Use of physical vapor deposition methodologies to deposit nanoscale gold on activating support media makes the use of catalytically active gold dramatically easier and opens the door to significant improvements associated with developing, making, and using gold-based, catalytic systems. The present invention, therefore, relates to novel features, ingredients, and formulations of gold-based, heterogeneous catalyst systems generally comprising nanoscale gold deposited onto a nanoporous support.

Fire prevention and suppression systems and breathable fire-extinguishing compositions are provided for rooms, houses and buildings, transportation tunnels and vehicles, underground and underwater facilities, marine vessels, submarines, passenger and military aircraft, space stations and vehicles, military installations and vehicles, and all other human occupied objects and facilities. The system provides a breathable hypoxic fire-preventative atmosphere at standard atmospheric or local ambient pressure. The system employs an oxygen-extraction apparatus supplying oxygen-depleted air inside a human-occupied area or storing it in a high-pressure container for use in case of fire. A breathable fire-extinguishing composition is introduced for constant fire-preventive environments, being mostly a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen and having oxygen content ranging from 12% to 17%. A fire-suppression system is provided employing a fire-extinguishing composition with oxygen concentration under 16%, so when released it creates a breathable fire-suppressive atmosphere having oxygen concentration of approximately 16% (or lower if needed) with possible addition of carbon dioxide. A technology for automatically maintaining a breathable fire-preventive composition on board a human-occupied hermetic object is provided by introducing inert ballast that automatically maintains oxygen content under the Hypoxic Threshold. An aircraft fire prevention and suppression systems are provided utilizing hypoxic fire extinguishing compositions for producing breathable atmosphere onboard having fire-retarding properties.

A method for treating a recirculating water system which comprises introducing into said water system a multifunctional, multilayer tablet, wherein the multilayer tablet comprises a fast dissolving layer and a slow dissolving layer, wherein said fast dissolving layer releases a combination of active ingredients including a member selected from the group consisting of lithium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite, trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA), anhydrous sodium dichloroisocyanurate, sodium persulfate, potassium persulfate, potassium monopersulfate, sodium monopersulfate, and mixtures thereof, and at least one of a clarifier, chelating agent, sequesterant, algaestat, water softener, algaecide, corrosion inhibitor, scale inhibitor, flocculent, disintegrant, dispersant, colorant, dissolution control agent, fragrance, or surfactant and, wherein said slow dissolving layer includes a member selected from the group consisting of trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA), calcium hypochlorite, 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DCDMH), 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH), 1-bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (BCDMH), 1,3-dichloro-5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin (DCEMH), 1,3-dibromo-5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin (DBEMH), 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-5-ethylhydantoin (BCEMH), and mixtures thereof, and at least one of a clarifier, chelating agent, sequesterant, algaestat, water softener, algaecide, corrosion inhibitor, scale inhibitor, flocculent, disintegrant, dispersant, colorant, dissolution control agent or surfactant.

The invention discloses a fire extinguishing composition for generating a fire extinguishing substance through chemical reaction among components at high temperature, which is characterized by comprising the following components in percentage by mass: 50 to 90 percent of flame retardant, 5 to 30 percent of oxidant, 5 to 10 percent of reducing agent and 0 to 10 percent of adhesive. During use, smoke and fire agents are taken as a heat source and power source, and by igniting the smoke and fire agents and utilizing the high temperature through combustion of the smoke and fire agents, the oxidant and the reducing agent in the fire extinguishing composition are reacted to generate an active fire extinguishing substance for extinguishing fire. Different from the traditional aerosol generating agent, the fire extinguishing composition does not need an external heat source, and does not combust. Compared with the traditional aerosol generating agent, the fire extinguishing composition is more high-efficiency and more safe.

A breathing mask for breathing support devices (10) to guide the breathing support gas to the patient. The mask includes a mask body including a material that is permeable to air at least in partial areas. A gas guiding structure is provided which can be connected to suction openings of the breathing support device (10). The gas guiding structure extends through the interior of the mask body. The gas guiding structure for the transport / delivery of gas is limited partially by air-permeable areas of the wall of the mask body, through which ambient air can be drawn in. The mask is characterized by high wear comfort and improved safety against accidental coverage of the suction areas.

The use of pentafluoropropene (HFO-1225) and tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234) in refrigeration equipment is disclosed. These materials are generally useful as refrigerants for heating and cooling, as blowing agents, as aerosol propellants, as solvent composition, and as fire extinguishing and suppressing agents.

This invention relates to organic catalysts comprising iminium or oxaziridinium moieties, cleaning compositions comprising such catalysts; and processes for making and suing such catalysts and cleaning products.

Peracetic acid in aqueous liquid solution or vapor phase is prepared on-site and on-demand in a continuous process. Peracetic acid can be produced at a controlled rate to meet the demands of a downstream operation. In one embodiment, a pipe-line reactor and distillation column is used for the production of peracetic acid. In another embodiment, an apparatus includes a continuous pot reactor and distillation column for producing peracetic acid. The present invention has the potential of providing a much safer source of aqueous peracetic acid than currently available processes, due in part to the limited inventories of reactants in the reactor, particularly those in the vapor phase.

The present invention relates to compositions for use in refrigeration, air-conditioning, and heat pump systems wherein the composition comprises a fluoroolefin and at least one other component. The compositions of the present invention are useful in processes for producing cooling or heat, as heat transfer fluids, foam blowing agents, aerosol propellants, and fire suppression and fire extinguishing agents.
