20080197079 | Method of desorbing a volatile component from a spent adsorbent with rotating packed bed and method of recovering 2,2,3,3-tetrafluro-1-propanol from a gas stream by adsorption - A method of desorbing a volatile component from a spent adsorbent is disclosed, which includes flowing a stream of supercritical carbon dioxide through a rotating packed bed of the spent adsorbent; and collecting an effluent from the rotating packed bed, which contains supercritical carbon dioxide and the volatile component entrained therein. In one embodiment of the present invention a spent activated carbon from a process for recovering 2,2,3,3-tetrafluro-1-propanol from a gas stream containing 2,2,3,3-tetrafluro-1-propanol is regenerated by flowing a stream of supercritical carbon dioxide through a rotating packed bed of the spent activated carbon. | 08-21-2008 |
20080283470 | Watewater mercury removal process - A method for removing ionic, organic and elemental mercury from aqueous streams such as wastewater streams from hydrocarbon processing. The method comprises four primary removal steps. First, a mercury precipitant is added to the stream to convert dissolved ionic species of mercury water-insoluble form. The majority of these precipitated solids, as well as other forms of particulate mercury, are subsequently removed by means of gas flotation. Following the flotation step, additional particulate and precipitated ionic mercury removal is accomplished with media filtration and finally, activated carbon acts to remove the remaining dissolved ionic mercury species as well as elemental and organic forms of mercury. | 11-20-2008 |
20100072138 | FUNCTIONAL POWDER AND WATER TREATMENT METHOD EMPLOYING THE SAME - The present invention provides a functional powder capable of effectively adsorbing impurities in water treatment. The powder can be rapidly separated by use of magnetic force, and hence is excellent in workability. This functional powder comprises magnetic particles having surfaces modified with hydrophobic groups and hydrophilic groups loaded thereon. The hydrophobic groups have a function of adsorbing the impurities, and the hydrophilic groups have a function of dispersing the powder stably in water. The numbers M and N of the hydrophobic groups and the hydrophilic groups, respectively, satisfy the condition of 0.203-25-2010 | |
20100213133 | ENRICHMENT PROCESS FOR A PGM-METALS CONTAINING STREAM - The invention provides an enrichment process for a PGM-group metals containing stream, said process including the steps of contacting activated carbon particles with a PGM-rich stream by contacting the stream with a batch of the particles on a continuous basis, whereby at least some of the PGM-group metals are adsorbed from the stream onto active surface sites of the activated carbon and a PGM-metals depleted stream passes out of contact with the activated carbon batch, thereafter stripping the PGM-group metals from the activated carbon batch by means of a concentrated HCl solution as stripping agent, wherein the stripping agent is contacted with the activated carbon batch on a continuous flow basis and the PGM-group metals loaded stripping agent is removed from contact with the activated carbon from which the PGM-group metals have been stripped, and then regenerating the activated carbon batch by washing with water and, if necessary, reactivating the carbon particles. | 08-26-2010 |
20110210073 | POLYMERIC SORBENTS FOR REMOVING LOW LEVEL CONTAMINANTS - The present invention relates to functionalized polymeric sorbents and processes of employing them to remove low level contaminants from fluid streams. Poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate) functionalized with a compound having the structure NH | 09-01-2011 |
20120199537 | APPARATUS, METHOD, AND SYSTEM FOR CONDUCTING SINGLE-PASS FILTRATION OF INK WASTE - An apparatus for conducting single-pass filtration of ink waste is disclosed. The apparatus includes: a filter connected to a housing unit and a plurality of absorbent layers within the housing unit, wherein the plurality of absorbent layers are in any order and include: a layer for removing metal and polar compounds, a layer for removing non-polar color impurities, a layer for removing acid functional components, a layer for removing additives with polar or protic functional groups, and a layer for removing residual water. A process and a system that include or utilize the apparatus are also disclosed. | 08-09-2012 |
