Description
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle Memorial Institute under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy, solicits interest from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. PNNL may also be available to licensee(s) to assist in further research and development of the technology under a sponsored research agreement or CRADA program. THE TECHNOLOGY: This is an improved reclamation process for treating water-oil emulsions derived from producing or processing crude petroleum. The process is useful for processing waste sludges, thus avoiding the complexities and cost of their disposal. The process comprises heating the sludge to a temperature at or above 300 degrees C, and pressurizing the sludge at a pressure above the vapor pressure of water. The emulsion is broken by containing it at temperature and pressure for a period of time sufficient to separate it into three phases. The three phases are then separately withdrawn, preferably without any appreciable reduction of temperature and pressure and at least above a withdrawal temperature of about 300 degrees C and above the vapor pressure of water at the withdrawal temperature. US Pat No 5,100,559, and 4,971,703. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Any company interested in licensing this technology must respond with a letter of interest (may be submitted by e-mail) no later than 90 days from the publication date of this Notice summarizing the company?s business and technical expertise and motivation for pursuing this opportunity. Companies deemed appropriate will be provided with further information on the technology. Such information may require an executed Nondisclosure Agreement. Respondents wishing to enter into negotiations for a commercial license will be required to submit a business plan for the commercialization of the technology prior to licensee(s) selection and negotiations. Please send letters of interest to the attention of the POC identified within this Notice.
