Patent number: 9556399Abstract: A multi-stage homogenization method for degumming triglyceride oil is used to increase oil yield and reduce impurities. Two high-pressure homogenizers are used in series. The homogenizers have multiple flow constrictions to finely disperse reagents in the oil while simultaneously suppressing cavitation in the fluid. A separation step can be used to remove the phosphatides and other impurities from the treated oil to form a purified oil product.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2016Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: ARISDYNE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.

Patent number: 9453180Abstract: A multi-stage agitation system is used for degumming vegetable oil to increase yield and reduce phosphatides. A high-shear mixing phase, that can include multiple stages, subjects an oil mixed with acid and base to a shear rate of greater than 15,000 s?1 to form a neutralized oil mixture. A low-shear mixing phase is further used to disperse water into the neutralized oil mixture. A separation step can be used to remove the phosphatides from the treated oil to form a degummed oil product.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2014Date of Patent: September 27, 2016Assignee: ARISDYNE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.

Patent number: 9303216Abstract: A process for upgrading hydrocarbon oil including mixing hydrocarbon oil with hydrogen gas and heating the hydrogen-enriched hydrocarbon oil before passing the oil through a cavitation apparatus to induce hydrotreating. Hydrotreating is achieved by hydrodynamically generating hydrogen-filled cavitation bubbles and collapsing the bubbles in the hydrocarbon oil under static pressure. The hydrotreating process can increase the API gravity of the hydrocarbon oil and reduce the viscosity of the hydrocarbon oil.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2012Date of Patent: April 5, 2016Assignee: ARISDYNE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.

Patent number: 9290717Abstract: A reactor is used for degumming vegetable oil to increase yield and reduce phosphatides. The reactor includes an annular obstruction with multiple circumferential spacers that form ring gaps around a center body having a tapered surface. The circumferential spacers and ring gaps form decompression stages for explosively mixing the oil with degumming agents. Impurities are transferred to the degumming agents and further separation of the components can be carried out to produce a refined oil product.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2014Date of Patent: March 22, 2016Assignee: ARISDYNE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.

Patent number: 8709109Abstract: A process for preparing biodiesel having improved filterability characteristics including inducing transesterification of a triglyceride feedstock with cavitation to form an intermediate reaction product. Glycerol by product is separated from the intermediate reaction product before finishing the transesterification reaction in a pressurized reaction tank to yield a biodiesel reaction product. The biodiesel reaction product can be further purified by removing glycerol.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2010Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Arisdyne Systems IncorporatedInventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.

Publication number: 20130062249Abstract: A process for treating hydrocarbon oil including passing heated oil through a cavitation apparatus to statically induce cavitation treatment of the oil. The oil is passed through the cavitation apparatus in the absence on non-hydrocarbon oil substances such as hydrogen, water or other organic materials and solvents. The cavitation treatment process can increase the API gravity of the hydrocarbon oil and reduce the viscosity of the hydrocarbon oil.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2012Publication date: March 14, 2013Applicant: ARISDYNE SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Oleg Kozyuk, Peter Reimers, Paul A.
