  • Patent number: 8388732
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated membrane/adsorbent process and system for removal of carbon dioxide from natural gas on a ship that houses natural gas purification equipment. Additional membrane units or adsorbent beds are used to reduce the amount of product gas that is lost in gas streams that are used to regenerate the adsorbent beds. These systems produce a product stream that meets the specifications of less than 50 parts per million carbon dioxide in natural gas for liquefaction.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 11, 2011
    Date of Patent: March 5, 2013
    Assignee: UOP LLC
    Inventors: Shain-Jer Doong, Lubo Zhou, Dennis J. Bellville, Mark E. Schott, Leonid Bresler, John M. Foresman

  • Publication number: 20100135881
    Abstract: A process is provided for the simultaneous removal of carbon dioxide and sulfur oxides from a flue gas stream by a potassium carbonate solvent. As a part of the regeneration of the contaminated stream, a portion of that stream is removed and cooled to allow for filtration of potassium sulfate, the reaction product of the solvent and the sulfur oxides.

  • Patent number: 5360688
    Abstract: A composite film article which is a flexible, heat resistant, polymeric film material having a non-opaque, partially translucent white surface side, having a visible light opacity of from about 0.90 to about 0.99; and a non-opaque, black surface side having a visible light opacity of less than 1.0, a transmission density of less than about 2.0 and a thickness less than about 5.0 microns. The article may be used as a base for images such that the images have a reduced optical dot gain.

  • Patent number: 4869993
    Abstract: This invention relates to positive working photosensitized sheet constructions which, upon exposure to an actinic radiation source through a screened image, can accurately reproduce said image. The construction is useful as a color proofing film which can be employed to predict the image quality from a lithographic printing process. The element is composed of a substrate, colored photosensitive layer and adhesive layer. The adhesive layer contains an optical brightener compound which reduces residual yellow staining derived from the naphthoquinone diazide sensitizer.

  • Patent number: 4552928
    Abstract: A regenerative catalyst composition is provided comprising polymer supported covalently bound di- or triphenylated cation radical salts, wherein the cation radical is a Group VA element and the complementing anion is a Lewis acid anion or other anion, such as perhalo acid or acid metal halide. The phenylated cation radical salts, either polymer supported or unsupported, are useful catalytic agents facilitating the versatile Diels-Alder organic synthetic reactions to form cyclohexene compounds including the more intricate terpenoids, steroids, alkaloids, and prostaglandinoids.
