A stormwater filter includes a receptacle having an open top into which stormwater is permitted to enter the receptacle and flow downwardly therein. A hydroponic garden section having a media bed is supported within the receptacle and in an elevated condition above the bottom of the receptacle so that a water sump compartment is disposed between the hydroponic garden section and the bottom of the receptacle. In addition, a discharge opening is defined within a sidewall of the receptacle in the water sump compartment and adjacent the hydroponic garden section, and a post-filtration flow control orifice is associated with the discharge opening for controlling the filtration flow through the media bed. In addition, a wick is associated with the media bed for drawing water upwardly from the water sump compartment for use by plants growing within the media bed.

The method for producing a nanocellulose support comprises coating a container with surface-treated nanocellulose solution, forming a nanocellulose film by drying the coated nanocellulose solution, and modifying the surface properties of the nanocellulose film by means of electron beam irradiation. According to an embodiment, the production of nanocellulose supports using the drying method allows substrates of various shapes to be coated and has simple processes, thus allowing mass production and production of over-sized supports.

A pool strainer basket insert system and method are contemplated in which a high porosity, coarse fibrous mass is inserted in a pool skimmer basket. Via optimization of the material properties of the fibrous mass and configuration such that approximately 50% of the fibrous mass is located above the waterline and 50% below the water line the problems of the prior art may be solved via the retaining properties of the fibrous mass, enabling insects and small organic matter to be retained and preventing their migration back to the main body of the pool.

A gas detection and purification device can be placed in an in-car space and includes a housing, a purification module, a gas-guiding unit, and a gas detection module. The housing has a gas inlet and a gas outlet. A gas channel is between the gas inlet and the gas outlet. The purification module is disposed in the gas channel to filter the gas guided into the gas channel. The gas-guiding unit is disposed in the gas channel and at one side of the purification module. The gas-guiding unit guides the gas into the device from the gas inlet, guides the gas to pass through the purification module for performing filtering and purifying, and discharges the gas out from the gas outlet. The gas detection module is disposed in the gas channel to detect the gas guided into the housing to obtain gas detection data.

Disclosed are methods, systems, canisters, and other implementations, including a method of filling a filter canister with a particulate filter material to a desired packing density comprises providing a canister having a fill opening through which the particulate filter material is introduced into the canister, introducing the particulate filter material through the fill opening, and subjecting the canister to centrifugal forces for a time until the desired packing density is reached is provided.

Materials which react with (“scavenge”) sulfur compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans, are useful for limiting sulfur-induced corrosion. Surface-modified particles incorporating a hexahydrotriazine moiety are disclosed and used as sulfur scavengers. These surface-modified particles are used a filter media in fixed filter systems and as additives to fluids including sulfur compounds. The hexahydrotriazine moiety can react with sulfur compounds in such a manner as to bind sulfur atoms to the surface-modified particles, thus allowing removal of the sulfur atoms from fluids such as crude oil, natural gas, hydrocarbon combustion exhaust gases, sulfur polluted air and water. The surface-modified particles may, in general, be sized to allow separation of the particles from the process fluid by sedimentation, size-exclusion filtration or the like.
