Abstract:
A process for eliminating organic oxygen-containing molecules such as alcohols and organic present in an organic or gaseous effluent is characterized in that the elimination is carried out by adsorbing said organic oxygen-containing molecules onto alumina agglomerates.
Abstract:
Aerogels having a monolayer coating are described. The aerogel and a monolayer forming precursor are provided in a supercritical fluid, whereupon the aerogel and the monolayer forming precursor are reacted in said supercritical fluid to form a covalent bond between the aerogel and the monolayer forming precursor. Suitable aerogels are ceramic oxides such as silica, alumina, aluminosilicate, and combinations thereof. Suitable monolayer forming precursors include alkyl silanes, chlorosilanes, boranes, chloroboranes, germanes, and combinations thereof. The method may also include providing a surface preparation agent such as water, or hydroetching an aerogel to enhance the coating of the monolayer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of arsenic free water and an apparatus therefor. The present invention also relates to a porous ceramic useful for pressure filtration in order to produce arsenic free water. The present invention particularly relates to a process for preparing arsenic free (
Abstract:
A DNA hybrid which comprises a porous oxide matrix and DNA immobilized thereon, and is useful for environmental clean-up, where the hybrid is prepared by removing a dispersion medium from a dispersion of colloidal oxide and DNA.
Abstract:
An adsorption-desorption material having a high carbon dioxide adsorption-desorption capability, a low pressure loss, a high thermal diffusion efficiency, and high resistance to repeated stresses, e.g., expansion and shrinkage, as well as an adsorption-desorption apparatus including the adsorption-desorption material, is provided. The adsorbent is composed of a three-dimensional network skeleton structure or a structure having three-dimensional network voids, the structure constructed by a compound having a carbon dioxide adsorption-desorption capability. The carbon dioxide adsorption-desorption apparatus is provided with this adsorbent.
Abstract:
A sorptive-filtration system for removing at least one of negatively or positively charged ions, complexes or particulates from an aqueous stream. The system includes a) flow formed substantially from at least one of rainfall-runoff or snowmelt-runoff; b) a filter containment communicating with the runoff stream such that at least part of the stream passes through the filter containment; and c) a granular filter media disposed within the filter containment, the filter media having an amphoteric material applied thereto, wherein the amphoteric material comprises a metal selected from at least one of Fe, Al, Mn, or Si.
Abstract:
Chlorite-like phyllosilicate materials are found useful as SOx sorbents. A novel process of sulfur oxide sorption is provided utilizing these layered materials as contact solids. Typical industrial applications include sulfur removal from fluid catalyst cracking process, cold-side combustion gas sulfur abatement and cleaner coal gasification.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to mixtures of various adsorption materials, whose adsorption properties supplement one another in the mixture.
Abstract:
A new adsorbent of a porous mineral oxide material with apatite crystals, preferably hydroxyapatite crystals, in the pores of the mineral oxide material is disclosed. The adsorbent is useful for protein and nucleic acid separations
