  • Patent number: 11996786
    Abstract: A resonance control method for differentiated phase correction under asymmetric positive and negative bilateral frequency domains includes a differentiated phase correction resonance control link with an independent phase correction angle at each resonance point, a decoupling link and a delay compensation link. As a high power converter has the characteristic of asymmetric positive and negative bilateral frequency domains under resonance control with decoupling, stability margin of a control link is enhanced while a negative-sequence current suppression capability is realized by means of differentiated phase correction at positive and negative resonance poles.

  • Patent number: 10723858
    Abstract: A method for purifying polymers made from depolymerization of plastic can include selecting a polymer for purification, adding the polymer to a reaction vessel with a solvent, heating the mixture to promote migration of contaminants from the polymer to the solvent, performing an extraction technique to remove contaminants, depressurizing the reaction vessel to isolate a purified polymer, and allowing the purified polymer to cool. In some embodiments, the polymer is a polyethylene polymer. In other embodiments, the polymer is a polypropylene polymer. In some embodiments, the polymer is a polystyrene polymer. In some embodiments, the extraction technique is supercritical fluid extraction using supercritical CO2 as a solvent. Parameters including temperature, pressure, duration, agitation rate, starting solvent volume, and co-solvent addition for supercritical fluid extraction can be selected based on the properties of the polymer to be purified.
