摘要:
Disclosed herein are processes for removing water from organic solvents, such as ethanol. The processes include distillation in two columns operated at sequentially higher pressure, followed by treatment of the overhead vapor by one or two membrane separation steps.

摘要:
A process for separating hydrogen from a multicomponent gas mixture containing hydrogen and a hydrocarbon, using gas-separation membranes selective for hydrogen over the hydrocarbon. The membranes use a selective layer made from a polymer having repeating units of a fluorinated polymer, and demonstrate good resistance to plasticization by the organic components in the gas mixture under treatment, and good recovery after exposure to liquid aromatic hydrocarbons.
摘要:
Processes and apparatus for providing improved catalytic cracking, specifically improved recovery of olefins, LPG or hydrogen from catalytic crackers. The improvement is achieved by passing part of the wet gas stream across membranes selective in favor of light hydrocarbons over hydrogen.
摘要:
Processes and apparatus for providing improved catalytic reforming, specifically improved recovery of reformate and hydrogen from catalytic reformers. The improvement is achieved by passing portions of the reactor effluent or streams derived from the reactor effluent across membranes selective in favor of light hydrocarbons over hydrogen.
摘要:
A process for treating gas streams containing hydrogen and hydrocarbons. The process includes a membrane conditioning step to remove C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 hydrocarbons, followed by a selective adsorption or membrane separation step to separate hydrogen from methane. The membrane conditioning step uses a membrane selective for C.sub.5 -C.sub.8 hydrocarbons over hydrogen.
摘要:
The invention provides for the transdermal delivery of the active enantiomer of the analgesic ketorolac. Transdermal patches according to the invention are capable of delivering (-) ketorolac to a patient at therapeutically effective levels, at a flux rate of 20 .mu.g/cm.sup.2.hr or more. Patches for use in the present invention may be adhesive matrix, monolithic matrix, or liquid reservoir transdermal patches.
摘要:
Improved membranes and improved membrane processes for treating gas streams containing hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, water vapor and methane, particularly natural gas streams. The processes rely on the availability of two membrane types, one of which has a hydrogen sulfide/methane selectivity of at least about 40 when measured with multicomponent gas mixtures at high pressure. Based on the different permeation properties of the two membrane types, optimized separation processes can be designed.

The membrane separation is combined with non-membrane treatment of the residue and/or permeate streams.
摘要:
A method for treating conditions responsive to nicotine therapy, and particularly for smoking cessation therapy and for reducing nicotine craving, is described that utilizes transdermal nicotine delivery for obtaining base-line nicotine plasma levels coupled with transmucosal administration of nicotine to satisfy transient craving.
