Title: Innovations of Nobuhiro Ogawa
Introduction
Nobuhiro Ogawa is a prominent inventor based in Ichikawa, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of zeolite technology, holding a total of five patents. His work focuses on the development of heat-resistant low-silica zeolites and their applications in various industrial processes.
Latest Patents
Ogawa's latest patents include a heat-resistant low-silica zeolite and a process for its production. This innovative zeolite contains silicon and aluminum in a molar ratio of SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ranging from 1.9 to 2.1. It features sodium and/or potassium as metal cations and contains low-silica faujasite type zeolite at a content of not lower than 88%. The thermal decomposition temperature of this zeolite ranges from 870°C to 900°C in the air. The production process involves mixing a solution containing an aluminate with another solution containing a silicate, allowing the mixture to gel, and aging the gel at temperatures from 0°C to 60°C. This results in a slurry with a specific surface area of not less than 10 m²/g. Additionally, Ogawa has developed a crystalline zeolite X adsorbent for gas separation, which is used for the recovery of oxygen from air through a pressure swing adsorption method.
