  • Patent number: 11572511
    Abstract: A process for converting pyrolysis effluent stream into hydrocarbon products. Waste plastics are pyrolyzed at high temperature in a pyrolysis reactor to obtain a plastic pyrolysis effluent stream. The plastic pyrolysis effluent stream is further sent to a steam cracking unit for the separation of plastic pyrolysis effluent stream into a C5+ hydrocarbon stream and a C4 hydrocarbon stream. The pyrolysis reactor is operated at a to obtain hydrocarbon products of high value.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 28, 2021
    Date of Patent: February 7, 2023
    Assignee: UOP LLC

  • Patent number: 10801105
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of processes for the generation of thin inorganic films on substrates, in particular atomic layer deposition processes. The present invention relates to a process comprising bringing a compound of general formula (I) into the gaseous or aerosol state and depositing the compound of general formula (I) from the gaseous or aerosol state onto a solid substrate, wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independent of each other an alkyl group, an aryl group or a trialkylsilyl group, M is Mn, Ni or Co, X is a ligand which coordinates M, wherein at least one X is a neutrally charged ligand, m is 1, 2 or 3 and n is at least 1 wherein the molecular weight of the compound of general formula (I) is up to 1000 g/mol.

  • Patent number: 7158856
    Abstract: An apparatus for enabling part picking in a manufacturing facility comprises a conveyor 30 for transporting containers each bearing a barcode defining a plurality of parts to be placed in the container and, disposed at intervals along the conveyor, a plurality of barcode readers 26, a plurality of part storage racks 34, and a plurality of display screens 36. A control system 44, 46, 48 can selectively assign the code readers, storage racks and display screens to one or more zones each including at least one active barcode reader, at least one active display screen and at least one storage rack. In operation the control system displays on at least one display screen of each zone the parts to be picked from the at least one storage rack according to the barcode read by the at least one active scanner.
