Customizable facility
A customizable facility for manufacturing at least one product has at least one modular unit in communication with at least one central unit configured to provide utilities to the at least one modular unit. In some embodiments, the central unit(s) and modular unit(s) are positioned at least partially within a shell. Each modular unit can be a fermentation unit, a pre-viral unit, a post-viral unit, a utility space, a warehouse, a media buffer facility, an office, a personnel unit, or another unit. The modular units can be arranged to maximize a number of modular units within the shell while minimizing a footprint of the shell. A method of assembling a facility for manufacturing at least one product includes providing at least one central unit and providing at least one modular unit in communication with the central unit(s) such that utilities are provided by the central unit(s) to the modular unit(s).
Data center airflow management
According to one embodiment, a data center air cooling system includes a first information technology (IT) room and a second IT room, each with electronic racks with one or more pieces of IT equipment. The system includes an air cooling unit that provides cooling air into an air chamber, which supplies the cooling air to the first IT room. The system includes an air duct system that supplies the cooling air from the air chamber to the second IT room and returns warmed air from the first IT room and the second IT room to the air cooling unit. The system includes several louvers that are each arranged to open and close independently and in different combinational modes to create several airflow management modes for cooling pieces of IT equipment in the first IT room, in the second IT room, or a combination thereof.
Air transportable modular shipping container for edge data centers
This invention describes the use of pre-packaged air shipping containers for delivery of edge data center equipment. The containers are capable of rapid deployment and positioning at the edge data center delivery site to minimize time between the order of equipment and deployment of a functioning edge data center. The containers allow for easy access, and rapid repair/replacement of modular edge data center equipment.

PROTECTIVE BARRIER FOR INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT
Protective barrier for an item of industrial equipment that is traversed by and/or processes a combustible fluid or oxygen, having four vertical walls forming four sides of a parallelepiped, these walls being attached to a base so as to define a rectangular-section space that is intended to contain the industrial equipment arranged on the base, the four vertical walls having a height of at least 2.4 m and having at least one partial roof attached to at least one of the vertical walls, having a surface parallel to the base and extending over the space, the surface area of the partial roof or the surface area of each of the partial roofs being equal to at most 50% of the surface area corresponding to the rectangular section.
Removable panel roof for modular, self-contained, mobile clean room
Modular building cleanrooms having integrated mechanical rooms with removable, walkable floor panels above their ceilings are disclosed. The attic area above the sealed cleanroom ceiling and below joists of the modular building's frame provides an interstitial volume through which ducts, piping, electrical conduit, etc. run from the mechanical room to dampers, valves, and junctions boxes. The walkable floor panels can be bar grating through which maintenance people can see components below. The floor panels can have individual sections that may be removed for access to the components. Along with walkable floor panels, the modular building roofs can have foldable electrical panelboards that are pre-wired at the factory and then rotated upright once delivered to their destination.
MOBILE AUTONOMOUS SOLAR- WIND ELECTRICAL STATION
A Mobile Autonomous Solar-Wind Electrical Station (MASWES) comprises an offshore container (2), which equipped with a reinforced case (18); a reinforced grillage (19) provided by at least two beams laid along, and plurality beams laid across the container (2); at least two reinforced internal columns (42) arranged in opposite comers of the container (2) and between the grillage (19) and the middle part of the reinforced case (18); a plurality of light reflecting mats (21); a plurality of movable screw-piles (22), which in the transport position are stored in the plurality of cylindrical channels (38); at least two monolithic towers or telescopic masts (52) of powerful horizontal-axis wind turbines (23) providing at least 10 kW power each with blades and wind vanes taken off in the transport position. The reinforced internal columns (42) are the bases for the monolithic towers or the telescopic masts (52) and equipped with a hydraulic mechanism or an electric actuator (54) and an erection tool for installation of mentioned monolithic towers or telescopic masts (52). The container (2) comprises gondolas, which in the transport position are arranged horizontally in opposite ends of the container (2); a plurality of photovoltaic double-sided panels (24); a plurality of multifold frameworks for photovoltaic panel arrays (25) with at least 30 kW power total and at least one charging point (28) stored inside the container and at least one rechargeable battery (31).

FABRICATION METHOD OF A PLANT FACILITY
To reduce work at an installation site when a plant facility is manufactured, modules are conveyed in order from a fabrication yard to the installation site, and expansion and contraction amounts of pipe spools are calculated based on a temperature difference between a temperature at the fabrication yard when the modules are manufactured and a temperature at the installation site when the modules are installed at the installation site. Further, an installation position of a foundation is adjusted toward a direction to cancel out the expansion and contraction amounts of the plurality of pipe spools, and the pipe spool is moved toward the direction to cancel out the expansion and contraction amounts of the plurality of pipe spools. The modules are installed with the positions of the end portions of the pipe spools being adjusted.
