Abstract: An adsorbent composition for capturing pollutants includes a porous composition that includes a plurality of ferric oxyhydroxide particles and an additional component in the porous composition. The additional component includes one of copper chloride (CuCl2), zinc chloride (ZnCl2), polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, silicon carbide, silicon dioxide, activated carbon or other carbonaceous material, and a combination thereof.

Abstract: A hydrogen sulfide sensor includes a substrate, a par of interdigitated electrodes disposed on the substrate, and a homogeneous polyaniline sensing film disposed on the pair of interdigitated electrodes and having electrical conductivity that depends upon a concentration of hydrogen sulfide. A method for detecting hydrogen sulfide includes for each sensor of a plurality of sensors: generating a signal if said sensor is exposed to a sample of hydrogen sulfide having density greater than or equal to a hydrogen sulfide detection threshold of said sensor, wherein the plurality of sensors has a respective plurality of hydrogen sulfide detection limits that span a detection range. A method for forming a hydrogen sulfide sensor includes dissolving a polyaniline polymer and a metal-chloride salt in an organic solvent to form a solution, and spin-coating the solution to form a homogeneous sensing film disposed on a pair of interdigitated electrodes disposed on a substrate.
