Zirconium phosphate particles are synthesized by providing a solution of zirconium oxychloride in an aqueous solvent, adding at least one low molecular weight, oxygen containing, monofunctional, organic additive to the solution, and combining this solution with heated phosphoric acid or a phosphoric acid salt to obtain zirconium phosphate particles by sol gel precipitation.
Abstract:
A method of removing fines from a hydrocarbon-containing fluid can include preparing a bed media of particulate earthen material (12). The hydrocarbon-containing fluid having fines therein can be passed through the bed media (12) at a flow rate such that a portion of the fines are retained in the bed media (12) to form a filtered hydrocarbon-containing fluid. The flow rate is sufficient to maintain a wetting film of the hydrocarbon-containing fluid across at least a majority portion of the particulate earthen material which is contacted by the hydrocarbon-containing fluid. The filtered hydrocarbon-containing fluid can be recovered from the bed media (12) via a suitable outlet (16) having substantially reduced or eliminated fines content.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a filtration device 1 comprising at least one active layer 2 and at least one antimicrobial composite 3. The invention further concerns a method for producing a filtration device and filter systems comprising at least two substrates or components. The filtration device 1 may comprise two substrates, substrate A being provided with a chemically functionalized graphene or graphene oxide layer (active layer 2) and substrate B being coated with an antimicrobial composite 3 comprising silver and ruthenium ("AGXX"). The active layer 2 comprises graphene or graphene oxide functionalized by ionic groups so that it can attract microorganisms 4 and endotoxins (Step I), which are then captured and bound by the active layer 2 (Step II). The antimicrobial composite 3 produces and releases reactive oxygen species ("ROS") which kill microorganisms present in the surroundings (Step III). As the cell structure of the microorganisms is destroyed during the killing process, the cell debris is at least in part removed from the active layer 2 (Step IV).
