| 4735703 | Method of increasing the concentration of straight chain paraffin material Concentrations of straight chain material are material are increased by treating a thermal-cracked oil distillate boiling in the range of 120° to 290° C. and containing aliphatic olefins, at a temperature of 0° to 330° C. in liquid phase in the presen... | 04/05/1988 |
| 4504376 | Urea dewaxing of naphthene oils In an improved urea dewaxing process a urea/alcohol slurry chilled to 60° F. to 65° F. is added to a naphthenic distillate chilled to 60° F. to 65° F. to produce a refrigerator oil with improved low temperature properties.... | 03/12/1985 |
| 4259169 | Process for the separation of n-paraffins from hydrocarbon oils A process for the separation of n-paraffins from hydrocarbon by means of solid urea wherein the formation of the adduct of n-paraffins with urea is carried out in a fluidized bed.... | 03/31/1981 |
| 4231960 | Process for the purification of urea solutions containing biuret and the like Disclosed is a process and apparatus for purifying and regenerating urea solutions which have been contaminated with biuret and triuret and the like during the use of the urea solutions such as in dewaxing processes. The contaminated urea solution is firs... | 11/04/1980 |
