Publication number: 20230101316Abstract: The present disclosure provides novel solid sorbents synthesized by the reaction of polyamines with polyaldehyde phosphorus dendrimer (P-dendrimer) compounds for metal sequestration. The sorbents are highly stable and exhibit desirable thermodynamics and reaction kinetics with a wide variety of metals including heavy metals and rare earth elements. The sorbents can be easily regenerated for repeated use to extract metals from an aqueous solution. The materials are stable to aqueous and organic media, as well as strong acid and bases. The sorbents maintain full capacity over many cycles of use.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2020Publication date: March 30, 2023Inventors: Samuel John THOMPSON, III, Mustapha SOUKRI

Patent number: 10994261Abstract: The present disclosure provides novel solid sorbents synthesized by the reaction of polyamines with polyaldehyde phosphorous dendrimer (P-dendrimer) compounds. The sorbents are highly stable and exhibit rapid reaction kinetics with carbon dioxide, making the sorbents applicable for carbon capture, and can be easily regenerated for further use. The material is stable to aqueous and organic media, as well as strong acid and bases. The sorbent maintains full capacity over extended use. The material can be used for CO2 capture from pure CO2 streams, mixed gas streams, simulated flue gas, and ambient air. Additionally, the material can be adhered to surfaces for reversible CO2 capture applications outside of bulk particle-based processes.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2019Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Assignee: RESEARCH TRIANGLE INSTITUTEInventors: Samuel John Thompson, III, Mustapha Soukri

Publication number: 20160063602Abstract: A product seller site distributes on a pay for placement basis placed product with purchased product when the purchased product is delivered, where the placed product is associated with the purchased product by at least one specific characteristic. For example, the owner of a product funds an account and supplies product samples to be distributed to customers purchasing similar products. Further, the product owners bid or pay a fee to place their product with the customer. When the customer purchases a product, a search engine determines which products from a database of products available for placement meet the search criteria and offers to distribute the placement product with the purchased product. The search criteria comprise matching the purchased product with similar products to be placed with the purchased product and finding the highest bidder or fee from the group of matching placement products.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2015Publication date: March 3, 2016Inventors: Michael John Campion, James Alexander Langteaux, Christopher John Falson, Franklin John Thompson, III

Patent number: 5480062Abstract: A vacuum operated system for individually dispensing items of oral solid medicine from bulk storage to a user, where the medicine is dispensed under computer control, and the quantity and type of medicine is selected in advance by the user. The invention includes medicine dispensing equipment and a computer that provides a user interface. A plurality of storage containers arranged in a rotatable carousel or a rectilinear array may contain various pharmaceutical articles, or various types, dosages, ages, and lot numbers of medicines. The storage containers may be easily refilled by inserting modular refill cartridges into the storage containers. After a user enters certain data into the computer, the invention aligns a universal vacuum probe with the storage container that contains the desired items. The universal vacuum probe is lowered to the desired storage container and engaged with a container probe that is exclusive to that storage container.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 1995Date of Patent: January 2, 1996Assignee: KVM Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Lisa W. Rogers, Thomas L. Kraft, John F. Berry, Scott A. Kelley, John A. Thompson, III, Clifford D. Ober, Michael C. Kuchar, Robert R. Mayer, Jr., Van W. Hoskins, Vincent C. Weido, Mark G. Henckel
