Abstract: A trailer for transporting a liquid mixture having at least about 5% peracetic acid by weight includes a stainless steel tank having an external spill containment enclosure and a predetermined maximum allowable working pressure. One or more pressure relief valves are included in a wall of the tank within the external spill containment enclosure and configured to provide pressure relief to the tank at a pressure of between about 20%-50% of the maximum working pressure of the tank, thereby preventing over-pressurization of a reactive and decomposing fluid during a fire event. Wheels and a kingpin are affixed to the tank to enable transportation over public roadways.

Abstract: A method for removing nitrogen oxides in stationary source combustion flue gas streams includes introducing a reagent or a mixture comprising carbamide peroxide and water as a reducing agent.

Abstract: Aqueous well treatment fluid compositions with biocidal activity are disclosed comprising a polymer for modifying fluid viscosity in the aqueous fluid, an organic monocarboxylic peracid being present in an anti-microbial amount of about 1 ppm to about 1000 ppm, and a controlled amount of hydrogen peroxide also being present. Peracetic acid is the preferred peracid. The viscosity-modifying polymer in the aqueous well treatment fluid composition may serve to reduce friction in the fluid or increase fluid viscosity. A method of using such compositions is also disclosed.

Abstract: Aqueous well treatment fluid compositions are disclosed comprising an aqueous fluid containing polymer or copolymer for modifying fluid viscosity of the aqueous fluid and, in addition, an agent for effecting a controlled reduction in the aqueous fluid viscosity in a subterranean environment. The viscosity-reducing agent comprises a dilute concentration of peracetic acid. A method of using such compositions in oil- and gas-field treatment operations is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of sterilizing a surface comprising treating such surface with a vapor comprising peracetic acid at a concentration of at least about 3500 ppm at between about 57° and about 75° C. Such method is preferably conducted in the absence of a hydrogen peroxide initiator, and is particularly suitable for the sterilization of polyethylene terephthalate bottles.
