  • Publication number: 20250242309
    Abstract: Disclosed is a means for facilitating, in a method for separating and individually collecting organic acids and alkali salts from organic acid alkali salts, separation/collection of lactic acids and alkali salts via an economic and eco-friendly diffusion analysis method without adding a complicated process such as electrodialysis or electrolysis. During a process of diffusion dialysis of organic acid salts, gaseous components that can release protons are injected into a collection part so that the electroneutrality in solution can be maintained and protons can be transferred to a feed part, thereby facilitating the collection of organic acids. Also, alkali cations that have moved to the collection part may form alkali salts with the gaseous components and be then collected, and a nonsolvent may be used to lower the solubility of the alkali salts for easy collection.

  • Publication number: 20230026024
    Abstract: Proposed is a two-pot-two-step simultaneous conversion system for carbon dioxide and a hydrocarbon containing at least one hydroxy group and a method thereof. The system integrates a process of producing a metal salt that is a dehydrogenated form of the hydrocarbon, hydrogen, and water by reacting a hydrocarbon containing at least one hydroxy group in the presence of water and a metal oxalate, and a process of converting carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide-derived carbonate into formate by hydrogenation, thereby increasing energy efficiency while maintaining a higher hydrocarbon conversion rate and a higher carbon dioxide conversion rate than the one-pot conversion system for hydrocarbon and carbon dioxide.

  • Publication number: 20220242980
    Abstract: In a method of producing an ethylene-carboxylic acid copolymer according to an embodiment of the present invention, a carboxylic acid monomer and a polar co-solvent are introduced separately into a mixing unit or stored together in a supply unit to form a mixture. The mixture and ethylene are injected into a reactor to be copolymerized. Reaction kinetic properties of the carboxylic acid monomer and the polar co-solvent are controlled to suppress a formation of by-products.
