Scavenging oxygen

A container (22) includes a shell (24) made from a polymer, for example PET, and incorporating a catalyst, for example a palladium catalyst. A closure (40) incorporates a plug which includes a source of hydrogen, for example a hydride. In use, with container (22) including a beverage and closure (40) in position, the headspace in the container will be saturated with water vapor. This vapor contacts the hydride associated with plug (42) and as a result the hydride produces molecular hydrogen which migrates into the polymer matrix of shell (24) and combines with oxygen which may have entered the container through its permeable walls. A reaction between the hydrogen and oxygen takes place, catalysed by the catalyst, and water is produced. Thus, oxygen which may ingress the container is scavenged and the contents of the container are protected from oxidation.

Container oxygen-scavenging apparatus and methods of use

An oxygen-scavenging apparatus is disclosed that can easily be applied by an end user to the bottom of a wine-bottle cork, or other food or beverage container that is sealed with a container-stopper device, such as a synthetic cork or a screw-type cap. The oxygen-scavenging apparatus is easily attachable and detachable, and relies on a friction-based fastener for its coupling to the container stopper. In some embodiments, the apparatus can serve a dual purpose by both scavenging oxygen and by absorbing moisture by using both oxygen-scavenging compound and desiccant material. The oxygen-scavenging apparatus is simple in design and thus relatively easy and cost-effective to manufacture.

A preservation device are used to preserve liquids and other items, such as foodstuffs, which spoil when exposed to oxygen for a period of time. The preservation devices are configured to form an air tight seal when disposed on a bottle and / or a vessel. The devices include a container, and disposed within the container is an oxygen absorber, which removes oxygen remaining in the bottle or vessel after it is sealed by the preservation device. Either the container or the oxygen absorber has a gas permeable, liquid impermeable membrane. The preservation device may also include a flow control mechanism that enables a liquid to be dispensed from the bottle without requiring the removal of the entire stopper device from the bottle. The preservation device may alternatively include an air channel system to control the flow of the liquid to be dispensed from the bottle without requiring the removal of the entire stopper device from the bottle. Such arrangements enable the liquid to be dispensed while only allowing a minimal amount of oxygen to enter the bottle, thus improving preservation.

Moisture absorbent scavenger and vacuum relief device for chemical containers

The invention is a vent for use with a container, such as commercial steel pails and drums, and a method for venting containers. The vent has a cap seal with one or more semipermeable membranes covering an orifice in the cap seal. The membrane prevents the passage of at least one atmospheric component, but allows the free passage of air. When a product is filled into the container at an elevated temperature and cools, a vacuum is formed within the container. The resulting vacuum opens a vacuum release device in the vent and pulls air through a hole in the cap seal, which is protected by a micro-porous membrane. The venting of air into the container relieves the vacuum without damage to the container or the product within the container.
