The present invention covers a novel method for creating an adsorbent and the resulting novel adsorbent. The method may be used to remove pollutants/unwanted chemicals from water, air, other gases, biological fluids (such as blood, urine, lipids, protein fluids), and other fluids (such as fuel). The adsorbent may be used to remove heavy metals (for example, lead), organic pollutants, inorganic non-meal pollutants (for example, nitrates and bromates). Accordingly, the current invention has many applications including but not limited to water treatment, wastewater treatment, biomedical fluid treatments, gas cleanup, and fuel (oil, gas) cleanup.

A method and system for manufacturing and using a self-supporting structure in processing unit for adsorption or catalytic processes. The self-supporting structure has greater than 50% by weight of the active material in the self-supporting structure to provide an open-celled structure providing access to the active material. The self-supporting structures, which may be disposed in a processing unit, may be used in swing adsorption processes and other processes to enhance the recovery of hydrocarbons.

Further, the present invention relates to a process for preparing a molding, and to a molding obtainable and/or obtained according to said process. Yet further, the present invention relates to a use of said zeolitic material and molding.

A method of producing a porous carbon is provided that can change type of functional groups, amount of functional groups, or ratio of functional groups while inhibiting its pore structure from changing. A method of producing a porous carbon includes: a first step of carbonizing a material containing a carbon source and a template source, to prepare a carbonized product; and a second step of immersing the carbonized product into a template removing solution, to remove a template from the carbonized product, and the method is characterized by changing at least two or more of the following conditions: type of the material, ratio of the carbon source and the template source, size of the template, and type of the template removal solution, to thereby control type, amount, or ratio of functional groups that are present in the porous carbon.

The present disclosure relates to molecularly imprinted polymers that target cannabinoid(s), including THC and CBD, as well as methods of making molecularly imprinted polymers that target cannabinoid(s), including THC and CBD and uses thereof.

The present disclosure is directed to large-pore germanosilicate compositions designated CIT-13/OH and CIT-14/IST, the two large-pore germanosilicate each having a three-dimensional framework with 10- and 14-membered ring channels and 8- and 12-membered ring channels, respectively. The disclosure also sets forth methods for converting the former to the latter under conditions consistent with an inverse sigma transformation. Uses of the large-pore germanosilicate compositions are also disclosed.

Methods of preparing polymer-filled chromatography resin and their uses are provided.

A zeolitic material having the ITH framework structure type.A process for the preparation of a zeolitic material having the ITH framework structure type, the process comprising: (1) preparing a mixture comprising one or more specific organotemplates as structure direct-ing agents, one or more sources of YO2, optionally one or more sources of X2O3, seed crystals, and a solvent system, wherein Y is tetravalent element and X is a trivalent ele-ment,(2) heating the mixture obtained in (1) for crystallizing a zeolitic material having the ITH framework structure type comprising YO2 and optionally X2O3 in its framework structure; wherein the one or more organotemplates comprise a specific polymeric cation.

The present invention relates to a method for producing biocidal, porous particles of a cross-linked polymer, and to the porous particles that can be produced according to the method of the invention.
