4 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising at least a second remote device in communication with the at least one sorbent recharger; the second remote device programmed to control at least one function necessary for the at least one sorbent recharger to recharge the sorbent material.

5 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising at least a second remote device and a second sorbent recharger; the second the second remote device programmed to control at least one function necessary for the second sorbent recharger to recharge a sorbent material in a second reusable sorbent module.

6 . The system of claim 5 , wherein each remote device is in communication with each sorbent recharger; wherein each remote device is programmed to control at least one function necessary for each sorbent recharge to recharge the sorbent material in each reusable sorbent module.

7 . A method performed by a remote device; the method comprising steps of:

establishing communication between the remote device and at least one sorbent recharger; and

controlling at least one function necessary for the at least one sorbent recharger to recharge a sorbent material in a reusable sorbent module.

8 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising the step of authenticating the sorbent recharger and transmitting remote device authentication information to the recharger.

9 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising the step of displaying data from the sorbent recharger on a display.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the data received from the sorbent recharger comprises one or more of: a recharge status, an alert, a request for action, and/or recharger configuration information.

11 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising the step of providing an audio and/or a haptic signal based on data received from the sorbent recharger.

12 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising the step of receiving data from a user and transmitting the data to the sorbent recharger.

13 . The method of claim 12 , the data from the user comprises at least one of: an action to recover an error on the sorbent recharger, an action to recover an alert from the sorbent recharger, an action to initiate a function in recharging the sorbent material, an action to stop recharging the sorbent material, an action to power off the sorbent recharger, an action to initiate one or more diagnostic tests, and/or an action to set or change one or more configuration parameters for the recharger.

14 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising the steps of:

establishing communication between the remote device and at least a second sorbent recharger; and

controlling at least one function necessary for the second sorbent recharger to recharge a sorbent material in a reusable sorbent module.

15 . A remote device; the remote device comprising a processor programmed to:

establish wireless communication with at least a first sorbent recharger; and

to control at least one function necessary for the sorbent recharger to recharge a sorbent material in a reusable sorbent module.

16 . The remote device of claim 15 , wherein the remote device is a wearable device.

17 . The remote device of claim 15 , the remote device programmed to communicate with the sorbent recharger via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi direct, or Zigbee.

18 . The remote device of claim 15 , further comprising a display, the remote device programmed to display data received from the sorbent recharger on the display.

19 . The remote device of claim 18 , wherein the remote device is programmed to receive one or more configuration parameters from the sorbent recharger and to display the one or more configuration parameters on the display.

20 . The remote device of claim 18 , wherein the data received from the sorbent recharger comprises recharge status, an alert, and/or a request for action.

21 . The remote device of claim 15 , further comprising an input, the remote device programmed to transmit data from the input to the sorbent recharger.

22 . The remote device of claim 21 , wherein the data from the input comprises at least one of: an action to recover an error on the sorbent recharger, an action to recover an alert from the sorbent recharger, an action to initiate a function in recharging the sorbent material, an action to stop recharging the sorbent material, an action to power off the sorbent recharger, an action to initiate one or more diagnostic tests, and/or an action to set or change one or more configuration parameters for the sorbent recharger.

23 . The remote device of claim 15 , the remote device programmed to establish wireless communication and control at least one function of at least a second sorbent recharger.

24 . The remote device of claim 15 , the remote device programmed to receive sorbent recharger authentication information from the sorbent recharger and to transmit remote device authentication information to the recharger.

25 . The remote device of claim 15 , the remote device programmed to provide an audio and/or a haptic signal based on data received from the sorbent recharger.

26 . The remote device of claim 25 , wherein the data received from the recharger comprises one or more alerts.
