Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compound (VOCs) Over Formulated Prechar

Photo-Catalytic Degradation of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) over Titanium Dioxide Thin Film

Are Some Fungal Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Mycotoxins?

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are carbon-compounds that easily evaporate at room temperature. Toxins are biologically produced poisons; mycotoxins are those toxins produced by microscopic fungi. All fungi emit blends of VOCs; the qualitative and quantitative composition of these volatile blends varies with the species of fungus and the environmental situation in which the fungus is grown. T...

Effect of vacuum regeneration of activated carbon on volatile organic compound adsorption

Vacuum swing adsorption (VSA) is a promising treatment method for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This study focuses on a VSA process for regenerating activated carbon spent with VOCs, and then investigates its adsorption capacities. Toluene was selected as the test VOC molecule, and the VSA regeneration experiments results were compared to the thermal swing adsorption (TSA) process. Cyclic ...

Volatile organic compound detection using nanostructured copolymers.

Regioregular polythiophene-based conductive copolymers with highly crystalline nanostructures are shown to hold considerable promise as the active layer in volatile organic compound (VOC) chemresistor sensors. While the regioregular polythiophene polymer chain provides a charge conduction path, its chemical sensing selectivity and sensitivity can be altered either by incorporating a second poly...
