A process and a plant for the thermal abatement of foul air containing malodorous substances. A flow of foul air containing malodorous substances as combustive air is fed into the combustion chamber of a unit for production and recovery of energy, and a flow of exhaust gas is obtained. The flow of exhaust gas is fed into a scrubber for the abatement of polluting substances, whereby the scrubber uses water for the washing of the flow of exhaust gas, producing a flow of low-temperature purified gas and a heated washing liquid. The heated washing liquid is conveyed to at least one heating jacket of a storage tank for the biological treatment of sewage of the aforementioned purification plant.

The present invention provides an exhaust gas purification system. In the exhaust gas purification system, a shower nozzle 20 disperses liquid toward exhaust gas 11 from an upper portion of the exhaust gas 11. The dispersed liquid is mixed with the exhaust gas 11 and thereafter, the liquid accumulates in a tank 30, and odor and oil content are dissolved by action of microorganism included in the liquid in the tank 30. The shower nozzle 20 is connected to an opening 24 horizontally provided in a nozzle pipe 23 connected to a liquid-supply pipe conduit 22. The exhaust gas purification system includes a nozzle 20N directed to a downward dispersing direction of the liquid. The nozzle 20N is placed in the nozzle pipe 23 such that a lower end 20L of the nozzle 20N is located higher than a bottom 25 of an inner wall of a pipe conduit of the nozzle pipe 23. According to this, exhaust gas including odor and oil content is purified.

A system for improving an air-quality of a given space serviced by an exit register of an AC system including a base frame device that is configured to engage the exit register, a metal base frame section for engaging the base frame device with a perimeter of the exit register. A register cover device that is configured to magnetically engage the base frame device. The register cover device having a plurality of alternating open space portions, a plurality of air diverting fin segments, and a magnet holder implement. The magnet holder implement includes at least four magnet holders that are disposed on each end corner portion of the register cover device. At least four height adjustable magnets are disposed on each of the magnet holders, wherein each of the height adjustable magnets is configured to magnetically engage the register cover device with the base frame device.

A single-stage or multi-stage biological odor control treatment system for the removal of target vapor compounds from a contaminated air stream consisting of a first stage (onsite non-potable water treatment) where raw collection system non-potable water is extracted from the sewer collection system, screened and sprayed over a media bed where it is treated to secondary effluent water quality and is collected in a tank. The onsite non-potable water treatment system effluent is then pumped to the biological odor control system. This onsite non-potable water treatment system effluent is used for irrigating either a single media bed, or multiple media beds, which require continuous moisture and a source of nutrients. The microorganisms use the odorous compounds in the foul air stream as a food source. Treated air is then discharged to the atmosphere. The odor control treatment system drain water is then returned into the source containment collection point.

Systems and methods that utilize both UVA and UVC lamps to clean and disinfect a cabin filter of a vehicle, thereby preventing the cabin filter from becoming fouled for an extended period of time. By performing both gas filtration and cabin filter disinfection functions, these systems and methods mitigate: (1) the pressure drop (or flow reduction) experienced; (2) the smell breakthrough when the gas adsorbent becomes saturated; and (3) the presence of microbial growth. This is accomplished by the sequential application of UVC and UVA radiation to the cabin filter, with the UVC radiation being applied for a period of time upon vehicle startup to neutralize bacteria and fungus present in the cabin filter and the UVA radiation subsequently being applied continuously to filter the gas flowing through the cabin filter. A photocatalyst may be added to the cabin filter itself to enhance disinfection and gas filtration.

Puncture elements and methods for using the same are disclosed. The puncture elements according to the disclosed concept include a cutting edge or a sharp and are composed of a mineral loaded polymer. The minerals of the mineral loaded polymer include an active agent, such as a desiccant. Optionally, the puncture elements are used to puncture a cover (e.g., foil seal) of a package.

The present invention provides an air filter comprising a polymer foam and an adsorbent material wherein said polymer foam comprises metal particles.

A smart multi-modal vehicular air filtration management system including a first filter element and a second filter element disposed in a fresh air housing, wherein the fresh air housing has an inlet and an outlet. Additionally, a third filter element is provided which is disposed in a cabin housing, the cabin housing having one or more inlet. A fluid channel arranged between the fresh air and cabin housing. Finally, a diverter is included which is disposed near an outlet of the fresh air housing, wherein the diverter is configured to cause air to flow through the fresh air housing selectively through one or both of the first filter element and the second filter element.

The invention relates to a biofilter for biologically cleaning a waste gas stream containing contaminants, having at least one filter module through which the waste gas stream is to flow. The filter module has at least one filter layer containing an organic filter material, and the at least one filter layer being supported by at least one grating structure which is in particular oriented at least substantially horizontally. According to the invention, so that the biofilter can be operated cost-effectively, with low effort and with a high filtering efficiency over the longest possible period, the at least one grating structure formed by elongate grating elements which are arranged at least substantially crosswise and are in particular oriented at least substantially horizontally.
