20090112043 | PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR TREATING A GAS CONTAINING A CONTAMINANT - Apparatus, process and article for treating a gas containing one or more of a chemical and/or biological contaminant. The process includes contacting the gas with an aggregate composition comprising an insoluble rare earth-containing compound to form a gas depleted of chemical and active biological contaminants. The insoluble rare earth-containing compound can include one or more of cerium, lanthanum, or praseodymium. The composition comprises no more than two elements selected from the group consisting of yttrium, scandium, and europium when the aggregate has been sintered. A suitable insoluble cerium-containing compound can be derived from cerium carbonate. In one embodiment, the aggregate composition consists essentially of one or more cerium oxides, and optionally, a binder. Although intended for a variety of fluid treatment applications, such applications specifically include the treatment of breathing gases such as air that may contain chemical and/or biological contaminants. | 04-30-2009 |
20100113857 | FIBERS FOR DECONTAMINATION OF CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL AGENTS - A nano-sized or micro-sized fiber comprising particles capable of at least partially detoxifying a toxic agent. | 05-06-2010 |
20100179368 | Novel Chemistries, Solutions, and Dispersal Systems for Decontamination of Chemical and Biological Systems - The present invention relates generally to chemical and biological decontamination solutions and methods of using them. The invention is useful for decontaminating a wide range of compounds and organisms. In particular, the systems, methods, solutions, and formulations of the invention can be used to remove and/or neutralize organophosphates and other toxic chemicals, bacteria, bacterial spores, fungi, molds and viruses. | 07-15-2010 |
20100286462 | Apparati and Method for Remediating Biologically Active Particles - The present invention provides a mixture and method for remediating air dispersed biological particles. The mixture contains a carrier, an active biocidal ingredient, and a deliquescent which are mixed, heated and then grinded into biocidal particles approximately 1-50 microns in size. The biocidal particles are then dispersed into the air infected with biological particles using an aerosol generator and similar device. The biocidal particles may be charged to attract the biological particles and the carrier assists in attaching to the biological particles. Upon exposure to ambient humidity the deliquescent dissolves and allows the active biocidal ingredient to react creating a chemical byproduct which attacks and remediates the biological particles. The present invention may utilize two mixtures with two separate active biocidal ingredients which react with one another to create the desired chemical byproduct such as chlorine dioxide. The chemical byproduct may be hydrogen peroxide. The active biocidal ingredient may be biocidal immediately through use of botanical active biocidal ingredients such as Cinnamon Leaf or Lemongrass. | 11-11-2010 |
20110288360 | COMPOSITIONS FOR NEUTRALIZATION AND DECONTAMINATION OF TOXIC CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL AGENTS - Described herein are compositions for neutralization and decontamination of toxic chemical and biological agents. In one embodiment, the subject matter discloses a nontoxic, non-corrosive composition capable of neutralizing and decontaminating toxic chemical and biological agents in a very short period of time. The present subject matter finds utility in a great number of occasions, including, but not limited to, military actions or terrorist attacks where chemical or biological agents are utilized. | 11-24-2011 |
