The rights to several of the patents were sold to companies such as Texaco and Shell Oil. The following is a partial listing of Frank’s publications: “Entrainment in Plate Columns” “Graphical solution of problems in multicomponent fractionation” “Nomographs for Enthalpies of Pure Hydrocarbons and Their Mixtures” “Two-Component Equilibrium Curves for MuIticomponent Fractionation” “Representation of Equilibrium Constant Data” The following are some of Frank’s patents that I found: “PROCESS FOR PRODUCING OXYGEN BY LIQUEFACTION OF AIR IN WHICH PORTION OF AIR IS EXPANDED TO SUPPLY REFRIGERATION WITHOUT LOSS OF THE OXYGEN CONTENT OF THE EXPANDED AIR” "Hydrocarbon-Conversion Process” “Method and Apparatus for Synthesizing Hydrocarbons” “Process for synthesizing Hydrocarbons” "Synthesis Gas" “Method for Producing Synthesized Gas” “Method and apparatus for producing synthesis gas” “Method for reducing ores and producing synthesis gas” “Method of converting heavy hydrocarbons into low-boiling hydrocarbons” “Process of producing oxygen” (1951) “Processes of producing oxygen” (1955) Frank passed away in NYC on April 16th, 2005 at the age of 94.
