Sorry I don't know if have been clear that I was thinking to make two ocaml process communicate 
together one using Async and the other Lwt. The use case for example, is to write a job server with 
Async and to make a web interface for it using ocsigen (Lwt); so the webserver (Lwt) would connect 
to the job server (Async) using the rpc protocol defined by Async_rpc_kernel.

Does you answer is applicable to this use case?

Thank you already for this answer.

Best,
