Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is related to a regeneration system for absorptive materials. In the invention, the thermal storage materials are used. It is aimed at regenerate the absorptive materials under a constant temperature for a sustainable period and recycling the unused thermal energy. When operate, the thermal energy is being absorbed and stored into the thermal storage materials. It is then transferred to kinetic energy for chemicals molecules which are resided in the pores of the absorptive materials. Subsequently, the released chemical molecules may be further be decomposed if it is an air cleaning device, or for other functional usage according to the design of the product.

BACKGROUND

For many years, absorptive and absorptive materials are employed to adsorb and absorb some target substance which may be either desirable or non-desirable to mankind. For example, molecular sieves, zeolites or activated carbon materials are employed to adsorb or absorb the volatile organic compounds out from the ambient environment, for the purpose of air cleaning. In another example, desiccant are used to absorbed water moisture from the environment. Most of these materials are regenerable and can be reused, upon regeneration.
Nevertheless, regeneration processes of these absorptive materials are usually energy consumption. Besides, the regeneration temperatures are usually hard to control. Background on regenerating the absorptive materials found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,348,362, a burner, which required huge amount of external energy, is employed for adsorbent carbon. During such regeneration processes, high temperature will also decompose and destroy the cellulose structure of the adsorbent carbon. In U.S. Pat. No. 4,343,765 employed an external ozone generator at the upstream position of the absorptive materials such as the support bed. Though, the adsorptive materials can be regenerated continuously, the method is not environmentally sound as power is consumed continuously.
In U.S. Pat. No. 5,968,235, the used adsorbent material is periodically regenerated with heated air. Stable temperature may not able to achieve for such regeneration, as the sources of heat are not described. In U.S. Pat. No. 6,033,638, the used adsorbent materials are regenerated by desorbing the VOCs and destroy it by combustion. Accumulation of VOCs at the downstream position and ignite it by combustion create potential fire hazard.
In U.S. Pat. No. 6,051,199, a rotar is used and continuous supply of oxygen is required for the continuous regeneration of the adsorbent materials. The regeneration method is not handy and economical viable since electricity is required for the continuous operation of this device. Moreover, the generation of oxygen gas is expensive.
In U.S. Pat. No. 6,121,179, contaminated adsorbent particles are regenerated in water at supercritical conditions. They are mixed in water prior to treatment. The mixture is then heated to a temperature at least about 482° C. and pressurized to a pressure sufficient to achieve supercritical conditions for water. The processes are clumsy, energy and time consuming, as a very high temperature and pressure are required.
In U.S. Pat. No. 6,358,374, an enclosure with fixed volume is created around the adsorbent bed. The adsorbent bed is heated to release the contaminants into the fixed volume and this process creates a high concentration of contaminants within the fixed volume. Deep UV irradiation at a wavelength 250 nm is employed for the decomposition of the contaminants. In this invention, potential hazard of leakage of contaminant would be induced, as high concentration of contaminant in a fixed volume is created.
In U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,605,132, 6,372,018, heating to a high temperature is required for the desorbing of the contaminant from the adsorptive materials. In most of this type of procedure, the regeneration rate varies, as the temperatures transfer to the adsorptive materials is not always constant.
Apart from this, the above-mentioned regeneration processes are not handy and must carried out under the present of complicated setup.
The context of the above patents is incorporated herein by reference for background.
In the present invention, thermal energy can be obtained by either through electrical power supply, or absorbed from the more heated surround, is stored into thermal stored materials, which have a desirable freezing point. It was then transfer to the treated absorptive/adsorptive materials. The chemical molecules adsorbed or absorbed in the absorptive or adsorptive materials are then released gradually at a constant temperature for a sustainable period of time. The setup is simple to perform, environmental clean. The device can be turn to operate in anywhere at anytime, even under the condition where the external heat sources, or power supplies are used up or extinct.
The present invention relates to a heat recycling system, which is capable to regenerate the absorptive materials at a sustainable period of time with the help of thermal storage materials.
In the system, wasted thermal energy is absorbed from the more heated surrounding and stored in some thermal storage materials, which the temperatures of fusion are the same as the regeneration temperatures of the absorptive materials. When the thermal storage materials are brought in contact with the absorptive materials and reach to the temperatures of fusion, i.e., the regeneration temperatures of the absorptive materials, the chemical molecules which previous adsorbed or absorbed will be released.
In another embodiment, the system may be modified such that the system contains photo catalytic oxidation materials (PCO). The released volatile organic compounds, which previously reside in the absorptive materials, will be released and be decomposed by the PCO materials.
In another embodiment, the system may recycle the unused thermal energy from a vehicle which it is parked outdoor. When parked outdoor, the thermal energy inside a vehicle is absorbed into a thermal storage materials and it is further transferred to the kinetic energy of the chemical molecules, which previously resided in the absorptive materials.
The inventions can be applied by integrating into a car air freshener system, air-cleaning device, zeolite regeneration oven, pharmaceutical treatment system, and other aroma-releasing system, odor removal device for rubbish bin located at outdoors. When used in an enclosed environment, the heat recycling system has an added on function of stabilizing the temperature of the environment during operating

