A material for removing a contaminant, a filter for removing a contaminant including the material, and a device for removing a contaminant including the filter, the material including an adsorption material for adsorption of a contaminant and a decomposition material for decomposition of a contaminant, wherein the adsorption material and the decomposition material are complexed with each other, and a contaminant decomposition onset temperature of the decomposition material is equal to or lower than a contaminant desorption onset temperature of the adsorption material.

An air purification device includes a reactor having a hollow shape and extending in one direction, a discharge plasma generator comprising a first electrode disposed on an outer wall of the reactor and a second electrode disposed inside the reactor, where the discharge plasma generator is configured to generate a discharge plasma in a discharge region, a plurality of dielectric particles disposed on a packed-bed of the reactor, a liquid supplier which supplies a liquid into the reactor, and a liquid recoverer which recovers the liquid discharged from the reactor.

Processes and apparatus for analyzing fluid properties of a stream are described. The processes utilize a simulated moving bed system and a rotary valve. The processes involve sending a portion of the pump-around stream to a side chamber where the moisture content of the adsorbent in the side chamber or one or more fluid properties of the stream or both are measured using an analyzer specific to each fluid property.

A method of recovering paraxylene in a pressure swing adsorption unit with varying hydrogen purge pressures. The pressure swing adsorption zone is adapted to adsorb and desorb paraxylene based on the cycling of partial pressure in the zone. A first hydrogen purge is fed concurrent to the feed. A second hydrogen purge is countercurrent to the feed.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a photocatalytic filter for air purification. The present manufacturing method comprises the steps of: oxidizing a titanium metal to obtain a nanostructured titanium dioxide (TiO2); adding the nanostructured titanium dioxide to an acidic fluorine-containing solution to allow a reaction to occur therebetween for a predetermined period of time; and, after treatment in the acidic fluorine-containing solution, performing heat treatment on the nanostructured titanium dioxide.

A method of recovering paraxylene in a pressure swing adsorption unit with varying hydrogen purge pressures. The pressure swing adsorption zone is adapted to adsorb and desorb paraxylene based on the cycling of partial pressure in the zone. A first hydrogen purge is fed concurrent to the feed. A second hydrogen purge is countercurrent to the feed.

A method of recovering paraxyiene in a pressure swing adsorption unit with varying hydrogen purge pressures. The pressure swing adsorption zone is adapted to adsorb and desorb paraxyiene based on the cycling of partial pressure in the zone. A first hydrogen purge fed to the zone is within 50 psi of the adsorption pressure of paraxyiene in the zone. A second hydrogen purge fed to the zone is within 50 psi of the desorption pressure of paraxyiene in the zone. The overall amount of hydrogen necessary to operate the pressure swing adsorption zone is reduced and heat may be recovered from the effluent leaving the pressure swing adsorption zone.

The disclosure provides a method for separating components of a gas. A feed gas stream is cooled in a first vessel. The feed gas stream includes methane, water, carbon dioxide, and Natural Gas Liquids. The feed gas stream is cooled in a first vessel. A portion of the water condenses to form a primary liquid stream, resulting in a first depleted gas stream, which is cooled in a second vessel. A portion of the NGLs condense to form a secondary liquid stream, resulting in a second depleted gas stream, which is cooled in a condensing exchanger. A first portion of the methane condenses to form a liquid methane stream, resulting in a third depleted gas stream, which is cooled in a third vessel. A portion of the carbon dioxide condenses, desublimates, or condenses and desublimates as a final product stream, also resulting in a fourth depleted gas stream.

A helmet includes a helmet body and a gas detection and purification device. The gas detection and purification device in includes a body, a purification module, a gas-guiding unit, a gas detection module, and a power module. The gas detection module calculates the gas detection data obtained by the gas detection module so as to control the gas-guiding unit to start or stop operation based on the gas detection data. When the gas-guiding unit is in operation, the gas-guiding unit guides the gas into the body and to pass through the purification module for being filtered and purified to become a purified gas, and the gas-guiding unit discharges the purified gas out of the body to the nose portion, or the mouth portion, or both the nose portion and the mouth portion of the wearer for providing the wearer with the purified gas to breath.

A cleaning device includes a housing having a first end defining an inlet and an opposing second end defining an outlet. The housing defines an internal cavity. The housing has a first portion, a second portion, and an intermediate portion. The first portion defines a first chamber of the internal cavity that is connected to the inlet. The first portion has a first width. The second portion defines a second chamber of the internal cavity that is connected to the outlet. The second portion has a second width greater than the first width. The intermediate portion extends between the first portion and the second portion. The intermediate portion defines an intermediate chamber. The intermediate portion has a linear profile or a non-linear profile. The cleaning device further includes an air driver positioned within the first chamber, an ozone generator positioned within the intermediate portion, and a catalyst positioned within the second chamber.
