Fracturing blender system and method
The present invention provides a method and system for providing on-site electrical power to a fracturing operation, and an electrically powered fracturing system. Natural gas can be used to drive a turbine generator in the production of electrical power. A scalable, electrically powered fracturing fleet is provided to pump fluids for the fracturing operation, obviating the need for a constant supply of diesel fuel to the site and reducing the site footprint and infrastructure required for the fracturing operation, when compared with conventional systems.

COATING SLURRY SUPPLY DEVICE
Disclosed is a coating slurry supply device including an ultrasonic generator and a stirrer installed in a pipe configured to allow a slurry to be transferred therethrough. While the slurry is transferred through the pipe, a slurry additive containing a conductive material is dispersed and stirred. While being transferred through the pipe, the slurry does not stagnate in a specific section, thereby preventing slurry agglomeration caused by long-term mixing or dispersion. The slurry, the temperature of which increases due to heat generated during mixing or dispersion, is cooled through a cooling jacket, thereby appropriately adjusting the temperature so as to coat the slurry on a current collector or a support. This structure minimizes a change in physical properties of the slurry and maximizes dispersion of the slurry additive containing the conductive material.

Method of removing and disposing of waste from a refinery ground tank including mixing at least one diluent with reduced-size solids to cause a flowable mixture
A method for disposing of solid refinery waste is disclosed. The method includes removing solid waste constituents from inside a refinery tank using excavating machinery, delumping the solid waste constituents, and conveying the delumped solid waste constituents into a mobile tank. The method further includes transporting the delumped solid waste constituents in the mobile tank to a burning facility, adding at least one diluent, mixing, and pumping from the mobile tank a flowable mixture of refinery waste and the at least one diluent at the burning facility.
Inherently safe oxygen/hydrocarbon gas mixer
A method of safely mixing a hydrocarbon with an oxidant is provided. The hydrocarbon and oxidant are saturated with a non-flammable liquid in pre-mix zones that are flooded with the non-flammable liquid and fluidly connected to a common mixing zone that is partially flooded with the non-flammable liquid. The saturated hydrocarbon and oxidant combine within the common mixing zone forming bubbles of a homogeneous gas mixture of hydrocarbon and oxidant, preferably in a ratio of hydrocarbon to oxidant that is outside of the flammability limit, that can exit the non-flammable liquid into a headspace where it can be retrieved for use in an oxidative reaction process such as oxidative dehydrogenation.
LIQUID SUSPENSIONS FOR USE AS DRYING AGENTS
Liquid suspensions are disclosed that include superabsorbent polymer suspended within a non-aqueous liquid. The liquid suspensions are capable of being pumped and sprayed onto waste fluids for clean-up procedures. The liquid suspensions can be made by high shear mixing of the superabsorbent polymer with the non-aqueous liquid until the superabsorbent polymer is suspended within the non-aqueous liquid.
