The present invention relates to the field of air cleaning, and specifically discloses an air freshener composition. The air freshener composition comprises component A and component B, wherein a weight ratio of the component A to the component B is 1:0.5-3; the component A comprises, in parts by weight, 10-30 parts by weight of an active agent; 6-15 parts by weight of a carrier; 1-4 parts by weight of a pH regulator; and 0.01-0.2 part by weight of an antioxidant; the component B is a plant extract solution, wherein the plant extract solution comprises at least, in parts by weight: 5-30 parts by weight of an extract of a mixture of Populus nigra var. italica, grapefruit peels and eucalyptus leaves; 0.1-5 parts by weight of Sophora flavescens extract; 1-3 parts by weight of Aloe vera extract; 1-10 parts by weight of fresh orange peel extract; 0.5-3 parts by weight of Nandina domestica extract; 0.5-10 parts by weight of Eucalyptus robusta Smith extract; 1-8 parts by weight of Robinia pseudoacacia L. extract; 1-5 parts by weight of Chrysanthemum morifolium extract; and 0.1-2 parts by weight of artemisinin.

The invention provides a method for the capture of at least one acid gas in a composition, the release of said gas from said composition and the subsequent regeneration of said composition for re-use. The method comprises the step of capturing an acid gas by contacting said acid gas with a capture composition comprising at least one salt of a carboxylic acid dissolved in a solvent system consisting substantially of water.

Slurries and methods of making slurries for modifying and extending relative humidity control ranges. The slurries may include a saturated aqueous salt and one or more other reagents selected to provide a controlled modifiable narrow range of relative humidity. The saturated aqueous salt may be one or more of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, potassium citrate, sodium formate, and/or magnesium chloride, and the one or more other reagents may be one or more of a lactate salt, glycerol, and/or an acetate salt, for example.

To provide an aldehyde scavenger and a method for removing aldehydes by using the same, for quickly and continuously capturing aldehydes. An aldehyde scavenger comprising at least one O-substituted hydroxylamine or at least one chemically acceptable salt thereof, is used against an aldehyde generation source.

A filtration device for an air purification appliance includes a first filtering cartridge structure containing a classic absorbent or adsorbent material selected from activated carbon or zeolite and a second, different filtering cartridge structure holding a filtering medium consisting of a specific adsorbent material which is porous and functionalized with at least one probe molecule in such a way as to trap aldehyde-type chemical contaminants.

Generally, the present invention relates to the selective removal of divalent sulfur oxyanions (e.g., sulfate) from an aqueous solvent using an anion exchange resin. More particularly, this invention relates to regenerative processes for the selective removal and recovery of sulfur dioxide from a source gas using an aqueous absorption medium in which an anion exchange resin is used to selectively remove divalent sulfur oxyanion impurities accumulating in the recirculating aqueous absorption medium.

The invention relates to a process for dehumidifying a moist gas mixture. The invention further relates to an apparatus for dehumidifying a moist gas mixture and to the use of said apparatus in the process according to the invention.

A method for forming an integrated composite comprises providing a three-dimensional substrate having at least one channel; coating the substrate with a phenolic resin, wherein coating comprises dispersing the phenolic resin on the substrate, impregnating the phenolic resin in the substrate or a combination of both; curing the substrate and the phenolic resin; heating the cured substrate and cured phenolic resin to a temperature in a range of about 600? C. to about 1100? C. in an inert environment thereby pyrolyzing the phenolic resin, forming a conductive carbon network on, in, or both on and in the substrate; and coating a support material on, in, or both on and in the substrate to form an integrated composite.

Sulfide scavengers useful to reduce sulfide concentration in fluid streams and methods of using these scavengers. The scavengers comprise oil soluble reaction products of formaldehyde/N-substituted hydroxylamines and can be used to reduce, for example, H.sub.2S content in viscous hydrocarbon oil streams.
