  • Publication number: 20230242459
    Abstract: An agricultural admixture includes an acid, an organic amine, boron and one or more additional micronutrients, in which the boron and additional micronutrients are chelated, along with a saccharide. In the admixture, boron is present in an amount of at least 1.0 wt % thereof, the admixture contains a total boron and additional micronutrients content of at least 7.2 wt %, and the admixture remains stable, non-precipitated for at least 60 days. A method of spraying an agricultural admixture involves admixing the aforementioned admixture with one or more agricultural chemicals and spraying the admixture, where the admixture remains stable, non-precipitated for at least 60 days. A method of producing an agricultural admixture involves admixing the aforementioned admixture with one or more agricultural chemicals, where the admixture remains stable, non-precipitated for at least 60 days.

  • Patent number: 10150100
    Abstract: The present invention provides for a device for reducing a volatile organic compound (VOC) content of a gas comprising a manganese oxide (MnOx) catalyst. The manganese oxide (MnOx) catalyst is capable of catalyzing formaldehyde at room temperature, with complete conversion, to CO2 and water vapor. The manganese oxide (MnOx) catalyst itself is not consumed by the reaction of formaldehyde into CO2 and water vapor. The present invention also provides for a device for reducing or removing a particle, a VOC and/or ozone from a gas comprising an activated carbon filter (ACF) on a media that is capable of being periodically regenerated.

  • Publication number: 20140262837
    Abstract: The present invention provides for a device for detecting one or more target gas compounds, such as a volatile organic compound, such as formaldehyde, comprising a chamber comprising a gas inlet and a gas outlet, wherein the chamber is capable of absorbing one or more non-target gas compounds. When the device is in use, the gas outlet is in fluid communication with a detector capable of detecting the amount or concentration of the one or more target gas compounds.
