Performing Temperature Standardization Of The Volume Of A Liquid Product At One Or More Points Of Physical Measurement
US Patent:
7178561, Feb 20, 2007
Filed:
Feb 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/062323
Inventors:
Vincent J. Memmott - Centerville UT, US
John D. Hillam - Perry UT, US
Richard D. Peterson - Perry UT, US

Assignee:
Flying J, Inc. - Ogden UT
International Classification:
B65B 1/04
US Classification:
141 1, 141 83, 141 94, 702155
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for performing temperature standardization of the volume of a liquid product from a distributor to a consumer. Using a volume measurement device and a temperature measurement device located at a rack, a storage tank, and a dispenser, a gross volume and temperature of the liquid product at, respectively, the rack, the storage tank, and the dispenser can be measured. Volume data indicative of the gross volume and temperature data indicative of the temperature can be generated. A time-stamp system at each of the rack, the storage tank, and the dispenser allocates a time-stamp to each of the volume data and the temperature data so that a reconciliation process can use each of the time-stamps, the temperature data, and the volume data to reconcile gross to net volumes at a single point in time.
Collecting And Communicating Temperature And Volume Data Directly From A Dispenser
US Patent:
7181361, Feb 20, 2007
Filed:
Feb 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/061864
Inventors:
Vincent J. Memmott - Centerville UT, US

Assignee:
Flying J, Inc. - Ogden UT
International Classification:
B65B 1/30
US Classification:
702130
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for collecting and communicating temperature and volume data directly from a dispenser for use during a book to physical reconciliation process. The temperature and volume readings can be received directly from a dispenser by at least one of a retail system and a central inventory management system. The method can include collecting flow data indicative of a volume of a liquid product dispensed from the dispenser at a plurality of times during a defined time interval and collecting temperature data indicative of a temperature of the liquid product dispensed from the dispenser at the plurality of times during the defined interval. Once collected, the temperature data and the flow data can be transmitted to at least one of a retail system and a central inventory management system.
Balancing Net Inventory Using A Dynamic Expansion Coefficient Of Liquid Product Relative To Temperature Changes
US Patent:
7536264, May 19, 2009
Filed:
Feb 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/062121
Inventors:
John D. Hillam - Perry UT, US
Vincent J. Memmott - Centerville UT, US
Vincent J. Memmott - Centerville UT, US
Assignee:
Flying J, Inc. - Ogden UT
International Classification:
G01F 17/00
US Classification:
702 55, 702 45, 702 47, 702 50, 702 85, 702 86, 702 98, 702 99, 702100, 702189, 700281, 73149
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for balancing net inventory using a dynamic expansion coefficient of liquid product relative to the temperature changes with density. The method can include receiving an API gravity report that includes a measurement of a specific gravity and a temperature of the product reported at a rack. Utilizing the API gravity report, the method can include maintaining correct densities of the liquid product by utilizing a plurality of expansion coefficients to dynamically convert a gross volume measurement to a net volume measurement for transactions of liquid product in a tank and at a dispenser in order to maintain a net perpetual book balance.

Filed:
Jan 6, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/349408

Assignee:
Process Innovators, Inc. - Salt Lake City UT
International Classification:
C07C 4/06
US Classification:
208113, 208153, 208155, 208161, 422142, 422600, 422609
Abstract:
A staged fluidized catalytic cracker and method for cracking a hydrocarbonaceous material includes a plurality of staged reactors that have catalyst particles flowing in series from one reactor to the next and hydrocarbon feed that is delivered in parallel to the reactors. Between each reactor the partially spent catalyst is actively stripped to partially reactivate the catalyst. Once the catalyst is fully spent in the final reactor the catalyst can be oxidatively regenerated.
Low Profile Fluid Catalytic Cracking Apparatus And Process
US Patent:
4999100, Mar 12, 1991
Filed:
Aug 25, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/399626
Inventors:
Milton B. Thacker - Salt Lake City UT

Vincent J. Memmott - Centerville UT
International Classification:
C10G 5100, C10G 5502, C10G 5506
US Classification:
208155
Abstract:
A succession of low profile catalyst chambers each housing a reservoir or catalyst are alternately connected in sequence by openings below the levels of the catalyst reservoirs and openings thereabove. The catalyst in all reservoirs is fluidized by a gas moving upwardly therethrough. Separate portions of the sequence of chambers are operated as reactor and regenerator sections according to the gas used to fluidize the catalyst in those sections. Other portions of the sequence of chambers are used to create inert atmospheric seals between the reactor and regenerator sections. The entire apparatus is configured as a low-profile catalytic cracker wherein the fluidized flow of the catalyst moves throughout the apparatus in an alternating lifting and dropping sequence.
