20090099006 | ADDITIVE FOR MAXIMIZING LIGHT OLEFINS IN FCC AND PROCESS FOR PREPARATION THEREOF - The present, invention relates to a process for the production of additives for catalysts for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) based on zeolite that is selective for light olefins, with the aim of increasing the yields, in FCC units, of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and light olefins, of high added value, among others propene and isobutene. This invention provides a method of preparation of catalytic compositions, starting from zeolite modified with phosphate and alkaline-earth metal, that leads to the production of an additive with better performance than the additives, of similar compositions, obtained by other methods of the prior art. The process can be regarded as a development in relation to other processes, as it promotes interaction between the zeolite that is selective for light olefins and its activator, reagent “X”. For this, a separate stage is used during the sequence of stages in the preparation. Moreover, the zeolite does not undergo additional treatments such as filtration, washing or calcination after the treatment with its activator. | 04-16-2009 |

20140356259 | Selective Separation of Rare Earth Metals by Integrated Extraction and Crystallization - An integrated recovery process for rare earth recovery includes bringing the acid solution containing rare earth elements into contact with an organic phase containing an extraction agent to extract the rare earth elements into the organic phase. The organic phase is separated from the aqueous phase. The rare earth elements are either collected from the aqueous phase of the extraction process or the rare earth elements are stripped from the organic phase to an aqueous solution. Rare earth powders are collected from the aqueous solution by partly removing the aqueous solvent. Alternatively, the aqueous solvent can be completely removed, the collected rare earth powders are dissolved in an acidic solution, and the mixture is equilibrated for crystallization of the target rare earth element. In both cases, the crystals and a mother liquor are separated by solid/liquid separation. | 12-04-2014 |

20140258266 | METHODS AND APPARATUS OF SHARED EXPRESSION EVALUATION ACROSS RDBMS AND STORAGE LAYER - Techniques are provided for sharing expression evaluation across a database management system and a storage layer. According to an embodiment, a plurality of target operators are identified that include a common expression. Each respective target operator corresponds to a step that evaluates the common expression during query execution. The plurality of target operators are modified to enable sharing of an evaluation result of the common expression. The query is executed according to the target operators. During query execution, the evaluation result is shared by the target operators. In other embodiments, the evaluation of the common expression is pushed to a storage layer. During query execution, a database management system retrieves the evaluation result of the common expression from the storage layer. | 09-11-2014 |
