The first iron compound of the ozone-decomposing agent may include an oxide selected from Fe2O3, FeO(OH) or Fe(OH)3. The second iron compound of the ozone-decomposing agent may include an oxide selected from MnFe2O4, ZnFe2O4, NiFe2O4, CuFe2O4 or CoFe2O4.

Abstract: Enclosed is an air conditioner including a foreign matter collecting unit to secondarily collect foreign matter in a brush assembly when the brush assembly for firstly collecting and accumulating the foreign matter filtered by a filter automatically moves. Therefore, the foreign matter separated from the filter is firstly collected in the brush assembly, and the foreign matter can be secondly collected in the foreign matter collecting unit by moving the brush assembly. Therefore, the foreign matter filtered by the filter is automatically removed so that the inconvenient of exchanging and cleaning the filter can be settled and pollution of the filter can be prevented. Since the foreign matter is discharged to outdoor side by simply detaching the foreign matter collecting unit so that convenience of use can be enhanced.

Abstract: A flare stack that preferably comprises a burner assembly, an exhaust stack, an housing, and a fuel line. The burner assembly burns a fuel to generate thermal energy and combustion byproducts. The exhaust stack is cooperatively associated with the burner assembly to direct the thermal energy and combustion byproducts away from the burner assembly. The housing at least partially defines a fluid-receiving chamber in thermal communication with the exhaust stack. The fluid-receiving chamber has a heat-transfer fluid disposed therein. The fuel line is in fluid communication with the burner assembly to deliver fuel to the burner assembly. At least a portion of the fuel line is in thermal communication with at least one of the exhaust stack, housing, or heat-transfer fluid to permit fuel in the fuel line to absorb thermal energy before reaching the burner assembly.

Abstract: An air filtering apparatus including a housing having an air suction port through which air is sucked and an air blow-out port through which air is blown out, an air blower for forming in the housing an air flowing passage through which the air sucked from the air suction port flows to the air blow-out port, an air filtering unit that is disposed on the air flowing passage and brings the air supplied along the air flowing passage into contact with electrolytic water containing active oxygen species to filter the air, an electrolytic water supply unit for electrolyzing prescribed water to generate the electrolytic water and supplying the electrolytic water to the air filtering unit, and a water supply unit having a water stock unit for stocking the prescribed water supplied through a water distributing pipe from an external water supply source, the water stocked in the water stock unit being supplied to the electrolytic water supply unit, wherein the air filtered by the air filtering unit is blown out from the

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for highly purifying nitric oxide by removing impurities included in nitric oxide, which comprises: a number of dehumidifiers connected to one another in a series, to remove water and carbon dioxide from the nitric oxide; a vaporizing and liquefying unit for respectively separating impurities into a gaseous state and a liquid state by cooling the nitric oxide which passed through the dehumidifiers at sub-zero temperatures; a storage tank for storing highly purified nitric oxide separated by the vaporizing and liquefying unit; an exhaust pump for discharging gaseous impurities, separated by the vaporizing and liquefying unit, to a scrubber; an outlet for discharging liquid impurities, separated by the vaporizing and liquefying unit, to the scrubber; and the scrubber 50 for purifying the gaseous and liquid impurities.

Abstract: An air filtering apparatus for electrolyzing water in an electrolytic bath by applying a voltage between electrodes in the electrolytic bath, supplying the generated electrolytic water to a gas-liquid contact member and blowing air to the gas-liquid contact member to filter the air, including a scale removing unit for inverting the polarities of the electrodes to remove scale deposited on the electrodes, and a judging unit for judging on the basis of a current value flowing between the electrodes whether the scale is removed from the surface of the electrode.

Abstract: A sheet-like filter element is installed on a support within the casing of a filter device. A plate-like portion is integrally formed in at least the outer periphery of the filter element. A crimped portion which is to be secured to the support in a crimped state is formed in this plate-like portion. A protrusion which rises through the above described plate-like portion is formed so as to be integrated with the above described support around this crimped portion. The plate-like portion is secured to the support by means of this protrusion.

Abstract: A dual stage coalescer includes a separator in a separator chamber separating gas and liquid by inertial impaction, and a coalescer filter element in a coalescer chamber separating gas and liquid by coalescence. A transfer tube extends between the separator chamber and a downstream subchamber in the coalescer chamber at the downstream face of the coalescer filter element, and supplies pre-separated liquid from the separator chamber through the transfer tube to the noted downstream subchamber as driven by pressure differential between the separator chamber and the downstream subchamber, to eliminate a dedicated housing drain outlet from the separator chamber. The coalescer may provide a crankcase ventilation filter for an internal combustion engine having blowby gas containing an air-oil mixture.

Abstract: A self cleaning filter for a small internal combustion engine (1) is disclosed. The filter (16, 36, 46) is generally rectangular and is located closely adjacent the air exit region of the engine's fan (2). The longitudinal axis of the filter is generally aligned with the direction of air flow. The filter can be flat (16), curved (36) or inclined towards the air flow (46). The arrangement permits a more compact configuration for the engine (1).

Abstract: A disposable filter media removably attachable to a conventional lint trap utilized in automatic clothes dryers is provided. The disposable filter media is in the form of a flexible, lightweight meshed liner adapted for snug, releasable attachment atop the lint collecting surface of a lint trap. The liner functions to provide optimum lint capturing efficiency without an inordinate drop in the air volume in a clothes dryer and is easily removed and disposed of after use.

Abstract: A vehicle air dryer comprising: a dryer cylinder for drying compressed air passing therethrough, an exhaust assembly for providing an additional air outlet, a backflow assembly for providing a backflow air passage, an air pressure governor assembly for maintaining air pressure inside the vehicle air dryer, an one way check valve for providing one way air passage for dried compressed air and preventing air leakage, and a dryer valve body having an air inlet, an air inlet chamber, an air outlet, a slanting air passage leading to the air outlet, a first opening for installing the exhaust assembly, an opposite, second opening for threadingly attaching the dryer cylinder, a third opening, substantially perpendicular to the second opening, for mounting the backflow assembly, and a fourth opening, substantially parallel to the third opening, for receiving the air pressure governor assembly.
