Low-volume air sampler A low-volume air sampler is an apparatus having a suction capacity of up to 201/min. It is used for one continuous sampling lasting from several days to 1 week. Filter papers having a diameter of 5 cm and an active-carbon cartridge can be attached as a collecting device.

Activated carbon cartridges are opened after the sparging operation and the front and back portions of the carbon are transferred into vials equipped with Mininert valve seal. One milliliter of carbon disulfide is introduced through the septum by means of a syringe (to prevent losses of volatiles due to heat of adsorption). The vials are allowed to stand at room temperature for 30 min with periodic shaking. A 1-/JL aliquot is withdrawn and injected into the gas chromatograph. 

Our group recently reported iodinated polyurethane (IPU) sponges. The IPU sponges were coated with ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), to release iodine in a controlled rate for water decontamination combined with active carbon cartridge, which adsorbs the iodine residues after the microbial inactivation. Controlled and stable iodine release was observed with the EVA-coated IPU sponges and was effective in deactivating the bacteria and virus present in the contaminated water (Figure 8.12). Thus, these iodinated... 

This type of chemical fume hood does not duct the air flow to outside the laboratory, but rather the air flow is returned to the room or interstitial space after passing through a means to remove contaminants. The contaminants may be removed by HEPA filters, activated carbon cartridges, adsorbents, or catalyst beds. The means of contaminant removal must be inspected and serviced at regular intervals. 

For anything larger than the single tap, a packaged plant can be suppUed, with filter and activated carbon cartridges, probably in duplex format, enabling easy removal for cleaifing or replacement. 

Treatment technology Cartridge filtration, activated carbon (oil removal), activated sludge sedimentation. 

Abstract To design an adsorption cartridge, it is necessary to be able to predict the service life as a function of several parameters. This prediction needs a model of the breakthrough curve of the toxic from the activated carbon bed. The most popular equation is the Wheeler-Jonas equation. We study the properties of this equation and show that it satisfies the constant pattern behaviour of travelling adsorption fronts. We compare this equation with other models of chemical engineering, mainly the linear driving force (LDF) approximation. It is shown that the different models lead to a different service life. And thus it is very important to choose the proper model. The LDF model has more physical significance and is recommended in combination with Dubinin-Radushkevitch (DR) isotherm even if no analytical solution exists. A numerical solution of the system equation must be used. 

After treatment, water is passed through a sand filter followed by an activated carbon filter to remove traces of chlorine, and then through a polishing filter (usually a cartridge filter of pore size <10 pm). 

Polynuclear aromatics in the effluent were determined by hexane extraction and ultraviolet absorption of the concentrated extract. Benzene and the other low boiling organics were analyzed by vapor phase (Nz) partitioning and gas chromatography, Suspended solids which are not shown in this data were in the 100-200 mg/1 range. A cartridge filter will reduce the solids to the 50 mg/1 usually specified by producers of activated carbon very easily. 

As the filter paper is incapable of sampling the volatile radioactivities such as iodine, activated carbon is used for the sampling of such radioactivities. Filter paper impregnated with activated carbon and a cartridge filled with layers of activated carbon granules are available. 

Microfilters use membranes with pores in the 0.1-1 pm range. They can filter out particles of dust, activated carbon, and ion exchange resin fines, and most microorganisms. Microfilters require low differential pressures (5-20 psi) and are available both as normal flow ( dead end ) and crossflow configurations. In pharmaceutical water purification systems, they are often used as disposable cartridge filters after activated carbon filters, softeners, and ion exchange beds. 

Nitropropane may be decomposed by the activated carbon used in cartridge respirator filters do not use this kind of respirator if high vapor concentrations are present. On small fires, use dry chemical powder (such as Purple-K-Powder), foam, or COj extinguishers.
