Sponsors: Petrochemical Processes 2010 Home Process Categories Company Index Hydrocarbon Processing’s Petrochemical Processes 2010 handbook reflects the dynamic ad- vancements now available in licensed process technologies, catalysts and equipment. The petrochemi- cal industry continues to apply energy-conserving, environmentally friendly, cost-effective solutions to produce products that improve the quality of everyday life. The global petrochemical industry is inno- vative—putting knowledge into action to create new products to that service the needs of current and future markets. HP’s Petrochemical Processes 2010 handbook is an inclusive catalog of established and leading-edge licensed technologies that can be applied to existing and grassroots facilities. Economic stresses drive ef- forts to conserve energy, minimize wastes, improve product qualities and, most important, increase yields and create new products. A full spectrum of licensed petrochemical technologies is featured here; over 191 active petrochemi- cal technologies are featured in Petrochemical Processes 2010. These include manufacturing processes for olefins, aromatics, polymers, acids/salts, aldehydes, ketones, nitrogen compounds, chlorides cyclo- compounds and refining feeds. Over 40 licensing companies have submitted process flow diagrams and informative process descriptions that include economic data, operating conditions, number of commer- cial installations and more. Also, HP’s Petrochemical Licensor Index is included. This index summarizes over 250 active petrochemical technologies from over 50 innovative petrochemical licensing companies and contact information for the licensors. To maintain as complete a listing as possible, the Petrochemical Processes 2010 handbook is available on CD-ROM and at our website to certain subscribers. Additional copies of the Petrochemical Processes 2010 handbook may be ordered from our website (www.hydrocarbonprocessing.com).

  • Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils
    Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils V. I. Babushok,a) P. J. Linstrom, and I. G. Zenkevichb) National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899, USA (Received 1 August 2011; accepted 27 September 2011; published online 29 November 2011) Gas chromatographic retention indices were evaluated for 505 frequently reported plant essential oil components using a large retention index database. Retention data are presented for three types of commonly used stationary phases: dimethyl silicone (nonpolar), dimethyl sili- cone with 5% phenyl groups (slightly polar), and polyethylene glycol (polar) stationary phases. The evaluations are based on the treatment of multiple measurements with the number of data records ranging from about 5 to 800 per compound. Data analysis was limited to temperature programmed conditions. The data reported include the average and median values of retention index with standard deviations and confidence intervals.

However, when substances belonging to the same UN number or identification number have different chemical properties, physical properties and/or carriage conditions, several consecutive rows may be used for that UN number or identification number. Each column of Table C is dedicated to a specific subject as indicated in the explanatory notes below. The intersection of columns and rows (cell) contains information concerning the subject treated in that column, for the substance(s) of that row: – The first four cells identify the substance(s) belonging to that row; – The following cells give the applicable special provisions, either in the form of complete information or in coded form. The codes cross-refer to detailed information that is to be found in the numbers indicated in the explanatory notes below. An empty cell means either that there is no special provision and that only the general requirements apply, or that the carriage restriction indicated in the explanatory notes is in force. The applicable general requirements are not referred to in the corresponding cells. Explanatory notes for each column: Column (1) “UN number/identification number” Contains the UN number or identification number: – of the dangerous substance if the substance has been assigned its own specific UN number or identification number, or – of the generic or n.o.s.

  • Adaptations of Guest and Host in Expanded Self-Assembled Capsules
    Adaptations of guest and host in expanded self-assembled capsules Dariush Ajami and Julius Rebek, Jr.* The Skaggs Institute for Chemical Biology and Department of Chemistry, The Scripps Research Institute MB-26, 10550 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037 Contributed by Julius Rebek, Jr., August 23, 2007 (sent for review August 2, 2007) Reversible encapsulation complexes create spaces where two or more molecules can be temporarily isolated. When the mobility of encapsulated molecules is restricted, different arrangements in space are possible, and new forms of isomerism (‘‘social isomer- ism’’) are created: the orientation of one encapsulated molecule influences that of the other in the confined space. Expansion of a capsule’s length is possible through addition of small-molecule spacer elements. The expanded capsules have dimensions that permit the observation of social isomerism of two identical guests, and they adopt arrangements that properly fill the host’s space. The host also can adapt to longer guests by incorporating addi- tional spacers, much as protein modules are added to a viral capsid in response to larger genomes. Arachidonic and related fatty acid derivatives act in this way to induce the assembly of further extended capsules having sufficient length to accommodate them. encapsulation ͉ self-assembly ͉ social isomers ncapsulation complexes are synthetic, self-assembled hosts Ethat more or less completely surround their guest molecules. They are dynamic and form reversibly in solution with lifetimes ranging from milliseconds to days. The capsules isolate mole- cules from the bulk solution, and they reveal behaviors that cannot be seen otherwise. They have become a tool of modern Fig.
