An air filter including a filter support that supports polymeric sorbent particles. The polymeric sorbent is the reaction product of a divinylbenzene/maleic anhydride precursor polymeric material with a nitrogen-containing compound. The air filter may be used for capturing e.g. reactive gases.

A sorbent pouch for use in sorbent dialysis. The sorbent pouch allows for fluid to freely pass into and through the sorbent materials, while keeping the sorbent materials inside the sorbent pouch.

A moisture absorbent for a vehicle lamp includes a first inorganic material, a second inorganic material, alkali metal phosphate, and a polymer wax are included. A composite moisture absorbent structure includes a first moisture absorbent pack including a powder type moisture absorbent and a second moisture absorbent pack including a capsule type moisture absorbent are embedded.

A liquid absorber includes a plurality of small chips. Individual ones of the small chips include a first substrate containing fibers, a second substrate containing fibers, an absorbent resin supported between the first substrate and the second substrate, and an ion exchange resin supported between the first substrate and the second substrate. At least one of the absorbent resin and the ion exchange resin is exposed at an end face of the small chips.

An ambient humidity control article for controlling the ambient humidity within 65%-75%. The article includes a substrate which has a predetermined water absorbability, and a humidity control layer coated on the substrate. The humidity control layer is made up of a humidity control composition. The amount of the composition coated on per cubic centimeter of the substrate is 0.54-0.74 grams. The composition includes at least one chloride salt and water. The chloride salt includes at least one of NaCl, NH.sub.4Cl, KCl and MgCl.sub.2. The weight percentage of the chloride salt is 18%-44.6%. The water absorption amount of the substrate is not less than 0.5 grams per cubic centimeter. The article can control the ambient humidity without the need to pre-adjust the objective space. The article has a large capacity of moisture absorption and desorption and can quickly achieve the desired humidity in the objective environment.

The present technology is generally related to a filter assembly. The filter assembly has a first layer has a base layer defining a first perimeter region and a region central to the first perimeter region. A first adhesive is disposed on a first surface of the first layer substantially within the central region, and first adsorbent beads are coupled to the first adhesive. A second layer has a first sheet of filter material having a second perimeter region, wherein the first perimeter region and the second perimeter region are bonded. A third layer has a second sheet of filter material having a third perimeter region, wherein the first perimeter region and the third perimeter region are bonded. The base layer, second layer, and third layer are substantially coextensive.

Methods of passively sampling PFAS in the environment, PFAS sorbents, apparatus and systems (apparatus plus conditions) for sampling groundwater, porewater, and surface water are described.

An ammonia adsorption product is described which may be used for fresh caught fish and bait. The product may comprise functionalized tectosilicate compound and a buffer. High concentrations of ammonia produced by fish waste can be lethal, even though oxygen availability is rich enough to keep fish breathing. The product is a user-friendly, sustainable, affordable product which is able to extend the life of the fish by safely removing ammonia by an ion-exchange mechanism. This product can convert toxic ammonia into ammonium and uptake ammonium by releasing sodium ions in the water.

A filter system for adsorbing an odor of a gas flow in an industrial process includes a filter module (1) with a layer (11) containing active adsorbent (3). The layer (11) includes a plurality of active adsorbent containing permeable bags (2) arranged in close proximity to each other.

A method of treating or remediating contaminated material, such as water or soil, comprises contacting such material with asphaltenes. The asphaltenes are preferably produced as a by-product of petroleum refining and, in particular, a by-product of vacuum residua. An adsorbent material comprising such asphaltenes is also provided.
