  • Patent number: 6858751
    Abstract: A method for the production of aliphatic fluoroformates, wherein carbonyl fluoride is made to react with aliphatic alcohol in the presence of sodium fluoride in ether at a temperature of ?20° to 50° C. The method is carried out using carbonyl fluoride obtained by reacting phosgene with surplus powdered sodium fluoride, whereby the grains thereof have a specific surface of 0.1 m2/g or more and/or an average diameter of 20 ?m or less, at a temperature ranging from 25° to 120° C. The method enables unstable fluoroformates such as tertiobutyl to be obtained with excellent yields.

  • Patent number: 6736884
    Abstract: An air/oil separation tank for installation in a circuit for the production of compressed air, the circuit including an intake regulator (1) which intercepts external air and sends the air to an oil bath spin compressor (2) which is activated by an electric motor (3). The pressurized air/oil mixture produced by the compressor, passes through conduit (4) to enter separation tank (5) in which the separation of the oil from the air occurs. The air under pressure passes through radiator (6) and fills accumulation tank (7) waiting to be used, while the oil (8) deposited at the bottom of the separator, is picked up by conduit (9) and passes through radiator (10) to be brought again to compressor (2). This separation tank is characterized by the fact that the entry port of the air/oil mixture is placed on the upper wall or cover of the vessel.
