A series of processing ranging from the order placement for a gas tool to the payment in relation to a gas appliance are typically carried out with paper-based forms, and an improved efficiency has been desired. At the same time, progress has been made in web-based drafting software, thus allowing drawings to be prepared on a website. In view of such a current situation, there is a demand for a system and a method whereby a series of processing ranging from the order placement for the gas tool to the payment are carried out via a website. The order of a gas tool and the installation work from a gas provider, a completion report from a supplier, an approval to the completion report, and the payment to the supplier are carried out via a website.

Systems and methods are provided to mitigate flaring of natural gas. A natural gas processing system may process raw natural gas into a fuel gas stream that may be used to power any number of on-site power generation modules. In turn, the power generation modules may convert the fuel gas stream into an electrical output, which may be employed to power any number of distributed computing units housed within one or more mobile data centers. In certain embodiments, the distributed computing units may be adapted to mine cryptocurrency or perform other distributed computing tasks to generate revenue.

Systems and methods for utility intervention are disclosed. The method of utility intervention includes: obtaining utility data from a utility data repository, (ii) detecting, using at least one type of anomaly-detecting module, at least one utility anomaly and a location address; (iii) calculating an amount of financial savings for the utility anomaly if the utility anomaly was remedied or addressed; (iv) computing a certainty score for the utility anomaly; (v) conveying information about the type of utility anomaly, and the location address of the utility anomaly; and (vi) displaying, on a display screen of a client device, a map depicting a geographical area that identifies, using a flag icon, the location address on the map of the utility anomaly, the type of the utility anomaly, a certainty score for the utility anomaly, and/or an amount of financial savings associated with the utility anomaly.

An apparatus comprises a passive RFID tag designed to provide information identifying at least one fuel compatible with a vehicle.

A gas vending system for health application, comprising: a healthy gas generator module, a control module, and a charging/payment module. The healthy gas generator module is used to generate a healthy gas. The control module is connected to the healthy gas generator module for monitoring the usage state of the healthy gas and generating a volume consumption signal for the healthy gas. The charging/payment module is connected to the control module for receiving the volume consumption signal for the healthy gas and then generating a toll after computing. The charging/payment module is adapted to accept cash or charging a debit card or credit card according to the toll.

Methods, systems, and devices for secure payment and providing multimedia at fuel dispensers are provided. In general, a fuel dispenser can include a terminal configured to receive secure information and to show multimedia. The terminal can be configured to switch between a first mode and a second mode. The terminal can include a touchscreen. In the first mode, the touchscreen can have a shield enabled thereon that is configured to reduce a field of view of the touchscreen such that the touchscreen is only visible from specific angle(s). In the second mode, the shield can be disabled such that the touchscreen does not have a reduced field of view.

The systems and methods described herein disclose providing compensation for data transmission during a refill event. As described here, a vehicle collects operation data sets during movement in the vehicular environment. Vehicles can then transfer one or more of the operation data sets during the refill of the collecting vehicle. Thus, operator can determine the desirability and value of trading the upload time for compensation. The systems and methods can include detecting a refill event for a collecting vehicle. A data analysis can then be received for one or more operation data sets produced by the collecting vehicle. A data value can then be determined from the data analysis, with the operator determining transfer one or more operation data sets from the collecting vehicle during the refill event. Once received, compensation can be provided to the collecting vehicle for the received operation data sets based on the data value.

The present invention discloses an intelligent gas meter system with a light wallet, comprising a CPU for processing and operating data in the intelligent gas meter and controlling data exchange, a flow metering and control module for controlling a gas supply of an individual pipe and metering the supplied gas amount, a blockchain light wallet module for performing data interaction with the CPU and an external committer, and a communication module for implementing the data transmission among the CPU, the flow metering and control module and the blockchain light wallet module, and the data transmission in the blockchain network. The present invention records gas transactions related to this gas meter by providing a blockchain light wallet module, and combines with a committer in a blockchain network, such that the final gas amount information and gas transaction information are stored in the blockchain network in a distributive and tamper-proofing manner.

A user device may receive (e.g., when proximate to the first access device), from an intervening device, device identification data for a first access device. A message may be received from a second access device via the intervening device. The message may include a digital signature generated based at least in part on second access device identification data. The user device may validate the message utilizing the digital signature and a public key. If the message is invalid, the user device may discard the message. If the message is valid, (e.g., unaltered), the user device may determine that the user has not confirmed an intent to interact with the second access device and may terminate a[n] further interaction with the second access device accordingly.
