Abstract:
Detecting executable machine instructions in a data is accomplished by accessing a plurality of values representing data contained within a memory of a computer system and performing pre-processing on the plurality of values to produce a candidate data subset. The pre-processing may include determining whether the plurality of values meets (a) a randomness condition, (b) a length condition, and/or (c) a string ratio condition. The candidate data subset is inspected for computer instructions, characteristics of the computer instructions are determined, and a predetermined action taken based on the characteristics of the computer instructions.
Abstract:
A process for making styrene is disclosed that includes reacting toluene with a C1 source and a co-feed in the presence of a catalyst in a reactor to form a first product stream comprising styrene, ethylbenzene, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen; separating the hydrogen and carbon monoxide from the first product stream to form a second stream; separating the hydrogen from the second stream to form a third stream comprising hydrogen and a fourth stream comprising carbon monoxide; wherein the fourth stream is recycled to the reactor and forms at least a portion of the co-feed.
Abstract:
A process for making ethylbenzene and/or styrene by reacting toluene with methane is disclosed. In one embodiment the process can include reacting toluene with methane to form a product stream comprising ethylbenzene and further processing the ethylbenzene to form styrene in an existing styrene production facility.
Abstract:
A process for making ethylbenzene and/or styrene by reacting toluene with methane in one or more microreactors is disclosed. In one embodiment a method of revamping an existing styrene production facility by adding one or more microreactors capable of reacting toluene with methane to produce a product stream comprising ethylbenzene and/or styrene is disclosed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for aromatic conversion that includes contacting an alkene and an aromatic hydrocarbon with a nanocrystalline zeolite catalyst disposed within a reactor under alkylation conditions, wherein the nanocrystalline zeolite catalyst includes at least one zeolitic material and producing a product stream having a monoalkyl aromatic hydrocarbon.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus of staged injection of an oxidant into a feedstream within a reactor are disclosed. The staged injection of the oxidant can better disperse the catalytic reactions throughout the catalyst bed. The staged injection of the oxidant can lower the content of carbon oxides in the reaction product stream, which can reduce energy release from the reactor.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a dehydrogenation method that includes supplying a feed containing a hydrocarbon and steam into a dehydrogenation reactor containing a dehydrogenation catalyst, contacting the hydrocarbon and steam with the dehydrogenation catalyst to form a dehydrogenation product, wherein the dehydrogenation product comprises a dehydrogenated hydrocarbon, unreacted feed, steam and hydrogen, passing the dehydrogenation product through a membrane separator, and permeating hydrogen through a membrane positioned in the membrane separator. The hydrocarbon can be an alkyl aromatic and the dehydrogenated hydrocarbon can be a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon, optionally the hydrocarbon can be an alkane and the dehydrogenated hydrocarbon can be an alkene.
Abstract:
A method for the separation of hydrocarbon compounds utilizing a dividing wall distillation column is described. The dividing wall distillation column enables one or more side draw stream to be removed from the dividing wall distillation column in addition to an overhead stream and a bottoms stream.
