Abstract: A Sorbent media exhaustion indicator produces color change when the sorbent media is saturated. The indicator's fluid inlet attach to the fluid outlet of a sorbent media device such as filter. It includes is a hollow tube or a hollow polyhedron prism that fluids flow freely through it. The indicator also includes colorimetric sensor that changes color when exposed to trace amount of toxic fluids and a trap member that prevent toxic fluids exist in the surrounding environment from changing the color of the colorimetric sensor, hence preventing false indication of sorbent media exhaustion. Another function of the trap member is to trap toxic fluids from exiting to the surrounding environment when toxic fluids breakthrough the sorbent media device.

Abstract: A cold smoke generating device includes an air source that may include a hollow flexible collapsible container having an expandable and compressible cavity for accepting air and air-borne reagent therein. The collapsible container is fluidly connected with a narrow flexible extension that includes an elongated cavity or chamber. Isolated and/or free reagents are disposed within the chamber of the narrow flexible extension. These reagents are capable of reacting with each other, with atmospheric air, or with other gases and fluids to generate a visible aerosol when expelled into the surrounding air.

Abstract: A surface wipe for real time detection of trace amounts of toxic substances on surfaces. The wipe includes a collection surface that is swiped across a surface to be tested. The collection media filters dirt and other materials to prevent or reduce inaccurage readings caused by dirt or other foreign matter. A reactive media next to the collecting surface is impregnated with chemicals that react to the toxic substances to create a color change in the reactive media. The color change may be viewed through a clear backing.
