20090069496 | COHERENT GEL COATING FOR PREVENTING AND/OR EXTINGUISHING FIRES - A method for applying water-laden polymer to a surface to prevent and/or extinguish a fire, the method comprising the steps of dispersing a dry, ground, superabsorbent polymer comprising particles of 20 microns or less in diameter to water in an amount sufficient to form a coherent polymer gel, and directing the coherent polymer gel onto a surface to prevent and/or extinguish a fire. | 03-12-2009 |
20090151963 | Method of Preventing or Extinguishing Fires - In the prevention of the spread of fires and for directly fighting fires, a cross-linked, water-swellable additive polymer in a vegetable oil dispersion is added to firefighting water. The additive has the properties of absorbing large quantities of water, high viscosity for adherence to vertical and horizontal surfaces, and retention of sufficient fluidity to be educted in standard firefighting equipment. The method of adding this additive to the firefighting water by eduction, pumping, or batch addition to the source water is also disclosed. | 06-18-2009 |
20100187181 | Method for Dispersing and Aggregating Components of Mineral Slurries - The disclosure relates generally to the use of zeolite to assist in dispersion of components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry and, in particular, to the use of zeolite in the recovery of bitumen from an oil sands slurry, water recovery from the slurry, and the subsequent consolidation of residual mineral solids. | 07-29-2010 |
20120018383 | METHOD FOR DISPERSING AND AGGREGATING COMPONENTS OF MINERAL SLURRIES - The disclosure relates generally to the use of zeolite to assist in dispersion of components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry and, in particular, to the use of zeolite in the recovery of bitumen from an oil sands slurry, water recovery from the slurry, and the subsequent consolidation of residual mineral solids. | 01-26-2012 |
20130186838 | METHOD FOR DISPERSING AND AGGREGATING COMPONENTS OF MINERAL SLURRIES AND HIGH-MOLECULAR WEIGHT MULTIVALENT POLYMERS FOR CLAY AGGREGATION - The disclosure relates generally to the use of polymers to assist in aggregating mineral components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry. | 07-25-2013 |
20130190431 | Method for Dispersing and Aggregating Components of Mineral Slurries and Low Molecular Weight Multivalent Polymers for Mineral Aggregation - The disclosure relates generally to the use of low molecular weight polymers to aggregate mineral components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry. | 07-25-2013 |
20140213749 | LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT MULTIVALENT CATION-CONTAINING ACRYLATE POLYMERS - Low molecular weight polymers useful in aggregating mineral components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry. | 07-31-2014 |
20150353664 | Multivalent Polymers for Clay Aggregation - The disclosure relates generally to the use of polymers to assist in aggregating mineral components in aqueous mineral slurries to release and separate individual components of the slurry, which may then be recovered from the slurry. | 12-10-2015 |
