An adsorbent separates methanol and other alcohols from gas and liquid oxygenates and hydrocarbon streams with a low silica faujasite (LSX) in a mono-, bi, or tri-cation alkali and/or alkaline-earth metal forms. The LSX has silicon to aluminum ratio from about 0.9 to about 1.15 and an ion exchange degree for each alkali or alkaline-earth metal in the range of about 10 to about 99.9% equiv. The gas streams for treatment include natural gas, individual hydrocarbons, or vaporized alkyl esters of carboxylic acids, or methyl tert-alkyl ethers and their mixtures with hydrocarbons. The liquid streams include liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), natural gas liquid (NGL), individual hydrocarbons C.sub.3-C.sub.5, and monomers, alkyl esters of carboxylic acids including methyl acetate, methyl, ethyl, butyl acrylates and methacrylate, methyl tert-alkyl ethers including methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and methyl tert-amyl ether (TAME). The adsorbent is especially suited for temperature swing or pressure swing adsorption processes.

STA-19, a molecular sieve having a GME structure and phosphorus in the framework, is described. STA-19AP (as prepared) can have a lower alkyl amine, such as trimethylamine, and olig-(1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)-pentyl dibromide ([DABCO-C5].sub.x where x represents the number of repeating units) or olig-(1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2] octane)-hexyl dibromide ([DABCO-C6].sub.x) as SDAs. A lower alkyl ammonium hydroxide, such as tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH), can be used as a pH modifier for the preparation of SAPO-STA-19. A calcined product, STA-19C, formed from STA-19AP is also described. Methods of preparing STA-19AP, STA-19C and metal containing calcined counterparts of STA-19C are described along with methods of using STA-19C and metal containing calcined counterparts of STA-19C in a variety of processes, such as treating exhaust gases and converting methanol to olefins are described.

A hydrocarbon adsorbent according to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a beta zeolite containing copper, in which a Si/Al molar ratio of the beta zeolite is 12.5 to 150, and the amount of the copper contained is 1 wt % to 10 wt %.

This disclosure relates to new crystalline microporous solids (including silicate- and aluminosilicate-based solids), the compositions comprising 8 and 10 membered inorganic rings, particularly those having IWV topologies having a range of Si:Al ratios, methods of preparing these and known crystalline microporous solids using certain quaternized imidazolium cation templates.

The present invention relates to a zeolite material in the form of FAU zeolite nanocrystal aggregates, to the method for preparing said material, to the zeolite agglomerates prepared from said material with a binder, and to the uses of said material and agglomerate as adsorbents for gas-phase or liquid-phase separation operations, and particularly in methods for separating gas or liquid flows.

An adsorbent having a composition comprising at least 90% chabazite where the chabazite is a single phase chabazite having an Si/Al ratio of 1.2 to 1.8, the chabazite includes a mixture of at least two types of cations, and each of the at least two types of cations are in a molar ratio relative to Al of at least 0.05.

Uses are disclosed for a new crystalline molecular sieve designated SSZ-102 synthesized using an N,N′-dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane dication as a structure directing agent. SSZ-102 has ESV framework topology.

A (V)PSA unit for purifying a gas stream by adsorption is provided. The (V)PSA unit comprises, arranged successively in the direction of flow of the feed gas stream, a rotary-structured adsorbent wheel configured so as to drive the gas stream therethrough in an axial manner and allowing the feed gas to dry to a level corresponding to a dew point below −30 C, and an adsorber with a centripetal radial configuration, comprising a bed of particulate adsorbent.

An electrical switching device is provided for interrupting an electrical connection. The device has a switching chamber and two contact pieces being arranged directly in the switching chamber or in an encapsulated housing arranged in the switching chamber and configured to be gas-tight in relation to the switching chamber. The contact pieces are movable relative to each other to bring about a switching action. A fluid insulation medium is also provided, which is arranged in the switching chamber or in a storage volume which can be connected to the switching chamber. The switching chamber or the storage volume has an outlet for letting out the fluid insulation medium. A filter is provided at or adjacent to the outlet, the filter configured to filter gaseous components of the insulation medium, or the reaction products thereof, conducted through the outlet.

This gas purification filter unit (10) is provided with: a first elimination unit (11) that eliminates gas component impurities among the impurities contained in ozone generated from an ozone generating device; and a second elimination unit (12) that is disposed at a later stage than the first elimination unit and that further eliminates solid particulate impurities from among the impurities from which the gas component has been eliminated. Ozone containing impurities are caused to flow in from the inflow end (10a) of such a gas purification filter unit (10) and is passed through the first elimination unit (11) and second elimination unit (12), and thus ozone from which impurities have been eliminated is discharged from an outflow end (10b).
