US Patent:

6294584, Sep 25, 2001

Filed:

Jan 29, 1999

Appl. No.:

9/240155

Inventors:

Edmund J. Bockowski - Chalfont PA
Dwight P. Davis - Holland PA

Assignee:

Betzdearborn Inc. - Trevose PA

International Classification:

A01N 3500

US Classification:

514693

Abstract:

The present invention provides for methods for fumigating soil containing deleterious organisms such as nematodes. The methods utilize an effective amount of acrolein over sole demand for acrolein which when added to the soil will control the organisms but will not exhibit phytotoxicity towards the existing or future plant life.

Filed:

Apr 14, 1989

Appl. No.:

7/338017

Inventors:

Edmund J. Bockowski - Furlong PA
Cato R. McDaniel - The Woodlands TX

Assignee:

Betz Laboratories, Inc. - Trevose PA

International Classification:

A01N 3500

US Classification:

514703

Abstract:

This invention relates to the generation of acrolein from an acetal of acrolein via exposure to a sulfonic acid reusable catalytic material. The acrolein acetals have the following general structures; ##STR1## where R may or may not be equal to R' and R/R' is an alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbons; and ##STR2## where R is a cyclic diol derived from ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, pentylene glycol, hexylene glycol, glycerol hexoses or polysaccharides.

Dwight P. Davis - Holland PA

Assignee:

BetzDearborn Inc. - Trevose PA

International Classification:

A01N 3500

US Classification:

514693

Abstract:

The present invention provides for methods for fumigating soil containing deleterious organisms such as nematodes. The methods utilize an effective amount of acrolein which when added to the soil will control the organisms but will not exhibit phytotoxicity towards the existing or future plant life and an effective amount of a detoxification compound such as for example: sulfites, bisulfites, ammonia or ammonium compounds.

Filed:

Jun 2, 1992

Appl. No.:

7/889927

Inventors:

Edmund J. Bockowski - Furlong PA

Assignee:

Betz Laboratories, Inc. - Trevose PA

International Classification:

G01N 2726

US Classification:

204402

Abstract:

A sensor electrode and method for detecting select characteristic in a liquid. The method utilizes filters and adsorbent materials to selectively remove contaminants in the liquid. The improvement comprises back flushing the filters and adsorbent material, once they become saturated, with specific solutions to wash away the select contaminants.
