Novel methods for pretreating a rare-gas-containing stream exiting an etch chamber followed by recovering the rare gas from the pre-treated, rare-gas containing stream are disclosed. More particularly, the invention relates to the pretreatment and recovery of a rare gas, such as xenon or krypton, from a nitrogen-based exhaust stream with specific gaseous impurities generated during an etch process that is performed as part of a semiconductor fabrication process.

A method of recycling an saturated adsorbent (3) of a filter module (1) of an industrial process plant (15), wherein a first process (17) includes removing the saturated adsorbent (3) from the filter module (1), a fourth process (20) includes washing and reactivating the saturated adsorbent, a fifth process (21) includes drying and packing the reactivated adsorbent in airtight containers, and a seventh process (23) includes replacing the saturated adsorbent by reactivated adsorbent in the filter module (1).

A system for capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide is disclosed, including a track and a plurality of panels moveably coupled to the track, each panel having a sorbent material. The system also includes a harvest house having a sorbent regeneration system and at least one aperture, and a propulsion system coupled to the track and configured to move each panel in a circuit having a collection phase and a release phase. For each panel, the collection phase of the circuit includes the panel moving along the track to expose the sorbent material to an airflow and allow the sorbent material to capture carbon dioxide. For each panel, the release phase of the circuit includes the panel being sufficiently enclosed inside the harvest house that the sorbent regeneration system may operate on the sorbent material to release captured carbon dioxide from the sorbent material and form an enriched gas.

The present description provides low DBL bleed emission performance properties that allows the design of evaporative fuel emission control systems that are simpler and more compact than those possible by prior art by inclusion of a vent-side volume comprising a parallel passage adsorbent such as a carbon honeycomb with narrow channel width and low cell pitch.

A portable pressure swing adsorption method and system for fuel gas conditioning. A fuel gas conditioning system includes a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) system fluidly coupled to a rich gas stream, the PSA system including a plurality of adsorbent beds and configured to condition the rich natural gas stream and produce therefrom a high-quality fuel gas and gaseous separated heavier hydrocarbons, a product end of the adsorbent beds fluidly coupled to a fuel gas line, wherein the high-quality fuel gas is discharged from the product end and supplied to the fuel gas line, and a feed end of the adsorbent beds configured to be fluidly coupled to the rich natural gas stream or a raw natural gas stream, wherein the produced gaseous separated heavier hydrocarbons are recirculated into the rich natural gas stream or the raw natural gas stream.

A canister, mounted in a vehicle with an engine and including one or more chambers, includes adsorbents, an inflow port, an atmosphere port, an outflow port, two or more adjusting portions, and one or more coupling portions. The two or more adjusting portions are elongated members placed in at least one target chamber of one or more chamber togethers, together with corresponding one adsorbent among the adsorbents to the target chamber. The one or more coupling portions couple the two or more adjusting portions to one another. Furthermore, the one or more coupling portions are provided to the two or more adjusting portions at a position distanced from end surfaces of the two or more adjusting portions.

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 radial adsorber can be configured to facilitate utilization of different layers of material. The radial adsorber, system using at least one radial adsorber, and methods of utilizing embodiments of the radial adsorber can help permit improved efficient operation of fluid purification processing while also being configured to minimize, if not fully avoid, being susceptible to the effect of fluidization.

A vehicle includes an engine, at least three wheels including a front wheel and a rear wheel, a fuel tank above the engine, a seat rearward of the fuel tank, a canister positioned lower than the fuel tank, and a vent hose to supply air therethrough into the canister to desorb the adsorbed fuel evaporative emission from the canister. An upstream end of the drain hose is connected to the vent hose. A downstream end of the drain hose is positioned lower than the canister.
