  • Adsorbent for contaminant removal from C4 hydrocarbons
    Patent number: 10744492
    Abstract: A process is provided for removing contaminants from olefin containing C4 streams. The streams are contacted with an X based zeolite adsorbent comprising greater than 88% X zeolite at a SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of less than 2.5 and an alkali metal salt present in excess of an amount required to achieve full exchange of cation sites on the X based zeolite. The resulting alkali oxide on a volatile free basis is less than 1% (by mass) of the X based adsorbent. The contaminants that are removed include sulfur, oxygenate, and nitrogen based contaminants.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2017
    Date of Patent: August 18, 2020
    Assignee: UOP LLC

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOW TEMPERATURE PRINTING OF CONDUCTIVE METAL ALLOYS
    Publication number: 20190132958
    Abstract: System and method of producing on-demand three-dimensional (3D) printed devices on flexible substrates such as paper, plastic, or polymer using metal alloy nanopowders at low temperatures of printing in the range of 150 degrees Celsius (C) to 300 degrees C. The printer disclosed herein may employ a computer-aided design graphics file given as an input to the printer. The printer will selectively release and print the metal alloy nanopowders on select areas on the substrate to form a conductive pattern.
