Abstract: A modularly configured hand sanitizing fluid storage and dispensing device is provided comprising an outer container that can be attached to a fixed object where hand sanitation is desired. The dispenser has an interior cavity accessible from the exterior, through a door, and a fluid reservoir attached to hand sanitizer dispensers, placed either on the device or connected distally by using tubing to feed fluid to the dispensers. The placement of the dispensers can be made in accordance with local codes or in accordance with the Americans with Disability Act, to provide users with hand sanitizing fluid. The fluid is placed in the outer container by using fluid modules comprising bag-in-box (BIB) modules that are, when inserted, in fluid communication with the reservoir, filling the reservoir upon insertion. The module can be readily replaced when empty, while leaving the reservoir of the container filled for use while the module is being replaced.

Abstract: In a first cycle, an effluent gas composition including volatile organic compounds flows into a first vessel having heated ceramic material therein, forming a heated effluent composition, which then flows into a combustion/retention chamber connected to the first vessel, the combustion/retention chamber comprising a burner, which combusts VOCs in heated effluent composition. The hydrocarbon-depleted heated effluent composition flows into a second vessel with a second ceramic material therein, and heat transferred thereto. A hydrocarbon-depleted first cycle cooled effluent composition is directed into a first indirect heat exchanger, transferring heat to a very low VOC airstream. The heated very low VOC airstream is then directed into a unit designed to employ the heated very VOC airstream for heating. The effluent composition is then directed into a second indirect heat exchanger, transferring heat to a water stream. The direction of flow is reversed in a second cycle, while a third vessel is purged.
