Abstract:
A method and composition for the removal of contaminants in a gas stream used in the contamination sensitive processes of photolithography and metrology are described. The synergistic effect of a combination of an electropositive metal component, a high silica zeolite, and a late transition metal compound effects removal or reduction of the contaminates in the gas which interfere with light transmittance to the ppb or ppt levels necessary for the gas to be suitable for these uses. The removal of neutral polar molecules, neutral polar aprotic molecules, protic and aprotic alkaline molecules, acidic polar species, and neutral non-polar aprotic molecules is accomplished with the claimed composition. Depending on the type of contaminant, the composition components are each varied from 10 to 80 parts by volume, with the total composition limited to 100 parts by volume.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a unit suitable for the through-flow of a fluid medium at least partially filled with an adsorbent/catalyst in pellet form consisting essentially of iron oxide and/or iron oxyhydroxides, solidified with oxides and/or (oxy)hydroxides of the elements Al, Mg and Ti, the pellets or granules based on iron oxides and/or iron oxyhydroxides and iron(III) hydroxide for the absorbent/catalyst, and processes for their production and their use.
Abstract:
A water absorber for absorbing and removing water remaining on floors resulting from leakage or flooding, and comprising a water-permeable bag-shaped casing made of cotton cloth filled with an antibacterial water-absorbing agent comprised of a modified polymer compound. The water absorber absorbs water to swell. The water absorber is filled with the antibacterial water-absorbing agent, and therefore, even after absorbing water, the water absorber is not under unsanitary conditions such that bacteria propagate. When the water absorber is dried, it regains water-absorbing property and can be reused as a water absorber. The antibacterial water-absorbing agent (modified polymer compound) is produced by subjecting to acid treatment and metal-salt forming treatment a scrap material of typical organic resins, such as an ABS resin, and has a nitrile group, a hydrolysis product of the nitrile group, and an acid group introduced as a substituent in the form of a metal salt.
Abstract:
The present invention is a process for producing an essentially pure carbon monoxide (CO) product and an essentially pure hydrogen product by reforming a hydrocarbon such as methane and steam in the presence of a reforming catalyst to produce a reformate product enriched in CO, carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The reformate is subjected to an integrated series of separation steps and carbon dioxide present in a portion of the waste effluent recovered from such series of spearation steps is shifted to CO in an integrated sorption enhanced reaction (SER) process.
Abstract:
Composite materials useful for removing metal ions from solutions such as aqueous waste streams comprise an inorganic ceramic support such as silica gel that has active hydroxyl groups. The support is reacted with a silane linking compound or with a titanizing agent. A chelating compound, which can be a thiol or an amine, is attached to the silane or to titanium atoms of the titanized surface of the support.
Abstract:
Carbon-clad zirconium oxide particles are disclosed which are useful in sorbent applications, particularly as packing materials for High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). A method for the preparation of chromatographic support material is also disclosed which utilizes low pressure.
Abstract:
The invention relates to systems and methods for disinfecting, recharging, and conditioning zirconium phosphate in a reusable sorbent module. The systems and methods provide for reuse of a zirconium phosphate sorbent module after dialysis.
