Patent number: 6262133Abstract: A process for removing deleterious surfaces from polymeric regrind particles in which the polymeric regrind particles such as TPO, PC/ABS, PC/PBT, PA/PP or PA/PPO having a surface material deleterious to post-treatment processes is contacted by an aqueous attritive environment for an interval sufficient to accomplish dissociation of the deleterious surface material from contact with the polymeric regrind particulate substrate and removal of less than 10% of the total mass of polymeric regrind particulate substrate. After sufficient contact between the attritive environment and the polymeric regrind particles, the polymeric regrind particulate substrate is separated from the attritive environment and the retained dissociated deleterious surface material.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 1999Date of Patent: July 17, 2001Assignee: American Commodities, Inc.Inventor: Ralph Wisner

Patent number: 6217804Abstract: In a recycling process, granulated plastic material coated with a paint film is melted in an extruder. During extrusion, the paint film is volatilized and removed by vacuum from the melted granulate stream. Additives are admixed with the particulates and any remaining paint film in an extruder. Water is introduced into the melted plastic stream in the extruder to neutralize toxic material levels discharged from the extruder and from the extruded plastic material.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 1994Date of Patent: April 17, 2001Assignee: American Commodities, Inc.Inventor: Mark Lieberman

Patent number: 5569713Abstract: A close loop thermoplastic recycling process includes the step of testing particulated processed plastic material to determine the properties thereof. The tested properties are compared with targeted near virgin properties of the processed plastic material to determine any difference(s) therebetween. Additives based on the property differences determined during testing are admixed with the particulates in a twin screw extruder. During extruding, volatile constituents are simultaneously withdrawn from the fused particulates. The twin screws of the extruder are provided with a number of screw sections, each having a thread with predetermined degrees of chamfer and pitch length. Kneading blocks are mounted on certain screw sections prior to a vacuum vent port disposed along the feed path of the melt stream in the extruder. The extruded material is tested to determine if any property differences exist.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1995Date of Patent: October 29, 1996Assignee: American Commodities, Inc.Inventor: Mark Lieberman

Patent number: 5203099Abstract: A self-powered, self-contained mobile dredge for removing silt and other bottom sediment from the bottom surface of a body of water, such as a canal, which accumulates as a result of erosion caused by rain and irrigation. A submersible drive unit of the dredge includes a continuous track drive, including left and right tracks, providing sufficient traction and mobility while exerting minimum ground pressure to enable the dredge to be driven along the bottom surface of a canal, while further enabling entry and exit from within the canal and transit across terrain between canals. A housing is movably mounted on the drive unit and is both rotatable about an arc of 360.degree. and vertically adjustable relative to the drive unit. A dredge unit, movable between a raised position and a lowered position extends from a forward end of the housing and includes a scoop having a tiller assembly therein.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 1992Date of Patent: April 20, 1993Assignee: Commodities, Inc.Inventors: Javier Naranjo, Pierre G.

Patent number: 4378655Abstract: This invention relates to a novel semi-dwarf hybrid sunflower (Helianthus annuus var. macrocarpus (DC.) Ckll. (herein H. annuus) seed and a method of producing the hybrid seed. The hybrid sunflower seed upon growth yields a semi-dwarf sunflower plant having a reduced internode length. The hybrid seed is produced by cross pollinating a pair of parent plants P.sub.1 and P.sub.2 wherein, in at least one parent substantially all pollen is nonfunctional and at least one parent has gametes with nuclei carrying at least one dominant gene for reduced internode length.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 1981Date of Patent: April 5, 1983Assignee: Red River Commodities, Inc.Inventor: Freeman K.
