A preparation method of a titanium-dioxide-based double-layer hollow material includes the following steps: (1) using polystyrene nanospheres with particle size of 180 nm as a template, tetrabutyl titanate as a precursor, to prepare hollow titanium dioxide by calcining; (2) subjecting said hollow titanium dioxide to carboxylation modification to prepare carboxylated titanium dioxide; and (3) dispersing said carboxylated titanium dioxide in ethanol, using chromic nitrate nonahydrate as an assembly agent and trimesic acid as a crosslinking agent to carry out layer-by-layer self-assembly so as to prepare the titanium-dioxide-based double-layer hollow material.

Scavenging compounds and compositions useful in reducing sulfide emissions from polymer treated asphalt, such as polyphosphoric acid, are disclosed. The scavengers include hexamethyl-enetetramine, water-free triazine, and water-free 1,3,5-triazine derivatives of formula I. Methods of using the compositions to reduce hydrogen sulfide emissions from asphalt are also disclosed.

Provided are a reclaimer that introduces a part of an absorbent that has absorbed CO.sub.2 or H.sub.2S in a flue gas through an introduction line and stores the absorbent, a heating section that heats the absorbent stored in the reclaimer to obtain recovered vapor, and a mixing tank disposed on the introduction line through which the absorbent is introduced into the reclaimer, and which introduces an absorbent (lean solution) and an alkaline agent for mixing thereof.

A system for reducing SO.sub.2 emissions comprises a hydrogenation reactor, a tail gas cooler, a contact condenser, a hydrolysis reactor, and an absorber. The hydrogenation reactor is configured to receive a Claus tail gas and convert at least a portion of SO.sub.2 in the Claus tail gas to H.sub.2S to produce a hydrogenated Claus tail gas stream. The hydrolysis reactor is configured to convert at least a portion of COS to H.sub.2S. The absorber comprises an amine-based solvent and is configured to absorb at least a portion of the H.sub.2S and recycle the H.sub.2S to the Claus plant.

Disclosed are systems and methods which provide a process stream comprising a gaseous component, capture the gaseous component from the process stream by an ionic liquid solvent of a separator, and recover a captured gaseous component from the ionic liquid solvent in a regenerator. A second gaseous component from the process stream may be captured by the ionic liquid solvent of the separator, and the second gaseous component may be recovered from the ionic liquid solvent in the regenerator. Alternatively, the second gaseous component from the process stream may be uncaptured by the ionic liquid solvent, and the uncaptured second gaseous component may be recovered from a membrane unit.
