  • Patent number: 10646848
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel RHO zeolites useful as kinetically selective adsorbents for oxygen and/or nitrogen. The adsorbents can be used in pressure swing adsorption processes for selectively adsorbing oxygen and/or nitrogen from feed streams such as an air stream or crude argon stream. Also disclosed are novel methods of preparing RHO zeolites, including in particular mixed-cation RHO zeolites.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 28, 2017
    Date of Patent: May 12, 2020
    Assignee: Air Products and Chemicals, Inc.
    Inventors: Magdalena M. Lozinska, Paul A. Wright, Elliott L. Bruce, William Jack Casteel, Jr., Shubhra Jyoti Bhadra, Robert Quinn, Garret Chi-Ho Lau, Erin Marie Sorensen, Roger Dean Whitley, Timothy Christopher Golden, Mohammad Ali Kalbassi
  • Patent number: 10343139
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are new processes for adsorbing oxygen using adsorbent compositions comprising RHO zeolites kinetically selective for oxygen. The RHO zeolites can be used in pressure swing adsorption processes for separating oxygen from oxygen containing streams, such as for, but not limited to, purifying a crude argon feed stream or separating oxygen from an air feed stream.

  • Patent number: 9868116
    Abstract: Fe-SAPO-34 silicoaluminophosphates having Fe2+ organic complexes and methods for their direct synthesis in the absence of a co-templating agent are described. Fe-SAPO-34 silicoaluminophosphate having Fe3+ located in extra-framework locations within the pores of cages of the crystal are described. They are prepared by calcining the Fe-SAPO-34 silicoaluminphosphates containing Fe2+ polyamine complexes. Methods of using the Fe-SAPO-34 having Fe3+ located in extra-framework locations within the pores of cages of the crystal in the treatment of exhaust gases are described.

  • Patent number: 9333925
    Abstract: A portable, foldable, one-piece device that attaches to an automobile steering wheel as a holder for a variety of electronic or non-electronic devices. A clear vinyl pocket can hold notebook computers, electronic reading devices, fire and police command boards, clipboards, books, newspapers, phone lists, while keeping them completely visible. The durable, single piece, washable construction has no moving parts. It can be folded and easily stored on the visor of a vehicle. Hook and loop fastener strips may be sewn to the device for added utility. Accessories may be temporarily affixed to these fasteners: such as writing utensils, note pads, lights, pictures, or other personal or work related items. A small pocket is sewn alongside the larger clear pocket for storage if desired. The device can be mounted to the passenger side dash with additional fasteners.
