Abstract: A solar-powered hydrogen production system directly produces hydrogen. The solar-powered hydrogen production system includes at least one concentrator, a hydrogen-rich source, a catalytic layer, and a hydrogen separation membrane. The hydrogen-rich source is positioned to receive focused sunlight collected by the concentrator and is in direct contact with the catalytic layer. The catalytic layer produces hydrogen from the hydrogen-rich source. The hydrogen separation membrane subsequently separates the hydrogen produced at the catalytic layer.

Abstract: The present invention addresses organic pollutant removal from enclosed environments such as a room or within a vehicle. A photocatalytic semiconductor coating located on the interior surface of a window or windshield is illuminated with UV light, thereby dissociating water on the surface thereof to form hydroxyl radicals. These hydroxyl radicals then oxidize organic pollutants adsorbed to the coating.

Abstract: A method of combusting a hydrocarbon fuel includes mixing the fuel with a first air stream to form a fuel/air mixture having an equivalence ratio of greater than 1 and partially oxidizing the fuel by contacting it with an oxidation catalyst to generate a heat of reaction and a partial oxidation product stream. The partial oxidation product stream is mixed with a second air stream and completely combusted in a main combustor at a condition at which appreciable quantities of thermal NOx are not formed to generate an effluent gas stream, thereby generating an effluent gas stream containing decreased amounts of thermal and prompt NOx. A system for combusting a hydrocarbon fuel includes, in combination, means for mixing the fuel with a first air stream, a catalytic oxidation stage containing an oxidation catalyst, means for mixing the partial oxidation product stream with a second air stream, and a main combustor capable of completely combusting the partial oxidation product stream.
