Abstract: The present disclosure relates to characterization of biological samples by amplification detection in a porous substrate. By way of example, a porous substrate may include amplification reagents configured to provide a signal when released during amplification. When a sample is applied, amplification occurs as a wavefront from the application point, and the time that the wavefront reaches a distance on the porous substrate is related to an initial concentration of the sample applied. By detecting the distance travelled by the amplification products at one or more time points, an initial concentration of the sample may be estimated.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of reducing fouling and increasing the efficiency of microfiltration and ultrafiltration systems by adding an effective amount of a tannin-based polymer to wastewater containing high concentrations of total dissolved solids (TDS), such as produced water, prior to filtration. Additional pretreatment to separate out and remove coagulated solids before filtration is not required. Typically, the tannin polymer used in treating the process water is a modified tannin comprised of a Mannich reaction product of an amine, an aldehyde, and a tannin.

Abstract: Provided herein are copolymers and copolymer compositions that are both hydrophilic and oleophobic. The copolymers include structural units derived from a fluoroalkyl monomer and a zwitterionic monomer. It further relates to membranes formed by coating a porous substrate with ihe copoiymeric compositions. The copolymeric coating imparts hydrophilicity and oleophobicity/oil-tolerance to the membranes. The uses of such membranes as microiiltration membrane or ultrafiltration membrane are also provided.

Abstract: A system may include a performance token creation node associated with an industrial asset. The performance token creation node may receive information about the industrial asset performance model and access a set of industrial asset parameters associated with the industrial asset. An industrial asset performance prediction, associated with at least one performance metric, may then be determined based on the industrial asset performance model and industrial asset parameters. The performance token creation node may then create a performance token contract in accordance with the industrial asset performance prediction and record information about the performance token contract via a secure, distributed transaction ledger.
