  • Delivery systems for delivering functional compounds to substrates and processes of using the same
    Patent number: 9283188
    Abstract: Delivery systems for incorporating functional compounds into substrates for use in various consumer products are disclosed. Specifically, the delivery system includes a carrier component comprising an ultrasonically energized adsorbent and one or more functional compounds. The ultrasonically energized adsorbent can adsorb the desired functional compounds and bind the functional compounds to the surface of the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 8, 2006
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2016
    Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.
    Inventors: Robert Allen Janssen, Earl C. McCraw, Jr., Kimberlee Fay Thompson, John Gavin MacDonald, Thomas David Ehlert, Patrick Sean McNichols
  • Ultrasonic treatment system for separating compounds from aqueous effluent
    Patent number: 8034286
    Abstract: Novel ultrasonic treatment systems for separating compounds in an aqueous effluent and processes for using the ultrasonic treatment systems are disclosed. More particularly, the ultrasonic treatment systems use ultrasonic energy to energize adsorbent to provide efficient and effective removal of compounds from aqueous effluents, such as textile effluents.
