Attrition resistant hardened zeolite materials for air filtration media

Номер: US20120118160A1
Принадлежит: JM Huber Corp

Environmental control in air handling systems that are required to provide highly effective filtration of noxious gases particularly within filter canisters that are ultrasonically welded enclosures is provided. In one embodiment, a filtration system utilizes a novel zeolite material that has been hardened to withstand ultrasonic welding conditions in order to reduce the propensity of such a material to destabilize and/or dust. Such a hardened zeolite thus enables for trapping and removal of certain undesirable gases (such as ammonia, ethylene oxide, formaldehyde, and nitrous oxide, as examples) from an enclosed environment, particularly in combination with metal-doped silica gel materials. Such a hardened zeolite is acidic in nature and not reacted with any salts or like substances and, as it remains in a hardened state upon inclusion within a welded filter device, the filter medium itself permits proper throughput with little to no dusting, thereby providing proper utilization and reliability for such a gas removal purpose. Methods of using and the application within specific filter apparatuses are also encompassed within this invention.

Catalytic adsorbents obtained from municipal sludges, industrial sludges, compost and tobacco waste and process for their production

Номер: US20130102456A1
Автор: Teresa J. Bandosz

Industrial waste derived adsorbents were obtained by pyrolysis of sewage sludge, metal sludge, waste oil sludge and tobacco waste in some combination. The materials were used as media to remove hydrogen sulfide at room temperature in the presence of moisture. The initial and exhausted adsorbents after the breakthrough tests were characterized using sorption of nitrogen, thermal analysis, XRD, ICP, and surface pH measurements. Mixing tobacco and sludges result in a strong synergy enhancing the catalytic properties of adsorbents. During pyrolysis new mineral phases are formed as a result of solid state reaction between the components of the sludges. High temperature of pyrolysis is beneficial for the adsorbents due to the enhanced activation of carbonaceous phase and chemical stabilization of inorganic phase. Samples obtained at low temperature are sensitive to water, which deactivates their catalytic centers.
