    Abstract: The invention provides aqueous solutions of (1) the reaction product of anhydrous trimethyl borate with titanium tetrachloride and (2) polyvinyl alcohol, preferably not exceeding about 0.5 weight percent of each. These solutions have a pH of about 1 but when ammonium hydroxide is added the pH may be raised to about 10 without precipitation of titanium or gelation of the polyvinyl alcohol.When the pH of the above solutions is adjusted to between about 2 and about 10, the solutions are photosensitive. When these solutions are in a confined zone, sunlight or actinic radiation in the range between ultraviolet light and the lower wavelengths of the visible spectrum causes oxygen from the air above the solutions to be consumed until it is all gone. Then, reduction of the colorless dissolved Ti(IV) compound to the dark blue Ti(III) state occurs without precipitation of the Ti(III) product or reoxidation to Ti(IV). The blue Ti(III) solution is quickly reoxidized by reexposure to air. Similar photosensitive solutions are formed with polyvinyl alcohol and other Ti(IV) compounds, such as (1) the tetravalent titanium compound conforming substantially to the formula Cl.sub.2 Ti(OR).sub.2 where R is H, CH.sub.3, C.sub.2, H.sub.5, C.sub.3 H.sub.7 or C.sub.4 H.sub.9 ; (2) titanyl sulfate, and (3) titanyl chloride. The polyvinyl alcohol may be replaced by other complexing agents, such as N-hydroxyethylenediaminetriacetic acid, diethanolglycine, glucoheptanoic acid, arabonic acid, glusonic acid, galactonic acid, saccharic acid, mucic acid, and the sodium and ammonium salts of these compounds.

    Abstract: A method of separating isotopes of hydrogen utilizing isotopically selective photodissociation of organic acid is disclosed. Specifically acetic or formic acid containing compounds of deuterated and hydrogenated acid is irradiated by radiation having a wavelength in the infrared spectrum between 9.2 to 10.8 microns to produce deuterium hydroxide and deuterium hydride respectively. Maintaining the acid at an elevated temperature significantly improves the yield of isotope separation.

    Abstract: The instant invention relates to a process for separating a material into two or more parts in each of which the abundances of the isotopes of a given element differ from the abundances of the isotopes of the same material in said material. More particularly, the invention relates to a method for the isotopically selective excitation of gas phase molecules by multiple infrared photon absorption after which more of the excited molecules than nonexcited molecules are converted to a chemically different form which may be separated by means known in the art. This invention is useful for, but not limited to, the separation of the principal isotopes of uranium.

    Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a new improved chemical method for combustible fuel production by converting carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to a carbonate following which the recovered carbonate is combined with hydrogen gas to produce combustible fuels e.g. methane and methanol. The present method provides means for fuel generation and may advantageously use heat and radiation energy derived from nuclear reactors.This application implies certain environmental advantages, in that burning of fuels containing carbon derived only from atmospheric CO.sub.2 would not add to the CO.sub.2 content of the atmosphere. Recycling of lime as CaO or Ca(OH).sub.2 would eliminate the problem of disposing of those materials as encountered by others teaching use of carbonates but not using such a closed cycle.
