A main slide-valve body has two pairs of aligned inlet and outlet ports 3, 7 and 4, 8 whilst the main valve 9 has two cross bores 14, 15 which in the position shown interconnects each of these pairs of ports 3, 7 and 4, 8 ; each bore 14, 15 houses a check valve 18, 19 that sits in the associated inlet port 3, 4. The valve 9 is loaded rightwards by a spring 23 acting via a ball 24, this end of the valve bore 2 being vented by an opening 25. At the other end of the bore 2 is a transverse pilot slide-valve 27 with an adjustable loading 29 and a cross-bore 31 which interconnects the two parts of a duct 34, one part of which is vented; the cross-bore 31 houses a check valve 32. The two valves 9, 27 are correctly oriented by dowels 35, 36. The outlets 7, 8 may be connected to the ends of an actuator and the inlets 3, 4 connected to a fluid supply via a further valve, not shown, that supplies fluid to one end of the actuator and exhausts the other end through the valve described. A pilot valve inlet 28 is also connected to the fluid supply. The valve 27 is thereby displaced to close the vent port of duct 34 whilst leakage past the valve 27 displaces the valve 9 to interconnect the inlet and outlets. Should the fluid supply fail the pilot valve 27 is returned to the position shown and opens the vent 34 to disconnect the inlets and outlets.

Title: A process for splitting up mixtures of hydrocarbons
IPC: C10G21/16
Filed: 1939-06-21
Abstract: 530,337. Splitting mixtures of hydrocarbons. NAAMLOOZE VENNOOTSCHAP DE BATAAFSCHE PETROLEUM MAATSCHAPPIJ. June 21, 1939, No. 18101. Convention date, July 2, 1938. [Class 91] Mixtures of hydrocarbons are split by fractional extraction with an organic solvent, the solvent power of which has been reduced by wholly or partly saturating it either with a compound forming an additional compound with the solvent, or with an inorganic compound which is soluble in the solvent, wherein either the concentration of the extracting agent in the selectively modifying substance is varied, or wherein the extraction is carried out by starting with small amounts of the extracting agent and progressively increasing the amount thereof. The selective modification of the solvents may be carried out in cases where the solvent has a secondary valency, by the complete or partial saturation of this valency. Addition compounds mentioned include ferrous, ferric, or colbaltihydrocyanic acid, also hydrochloric acid in those cases where the other substances present are inert to hydrochloric acid. This embodiment applies particularly to alcohols and ketones. Aliphatic alcohols may be modified by calcium chloride and bromide and diethyl ether by magnesium bromide or by aluminium chloride or bromide. Organic solvents which may or may not possess a secondary solvency are modified by the addition of an inorganic compound to complete or partial saturation. Organic solvents not miscible with water but which take up small amounts of water may be modified by partial or complete saturation with water. This applies to isobutyl and isoamyl alcohols and to methyl-ethyl ketone. Organic solvents miscible with water may be selectively modified by the gradual addition of water in stages. This applies to methyl, ethyl, and propyl alcohols and to acetone. As the hydrocarbons to be extracted from the mixture progressively increase in their number of carbon atoms, so the modifying agent used is varied, or the amount of it used is varied. The method of regeneration of the substances used in the process depends on the method of modification used, and various methods are described. The process may be used not only to separate mixtures of pure hydrocarbons, including solid hydrocarbons, but also to separate hydrocarbons from other organic substances.