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has the principal object of regenerating the absorptive materials by employing the thermal storage materials.
The present invention has a further object of maintaining a constant temperature for a sustainable period of time during regeneration of the absorptive materials.
The present invention has a further object of recycling the unwanted thermal energy.
The present invention has a further object of stabilizing temperature of the environment, when it is applied in an enclosed condition.
At the temperature of fusion, the thermal storage materials keep on absorbing thermal energy from the surround at a constant temperature until all the “solid phase” thermal storage materials is completely melted.
When in contact with the absorptive materials, the thermal energy from the thermal storage materials will be transferred to absorptive materials until all the “liquid phase” thermal storage materials crystallized. Energy is released in this process. The energy is then absorbed by the absorptive materials for regeneration.
The system can be integrated with solar cell. It can also be backed up with a heater equipped with an external power supply. It can also be equipped with a temperature loggers or timer, such that the regeneration condition can be viewed by the users. A fan, which helps to circulate the air around, can be installed together with a transparent enclosure containing coating of photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) materials. The chemical molecules released from the absorptive materials can be decomposed by the PCO materials immediately. Insulating materials wraps around the thermal storage materials can help to preserving the thermal energy for regeneration. However, it can be chosen to “to keep least contact with the thermal storage materials” when the thermal storage materials is absorbing thermal energy from the surround.
Heat energy is easily generated as a “side-product” when converting one form of energy to another. It can be economically viable if this “side-product” is wisely recycled. The present invention is an innovative technology related to the recycling of heat energy. It is of is of high commercial value as it can be applied in many products related to daily life.
It can be applied into quality personal and home care products such as air cleaning devices, which could be used in use in vehicle. There are abundant of unused thermal energy inside a vehicle when it is parked outdoor. This invention allows improving in-vehicle air quality while no input of extra energy is required.
The invention can be applied in medical therapy system or insecticide system; chemical molecules of the medicine or insecticide with pre-set value can be pre-absorbed into absorptive materials. They can be released gradually at a designed period of time for specific uses.
The invention can also be applied in some public facilities such as air cleaning device for public toilet, refuse collection point and even be integrated into the standalone rubbish bin.
It present invention is beneficial to fundamental scientific research and some manufacturing production line. Most chemical reaction can only be carried out at specific temperature conditions. Starting reagents can be pre-absorbed into absorptive materials. They are then released for reaction at a specific temperature for a sustainable period.
The invention combined the concepts of environmental protection and knowledge of frontier science. The invention is applicable in various fields and different products. By converting this invention into products, productivity and competitiveness enhancement will be the immediate beneficial outcomes.
