The present invention discloses a novel multipurpose fast dehumidification device, in which materials with different functions can be placed simultaneously or separately, such as moisture absorption materials, aromatic materials, mosquito repelling (insect repelling) materials or deodorization materials. The present invention comprises a base, a placement frame and a circulation mechanism One end of the placement frame is movably connected with the base, and the other end of the placement frame is movably connected with the circulation mechanism; and the moisture absorption materials are placed in the placement frame. After the device is started, air in an environment is sucked by the circulation mechanism, then reaches the placement frame, and then is discharged from the placement frame after being dehumidified. The present invention has the beneficial effects that the structure is simple, and the use is convenient; the complicated structure of a traditional dehumidifier is abandoned, and the cost of a product is reduced to a maximum degree; at the same time, a single dehumidification function is expanded, which can play a role in different use scenes. That is, besides the dehumidification function, functions of atmosphere creation, mosquito repelling (insect repelling), deodorization and the like can also be realized.

A device for drying compressed gas, having an inlet for compressed gas to be dried and an outlet for dried compressed gas. The device includes at least two vessels, a regenerable drying agent and a controllable valve system. By controlling the valve system, the vessels are each in turn successively regenerated. The device is provided with a regeneration conduit splitting off a portion of the dried compressed gas as a regeneration gas and feeding it into the at least one vessel that is being regenerated. The regeneration conduit at least partly extends through an opening in the vessels such that the regeneration gas can be split off from the vessel that dries the compressed gas. A heater is provided in the regeneration conduit for heating the regeneration gas before the regeneration gas is fed through the drying agent into the vessel that is being regenerated.

A system and a method for continuously separating carbon dioxide from gas mixtures, utilizing a continuous loop of porous monoliths which support a sorbent within its pores. Continuously exposing a portion of the continuous loop of monoliths to a flow of gas mixture containing a minor proportion of carbon dioxide, to adsorb carbon dioxide from the flow. The loop passes through a sealed regeneration and carbon dioxide capture assembly located astride a portion of the loop, and which is capable of sealingly containing a monolith in relative movement through the assembly. The assembly chamber comprises a plurality of separately sealed zones, including at least one zone for purging oxygen from the monoliths, -a subsequent zone for heating the monolith to release the adsorbed carbon dioxide, and another cooling zone for cooling the monolith prior to reentering the adsorption portion of the loop where it is exposed to oxygen.

A process for adsorbing impurities from hydrocarbon gas streams is disclosed. The process involves passing a hydrocarbon gas stream and a solid dry adsorbent under inert environment to a scrubbing chamber for adsorbing impurities from the hydrocarbon gas streams within the scrubbing chamber. The process adsorption of impurities in scrubbing chamber is carried under non-oxidative conditions to generate a clean product gas.

A system and method for capturing volatile organic components from a liner curing process for pipes. The system receives steam exhausted from the liner. The steam is used for curing a curable material in the liner, but volatilizes organic components in the resin carried along with the steam. The system removes some water and passes the remaining vaporized constituents through a filter selected to capture the particular volatile organic component from the steam.

Some embodiments of the disclosure correspond to, for example, a method for controlling a scrubber containing an adsorbent. The scrubber may be configured to cycle between scrubbing at least one pollutant/gas from a stream of gases with the pollutant/gas being adsorbed onto the adsorbent, and regenerating at least some of the adsorbent and thereby purging at least some of the one pollutant and/or first gas from the adsorbent via a regeneration gas flow. The method may include flowing a stream of gases through the scrubber, the scrubber including the adsorbent and adsorbing at least some of the one pollutant/gas from the stream of gases onto the adsorbent during an adsorption phase over a first time period. The method may also include purging at least a portion of the one pollutant/gas from the adsorbent during a regeneration phase over a second time period with a regeneration gas flow, and cycling therebetween.

An adsorbent system including a body having or defining a channel therein, wherein the body is configured to be coupled to a humidity-controlled environment such that a first end of the channel is in selective fluid communication with the ambient environment and such that a second end of the channel is in fluid communication with said humidity-controlled environment. The system further includes an adsorbent material in the channel, wherein the channel and adsorbent material are configured such that inlet fluid flowing from the first end to the second end through the channel is flowable over the adsorbent material, and such that outlet fluid flowing from the second end to the first end is flowable over a majority of the adsorbent material that is flowable over by the inlet fluid. The system also includes a valve system positioned at or adjacent to or in fluid communication with the first end of the channel.

Methods and systems for purging fuel vapors from an evaporative emissions system of a vehicle are described. The methods and systems may include opening one or more bypass valves of carbon filled canisters to supply air to a low pressure port of a venturi pump. The bypass valves may be opened when fuel vapors are being moved from a fuel tank to an engine while the engine operates.

Product manifolds for use with portable oxygen concentrators and portable oxygen concentrators including such product manifolds. A product manifold for use with a portable oxygen concentrator includes a first product port, a second product port, an accumulator port, an output port, and a flow path. The flow path operatively coupling each of the first product port, the second product port, the accumulator port, and the output port to one another. The product manifold includes a plurality of control ports. Each of the control ports fluidly coupling the flow path. The product manifold includes a first orifice disposed in a first portion of the flow path; a second orifice disposed in a second portion of the flow path; and a third orifice disposed in a third portion of the flow path. Each of the first orifice, the second orifice, and the third orifice being formed by an electrical forming process and having a thickness of between about 0.0025 inches and about 0.004 inches.

A method for capturing CO.sub.2 from a gas stream using a metal organic framework (MOF) based physisorbent CO.sub.2 concentrator is provided. In the method, MOF material is pretreated, a gas stream is then introduced into the CO.sub.2 concentrator which comprises the pretreated MOF material. CO.sub.2 from the gas stream is captured with the CO.sub.2 concentrator to generate a CO.sub.2-free stream, which is discharged the from the CO.sub.2 concentrator into the atmosphere. Introduction of the gas stream into the CO.sub.2 concentrator is stopped when the pretreated MOF material becomes saturated with CO.sub.2. The CO.sub.2 concentrator with the saturated MOF material is then regenerated by introducing hot air, hot nitrogen, vacuum, or a combination thereof into the CO.sub.2 concentrator thereby generating a CO.sub.2-rich stream. The CO.sub.2-rich stream is diverted for purification and the regenerated CO.sub.2 concentrator is recycled for future capture of CO.sub.2.
