Patents by Inventor Jacques Van Weynbergh

Jacques Van Weynbergh has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8420702
    Abstract: Process for recycling a fiber reinforced polymer article, according to which the article, eventually cut in fragments, is dissolved in a solvent capable of dissolving the polymer but not the fibers and which is susceptible of forming an azeotrope with water, forming a solution; the fibers are recovered from the solution; the fibers are washed with solvent by putting them in the form of a slurry in the solvent and by agitating the slurry and/or by making the solvent circulate through it; the washed fibers are recovered from the slurry; and the recovered fibers are submitted to a stripping with steam in order to substantially remove the solvent.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 7, 2009
    Date of Patent: April 16, 2013
    Assignee: Solvay S.A.
    Inventors: Jacques Van Weynbergh, Stephane Noel

  • Patent number: 5500202
    Abstract: Process for the manufacture of an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide by direct synthesis from hydrogen and oxygen in a three-phase system, according to which hydrogen and oxygen are reacted directly in the gaseous state at the surface of a solid heterogeneous catalyst, the reaction being performed continuously in a reactor with a stationary trickle bed, filled with solid catalyst particles forming the stationary bed through which a liquid consisting of an aqueous solution and the gas phase containing the hydrogen and oxygen are made to trickle concurrently.

  • Patent number: 5447706
    Abstract: Method for the direct synthesis of an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxyde from hydrogen and oxygen by hydrogenous catalysis in a three-phase system in which the hydrogen and oxygen are reacted directly in a gas state, at a pressure above atmospheric pressure, on the surface of a solid hydrogenous catalyst in suspension in a granular state in an aqueous liquid phase, said catalyst consisting of a metal compound selected from pure palladium or an association of palladium with at least one other noble metal, and impregnated on a substrate comprising at least one compound selected from alkaline-earth metal sulfates or phosphates. A catalyst is disclosed for the production of an aqueous liquid phase of hydrogen peroxyde consisting of a metal compound selected from pure palladium or an association of palladium with at least one another noble metal, and impregnated on a substrate comprising at least one compound selected from alkaline-earth metal sulfates or phosphates.
