Abstract:
Carbon-mineral sorbents successfully combine a high mechanical resistance of the mineral matrix and a high activity of carbons. It is possible to prepare a mineral matrix of the wanted structure and use it as the basis for producing carbon-mineral sorbents. SUMS-1 and SUMS-2 are the sorbents of mild action. In other words, they cause no thrombosis, they do not absorb oxygen and protein from blood, and they have almost no destructive effect on the blood cells. The sorbents are highly effective in adsorbing microorganisms and their toxins. Treatment of patients with different diseases (sepsis, meningitis, bronchial asthma, tuberculosis, pneumonia, thyrotoxicosis, pancreatitis, liver coma, different types of poisoning) with the SUMS-1 and SUMS-2 has given satisfactory results.

Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...
