Abstract: Sorbent material sheets provide for enhanced performance in vapor adsorbing applications over conventional canisters and other emissions control equipment. The sorbent material sheets can be formed as part of a small, lightweight canister, or can be integrated into a fuel tank. The sorbent material sheets can also be used as part of an onboard refueling vapor recovery system to control volatile organic compound emissions from fuel tanks of gasoline vehicles, such as automobiles.

Abstract: Sorbent material sheets are wound around a center core of material that includes additional sorbent. This configuration further increases the packaging efficiency and performance of the sorbent material sheets as part of an overall housing or apparatus. In some embodiments, the sorbent material sheets are arranged in a stacked configuration. Configurations of the sorbent material sheets as part of a canister are also described.

Abstract: A Vapor Recovery Unit (VRU) includes a VRU heat exchanger and a sorbent material for the recovery of hydrocarbon vapors from the ullage of tanks. The VRU heat exchanger and sorbent material are useful in conjunction with a thermal transfer fluid to control the temperatures of the sorbent material during endothermic and exothermic reactions that occur when hydrocarbon vapors are adsorbed and desorbed, which increases performance and reduces the amount of sorbent material required to recover hydrocarbon vapors.

Abstract: Sorbent material sheets products that include sorbent material sheets and at least one porous cover layer are attached to an inner wall surface that is defined by an air intake. The sorbent material sheets collect vapors such as hydrocarbon vapors from engine components such as the combustion chamber, injectors, carburetor, fuel ports, crankcase, or other engine components, thereby reducing evaporative emissions. In certain configurations, the sorbent material sheet product includes an edge seal that improves the handling of the sorbent material sheets during the manufacturing process.

Abstract: Textured sorbent material sheets provide for enhanced performance in vapor adsorbing applications over conventional sheets, systems, canisters and other emissions control equipment. The textured sorbent material sheets can be formed as part of a small, lightweight system, canister, or can be integrated into a fuel tank.

Abstract: The method for removing mercury from a flue gas stream of the present invention is comprised of first treating a sorbent with a metal halide, and then contacting a sufficient amount of the sorbent with a gas stream for a sufficient amount of time to bind with a desired amount of the mercury in said gas stream. The metal is selected from Groups I and II of the periodic table of the elements. The halide is selected from the group consisting of I, Br, Cl. The metal halide comprises from about 0.5% to 25% by weight of said treated sorbent.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for removing contaminates from an air stream in which an adsorbent activated carbon cloth is positioned in said air stream. The method and apparatus provide for impressing an electric current through the cloth adsorbent to desorb any contaminates adsorbed thereon.

Abstract: Aqueous ethanol and other lower alkanol water mixtures may be dehydrated in the gas or liquid phase by using carbon molecular sieves. These sieves preferentially adsorb water and recovery of absolute ethanol or other absolute alkanol is achieved. Absolute ethanol produced from this process may be used in the manufacture of gasohol.
