A portable electric appliance (1, 23) such as a hand held hair dryer uses a brushless electric motor (13, 25) in combination with a secondary fan assembly (14) and/or an air scoop (24) to redirect air toward the motor (13, 25), to maintain a cool operating temperature. The appliance includes a control circuit (50, 80, 94, 102, 110) for controlling the brushless motor (13, 25) and other appliance features. The control circuit and the coil windings (21) of the brushless electric motor are designed to run the appliance at a relatively low current to accommodate a higher operating voltage, thereby operating at a low wattage for reducing extraneous or waste heat. This facilitates placement of the control circuit in a small, portable appliance, and may enhance operation of the appliance in certain modes such as a hair dryer “cool shot.”

Solid metal ammine complexes are applied for safe and high-density storage of ammonia to be released for use as reducing agent in selective catalytic reduction of NO_x in exhaust gases. The compositional formula of the metal ammine complexes is M(NH₃)_nX_z, where M^Z+ represents one or more metal ions capable of binding ammonia, X represents one or more anions, n is the coordination number (from 2 to 12), and z the valency of the metal ion (and thus the total number of compensating anion charges). Ammonia is released by generating a reduced gas-phase pressure of ammonia inside the container, which is below the equilibrium desorption pressure of ammonia at the operating temperature of the storage material thus enabling the unit to be operated is a safe manner with lower operating temperature and pressure.

A diaphragm valve includes a heating body that thermally contacts a valve body of the valve and extends proximal to a diaphragm of the valve opposite a valve passage through which medium flows. The heating body forms a thermally conductive pathway between the valve body and the diaphragm that facilitates maintaining an operating temperature at the diaphragm. When used in an atomic layer deposition (ALD) system, the diaphragm valve inhibits condensation or freezing of high-temperature ALD precursor gases in the valve passage. A plunger including thermally insulating features preferably extends through a central opening in the heating body to operably couple a valve actuator to the diaphragm. In some embodiments, a thermally resistive member may be interposed between the valve passage and the actuator for attenuating heat transfer between the valve passage and the actuator.

A method and apparatus for controlling the electrical power applied to an electrically driven oxygen separation device having one or more composite membrane elements to separate oxygen from an oxygen containing feed. The composite membrane elements have a resistance increasing during the operation thereof that would act to reduce oxygen output if applied voltage were held constant. In order to increase the time interval for renewing the composite membrane elements, the electrical potential difference is controlled such that the electric current drawn by the elements remains at a substantially constant level by increasing the electrical potential difference as the resistance increases until a predetermined voltage level is reached. Once this level is obtained, the electrical potential difference is maintained at a constant level and the electric current being drawn and the oxygen output is allowed to decay to a predetermined low level after which the element or elements are replaced.
