Adsorbents and inhalation devices
First Claim
1. An adsorbent cartridge suitable for adsorbing gas contaminants from a gas comprising a rolled or stacked extruded, ribbed sheet comprising a polymer and an adsorbent material selected from calcium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, molecular sieves, and activated carbon, wherein the ribs are integral to the sheet, wherein the ribs create channels for gas flow when the sheet is rolled or stacked without need of an external separator to create the channels, wherein the base sheet thickness is about 0.001 inches to 0.030 inches;
- and wherein no other supporting fabric or material is needed to maintain structural integrity of the ribbed sheet.

Abstract
An adsorbent is described. The adsorbent may include a membrane and an adsorbent material encapsulated within the membrane. An inhalation device is also described. The inhalation device may include a housing and a membrane within the housing. The membrane may encapsulate an adsorbent material. The membrane may be positioned such that airflow through the housing passes across but not through the membrane.
