nozzle cartridge assembly positionable within the central passageway and including an inner sleeve, a refractory lining disposed about the inner sleeve, and a nozzle positioned within the inner sleeve. The nozzle cartridge assembly is removably coupled to the outer sleeve external to the vessel.

Abstract: In some embodiments a process includes introducing an aqueous solution to a first hydrocarbon solvent to form an emulsion, wherein the aqueous solution comprises an oxidizing agent containing solution and a surfactant containing solution. The process further includes introducing a cement to the emulsion to form a first mixture within a reactor, wherein the cement comprises a butyl rubber elastomer and a second hydrocarbon solvent that is the same as or different than the first hydrocarbon solvent. The process further includes introducing a halogen source to the first mixture contained within the reactor to form a second mixture comprising a halobutyl rubber elastomer. The process further includes introducing a neutralizing agent with the second mixture to form a third mixture. The process further includes isolating the halobutyl rubber elastomer from the third mixture.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for low temperature separation of sweep gas from desorbed components. This can allow for performance of sorption/desorption cycles at reduced temperatures and/or pressures. Methanol is an example of a sweep gas that can be used for desorption at reduced temperatures. CO2 is an example of a component that can be sorbed and desorbed using a sorption/desorption cycle with reduced temperatures and/or pressures.

Abstract: Advantaged separation of xylene isomers may be realized by separating o-xylene and other components, such as styrene, from an aromatic hydrocarbon mixture comprising m-xylene and p-xylene. Separation of xylene isomers may comprise: providing an aromatic hydrocarbon mixture comprising at least o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene; separating the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture into a first stream enriched in o-xylene and lean in m-xylene and p-xylene relative to the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture, and a second stream enriched in m-xylene and p-xylene and lean in o-xylene relative to the aromatic hydrocarbon mixture; and separating the second stream into a third stream enriched in p-xylene and lean in m-xylene relative to the second stream and a fourth stream comprising m-xylene.
