This document summarizes and evaluates five scenarios to reduce solvent emissions at the Toronto Solvent Reduction site in order to comply with future MOE standards. Scenario 1 would connect all process lines to an RTO system and increase oxidizer capacity, achieving compliance but with the highest cost. Scenario 2 would not achieve compliance due to n-propyl acetate emissions. Scenario 3 also fails compliance and has high air makeup costs. Scenario 4B achieves compliance by improving the adhesive laminator and connecting all lines to new oxidizer systems, though there is uncertainty about capture rates. Scenario 5B involves a rotary concentrator and replacing the laminator dryer.
Concepts for Proposed General Permit for Well Pads and Proposed GP-5 Modifica...Marcellus Drilling News
A PowerPoint presentation used by PA Dept. of Environmental Protection John Quigley during a session to discuss proposed new rules to reduce the amount of methane leaking from oil and gas drilling operations. The new regulations are costly and would not result in much of a reduction in so-called fugitive methane. They simply hamstring drillers and pipeline companies with an extra layer of regulation, and expense.

This presentation is a talk given at the 14 November Philadelphia area AIChE meeting. Chemical engineers, especially those in the US, are increasingly being asked to develop incremental increases in plant capacity, say up to 20%. Many plants are now running at maximum capacity, yet tight capital funding and requirements for short payback periods make it difficult to have large investment for new, grassroots facilities. In some cases, engineers need to meet demand increments much less than the capacity of a new plant, while further demand growth is uncertain. The manufacturer must then choose the appropriate capacity increment, instead of overdesigning Debottlenecking projects are undertaken to deliver these capacity increases, by implementing select changes to specific parts of a plant to relieve restrictions. In this session, we will discuss tools and analyses for assessing the process bottlenecks. We will address means of debottlenecking numerous unit operations, while listing points often forgotten in such projects. Finally we will discuss how debottlenecking projects are different from conventional grass roots projects, while treating the practical aspects of how to manage such projects. A list of references is included for further, deeper study. Many of the facts and figures presented in the talk were taken from these references.

Field Experience from a Biotechnology Approach to Water Flood ImprovementBill-NewAERO
Abstract
This paper is based on a field implementation in the United States of a biological process for improving waterflood performance. The Activated Environment for Recovery Optimization (“AERO™”) System is being developed by Glori in collaboration with Statoil and derives its roots from a microbial enhanced oil recovery technology developed and successfully implemented by Statoil offshore Norway. Unique among IOR technologies, AERO implementation requires virtually no capital investment and achieves high performance efficiencies at low operational cost. The simplicity of setup allows pilot project implementation creating a very low risk entry point for the operator.
A pilot project was selected for a controlled investigation of the performance and impact. Robust testing was done in both water and oil phases prior to treatment, confirming the potential for improved sweep and conformance from the project. Subsequent implementation resulted in decreased water cut and increased oil recovery observable both at the wellhead and allocated pilot levels.
This paper summarizes a rigorous analysis of the pilot project‟s performance to date, concluding that the production improvement should be credited to the implementation of the AERO™ System.
New AERO Technology (www.new-aero.com) is a green biotech company focusing on the recovery of oil more efficiently and effectively as well as wastewater treatment, contaminated soil/mud remediation and related data science. The AERO™ (Activated Environment for Recovery of Oil) technology was a recipient of 10 prestigious innovation awards since 2013. Earlier this year, the technology was named the top technology breakthroughs by CNPC and passed technical and projects evaluating phases for a $149 million US DOE LPO for Advanced Fossil Fuels.
The AERO™ is a low-cost, low-risk, easy to deploy bio-technology that builds on successful projects by Statoil and Glori Energy since the 1990s and has proven to be effective in enhancing the recovery of residual oil from active reservoirs that are undergoing waterflood in North Sea, USA, Canada and Brazil oilfields.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
