Intellectual Property Management
The Company follows a dual route of IP protection via a suite of patents and maintaining secrecy over the design documents, calculations, and chemical engineering models for the process. The most important IP remains the chemical engineering model of the process to create the clean gas - and Powerhouse maintain strict protocols to ensure this information is protected as secret, including limited access to process control on the system.
Through last year and into 2021 the technical development team of Powerhouse have assessed the DMG control system, technology of application and how the key programming, control and maintenance of the systems will be protected. The specification of the system has been bid by international control systems companies, this process has allowed definition of the system.
The system will be enacted tested and quality assured to the DNV, Recommended Practice -G108 defining cyber security systems. Of priority this enactment will be the IP focused risk assessment to determine the measures that algorithms and control functional blocks embedded in the systems will be protected. Once in operation, under the licence agreements the key system support activities on Protos and other projects will be undertaken by Powerhouse staff.
Following the patent protection, there is a family of patent work completed and filed nationally, and within Europe, within GCC and worldwide. The associated statements of invention and claims initiated and are under scrutiny and assessment work continues for completion prior to the first application of DMG. The family of patents will be augmented by the detailed design novel designs that the team are generating.
