Abstract: There is provided a sample preconcentrator. The sample preconcentrator in which a sample gas injection port is coupled to a dried gas supply source and a gas analysis system to concentrate a sample gas comprises a sample concentrating unit containing an absorbent that is composed of carbon nanotube-metal nanocomplex; a conduit switching valve for selectively coupling the sample gas injection port to the dried gas supply source and the gas analysis system and controlling the absorption and desorption of the sample gas from the sample concentrating unit; and a plurality of conduits for connecting the sample gas injection port, the dried gas supply source, the gas analysis system, the sample concentrating unit and the conduit switching valve.

Abstract: A device for effectively removing organic compounds from air by a carbon nanotube-catalyst composite having the two functions of an adsorption/catalytic incineration agent is provided. The carbon nanotube-catalyst composite simultaneously adsorbs the organic compounds and completely decomposes them by a catalytic reaction, and the optimal reaction active temperature by catalytic incineration is low. The carbon nanotube-catalyst composite has a large surface area and has high adsorption performance and catalytic decomposition activity, and is thus applicable to filters that use the methods of adsorption and/or catalytic incineration. The device for removing organic compounds from air includes an adsorption/catalytic incineration reactor including the carbon nanotube-catalyst composite to remove organic compounds from air.
