Spirally wound electric double layer capacitor devices are generally disclosed. In some embodiments, the spirally wound electric double layer capacitor device is configured so that fluid being treated flows in an axial direction through the device.

Spirally wound electric double layer capacitor device and associated methods

This invention describes a capacitor that formed by a charge or species specific membrane material filled with aqueous or non-aqueous liquid with soluble salts dissolved and non-dissolved in solution and contained within the membrane material. When charged, the oppositely charged ion will leave the structure, leaving behind a charged atomic capacitor.

Atomic capacitor

This invention relates to an electric double layer capacitor electrochemical cylinder () made up of concentric layers of capacitors (), current collectors (), ion specific membranes () and dielectric spacer () wrapped around an inner support tube () that can be used as a high capacitance capacitor and to remove dissolved solids from a liquid stream such as water, acid, aqueous or non-aqueous.

Concentric layer electric double layer capacitor cylinder, system, and method of use

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods by which lead from spent lead-acid batteries may be extracted, purified, and used in the production of new lead-acid batteries. The system includes a first phase separation device configured to: receive the first mixture from the basic lead stream digestion device, isolate a liquid component from one or more insoluble components of the first mixture, and output the liquid component. The system also includes a lead salt precipitation device configured to: receive and mix the liquid component and a carboxylate source to form a second mixture including a lead salt precipitate, and output the second mixture. The system further includes a second phase separation device configured to: receive the second mixture from the lead salt precipitation device, isolate the liquid component from the lead salt precipitate of the second mixture, and output the lead salt precipitate.

Systems and methods for purifying and recycling lead from spent lead-acid batteries

The present disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for recycling lead-acid batteries, and more specifically, relates to systems and methods for selectively separating and separately processing portions of lead-acid batteries to improve efficiency and reduce costs. A lead-acid battery processing system includes an imaging system configured to perform imaging of a lead-acid battery and perform image analysis to determine a break point that divides top lead from a remainder of the lead content of the lead-acid battery. The system also includes a battery breaking device configured to break the lead-acid battery at the determined break point and separate the lead-acid battery into a first portion, which includes the top lead, from a second portion, which includes the remainder of the lead content, for separate processing of the first and second portions of the lead-acid battery.

Systems and methods for selectively separating and separately processing portions of lead-acid batteries

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods by which lead from spent lead-acid batteries may be extracted, purified, and used in the construction of new lead-acid batteries. A method includes forming a first mixture in a first vessel, wherein the first mixture includes a lead-bearing material and a carboxylate source, which react to precipitate lead salt particles. The method includes separating a portion of the first mixture from a remainder of the first mixture, wherein the portion includes lead salt particles having specific densities below a specific density threshold value and/or having particle sizes below a particle size threshold value. The method includes forming a second mixture in a second vessel, wherein the second mixture includes the lead salt particles from the separated portion of the first mixture. The method further includes separating the lead salt particles of the second mixture from a liquid component of the second mixture.

Systems and methods for isolating a particulate product when recycling lead from spent lead-acid batteries

A high tensile strength, highly conductive flexible composite sheet consisting of fibrillated PTFE polymers, performance enhancing dopants, and carbon particles useful in electrochemical devices such as flow through capacitors, capacitive deionization, electronic water purification, fuel cells, capacitors, super-capacitors and a method of preparation. The method consists of mixing the materials and calendering to the desired thickness and strength all at room temperature and leaving the material in a wet state without further drying.
