An absorbent composition having a bismuth material on a support containing at least one of a metal oxide, a metalloid oxide or an activated carbon and methods of making and using the same. The adsorbent composition is usful for adsorbing arsine from a fluid stream.

Methods and devices for powdered sorbent regeneration of biologic fluids are disclosed. The present invention includes three novel methods, which may be used singly or in any combination, for constraining or immobilizing powders so that they can be perfused with a biological fluid or dialysate: a porous carbon block filter, a filtration bed of very fine powder, and a cone-shaped reactor.

Provided are methods of using MXene compositions to selectively adsorb analytes such as toxic industrial chemicals, opioids, and nerve agents. Also provided are MXene compositions configured to effect selective adsorption of analytes.

The present disclosure provides adsorbent compositions of carbon-containing material and nitrogen that are co-doped with a metal, such as magnesium or calcium. The disclosure also provides methods of adsorbing phosphate, as well as beneficial end products following the process of adsorption.

Carbonaceous material that is activated to form precursor activated carbon is further enhanced by doping with copper, iron, and nitrogen and calcining. The carbonaceous material includes those obtained from coal, wood, or coconut shells. Methods of doping the activated carbon are described. The described treatment processes result in a sorbent material that has excellent performance in removing chloramine and similar compounds from fluids such as water that is intended for drinking.

Carbonaceous material that is activated to form precursor activated carbon is further enhanced by doping with copper and nitrogen and calcining. The resultant sorbent material has excellent catalytic properties which are useful in the field of fluid purification.

Carbonaceous material that is activated to form precursor activated carbon is further enhanced by doping with iron and nitrogen and calcining. The resultant sorbent material has excellent catalytic properties which are useful in the field of fluid purification. The further enhancement can be performed in a single stage process or a dual stage process. The carbonaceous material includes those obtained from coal, wood, or coconut shells. The described treatment processes result in a sorbent material that has excellent performance in removing chloramine and similar compounds from fluids such as water that is intended for drinking.

The invention relates to a corrosion-resistant, reactive adsorbent which is made up of element iron on a carbon carrier plus sulfur and additional phosphorus as well as a method for producing this reactive adsorbent and use thereof for removal of reductively degradable pollutants in contaminated groundwater and wastewater.

Carbon nitride materials and method of making said carbon nitride materials is described. The carbon nitride materials can be a three dimensional C.sub.3N.sub.5 3-amino-1,2,4,-triazole and urea based mesoporous carbon nitride matrix having an atomic carbon to nitrogen ratio of 0.55 to 0.8 and basic nitrogen containing groups of between 0.15 to 0.25 mmol per gram.

An adsorbent composition having a bismuth material on a support containing at least one of a metal oxide, a metalloid oxide or an activated carbon and methods of making and using the same. The adsorbent composition is useful for adsorbing arsine from a fluid stream.
