Patent CA-2559546-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MARCHAL LUC
IPC: G01N30/42
Filed: 2005-03-17
Abstract: Méthode pour dimensionner les cellules d'une « colonne » de chromatographie liquide-liquide centrifuge (colonne CPC) constituée de disques empilés, sur lesquels sont gravés les cellules reliées en cascade (en série) par des petits canaux. La rotation de la pile crée un champ d'accélération centrifuge important qui permet de maintenir immobile une phase liquide, dite stationnaire, tandis qu'une phase mobile circule le long de la colonne CPC.  Les cellules sont tridimensionnelles avec deux dimensions (L, 1) des cellules étant orientées dans un plan sensiblement normal à l'axe de rotation (.OMEGA.) du disque et une troisième dimension (e) qui est dirigée selon une direction sensiblement parallèle à l'axe de rotation, et que l'on choisit de façon qu'elle soit au moins égale à l'une des deux autres dimensions (L, 1), ce qui procure une meilleure efficacité. Quand on doit changer l'échelle des appareils, on modifie la taille des cellules en veillant dans tous les cas à  privilégier cette troisième dimension (e) qui doit être la plus grande possible. - Applications à la conception d'appareils de chromatographie analytique ou préparative.

Title: High-load glyphosate formulations
Inventor: WHEWELL CHRISTOPHER J
IPC: A01P13/00
Filed: 2005-09-29
Abstract: By the present invention, a surfactant system containing glyphosate has been created which can be used to yield formulations containing an ultra-high load of glyphosate, in which the glyphosate concentration is higher than previously possible in any agriculturally-acceptable formulation. Higher loadings are desirable to reduce shipping and container costs, as well as reduce wastes.  The higher loading reduces storage requirements and allows the farmer to handle less volume of pesticide. The main advantage is that maximizing the loading minimizes the cost to deliver the active ingredient, which in turn maximizes economy in use of glyphosate.
