NIST Launches First Zero-Energy Photovoltaic Residential Test Base

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently demonstrated the first zero-energy residential test facility in the Gaithersburg, Maryland, campus. The Institute invited local, federal and state government officials to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony to commemorate this special moment.

The Institute hopes that this base, which uses solar photovoltaic power generation and solar hot water systems, will develop self-sufficient housing for the future American housing industry. The base will also be used to test a variety of energy-saving technologies and ultimately help commercialize cutting-edge clean energy technologies.

According to Design Build Solar, in the short term, the base will be used to study self-sufficient family homes. The building looks like a standard American home, with two bedrooms and four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the United States will use computer simulations and mechanical controls to imitate the activities of a family of four over a period of one year. The building will switch electrical and lighting equipment at scheduled times. All energy will come directly from the house itself.

The test site was financed by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and was designed and developed jointly by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology and the US Department of Energy, a construction consulting firm: American Architecture Planning and Building Sciences.

1. Product introduction

   PSA(Pressure Swing Adsorption) coal column Activated Carbon with high quality anthracite as raw material, advanced technology and refined processing, the appearance is cylindrical black particles. It has reasonable pore structure, good adsorption properties, high mechanical strength, easy regeneration and low cost characteristics.


2. Application

a. PSA coal column activated carbon widely used in drinking water, industrial water and wastewater, and gas phase adsorption, purification of industrial water such as power plants, petrochemical, refinery, food and beverage, sugar liquor, medicine, electronics, fish, sea water purification and other industries. It also can effectively adsorb free chlorophenols, sulfur and other organic pollution, particularly mutagens (THM) to get the precursors of purification.

b. PSA coal column activated carbon used for industrial gas purification, gas desulfurization, catalytic reforming of petroleum, gas separation, pressure swing adsorption, air drying, food preservation, gas masks, media carrier solution, such as industrial solvent filtration, purification and decolorization, separation, gas purification, purification; organic solvent recovery;

c. PSA coal column activated carbon used in food, beverages, purified water filtration, power plant boiler wastewater treatment, domestic water and industrial water dechlorination. In addition to odor and liquid filtration, environmental protection widely used the activated carbon, which can effectively remove water phenol, mercury, lead, arsenic, heavy metals and other harmful substances.

d. PSA coal column activated carbon used in rooms and furniture: effective adsorption  formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, ammonia and radon and other toxic gases in new living rooms and new furniture; the rapid elimination of decoration odor. Uniform adjustment of space humidity.


3. Adsorption purification principle and process

   PSA coal column activated carbon is black cylindrical particles; Physical, chemical properties analysis of carbon is a porous carbon, the highly developed pore structure makes it has large surface area, so it is easy to full contact the toxic and harmful gases in the air (and harmful impurities). This highly developed pore structures--- - capillary constitutes a powerful adsorption force field, which gives unique adsorption properties for activated carbon.

4. Transportation and Packing

   Woven bag, lined with plastic film bags, each 25kg can also be packaged according to customer demand. The product should be placed in a cool and dry place during storage; When transportation, it prevents to mixed with hard materials, to prevent carbon particles broken that affecting the quality of packaging, to prevent breakage. To avoid leakage or mixed with debris; to avoid water, oil and fire.
