Abstract: Methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) conversion may be performed with forward methanol processing. Methanol may be fed to a first reactor where it may be catalytically converted under dimethyl ether formation conditions in the presence of a first catalyst to form a product mixture comprising dimethyl ether (DME), methanol, and water. The DME may be separated from the methanol and the water and delivered to a second reactor. In the second reactor, the DME may be catalytically converted under MTG conversion conditions in the presence of a second catalyst to form a second product mixture comprising gasoline hydrocarbons and light hydrocarbon gas. The methanol and the water from the first reactor may be separated further to obtain substantially water-free methanol, which may be delivered to the second reactor. The separation of methanol from the water may be performed using the light hydrocarbon gas to effect stripping of the methanol.

Abstract: A process and system that use the heat produced in the generation of Syngas to provide heat to an endothermic reaction zone are disclosed. A method for providing heat to an endothermic reaction may comprise producing Syngas in a reforming reactor. The method may further comprise recovering heat from the producing the Syngas to heat an endothermic reaction stream in a heat transfer zone. The method may further comprise allowing reactants in the endothermic reaction stream to react to form an endothermic reaction product stream. The method may further comprise withdrawing the endothermic reaction product stream from the heat transfer zone.

Abstract: A method and system for direct quantification of the concentration of biomolecules in algal biomass. The biomolecules include lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates. An algae slurry is cultivated within a cultivation vessel, and algal biomass is harvested therefrom. A portion of biomass is analyzed using solvent-lipid analysis to extract lipids and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is used to quantify the biomolecular concentration of the biomass.

Abstract: Embodiments of an invention disclosed herein relate to methods for performing formation evaluation of a formation or formation's surrounding to identify and characterize the abundance and morphology of non-ionic conductor grains, “c-grains”, within the formations that are evaluated by formation evaluation (FE) tools. The methods and related systems as disclosed herein are directed to correcting any existing FE logs that can be adversely affected by the presence of c-grains in the detection volume of FE tools, and/or obtaining new FE information that is unavailable by the application of existing FE methods.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for interfacing multiple layers of optimization for a model of one or more processes in a processing environment to achieve increased or maximized stability in the underlying layer. To improve consistency between the solutions at the different model levels, the lower level of optimization can have extra constraints added to the optimization problem which target variables at their unconstrained values in the upper layer of optimization. The systems and methods can facilitate selection of variables to receive an external target such that stability of the solution is improved or maximized. This can be achieved, at least in part, by identifying variables that provide a reduced or minimized condition number for a sub-matrix in the lower level model when an additional external constraint is applied. The sub-matrix with the reduced or minimized condition number can correspond to a partitioned portion of the gain matrix that corresponds to unconstrained independent variables and constrained dependent variables.
