  • Method for preventing condensate in the oil of an oil-injected compressor and compressor in which such a method is applied
    Patent number: 10550844
    Abstract: Method for preventing condensate in the oil of an oil-injected compressor (1), characterised in that before the compressor element (2) is stopped, when the maximum pressure (pmax) in the consumer network (16) has been reached, the compressor element continues to be driven until the temperature (T) of the oil or the compressed gas is lower than a set fixed or calculated minimum value (Tmin) above which there is no or as little condensate as possible in the oil.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 4, 2020
    Assignee: ATLAS COPCO AIRPOWER N.V.
    Inventors: Joeri Coeckelbergs, Kenneth Alexander De Vocht, Andries Jan F. Desiron

  • Method for the removal of organic components from a mixture of organic components and water
    Patent number: 9458032
    Abstract: Method for the removal of organic components from a mixture of organic components and water having the steps of guiding the mixture through at least one vessel (3) in which has been provided an amount of organoclay (17) in at least one removable casing (18) which is permeable to liquids and gasses but not to organoclay particles, or on a supporting structure (28) from where the organoclay particles cannot come off, such that the amount of organoclay particles is at any time part of a removable entity; and of producing a flow through the aforesaid mixture in this vessel (3).
