Title: Catalytic filter made from silicon carbide (-sic) for the combustion of soot from exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine
Inventor: PHAM CHARLOTTE
IPC: B01J27/224
Filed: 2004-10-13
Abstract: The production of a filtering medium of a beta -SiC sponge with a specific surface of at least 5 m 2>/g and incorporating two zones with a different porosity distribution comprises: preparing a polyurethane sponge, incorporating two zones with different porosity foaming the polymer pyrolyzing the sponge to form a carbon sponge, activating the carbon sponge and exposing the activated carbon sponge to a SiO 2vapor to form a silicon carbide sponge. The production of a filtering medium of a beta -SiC sponge with a specific surface of at least 5 m 2>/g and incorporating two zones with a different porosity distribution comprises: (a) preparing a medium precursor of carbonizable sponge with an open honeycomb porosity, such as a polyurethane sponge, incorporating two zones with different porosity, that is impregnated with a hardenable resin; (b) reticulating the resin; (c) pyrolyzing the sponge to form a carbon sponge; (d) activating the carbon sponge by heating it under a sweeping of carbon dioxide at 700-1000 [deg] C; and (e) exposing the activated carbon sponge to a SiO 2vapor to form a silicon carbide sponge. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a component of beta -SiC sponge produced by the above process; and (2) a device with a catalytic filtering cartridge incorporating this filtering medium.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel apparatus to grow cells or microorganisms where the cultivation chamber is partially filled with liquid cultivation medium and cells. The wave induction mechanism lifts up between 5 and 50 % of the length of the culture chamber. Mixing and aeration is achieved by inducing intermittently waves from one extremity of the bioreactor to the other. As the design of the invention is very simple, it is possible to manufacture it with flexible plastic material and use the apparatus as a disposable system. Moreover, such a mixing/aeration principle minimizes cell damages usually due to shear stress and small bubbles. Since the waves induction mechanism is very simple, it allows easy and efficient scale-up from small scale to a larger one. Such a large-scale, efficient and disposable culture system can largely reduce production costs.
