*** 9801248 Zamansky This Phase II SBIR project continues research on utilizing the Photo-catalytic Reactor-Filters (PRF) for effective VOC (volatile organic compounds) and PM (particulate material) removal from gas streams before discharging them to the atmosphere. An economic analysis and testing in a small catalytic reactor were performed in the Phase I study. Phase I confirmed that the PRF system is economically and technically feasible and can achieve high efficiency VOC control. The overall objective of the Phase II program is to develop information and know how to move the technology to the full scale demonstration, Phase III. The Phase II program will be conducted over a two year period and will culminate in development of a conceptual full scale design. The first year Phase II technical goal will be to design and construct a research prototype, prepare and characterize the catalysts, and start the test program. Two potential applications were selected for optimization: removal of VOC/PM emissions from pulp and paper and dry cleaning industries. The second year goal will be to complete the test program and engineering design and economic studies. Phase II will demonstrate that above 90% VOC control levels can be achieved with effective removal of fine particles in an environmentally safe manner for sigificantly lower cost when compared to commercial VOC control technologies. Potential applications of' the PRF system include chemical manufacturing, organic chemicals processes, semi-conductor manufacturing, petroleum refining, combustion systems, pulp and paper industry, dry cleaning, treatment of VOCs stripped from industrial waste waters, etc., all of which have off-gas streams that contain chlorinated or non-chlorinated VOCs. The process has the potential to be widely used for VOC and particulate removal from air and industrial gases. ***

*** 9801248 Zamansky 该二期 SBIR 项目继续研究利用光催化反应器过滤器 (PRF) 在将气流排放到大气中之前有效去除气流中的 VOC（挥发性有机化合物）和 PM（颗粒物质）。 第一阶段研究在小型催化反应器中进行了经济分析和测试。 一期工程证实PRF系统在经济和技术上都是可行的，可以实现高效的VOC控制。 第二阶段计划的总体目标是开发信息并了解如何将该技术推向全面示范，即第三阶段。 第二阶段计划将持续两年，最终将开发出全面的概念设计。 第一年第二阶段的技术目标将是设计和建造研究原型，制备和表征催化剂，并启动测试计划。 选择了两个潜在的应用进行优化：去除制浆造纸和干洗行业的 VOC/PM 排放。 第二年的目标是完成测试计划以及工程设计和经济研究。 第二阶段将证明，与商业 VOC 控制技术相比，通过以环境安全的方式有效去除细颗粒，可以实现 90% 以上的 VOC 控制水平，且成本显着降低。 PRF系统的潜在应用包括化学制造、有机化学品加工、半导体制造、石油精炼、燃烧系统、纸浆和造纸工业、干洗、从工业废水中剥离的VOC的处理等，所有这些都具有含有氯化或非氯化 VOC 的废气流。 该工艺有可能广泛用于去除空气和工业气体中的挥发性有机化合物和颗粒物。 ***
