20110113985 | METHODS AND ARRANGEMENT FOR CREATING ASPHALT EMULSION - A method for creating asphalt emulsion is provided. The method includes heating a base asphalt. The method also includes injecting the base asphalt into a colloid mill. The method further includes breaking up the base asphalt into small particles. The method yet also include preparing a soap solution, wherein the soap solution includes an acid, water, and a first emulsifier, wherein the first emulsifier is an alkyl amines salt based emulsifier. The method yet further includes combining the small particles of the base asphalt with the soap solution to create the asphalt emulsion. | 05-19-2011 |
20110114186 | METHODS AND ARRANGEMENT FOR HANDLING ASPHALT EMULSION - A method for handling asphalt emulsion is provided. The method includes providing the asphalt emulsion. The method also includes employing a first set of diaphragm pumps to transfer the asphalt emulsion from a first container to a second container. The second container represents a first storage tank if the first container is a colloidal mill. The second container represents a transportation tank if the first container is the first storage tank. The second container represents a second storage tank at a job site if the first container is the transportation tank. The second container represents a slurry machine if the first container is the second storage tank at the job site. | 05-19-2011 |

20120016924 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EMAIL ANALYTICS - An email campaign is analyzed by sending an email message including a tracking code that requests content from an initial-engagement location (e.g., a server). The tracking code requests the content from the initial-engagement location when the email message is opened by a mail user agent operated by a recipient. Requests sent to the initial-engagement location are then tracked to measure the number of recipients that open the email message. A first redirect response is then served from the initial-engagement location to the mail user agent of the recipient after a first delay period to cause the mail user agent of the recipient to then request content from a first redirect location; and requests sent to the first redirect location are tracked to measure the number of recipients that keep the email message open in the mail user agent for through all of the first delay period. | 01-19-2012 |

20090123348 | Steam Reforming - An apparatus for steam reforming of hydrocarbons comprises a heat exchange reformer having disposed within a plurality of vertical catalyst-filled tubes, through which a gas mixture comprising hydrocarbon and steam may be passed, and to which heat may be transferred by means of a heat exchange medium flowing around the external tube surfaces, wherein heat exchange adapting means are provided within the reformer so that the tubes have a zone of lower heat exchange extending from the bottom of the catalyst up to 25% of the catalyst depth with no heat exchange enhancement means provided in that zone. A process for steam reforming of hydrocarbons employs this apparatus. | 05-14-2009 |

20110190453 | POLY(ARYLENE ETHER)-POLYSILOXANE COMPOSITION AND METHOD - A thermoplastic composition includes a poly(arylene ether) and a poly(arylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymer. The thermoplastic composition is prepared by a method that includes oxidatively copolymerizing a monohydric phenol and a hydroxyaryl-terminated polysiloxane. The method is simpler than prior methods of preparing poly(arylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymers by linking pre-formed poly(arylene ether) and polysiloxane blocks. The method is also produces greater incorporation of polysiloxane into the poly(arylene ether)-polysiloxane block copolymer than prior methods of copolymerizing monohydric phenols and hydroxyaryl-terminated polysiloxane. | 08-04-2011 |
