Publication number: 20240102194Abstract: A plating system and a method thereof are disclosed. The plating system performs a N-stage plating drilling filling process in which a M-th stage plating drilling filling process with a M-th current density is performed on a hole of a substrate for a M-th plating time to form a M-th plating layer on the to-be-plated layer, wherein N is a positive integer equal to or greater than 3, and M is a positive integer positive integer in a range of 1 to N. Therefore, the technical effect of providing a higher drilling filling rate than conventional plating filling technology under a condition that a total thickness of plating layers is fixed can be achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Cheng-EN HO, Yu-Lian CHEN, Cheng-Chi WANG, Yu-Jen CHANG, Yung-Sheng LU, Cheng-Yu LEE, Yu-Ming LIN

Patent number: 9266804Abstract: A dual-bed catalytic distillation tower has a catalytic column having an upper catalytic bed filled with low temperature dehydration catalysts and a lower catalytic bed filled with high temperature dehydration catalysts. When using the dual-bed catalytic distillation tower, the feeding may be fed to the tower at the top of the upper catalytic bed, between the upper and lower catalytic beds, or at the bottom of the lower catalytic bed for dehydration to obtain DME. The dual-bed catalytic distillation tower has the advantage of flexible set-up depending on various feedings such as anhydrous or crude methanol and on different grades of DME to be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: February 23, 2016Assignee: CPC CorporationInventors: Wei-Bin Su, Karl Tze-Tang Chuang, Tzong-Bin Lin, Cheng-Tsung Hong, Hung-Chung Shen, Yung-Sheng Ho

Patent number: 9067846Abstract: Various substantially styrene-, methylstyrene- and ethylbenzene-free C6-C9 aromatic hydrocarbon blends are produced from a hydrocarbon feed stream containing C5-C9 aromatic hydrocarbons including styrene, methylstyrene and sulphur compounds by first separating the stream into a distillate containing C5-C7 hydrocarbons, and a bottoms fraction containing C8 and C9 hydrocarbons; and converting the styrene and methylstyrene to their corresponding ethers by reacting with a C1-C3 lower alcohol in the presence of a selective acidic etherification catalyst. The effluent may be sent to a gasoline pool for blending or the effluent is separated by distillation into an ether stream and either a C8 or a C8-C9 aromatic hydrocarbon rich stream. The C5-C7 distillate is hydrogenated.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2013Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignees: AMT International Inc., CPC Corporation, TaiwanInventors: Karl Tze-Tang Chuang, Tzong-Bin Lin, Cheng-Tsung Hong, Yung-Sheng Ho, Kuang-Yeu Wu

Patent number: 8680358Abstract: A method for cross connecting the lean solvent supply lines between the liquid liquid extraction (LLE) and the extractive distillation (ED) processes thereby using the LLE column as the outlet for removing accumulated heavy hydrocarbons (HCs) and polymeric materials from the solvent loop of both processes to maintain their solvent performance. The unique capabilities of the LLE column in rejecting heavy HCs from the solvent into a raffinate product stream that leaves the system enable the removal of the accumulated heavy HCs and polymeric materials from the closed solvent loop of the ED process when their lean solvent loop are cross connected. Cross connection requires minimum equipment change. In the revamped system, the solvent recovery column (SRC) in LLE process supplies lean solvent for the extractive distillation column while the SRC of the ED process supplies lean solvent for LLE column.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2013Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignees: AMT International, Inc., CPC Corporation, TaiwanInventors: Fu-Ming Lee, Tzong-Bin Lin, Kuang-Yeu Wu, Jyh-Haur Hwang, Tsung-Min Chiu, Ciputra Jap, Yung-Sheng Ho

Patent number: 8636907Abstract: A two-stage sealed magnetic filter continuously removes magnetic and non-magnetic contaminants from liquid process streams. Elongated non-magnetic holder sleeves encasing magnet bars attract magnetic contaminants while a screen cylinder captures non-magnetic contaminants. The magnet bars are accessible without having to open the interior of the housing to the environment. Thus, during maintenance, removing the magnet bars from the holder sleeves releases the magnetic contaminants that have adhered to the holder sleeves into the screen cylinder which partially encloses the holder sleeves. Contaminants are flushed out of the magnetic filter without exposing workers to potentially hazardous substances. Polymeric sludge occluded with iron compounds can be effectively removed from streams in refineries and chemical plants. The iron compounds are formed from carbon steel which is prevalent in plant machinery and that corrodes in the presence of acidic contaminants.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2013Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignees: AMT International, Inc., CPC Corporation, TaiwanInventors: Tzong-Bin Lin, Fu-Ming Lee, Ming-Hsung Liu, Cheng-Tsung Hong, Yung-Sheng Ho, Kuang-Yeu Wu

Patent number: 6627775Abstract: An improved process to prepare poly(oxyalkylene)amide for gasoline additives involves three consecutive reactions. The reactions are (1) amidation of water-soluble low molecular weight of polyalkylene polyamine with alkyl acetate at an elevated temperature under N2 pressure to convert amines to amides, (2) Butoxylation of the amides with 1,2-epoxybutane to prepare the poly(oxyalkylene) amides, and (3) selective hydrolysis of in situ poly(oxyalkylene)-amine-ester-amides into poly(oxyalkylene)-amine-alcohol-amides and removal of acetic acid byproducts, via acid/base hydrolysis and water extraction procedures. The process step of selective hydrolysis is essential for removal the harmful composition of poly(oxyalkylene)-amine-ester-amides in resulting the better performance of the additive, particularly the positive engine's octane requirement or reducing the combustion chamber deposits.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2002Date of Patent: September 30, 2003Assignee: Chinese Petroleum CorporationInventors: Jiang-Jen Lin, Yung-Sheng Ho, Wei-Shiun Ku, Wen-Jei Shiu, Che-Nan Lee

Patent number: 6454818Abstract: The present invention is one kind of gasoline additives. The compounds consist of tertiary amine, amide and poly(oxybutylene) backbone in the same molecule. The process of making this type of products required an initiator containing primary amine and tertiary amine as the starting diamines. The primary amine will be converted into amide, while the tertiary amine remained intact. Then the amide is converted into butoxylates through butoxylation at CON—H position. The preparation therefore involved two steps: (1) amidation of diamines containing primary/tertiary amines with ethyl acetate to form amidoamines, and (2) butoxylation of this amidoamines to poly(oxybutylene)amidoamine. The product is gasoline soluble and can be used as additive having good performance of detergency and octane requirement reduction.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2000Date of Patent: September 24, 2002Assignee: Chinese Petroleum Corp.Inventors: Jiang-Jen Lin, Wei-Shiun Ku, Che-Nan Lee, Yung-Sheng Ho, Kun-Hai Lin, Kuo-Min Wei
