Abstract

A process for delivering and/or removing metal from a biological system by loading a titanate sorbent with a biometal either before introduction into the system for delivery to a site within the system or after introduction into the system for delivery to a site where there is an excess accumulation of metal and thereafter the sorbent is loaded at the site with the excess metal and is removed from the system.

Radiological/biological/aerosol removal system

Patent Haslam, Jeffery J

An air filter replacement system for existing buildings, vehicles, arenas, and other enclosed airspaces includes a replacement air filter for replacing a standard air filter. The replacement air filter has dimensions and air flow specifications that allow it to replace the standard air filter. The replacement air filter includes a filter material that removes radiological or biological or aerosol particles.

Biologically-based signal processing system applied to noise removal for signal extraction

Patent Fu, Chi Yung; Petrich, Loren I.

The method and system described herein use a biologically-based signal processing system for noise removal for signal extraction. A wavelet transform may be used in conjunction with a neural network to imitate a biological system. The neural network may be trained using ideal data derived from physical principles or noiseless signals to determine to remove noise from the signal.

Extraction process for removing metallic impurities from alkalide metals

Patent Royer, Lamar T [Knoxville, TN]

A development is described for removing metallic impurities from alkali metals by employing an extraction process wherein the metallic impurities are extracted from a molten alkali metal into molten lithium metal due to the immiscibility of the alkali metals in lithium and the miscibility of the metallic contaminants or impurities in the lithium. The purified alkali metal may be readily separated from the contaminant-containing lithium metal by simple decanting due to the differences in densities and melting temperatures of the alkali metals as compared to lithium.

In-situ method to remove iron and other metals from solution in groundwater down gradient from permeable reactive barrier

Patent Carpenter, Clay E [Grand Junction, CO]; Morrison, Stanley J [Grand Junction, CO]

This invention is directed to a process for treating the flow of anaerobic groundwater through an aquifer with a primary treatment media, preferably iron, and then passing the treated groundwater through a second porous media though which an oxygenated gas is passed in order to oxygenate the dissolved primary treatment material and convert it into an insoluble material thereby removing the dissolved primary treatment material from the groundwater.
