Fluid comprising methane and a tracer, and processes for producing it and the use thereof
A labelled methane, such as LNG, has methane and a tracer, in the form of a slush of liquids and solids. The invention especially relates to LNG having a tracer. The labelled methane may comprise, in addition to the tracer, an odorant, and a carrier for the odorant. The odorant is ethyl acetate and/or ethyl mercaptan. The carrier for the odorant is propane, n-butane, iso-butane, or a mixture of two or more thereof. A process for preparing the liquid or slush involves liquefying a gas comprising methane and tracer.
Odorized methane fluid and processes for producing odorized methane fluids and the use thereof
An odorized methane comprising fluid has an odorant and a carrier. The odorant is ethyl acrylate and/or ethyl mercaptan. The carrier is propane, n-butane, iso-butane, or a mixture of two or more thereof. The odorized methane-comprising fluid may be prepared by adding the odorant and the carrier separately or pre-mixed to a methane comprising liquid or slush.

Systems and methods for holistic low carbon intensity fuel and ethanol production
Systems and methods to provide low carbon intensity (CI) ethanol through one or more targeted reductions of carbon emissions based upon an analysis of carbon emissions associated with a combination of various options for feedstock procurement, feedstock refining, processing, or transformation, and ethanol distribution pathways to end users. Such options are selected to maintain the total CI (carbon emissions per unit energy) of the ethanol below a pre-selected threshold that defines an upper limit of CI for the ethanol.

METHOD FOR DETERMINING PROPERTIES OF A HYDROCARBON-CONTAINING GAS MIXTURE AND DEVICE FOR THE SAME
A method for determining properties of a hydrocarbon-containing gas mixture includes determining a thermal conductivity value, density measurement, viscosity measurement, and temperature and pressure. The method also includes determining a hydrogen content of the gas mixture on the basis of the thermal conductivity value and the temperature and pressure, determining a density measurement and associated temperature and pressure, and determining the mean molar mass or standard density on the basis of the density measurement and the temperature and pressure. The method further includes determining the mean molar mass or standard density of a hydrogen-free residual gas mixture based on the mean molar mass or standard density and the hydrogen fraction, determining the Wobbe index of the residual gas mixture based on the viscosity measurement and the temperature and pressure, and determining a calorific value based on the mean molar mass or standard density and the Wobbe index.
