摘要:
A monitoring system (100) for monitoring fluid in a fluid supply vessel (22, 24, 26, 28, 108) during operation including dispensing of fluid from the fluid supply vessel. The monitoring system includes (i) one or more sensors (114, 126) for monitoring a characteristic of the fluid supply vessel or the fluid dispensed therefrom, (ii) a data acquisition module (40, 132, 146) operatively coupled to the one or more sensors to receive monitoring data therefrom and responsively generate an output correlative to the characteristic monitored by the one or more sensors, and (iii) a processor (50, 150) and display (52, 150) operatively coupled with the data acquisition module and arranged to process the output from the data acquisition module and responsively output a graphical representation of fluid in the fluid supply vessel, billing documents, usage reports, and/or resupply requests.

摘要:
A system and method for recovering high value gas from a process stream, material or environment containing same, e.g., xenon by contacting gas from the process stream, material or environment with a carbon adsorbent effective to sorptively capture same, free of or with reduced concentration of fluid species present with the high value gas in the high value gas-containing gas in the process stream, material or environment. Other aspects of the disclosure include a radon detection method and product.

摘要:
A porous carbon composite having porosity that is at least partially filled with material imparting to the composite an enhanced character with respect to characteristics selected from the group consisting of hardness, wear-resistance and toughness, as compared with the nanoporous carbon alone. Porous carbon material is also described as a storage medium for chlorine gas, or as a hydrogen storage medium, e.g., for hydrogen fuel cells.
摘要:
Carbonaceous materials are described, having utility for fluid storage/dispensing. The carbonaceous material in one implementation is a nanoporous carbon composite having porosity that is at least partially filled with material imparting to the composite an enhanced character. Another implementation utilizes porous carbon material as a storage medium for chlorine gas. A further implementation utilizes porous carbon material as a hydrogen storage mediu e g, for hydrogen fuel cells. In another implementation, porous carbon material is employed as a sorbent medium in a fluid storage and dispensing system, in an arrangement of multiple porous carbon articles, and positional stabilization structure is employed to restrain the arrangement against movement. An arrangement in which carbon adsorbent is desorbed of residual fluid by resistive and/or inductive heating of the adsorbent is described.
摘要:
An adsorption-desorption apparatus (102), and process for storage and dispensing of a gas, e.g., hydride and halide gases, and organometallic Group V compounds, which is selectively dispensed by pressure differential desorption of the sorbate gas from the sorbent material. The sorbent material is preferably a material which is devoid of concentration of trace components such as water, metals and oxidic transition metal species which would significantly decompose the sorbate gas in apparatus (102).
摘要:
Carbonaceous materials are described, having utility for fluid storage/dispensing and desulfurization applications. The carbonaceous material in one implementation is a nanoporous carbon composite having porosity that is at least partially filled with material imparting to the composite an enhanced character with respect to characteristics selected from the group consisting of hardness, wear-resistance and toughness, as compared with the nanoporous carbon alone. Another implementation utilizes porous carbon material as a storage medium for chlorine gas. A further implementation utilizes porous carbon material as a hydrogen storage medium, e.g., for hydrogen fuel cells. In another implementation, porous carbon material is employed as a sorbent medium in a fluid storage and dispensing system, in an arrangement of multiple porous carbon articles, and positional stabilization structure is employed to restrain the arrangement against movement. Infrared emitter devices are described, which utilize carbon adsorbent to store silane for reaction with oxygen in a controlled manner. An arrangement in which carbon adsorbent is desorbed of residual fluid by resistive and/or inductive heating of the adsorbent is described. Also described is a method of increasing the loading capacity of a porous carbon adsorbent, by contacting of the carbon adsorbent with a swelling agent, followed by contacting of the carbon adsorbent with a pressurized gaseous penetration agent, and by removal of the swelling agent and penetration agent.
摘要:
Containment packages (10) having utility for transport of hazardous gases and security systems for controlling access to packages, e.g., hazardous gas containment packages (20). In a specific implementation, a containment package includes an overpack (11) for improving the safety and security of gas-containment vessels during transportation, e.g., air shipment, in which the overpack is pressurized by a protective gas at pressure in excess of the pressure in the gas- containment vessels, and a global positioning system (GPS) coordinated programmable lock and key system (30) is integrated with the containment package for controlled access to the gas- containment vessels only when the GPS component indicates that the containment package is at a specific geographic location.
