Abstract:
In one embodiment, the invention is to an ion exchange resin composition comprising a metal-functionalized exchange resin comprising from 3 % to 94 % metal-functionalized active sites; and a non-metal-functionalized exchange resin comprising non-metal-functionalized active sites.
Abstract:
A detachable module for optionally recharging sorbent materials, including zirconium phosphate, with an optional bypass and conduits for a sorbent cartridge. The sorbent cartridge can have one or more modules contained therein having connectors connecting each of the modules. One or more of the modules can be reusable and the sorbent materials therein recharged.
Abstract:
The present invention generally relates to filtration media for treating fluids, particularly water. In one aspect, the invention relates to the filtration media coated with nano-sized, zero-valent metals. In another aspect, this invention relates to the processes for making such nano-sized, zero-valent metal-coated filtration media. In yet another aspect, the invention relates to removing microbiological impurities such as microbial pathogens from water by treating the water with filtration media that include nano-sized zero-valent metals. In another aspect, the invention relates to a device comprising such nano-sized, zero-valent metal-coated filtration media for treating water.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods of separating a catalyst from a product mixture. Methods of recovering a catalyst from an epoxidized vegetable oil product mixture are further disclosed.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method and a device for converting a preferably weak acid ion-exchange material from the H form into the Ca form, according to which the ion-exchange material is brought into contact with an aqueous, preferably saturated, Ca(OH)2 (calcium hydroxide) solution.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for an integrated acid regeneration of ion exchange resins are disclosed for use in cleaning applications. Acid resins designed for use in a variety of cleaning application using a treated, softened, acidic water source are disclosed. Various methods of using the softened acidic water generated by acid regenerate-able ion exchange resins within a cleaning application, e.g. ware wash machine, are disclosed to beneficially reduce spotting, filming and scale buildup on treated surfaces, reduce and/or eliminate the need for polymers, threshold reagents and/or rinse aids, and using protons generated in the acidic water effluent for triggering events useful in various cleaning applications.
