Title: Vapor phase aromatics alkylation process
Inventor: ELIA CHRISTINE NICOLE
IPC: C10G50/00
Filed: 2006-02-28
Abstract: A process for the production of high octane number gasoline from light refinery olefins and benzene-containing aromatic streams such as reformate.  The process achieves good utilization of both the ethylene and the propylene present in the mixed olefin feed from the unsaturated gas plant while reducing gasoline benzene levels. The light olefins including ethylene and propylene are reacted with the light aromatic stream containing benzene and other single ring aromatic compounds to form a gasoline boiling range product containing akylaromatics. The reaction is carried out with a two-catalyst system which comprises a member of the MWW family of zeolites and an intermediate pore size zeolite such as ZSM-5 using a fixed catalyst bed in both stages. Use of the two catalyst system enables the conversion of the ethylene and propylene components of the olefin feed to be converted to alkylaromatics under favorable conditions.

Title: Rotor blade for a high speed rotary-wing aircraft
Inventor: KRAUSS TIMOTHY A
IPC: B64C27/46
Filed: 2006-04-28
Abstract: A main rotor blade exhibiting a unique planform shape in which the blade chord increases from the root end of the blade inboard region to the outer main region of the blade, where the blade chord achieves a maximum chord at a spanwise location within the main region, then decreases toward a distal tip end. The leading edge preferably is generally straight while the trailing edge is contoured to define the chord. Another characteristic feature of the rotor blade design is the location of the blade-feathering axis in which the feathering axis is located at a mid chord position over some inboard length of the rotor blade then transitions to a quarter chord location. Another characteristic feature is an airfoil distribution along the blade span that transitions from a blunt trailing edge to a sharp trailing edge airfoil suited for mid-range Mach number operation. The tip region preferably utilizes a transonic flow airfoil. Another characteristic feature of the rotor blade design is an unconventional combination of positive and negative twist gradients.
