A precision pump system having a motor driver for accurately and repeatedly delivering process fluid, (e.g., photo chemicals) using a pumping fluid with minimal process fluid loss to a fabrication process and whereby the motor driver can be easily and quickly replaced without interrupting the fluid flow path. This is accomplished with the use of a process fluid reservoir and a pumping fluid reservoir that are associated with the pump, either integrated with the pump or closely adjacent. In addition, this precision pump system can be remotely monitored, viewed and controlled over the Internet. In addition, trapped process fluid within a downstream filtering block can be recirculated to the process fluid reservoir when trapped gas in the filter is removed. Furthermore, a nitrogen gas source is connected to the process fluid reservoir via a valve in case a need to insert a gas is required.

A system that can eliminate engine combustion emissions in addition to raw and fugitive methane emissions associated with a gas compressor package. The system may comprise an air system for starting and instrumentation air supply; electrically operated engine pre/post-lube pump, compressor pre-lube pump, and cooler louver actuators; compressor distance piece and pressure packing recovery system; blow-down recovery system; engine crankcase vent recovery system; a methane leak detection system; and an overall remote monitoring system.

An engine compressor unit including at least one rotary engine; and at least one rotary compressor for compressing at least one gaseous fluid; the rotary engine including an engine housing including at least one engine ring that is rotatably supported in the engine housing about an engine axis, at least one engine cylinder that is arranged in the engine ring, wherein an engine piston is arranged in the at least one engine cylinder so that the engine piston defines a combustion chamber of the at least one engine cylinder together with a wall of the at least one engine cylinder, wherein the engine piston is supported in the at least one engine cylinder by an engine connecting rod so that the engine piston is movable in the at least one engine cylinder in a linear manner.

A closed dual-bladder wave energy system that is capable of capturing a continuous supply of energy derived from wave movements for nearshore implementations. Rather than employing an onshore bladder in communication with an offshore bladder, and rather than focusing on capturing more incremental potential energy derived from tidal movement, the system accomplishes continuous captures potential energy from waves via a dual-bladder system employed offshore. Fluid within the system translates between a first offshore bladder and a second offshore bladder based on a pressure differential between a crest and a trough of a wave external to the system. By utilizing compliant bladders, the system is capable of capturing energy even during inclement weather conditions without the risk of faults resulting from strong waves. As such, the system provides for the efficient and effective capture of potential energy from waves in any weather condition and in any water environment that experiences waves.

A multi-stage gas compression system useful at the production site and at central collection points, having an energy efficient and effective intercooler system. The system includes a reciprocating compressor having a plurality of compressor valves and cylinders configured in series to provide staged compression to the natural gas. Coupled with the compressor are an inlet port for receiving natural gas to be compressed, and an outlet port for delivering compressed fluid from the compressor to a discharge line, to the transmission pipeline or storage. Facilitating transmission and intercooling of the natural gas between cylinders are a plurality of pipes, each pipe in close proximity with an intercooler. The rate of cooling of the intercooler is determined by a control system coupled therewith, including a temperature sensor positioned within pipe proximal to the intercooler, and means to compare the temperature measured by the temperature sensor and an optimal temperature or temperature range, and determine appropriate levels of cooling provided by the intercooler.

A pressurized fluid supply apparatus and method of supplying pressurized fluid is provided. The pressurized fluid supply apparatus includes a housing configured to rotate about an axis, at least one fluid pump coupled to the housing and configured to pressurize a fluid therein, and at least one movable element disposed within the housing. The at least one movable element is configured to move within the housing when the housing rotates about the axis, which causes the at least one movable element to be in periodic driving engagement with the at least one fluid pump to cause the fluid to be pressurized.
