The present disclosure provides a method for separating a feed stream in a distillation tower. The method may include forming solids in a controlled freeze zone section of the distillation tower; emitting radiation from a first radiation source in the controlled freeze zone section while the controlled freeze zone section forms no solids; detecting radiation emitted by the first radiation source as a first radiation level; detecting radiation emitted by the first radiation source as a second radiation level after detecting the first radiation level; and determining whether the solids adhered to at least one of on and around a first mechanical component included in the controlled freeze zone section based on the first radiation level and the second radiation level.

Method and device for separating a feed stream using radiation detectors

This invention presents a new device to produce images of the gamma field, specially designed for circumstances requiring high efficiency and fast response imaging, by applying the concept of image extraction within a given field of view, through the combination of efficient gamma radiation detectors. Each detector is located inside a shielding, with an area of the detector with no shielding to enter the incident gamma radiation detector with a plurality of angles in relation to the normal outgoing central axis to the surface of the detector through the unshielded area, where that central axis is divergent in relation to the outgoing central axes of neighboring detectors.

The present disclosure provides systems, apparatuses, and methods for measuring submerged surfaces. Embodiments include a measurement apparatus including a main frame, a source positioned outside a pipe and connected to the main frame, and a detector positioned outside the pipe at a location diametrically opposite the source and connected to the main frame. The source may transmit a first amount of radiation. The detector may receive a second amount of radiation, determine a composition of the pipe based on the first and second amounts of radiation, and send at least one measurement signal. A control canister positioned on the main frame or on a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) attached to the apparatus may receive the at least one measurement signal from the detector and convey the at least one measurement signal to software located topside.

A method of tracking a provenance of a fur or a leather skin includes providing at least one of a live animal, a fur pelt, and a leather skin, removing a DNA sample from the at least one of the live animal, the fur pelt, and the leather skin, and storing the DNA sample. The DNA sample and DNA information is stored in a DNA repository that may be securely accessed by authorized individuals through a networked device, such as a computer, smart phone, or tablet. The method further includes assigning a globally unique identifier number to the at least one of the live animal, the fur pelt, and the leather skin and storing the identifier number. The method further includes selling the at least one of the live animal, the fur pelt, and the leather skin and storing sale information and associating the sale information with at least one of the identifier number and the DNA sample.

An apparatus and method for scanning a structure for detecting variations in density of a structure are described. The apparatus (10) comprises: a source of radiation (20); a plurality of detectors (30), arranged for receiving radiation emitted by said source (20)along a plurality of respective paths(26); wherein said apparatus (10) is configured such that, in use, a structure (100) to be scanned is positionable between said detectors (30) and said source (20); collimation means (40) comprising a plurality of collimator channels (42), each located between a respective detector (30) and said source (20); and collimation adjustment means (60); wherein, in a first configuration of said apparatus (10), said apparatus (10) provides a first resolution (r1) in an axial direction substantially orthogonal to a plane comprising said source and said plurality of paths(26); wherein, in a second configuration of said apparatus (10), said collimation adjustment means (60) is positioned between said collimation means (40) and said source (20) such that said apparatus (10) provides a second resolution (r2) in said axial direction; wherein said second resolution (r2) is smaller than said first resolution (r1).

Apparatus and method for scanning a structure

The invention discloses a scanning method and apparatus suitable for scanning a pipeline or process vessel in which a beam of gamma radiation from a source is emitted through the vessel to be detected by an array of detectors which are each collimated to detect radiation over a narrow angle relative to the width of the emitted radiation beam.
