Abstract:
A method of removing hydrogen interstitially dissolved within an object can include: positioning a sorption pad having a contact surface and comprising a sorptive material; urging the contact surface into metallurgical contact with the first target surface while at a treatment temperature that is greater than about 200 degrees Celsius; c) maintaining the metallurgical contact for a treatment period during which the hydrogen migrates from the target object to the sorptive material; and at the conclusion of the treatment period, separating the contact surface from the first target surface and moving the sorption pad and any hydrogen sequestered therein away from the object.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a substrate containing passive NOx adsorption (PNA) materials for treatment of gases, and washcoats for use in preparing such a substrate. Also provided are methods of preparation of the PNA materials, as well as methods of preparation of the substrate containing the PNA materials. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a coated substrate containing PNA materials for PNA systems, useful in the treatment of exhaust gases. Also disclosed are exhaust treatment systems, and vehicles, such as diesel or gasoline vehicles, particularly light-duty diesel or gasoline vehicles, using catalytic converters and exhaust treatment systems using the coated substrates.
Abstract:
A system and method for reducing pollutants in garbage leachate is disclosed. The system comprises multiple modules such as a screening module, a pH adjustment and mixing module, a separator module and a disinfection module operationally connected to each other. The screening module is configured to filter the leachate and the pH adjustment and mixing module is configured to adjust the pH of the filtered leachate to a predefined value. The leachate is mixed with a chemical or metal oxide composition, and the pollutants in the leachate are adsorbed by the chemical composition to provide a purified leachate. The separator module is configured to separate the adsorbed pollutant from the purified leachate. The disinfection module is configured to filter and disinfect the purified leachate to produce purified water. The method implemented using this system for reducing pollutants in a leachate is efficient and economical.

Abstract:
A water treatment composition includes a water soluble film formed into a sealed pouch. The pouch contains a composite of a phosphate removing substance, a polymer flocculant, or an enzyme, or any combination. The phosphate removing substance, the polymer flocculant, and the enzyme are bound to each other within the composite. The pouch is added to a body of water. The pouch dissolves to release the compounds and treat the water.
