A system for gas adsorbate capture has an adsorption reactor(s) configured for receiving an adsorbate gas flow. A egeneration reactor(s) is configured for receiving a regenerative fluid flow. A plurality of individual sorbent cells are in a generally continuous cycle between the adsorption reactor and the regeneration reactor. A group of the individual sorbent cells may form an adsorption moving bed in the adsorption reactor to capture the adsorbate from the gas flow.

Systems including a moisture pump for removing moisture from an inside environment to an outside environment. The moisture pump includes a housing defining a chamber with a heater, a heat spreader, and a desiccant for selectively adsorbing water vapor in the heating chamber when the heater is off and desorbing water vapor into the heating chamber when the heater is on. A valve assembly is also maintained by the housing transitionable between an adsorption position and desorption position. The adsorption position allows water vapor to be selectively transmitted into the heating chamber from the inside environment. The desorption position allows water vapor to be transmitted from the heating chamber for transmission into the outside environment. The adsorption and desorption ports can have asymmetric adsorption and desorption areas.

An adsorptive gas separation apparatus and method is disclosed. An adsorbent structure may include a first adsorbent layer having at least a first adsorbent material, a second adsorbent layer including at least a second adsorbent material, and a barrier layer, where the barrier layer is interposed between the first adsorbent layer and the second adsorbent layer. A parallel passage contactor including a plurality of adsorbent structures each comprising a barrier layer, and arranged to form first and second fluid passages is also disclosed. An adsorption process for separating at least a first component from a multi-component fluid stream using the adsorbent structure is also provided.

A ventilator includes an enclosure, a tubing configured to receive an input gas, and a flow outlet airline in fluid communication with the tubing. The flow outlet airline includes an airline outlet. The ventilator further includes a breath detection airline including an airline inlet. The airline inlet is separated from the airline outlet of the flow outline airline. The ventilator further includes a pressure sensor in direct fluid communication with the breath detection airline. The ventilator includes a controller in electronic communication with the pressure sensor and an internal oxygen concentrator in fluid communication with the tubing. The internal oxygen concentrator is entirely disposed inside the enclosure.

A resin includes a functionalized aminopolymer having amine sites for capturing carbon dioxide molecules, where each aminopolymer molecule has at least one functional group amenable to crosslinking, a porogen, and a crosslinking initiator. A product includes an aminopolymer material formed into a self-supporting structure, the aminopolymer material including crosslinked aminopolymers having amine sites for the capture of carbon dioxide molecules.

A layered sorbent material sheet includes a substrate sheet and a spacer sheet. The spacer sheet defines a plurality of spaced apart sorbent material strips. The sheets may be layered or rolled together. Multiple layers of alternating sheets are also disclosed. In some embodiments, the sorbent material sheets are arranged in a stacked configuration.

A monolithic open cell structure apparatus including an open cell structure housing including a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a first opening located at the first side, and a second opening located opposite the first opening at a second side. The monolithic open cell structure apparatus also including a filtration portion extending from the first side to the second side within the open cell structure housing. The monolithic open cell structure apparatus further including a retaining partition that at least partially encloses the filtration portion within the open cell structure housing. The monolithic open cell structure apparatus is a single piece including a unitary structure.

The present disclosure relates to hydrocarbon emission control systems. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to substrates coated with hydrocarbon adsorptive coating compositions, air intake systems, and evaporative emission control systems for controlling evaporative emissions of hydrocarbons from motor vehicle engines and fuel systems.

A method of making a composite material for dehydration of gases includes the steps of grinding date palm wood fibers to produce a fiber powder, immersing the fiber powder in an alkali solution, filtering fiber powder from the alkali solution to obtain treated fiber powder, drying the treated fiber powder, mixing the dried treated fiber powder with melted polylactic acid to form a composite material, extruding the composite material, and molding and pressing the extruded composite material. The resultant composite material may then be used to dehydrate gas by contacting the gas with the composite material such that water from the gas is adsorbed onto the surface of the composite material.

There is provided an air-treatment device including an airflow generator for generating an airflow, an adsorbent material for adsorbing one or more airborne contaminants, the adsorbent material being arranged such that at least a portion of the airflow passes through the adsorbent material, a heater arranged to heat a portion of the adsorbent material to desorb adsorbed contaminants, and a photocatalytic reactor arranged to receive air containing the contaminants desorbed from the heated portion of adsorbent material. The photocatalytic reactor includes a photo-catalyst for photocatalytic degradation of one or more of the contaminants, and one or more light sources for illuminating the photo-catalyst to facilitate photocatalytic degradation. The air-treatment device is arranged such that at least a portion of the airflow that has not passed through the heated portion of the adsorbent material contacts the one or more light sources.
