A compact lightweight air filtration system is disclosed. The air filtration system includes a hydrophobic particulate/coalescing filter and a cleanable ozone converter housed in a housing with an inlet and an outlet. Air flowing from the inlet to the outlet passes through the particulate/coalescing filter element and then the cleanable ozone converter to remove particulates, aerosols, liquids, and ozone. The air filtration system may comprise a fuel tank inerting system (FTIS) filter assembly. The FTIS filter assembly may include a binderless media (no binder) suitable for use in high temperatures. The FTIS filter assembly includes a catalytic converter configured to adsorb one or more VOCs, such as Toluene, Propylene Glycol (C.sub.3H.sub.8O.sub.2), Pentanoic Acid, Butane (C.sub.4H.sub.10), Formaldehyde (CH.sub.2O), and Carbon Dioxide (CO.sub.2).

In a process for treating a carbon dioxide-rich gas (1) containing water, the treatment by compression and/or washing and/or drying of the gas produces acidified water (W1, W2, W3, W4, W7) which is sent to a cooling circuit (W8, W10).

A food waste disposer including a housing, a container disposed inside the housing and provided to accommodate food waste, an exhaust duct communicating with the container and provided to allow exhaust gas generated in the container to flow therein, a filter device including a catalytic filter part configured to filter the exhaust gas passed through the exhaust duct, and a deodorizing filter part configured to filter the exhaust gas passed through the catalytic filter part and communicating with an outside of the housing, and a condensation chamber configured to remove moisture in the exhaust gas flowing from the exhaust duct into the catalytic filter part of the filter device.

Methods and systems to decarbonize natural gas using sulfur to produce hydrogen and polymers are provided. Sulfur can be introduced in elemental form or as hydrogen sulfide, as may be desired. Decarbonization of natural gas involves introducing natural gas and H.sub.2S to a first reactor to produce first reactor products including CS.sub.2 and H.sub.2. The CS.sub.2 can subsequently be polymerized and the H.sub.2 recovered in a purified form with little or no carbon emissions.

In an embodiment, a method for recovering carbon dioxide comprises introducing a carbon dioxide rich stream to a scrubber comprising a metal hydroxide and allowing the carbon dioxide to react with the metal hydroxide to form a metal carbonate; directing a metal carbonate stream from the scrubber to an electrochemical concentrator and applying a potential to the electrochemical concentrator to form a metal hydroxide stream and a separated carbon dioxide stream; directing the metal hydroxide stream comprising a recovered metal hydroxide and hydrogen to an electrochemical separator and applying a potential to the electrochemical separator to separate the hydrogen forming a hydrogen recycle stream from the recovered metal hydroxide forming a metal hydroxide recycle stream; and directing the separated carbon dioxide stream to a gas liquid separator and separating the separated carbon dioxide stream into a recycled water stream and a concentrated carbon dioxide stream.

An ultraviolet air sterilizer for disinfecting bacterium and virus includes a shell, a sandwich activated carbon cloth filter element, a nanometer titanium dioxide screen filter, an ultraviolet light source, a heat sinking kit, and a fan. The shell includes a shell body and a cover plate. The shell body is provided with an air inlet and an opening. The cover plate is provided with an air outlet. The sandwich activated carbon cloth filter element, the nanometer titanium dioxide screen filter, the heat sinking kit and the fan are arranged sequentially along an air path from the air inlet to the air outlet. The ultraviolet light source is configured for emitting ultraviolet light to the nanometer titanium dioxide screen filter. The air sterilizer has a compact small-sized structure and effectively removes ambient gaseous as well as particulate pollutants and kills micro-organisms harmful to health and well being.

The present invention relates to a biomimetic-hybrid solvent system for simultaneous capture of H.sub.2S and CO.sub.2 from any gaseous composition. The present invention also relates to a process for upgradation of biogas to bio CNG by removing gaseous contaminants, including microbial removal of H.sub.2S, to obtained purified CO.sub.2. The biomimetic-hybrid solvent system contains three components selected from tertiary amine compounds, a functional colloidal fluid, and an enzyme mimic.
