Inventor: HASHEMI REZA
IPC: C10G49/24
Filed: 2006-03-28
Abstract: A Process for hydroconverting of a heavy hydrocarbonaceous feedstock comprising a catalyst to produce lower boiling hydrocarbon products. The method can be used for the high- boiling point residues of oil refining (asphaltene, the residues of vacuum and under pressure distillation of oil, and the useless and heavy materials of thermo catalytic processes), heavy oil, natural bitumen, and bitumen-containing sands. It can also be used in oil refinery industries for the production of gas, gasoline fractions, distillation gas oil, concentrate of ash containing metals and chemical fertilizers. The process overcomes disadvantages like low conversions, coke production during the reaction, touchiness to the feed (to the metals and solids present in the feed which deactivate the catalyst), high investment and operational costs and the need for pre-purification units, for the elimination of heavy substances.

Title: A method for ameliorating sodicity in soil
Inventor: ASHWORTH JOHN
IPC: B09C1/08
Filed: 2006-07-04
Abstract: I have shown that:   (1) Sodic soils, sodic materials, or mixtures of soil and sodic materials, having high SAR values that are detrimental to soil performance and which may also exceed published regulatory threshold levels can, by means of treatment with chelating agents that cause release of calcium and magnesium, be ameliorated so that SAR values fall to non-detrimental levels, without at the same time causing unsuitable increase in salinity (EC).    (2) Permeability of sodic soil markedly improved after treatment with chelating agents. (3) Using the synthetic chelating agent EDTA, the low SAR values of treated sodic materials were persistent.   (4) EDTA added to sodic, alkaline drilling cuttings did not decompose during a test using conditions simulating actual drilling.   (5) Sodic soil treated with EDTA was non-toxic in the Microtox.TM. bioassay.
