20100231911Circular Birefringence Refractometer: Method And Apparatus For Measuring Optical Activity - A system and method for detection and measurement of circular birefringences in materials, such as optically active (chiral) liquids and materials that exhibit the Faraday effect. The method and apparatus permit the detection of optical activities via the difference in the directions of propagation the left- and the right-circularly polarized light (components). A beam of light is directed at an interface formed by the optically active medium and another medium such that a difference in the angles of refraction and/or reflection and/or diffraction between the left- and the right-circularly polarized components of the light beam can be detected. The difference in the propagation directions between the two circularly polarized light components is measured on a position sensitive detector and/or is detected as an intensity difference. The circular birefringence in isotropic liquids is a measure of their optical purity (enantiomeric excess) and hence the invention presents a method and apparatus to measure chirality. The invention is thus related to optical rotation (polarimetric) measurements, but has the advantage that it does not depend on path-length traversed through the sample.09-16-2010

20090165649METHOD OF TREATING FLUID CONTAINING VAPOR PHASE METALS, VAPOR PHASE METAL COMPOUNDS, OR BOTH - Perlite, particularly, perlite in powdered form, is employed to adsorb metals and metal compounds from fluids, in particular gases at elevated temperature. In select embodiments, powdered perlite is treated to expand its surface area and injected into a fluid stream, such as flue gas, held for a specific retention period, and removed for subsequent disposal. In other embodiments powdered perlite is provided in an adsorption bed. Fluid containing metals or metal compounds in vapor form is permitted to pass through the adsorption bed until the expanded perlite powder is saturated (exhausted) with the metal and metal compounds adsorbed thereon. The perlite is then replaced, disposing of the exhausted perlite. Treatment of perlite by boiling with sulfuric acid or suspending in a suspension of sulfur in carbon disulfide has been shown to significantly expand the surface area of perlite, thus increasing the efficiency of the process.07-02-2009
