Process For The Extended Use Of Strip Acid Employed In The Reclamation Of Battery Acid Fluid From Expanded Lead-Acid Batteries
US Patent:
5009868, Apr 23, 1991
Filed:
Dec 21, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/454770
Inventors:
Robert A. Spitz - Holbrook MA
Mark Bricker - Kutztown PA
Mark Bricker - Kutztown PA
Assignee:
East Penn Manufacturing Co., Inc. - Lyon Station PA
International Classification:
C01B 1790
US Classification:
423139
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a process for rejuvenation of strip acid employed in the reclamation of expended lead-acid battery acid through extraction and filtration for removing metallic impurities from the battery acid. In the process of removing impurities from battery acid through extraction, the extractant becomes loaded with impurities and loses its effectiveness. Extractant may be regenerated by contacting it with an strip acid. In the present invention, a reduction process is employed to regenerate the strip acid so that it may be used repeatedly. By recycling the extractant and the strip acid in the present invention, the present process further increases the effectiveness of battery acid regeneration--producing a reclaimed battery acid fluid which performs very well in new batteries and substantially reducing by-product waste in the regeneration of the battery acid.
Process For The Reclamation Of Battery Acid And Fluid From Expended Lead-Acid Batteries
US Patent:
4971780, Nov 20, 1990
Filed:
Feb 17, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/312429
Inventors:
Robert A. Spitz - Holbrook MA
Assignee:
East Penn Manufacturing Co., Inc. - Lyon Station PA
International Classification:
C01B 1790, B01D 1100, H01M 650, H01M 1042
US Classification:
423531
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a process of extraction and filtration for removing metallic impurities from the acid in used lead-acid batteries. Produced is a reclaimed battery acid fluid which performs very well in new batteries and which avoids the severe costs and environmental risks entailed in present methods of battery acid fluid disposal.
Method And Apparatus For Removal Of Selenium From Solution
US Patent:
5322600, Jun 21, 1994
Filed:
Apr 6, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/043537
Inventors:
Robert A. Spitz - Holbrook MA
Mark Bricker - Kutztown PA
Mark Bricker - Kutztown PA
Assignee:
Pioneer Auto Parts & Service Co., Inc. - Yeadon PA
International Classification:
C02F 146, H05F 300, C01B 1310
US Classification:
204151
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improved method and apparatus for removing dissolved selenium from a wastewater solution. The apparatus treats heated selenium containing solution in a single, flow-through operation by employing both the anode chamber and cathode chamber of an electrolytic cell and a series of sub-micron filters. In operation, the present invention has proven to be very effective in treating selenium containing solution to meet or better the government toxicity characteristic specifications of. ltoreq. 1 ppm.
