    摘要: Embodiments include systems and methods of in-line mixing of hydrocarbon liquids from a plurality of tanks into a single pipeline. According to an embodiment, a method of admixing hydrocarbon liquids from a plurality of tanks into a single pipeline to provide in-line mixing thereof includes determining a ratio of a second fluid flow to a first fluid flow based on signals received from a tank flow meter in fluid communication with the second fluid flow and a booster flow meter in fluid communication with a blended fluid flow. The blended fluid flow includes a blended flow of the first fluid flow and the second fluid flow. The method further includes comparing the determined ratio to a pre-selected set point ratio thereby to determine a modified flow of the second fluid flow to drive the ratio toward the pre-selected set point ratio. The method further includes controlling a variable speed drive connected to a pump thereby to control the second fluid flow through the pump based on the determined modified flow, the pump being in fluid communication with the second fluid flow.

    摘要: A blood treatment apparatus having an extracorporeal circuit has a dialyzate circuit with a dialyzer, having a blood-side chamber, and a dialyzate-side chamber separated from the blood-side chamber by a membrane. The blood-side chamber is in fluid communication with the extracorporeal circuit and the dialyzate-side chamber is in fluid communication with the dialyzate circuit, and the apparatus has a preparation unit for online preparation of a solution. The apparatus has a first means for carrying out a priming mode and a second means for carrying out an initial treatment mode. The first means is configured to control the preparation unit to prepare a flushing solution having a pH of ≥7.3, with the extracorporeal circuit being filled with the flushing solution. The second means is configured to control the preparation unit to prepare the dialyzate having a pH of ≥7.3, with the dialyzate circuit being filled with the dialyzate.

    摘要: A microfluidic system includes a substrate, a set of input ports coupled to the substrate, and a set of output ports coupled to the substrate. The microfluidic system also includes a microfluidic processing system coupled to the substrate and including a plurality of processing sites. The microfluidic processing system is coupled to the set of input ports and the set of output ports. The microfluidic system further includes one or more microfluidic logic devices coupled to the substrate and operable to control at least a portion of the microfluidic processing system.

    摘要: Inspection attributes including non-destructive (NDE) examination information related to piping connections in a finished piping installation, are stored in an attribute database with relative location information. Inspection attributes can be entered and updated in the attribute database in the field using a client-server software application and mobile client devices. Components in the field will be serially marked, which will streamline field data entry. Direct field entry of attribute information in the attribute database represents a significant efficiency enhancement over prior methods. A complete chronological inspection history for component connections is created.

    摘要: Some embodiments may include a water supply system for supplying water based on a predetermined planned daily supply amount of water. While the worries supplied, it may be determined whether a second time has reached after a predetermined time passed from a first time. When it is determined that the second time has reached, an accumulated amount of the supplied water may be measured. A difference between the measured accumulated amount of the supplied water and the planned daily supply amount of water may be calculated. The planned daily supply amount of water may be corrected by adding the calculated difference to the planned daily supply amount of water after the second time. Water may be supplied based on the corrected planned daily supply amount of water.
