  • Functionalized activated carbon products, processes for producing functionalized activated carbon products, and uses of functionalized activated carbon products
    Patent number: 12234155
    Abstract: A process for producing functionalized activated carbon product includes creating grafting sites on a surface of an activated carbon product, to yield a precursor activated carbon product; exposing the precursor activated carbon product to at least a first vinyl monomer; and initiating a polymerization reaction to graft at least the first vinyl monomer to the grafting sites and polymerize the first vinyl monomer to yield the functionalized activated carbon product. A functionalized activated carbon product includes an activated carbon product having a surface and at least a first polymer grafted to the surface. A process for removing contaminants from water includes adding a functionalized activated carbon product to contaminated water, wherein the functionalized activated carbon product includes an activated carbon product having a surface and at least a first polymer grafted to the surface; and allowing the functionalized activated carbon product to adsorb contaminants from the contaminated water.

  • DEVICE FOR PLACING MATERIAL
    Publication number: 20230157194
    Abstract: A device for precisely placing material in a distant location comprising a scoop attached to a pole wherein the pole is at least five times the length of the scoop, the angle between the pole and the scoop is between 14 and 20 degrees, and the pole comprises multiple sections capable of being attached to one and another. The invention provides particular utility as a tool used in concrete leveling and smoothing.
