| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 5580464 | Resolution of emulsions A method and apparatus for separating the components of an emulsion comprising an electrically conductive component dispersed in a continuous phase of a substantially electrically insulating component, for instance, a water-in-oil emulsion. The method inc... | 12/03/1996 |
| 5411651 | Method for electrostatic liquid/liquid contactor The present invention is a method utilizing a liquid-liquid contactor which employs an electrostatic field to mix an organic phase with an aqueous phase and to coalesce the aqueous phase in order to accomplish extraction of a component present in the aque... | 05/02/1995 |
| 4624763 | Separation of dispersed phase from phase mixture In order to separate dispersed contaminant phase from a phase mixture comprising the contaminant phase dispersed in a continuous background fluid phase (for example a water-in-oil emulsion), net unipolar charge is injected into the emulsion with an electr... | 11/25/1986 |
| 4624764 | Separation of dispersed phase from continuous fluid phase Separation of dispersed phase (e.g., solid, gel, liquid or gas contiminant) from a continuous fluid background phase (liquid or gas) is achieved by injecting free charge into the phase mixture, which both induces an electric field within the mixture and e... | 11/25/1986 |
| 4624765 | Separation of dispersed liquid phase from continuous fluid phase Separation of dispersed liquid contaminant, for example removal of water droplets from oil, is achieved by introducing free charge into the mixture by means of charge injector (1) and discharging the charged mixture through a gas or vapor gap into a separ... | 11/25/1986 |
