摘要:
A water collection device for collecting clarified water in a basin. The collection device includes a floating ring having a water inlet recessed within the central portion of the floating ring. The water collection device is configured to facilitate a greater flow of water into the water inlet from one peripheral zone than another peripheral area or zone around the floating ring.

The invention concerns a method for treating water particularly in order to decrease its iron, manganese and arsenic content. The invention is characterized in that it comprises at least one step which consists in causing the water to pass on at least a bed of filtering material (3) comprising a combination: of at least one finely-divided material based on iron in hydroxide or oxide state or in metallic state in the form of particles of dimensions ranging between 0.3 and 2 mm, of manganese dioxide grains having a bulk specific gravity of the order of 2 and a hardness higher than 6 on the Mohs scale.

A water treatment system comprising a separable water treatment component and a host water treatment apparatus is described. The component is useable in the host apparatus, and has an electronic circuit which is adapted to co-operate with an electronic circuit in the host apparatus. In typical operation, the electronic circuit of the component includes at least a data tag, and the presence of the data tag is identified by the electronic circuit of the host apparatus upon correct fitment and/or installation of the component, which creates a two-way communication protocol. The host apparatus can then upload relevant data from the data tag, etc., and the component's circuit can download the relevant information from the host apparatus. The present invention provides the benefits of electrical co-operation and data tagging.

A method for decreasing the dissolved oxygen content in water used for extracting oil from rocks includes directing water and gas into a housing containing at least one hydrophobic membrane such that the water contacts only a first surface of the membrane and the gas contacts only a second surface of the membrane. The pressure of the gas is decreased thereby causing the oxygen in the water to pass through the first side of the membrane to the second side of the membrane and mix with the gas. A system for decreasing the dissolved oxygen content in water used for extracting oil from rocks includes a plurality of membrane modules. Each module contains at least one hydrophobic membrane. A water supply inlet and a gas supply inlet direct water over the first and second surface respectively of each of the hydrophobic membranes. A water outlet and a gas outlet direct water and gas respectively out of the plurality of membrane modules.

摘要:
A method for treating wastewater using a ballasted flocculation technique includes continuously measuring the concentration of suspended solids, organic matter or other impurities in the water to be treated prior to directing the water to be treated to a flocculation tank. Based on this measurement, the amount of ballast necessary to obtain treated water of a predetermined quality is then calculated. In the flocculation tank, ballast and a flocculating reagent are added to the water to form a water-floc mixture. The water-floc mixture is directed to a settling tank where a sludge-ballast mixture is settled. The sludge-ballast mixture is directed to a mixing tank and then to a separator to separate the ballast from the sludge. The separated ballast is directed to the flocculation tank. The separated sludge is directed to the mixing tank when the level of sludge-ballast mixture in the mixing tank is lower than a predetermined level.

An aerating device for a water treatment system includes an upper and lower chamber separated by a partition. The upper chamber includes a plurality of immersed membranes for removing contaminants from the water. The lower chamber includes a gas inlet and a water inlet for directing gas and water to be treated respectively into the lower chamber. The water inlet is disposed at a lower depth in the lower chamber than the gas inlet. A plurality of air dispersers extend through the partition from the lower chamber to the upper chamber for directing gas from the lower chamber to the upper chamber to aerate the immersed membranes. Finally, the device includes at least one passageway extending through the partition from the lower chamber to the upper chamber for directing water to be treated from the lower chamber to the upper chamber.

The invention relates to an electrokinetic method for determining the electrostatic charge state of a porous membrane during filtering by measuring trans-membrane variations of a flow potential. The use of the inventive method for controlling and characterising the filtering membrane cleaning efficiency is also disclosed.

An ultraviolet water treatment system is provided for treating water moving through a treatment area in a direction D. The system includes a series of ultraviolet modules disposed in side-by-side relationship in the treatment area. Each module includes an ultraviolet lamp and a pair of vertical supports with one support of each module being deemed an upstream support and one support being deemed a downstream support. The upstream supports of the respective modules are non-aligned and at least two of the upstream supports are staggered in the direction D and lie generally in separate transverse planes with respect to direction D.
