RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:7 fevrier 2018....important date.PYR has a bunch of patents granted and pending.
Peter Pascali wrote just recently he has instructed his patent attorney to proceed (he's not going to lie publicly).
Patent lawyers know patents, so I think I'll trust PYR's patent attorney with a successful track record for now.

That’s true if they only want to be protected in Canada, some other countries (not many) have a possible delay up to a couple of months eg China) .
Most countries have about a 30 month time limit, after which anyone in that country can use the PUREVAP system disclosed in the provisional, if no patent application is filed in that country by the deadline. Also, no one can apply for a patent to protect anything disclosed in the provisional after the priority date has passed in any given country, not even the original inventors.
That does not prevent a brand new patent application being filed, that does not include anything from the original application, but the protection only starts from the new application date.
It all becomes public domain information and as such it is prior art.
