20100181799 | DRAG REDUCING APPARATUS FOR A VEHICLE - The disclosure comprises a pair of inflatable substantially inelastic lobes. A single lobe can be mounted on each of the rear trailer doors of a standard tractor-trailer unit. Each lobe can be inflated or deployed to provide an aerodynamic substantially planar contour extending rearwardly of the rear end of the vehicle. The aerodynamic shape of the lobes with stable and substantially planar external surfaces for air to pass over can be created by a series of internal cords and flag sets extending substantially horizontally and vertically in an array from one side of the lobe to the other side of each lobe. When the lobes are deflated, the trailer doors can be opened and latched to the side of the trailer in a conventional manner. | 07-22-2010 |

20100034732 | Hydrogen production method - A method of producing hydrogen is provided that includes exposing a hydrogen-extracting (H-x) material to water, where the H-x material includes a crystal structure having interstitial space available for the insertion of protons and the water can be liquid water or vapor water. A spontaneous electrochemical reaction occurs, whereby water chemically decomposes in contact with the H-x material, the resulting hydrogen is stored in the H-x material and the resulting oxygen is emitted as a gas. This reaction proceeds until it is limited by a hydrogen loading capacity of the H-x material and/or the electrochemical potential of the H-x material relative to the water. The H-x material is heated to recover the stored hydrogen in a temperature range of 20 to 1000 degrees Celsius. This process is reversible, as it can be repeated many times. No electricity or consumable chemicals are required. | 02-11-2010 |

20110117001 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOVING SULFUR-CONTAINING CONTAMINANTS FROM INDOOR AIR - A system and method for removing sulfur-containing contaminants from indoor air includes a panel system having a first layer and a second layer. The first layer can include a base media onto which sodium bicarbonate is attached. The second layer can include a base media onto which activated carbon is attached. Indoor air including sulfur-containing contaminants can contact and pass through the first layer. Sulfuric acid can react with the sodium bicarbonate to produce sodium sulfate, which can, in turn, act as a drying agent for organic sulfur-containing contaminants in the indoor air, such as carbon disulfide and carbonyl sulfide. As a result of such drying, the second layer can more effectively trap and/or bind (adsorb) the organic sulfur-containing contaminants so that these contaminants are removed from the contaminated air. The treated air can be returned to an indoor space of the structure. | 05-19-2011 |
