20110017455 | HYDROCARBON RECOVERY METHOD - A process for increasing the efficiency of hydrocarbon recovery from an underground formation containing viscous hydrocarbons through the use of both gravity drainage and mobile water drive. The process comprises a pair of vertically-spaced horizontal wells and a laterally offset horizontal well. A heated fluid is injected into the formation via a first well pair, and an adjacent horizontal well creates a pressure sink to draw the heated fluid laterally to assist growth of the formation drainage area for hydrocarbon recovery improvement. Injected fluids recovered from both producers are collected for recycling. | 01-27-2011 |

20160137854 | STABILIZATION OF CARBON NANOTUBE COATINGS TO MOISTURE - A method of making CNT films is described in which the film is washed with a mild acid treatment. The method generates a CNT film that is not sensitive to moisture or fluctuations in moisture. The method involves the use of anionic polysaccharides or anionic glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronic acid, sodium salt, as aqueous dispersing agents and their modification to a hydrophobic matrix after deposition. In the course of conducting the work described here, we made the surprising discovery that washing with an aqueous acidic solution resulted in a decrease in resistance through the material. The invention also includes CNT composites made by the inventive methods and a CNT composite comprising CNTs and anionic polysaccharides or anionic glycosaminoglycans further characterized by a low cationic content and a high conductivity and/or small CNT particle size as measured by SEM. | 05-19-2016 |

The virtual card is associated with the funding card on a payment gateway server. The virtual card is used on a NFC-enabled mobile device. When a payment is initiated, the virtual card data is sent through the NFC system from a point of sale terminal. This information is sent to the payment gateway server, which retrieves the funding card to make the payment. The funding card, not the virtual card, is used to transfer the money to make payment. | 05-14-2015 |
