095154000 | Surfactant or wetting agent | 9 |
20080196586 | Use of Detergent Additives For Reducing a Particle Amount in the Exhaust Gas of Direct Injection Diesel Engines - The present invention relates to the use of detergent additives for reducing or preventing the formation of deposits in the injection systems of direct-injection diesel engines and in particular in common rail injection systems. | 08-21-2008 |
20090114096 | SEPARATION, PURIFICATION AND RECOVERY METHOD OF SF6, HFCs AND PFCs - A separation, purification and recovery method of SF | 05-07-2009 |
20100024645 | METHODS FOR APPLYING MICROCHANNELS TO SEPARATE GASES USING LIQUID ABSORBENTS, ESPECIALLY IONIC LIQUID (IL) ABSORBENTS - Methods of using microchannel separation systems including absorbents to improve thermal efficiency and reduce parasitic power loss. Energy is typically added to desorb a solute and then energy or heat is removed to absorb a solute using a working solution. The working solution or absorbent may comprise an ionic liquid, or other fluids that demonstrate a difference in affinity between a solute and other gases in a solution. | 02-04-2010 |
20100024646 | Air Scrubber with Folded Air Flow - A scrubber has a return air inlet and an outside air inlet receiving contaminated air into a passageway with an aspect ratio greater than 4, the passageway surfaces wetted by a fluid disposed from a pre-wetter. The passageway has a first section whereby contaminated air travels downward toward the fluid surface of a main reservoir, and is thereafter directed upward and through a scrub reservoir having a plurality of apertures. The contaminated air mixes with the fluid of the scrub reservoir, forming a mixture of contaminants and fluid which are returned to the main reservoir, and also producing clean air with airborne fluid droplets which are passed to a demister pad for separating the fluid droplets and returning them to the reservoir, and the cleaned air is provided to a clean air outlet. A blower moves the air through the scrubber, and a pump pressurizes fluid from the main reservoir and provides it to the pre-wetter and to the scrub reservoir, such as through a gutter reservoir. | 02-04-2010 |
20100263535 | WET SCRUBBING FOR REMOVING PARTICULATE SOLIDS FROM OXYGEN SUPPLY LINE - A method of mixing an oxygen gas with a hydrocarbon-containing gas includes the steps of wet scrubbing the oxygen gas in a wet scrubber, supplying oxygen gas from the wet scrubber to a gas mixer and mixing the oxygen gas with the hydrocarbon-containing gas in the gas mixer. Wet scrubbers for use in the method may take various forms, including packed-tower, bubble cap, and sparger-type wet scrubbers. The removal of the particulate matter reduces the risk of ignition of the hydrocarbon-containing gas in the gas mixer. The use of a wet scrubber in the oxygen supply line overcomes many problems currently faced with screen and filters, as per current practice. | 10-21-2010 |
20110061531 | APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF - The invention relates to a gas liquid contactor and effluent cleaning system and method and more particularly to an array of nozzles configured to produce uniformly spaced flat liquid jets with reduced linear stability. An embodiment of the invention is directed towards a stability unit used with nozzles of a gas liquid contactor and/or an enhancer for stable jet formation, and more particularly to reducing the stability of liquid jets formed from nozzles of the gas liquid contactor. Another aspect of the invention relates to operating the apparatus at a condition that reduces the stability of liquid jets, e.g., a droplet generator apparatus. Yet another aspect of the invention relates to operation of the apparatus with an aqueous slurry. Still another aspect of the invention is directed towards to an apparatus for substantially separating at least two fluids. | 03-17-2011 |
20120000361 | Composition and method for dust suppression wetting agent - This disclosure teaches a composition and process which makes it possible to remove floating particulates or prevent the dissemination or particulates, by the misting of a solution that readily captures any particulate material in the air. More specifically, the present disclosure teaches the composition and use of aromatic compounds that are semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) or slow evaporators in water-based carriers with surfactants as the misting/fogging agent for dust suppression. The particulate material is lowered to surfaces and removed by vacuuming, damp-wiping or using a dry cloth with a cationic charge (static cloth). This method can be achieved with neutral air pressure differentials in the work areas. | 01-05-2012 |

20160082384 | REDUCTION OF AMINE EMISSIONS FROM AN AQUEOUS AMINE CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE SYSTEM USING CHARGED COLLOIDAL GAS APHRONS - The present invention includes a system and process to reduce amine mist emissions (or MEA) from carbon capture systems using colloidal gas aphrons (CGA), and includes a method for separating and recovering an amine solvent (e.g., in the form of entrained droplets/mist and/or fine aerosol particles) from a carbon dioxide scrubbed flue gas stream exiting a carbon capture system (e.g., oil-fired power plants, coal-fired power plants, and/or natural gas combined cycle plants). | 03-24-2016 |
