Abstract: A manhole cover for manholes, sewer accesses or drainage channels, including a reinforcing element and a body made of plastic which is connected to the reinforcing element. The reinforcing element may be constructed from intersecting, vertically aligned elements. Corrugations may be formed in the reinforcing element. The reinforcing elements may be arched and may include an outer encircling strip and a central plate, which are each connected to the body made of plastic. The reinforcing element rests on a bearing surface on the manhole, sewer access or drainage channel when the manhole, sewer access or drainage channel is closed by means of the manhole cover. The body made of plastic includes ribs, which extend perpendicularly or at an angle of more than 45° to the surface surrounding the manhole cover, sewer access or drainage channel when the manhole, sewer or drainage channel is closed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound material consisting of a natural zeolite having calcium as an exchangeable cation, in which hydroxyapatite on a nanometric scale is grown in a controlled manner on the surface thereof; to the method by which said compound material is obtained; and to the use thereof for removing fluoride from water in order to make same drinkable. As a result of the aforementioned special characteristics of hydroxyapatite crystals, said material has a very high intrinsic capacity (based on the weight of hydroxyapatite) for removing fluoride. This capacity, combined with the low cost and ease of access to the materials used for preparing same, and with the straightforward nature of the method, means that said material is the perfect candidate for removing fluoride from water having high levels of this contaminant.

Abstract: The present disclosure comprises a new method for hydrothermal synthesis of ferrierite zeolite, using tetramethylammonium and benzylmethylpyrrodlidine as directional structure agents, and does not require a subsequent process in order to obtain the acid form of the material. This aspect is very important as it avoids subject treatments of calcination and successive interchanges which degrade the structure of the zeolite. The synthetic ferrierite obtained by means disclosed processes has uses in catalytic processes of transformation of hydrocarbons, such as cracking, isomerization, alkylation, and polymerization. Specifically, it can be used in the isomerization of butene to isobutene. To be used in catalytic processes, the zeolite ferrierite must be heated in an oxidant atmosphere in conditions such that the organic material occluded in the interior is eliminated.
