Publication number: 20240317694Abstract: The invention discloses a purification method and system of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMMO), and a N-methylmorpholine N-oxide obtained thereof. The invention is used for recovering and purifying NMMO in a lyocell fiber coagulation bath. The method comprises: performing flocculation, microfiltration, ultrafiltration and nanofiltration membrane separation process to the lyocell fiber coagulation bath to remove macromolecular impurities such as suspending substance, heavy metal ions, heavy metal complexes, polysaccharides, etc., and then performing cooling crystallization between ?20° C. and 78° C. to obtain NMMO hydrate crystals. The NMMO hydrate crystals obtained by the method provided in the invention do not contain PG, PG oxidation products, cellulose breakdown products, and NMMO decomposition products, which are present in the coagulation bath. The NMMO hydrate crystals are added with water to prepare a NMMO aqueous solution with a concentration of 19.8%, and the electrical conductivity is about 14.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2022Publication date: September 26, 2024Inventors: Wanli LU, Jie MA

Publication number: 20240279192Abstract: The invention discloses a purification method, system and a detection method of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMMO), and a N-methylmorpholine N-oxide obtained thereof. The NMMO is derived from a NMMO crude product prepared by the reaction of N-methylmorpholine with hydrogen peroxide. The mass concentration of NMMO in the NMMO crude product is 50% to 60%. The purification method includes: performing cooling crystallization to the NMMO crude product between ?20° C. and 78° C. to obtain crystalline NMMO. The NMMO purification method has a low cost, a high purity of the obtained NMMO product, and almost no generation of exhaust gas, waste water, and solid waste. Different from current NMMO purification process, the purification method of the invention does not require ion-exchange resin, thus completely solved problems of significant amount of wastewater with high concentration of salt and COD and spent ion-exchange resin caused by the regeneration of ion-exchange resin.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2022Publication date: August 22, 2024Inventors: Wanli LU, Jie MA

Patent number: 9490315Abstract: The invention provides a power semiconductor device and a method of fabricating the same and a cutoff ring. A cutoff ring located at a periphery of an active area of the power semiconductor device is etched forming at least one trench below which an implant area is formed by implanting ions into the trench, and a silicon dioxide dielectric layer covering the trench and a surface of the active area, are formed. Since the ions are implanted into the trench formed by etching the cutoff ring to thereby increase a depth of the implanted ions and a density of the cutoff ring, a width of the cutoff ring can be shortened to thereby address the technical problem of a considerable area of a chip occupied by the cutoff ring and improve a utilization ratio of the area of the chip so as to lower a cost of fabricating the chip.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2015Date of Patent: November 8, 2016Assignees: Peking University Founder Group Co., Ltd., Founder Microelectronics International Co., Ltd.Inventors: Li Li, Wanli Ma, Shengzhe Zhao
