Abstract:
The present invention involves the use of nanoporous carbons derived from partially or fully demetalized metal carbides in personal protection equipment for the irreversible absorption/adsorption of both broad and specific targeted gases. These materials have been specifically processed to provide enhanced effective loadings against specific harmful volatile organic compounds.
Abstract:
A method for detection and identification of a chemical using a preconcentrator to collect a sample of the chemical, process said sample of the chemical, and introduce said processed chemical into a chemical analysis instrument for the detection of and identification of the chemical. A system for detecting and identifying a chemical comprising a preconcentrator having at least dual concentrating elements.
Abstract:
In the method for scrubbing a chemical from a medium, wherein the improvement comprises the steps of using a carbide derived carbon to adsorb the chemical which may later be released by heating. The carbide derived carbon may be a powder, a fiber, a solid foam, a mesh, or other solid form. The carbide derived carbon can adsorb a chemical in the gaseous, liquid, particulate, or aerosol phase.
