Abstract:
An orbital wastewater treatment system includes a tank assembly, at least one impeller, a flow-diversion mechanism, an actuator, optionally at least one sensor disposed in the tank assembly, and a control unit. The tank assembly has an anoxic zone and an aerobic zone and passages between the two zones. The impeller is disposed in the tank assembly for aeration and for moving mixed liquor under process about the tank assembly. The flow-diversion mechanism is disposed at least one of the passages between the aerobic and the anoxic zone. The actuator is operatively connected to the gate for regulating the flow state or configuration thereof in response to a signal generated by the control unit at least partially pursuant to a predetermined schedule and/or at least partially in accordance with input from the sensor.
Abstract:
Reverse osmosis filtration systems that are self contained and easily converted from above the counter use to below the counter use. The systems feature a simple construction, including a two piece manifold assembly to which filters, including a reverse osmosis filter, a product water storage tank and a control valve connect, all without separate fasteners. The manifold assembly provides all water connections within the system, and includes connections to connect to a water supply, a drain, two dispensers and to an auxiliary water storage tank. The system pressurizes squeeze water for product water dispensing, providing maximum efficiency, maximum storage capacity for a given tank size and maximum pressure for dispensing product water. Various embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
A filter for aquarium operating in accordance with the lifting-lowering principle comprises a housing with at least one filter compartment for a filter material, a pump which aspirates water after passing through the filter compartment through a suction conduit and supplies the water back into an aquarium, at least one auxiliary chamber supplied with water and a float-controlled valve device controlling an outlet of the auxiliary chamber and communicating with the suction conduit, an auxiliary housing in which the auxiliary chamber is provided and supplied with water filtered after passing of the filter compartment in accordance with the principle of communicating pipes. A passage which is connected with the suction conduit has a valve opening which is alternatingly closeable and openable by a float-controlled valve closing member of the valve device. In another embodiment, a supply is formed as a passage which passes through the filter compartment and is sealed from the latter and opens in a bottom chamber provided in the housing under a lowermost one of the filter compartments, so that the aspiration of the supplied water is performed from below and from the bottom chamber through the filter compartment upwardly with accompanying filtering.
Abstract:
The invention relates to: a device for holding a filter pad for water purification; an activated carbon filter for purifying drinking water; a table water filter; a filter system; a method for purifying water; and use of a device with a received filter pad. The device comprises: a frame having a connecting portion for detachably connecting with an inlet container, a holding element arranged within the frame, and forming a receiving region for receiving a filter pad, the receiving region having a height in the direction of the flow direction and a diameter in a radial direction orthogonal to the flow direction, a pressing region for fixing the filter pad, wherein the pressing region is formed by a first pressing element of the holding element and a second pressing element, wherein the first pressing element and the second pressing element are designed and arranged to compress a filter pad.
Abstract:

A tank, A rotary filter arranged in the tank to carry out an aqueous effluent filtration operation, At least one UV lamp disposed in the tank so as to be immersed in the filtered aqueous effluent, At least one catalyst element arranged to be illuminated by the UV lamp and fixed in the tank so as to be immersed in the aqueous effluents and/or fixed on the rotary filter.
Abstract:
A modular distributed desalination system including a desalination buoy interconnected to a landside post-treatment station. The desalination buoy further includes a dynamic ballast system, a reverse osmosis system, an integral media filter, and intake screen, and a brine diffuser system.
Abstract:
A drinking water treatment system is disclosed. The system includes an ultraviolet (UV) light source and an adsorption medium positioned downstream of the UV light source. The UV light activates residual chlorine in water. The adsorption medium is configured to adsorb any remaining free chlorine from the water. Drinking water treatment systems are disclosed for point-of-use (POU) applications, such as tap-mounted countertop, under-counter, and/or commercial bottling applications, and for point-of-entry (POE).
Abstract:
A desalination system includes a desalination platform, a first skid disposed on a first deck of the desalination platform, the first skid including at least one of a first filtration unit configured to produce a first filtrate stream, and a first permeate unit configured to produce a first permeate stream, a first interconnecting pipework coupled to the first skid, and a first pipework support disposed on the first deck, wherein the first interconnecting pipework is disposed on the first pipework support.
Abstract:
A water purifier is provided. A water purifier according to one aspect of the present invention may include a housing having a first accommodation space therein, and made of a paper material; a water purifier faucet disposed in the first accommodation space to receive raw water and discharge purified water; and a filter coupled to the water purifier faucet to generate the purified water by filtering the raw water, wherein the water purifier faucet includes a base frame having a second accommodation space therein in which the filter is accommodated; a water inlet module provided on one side of the base frame to supply raw water introduced from the outside to the filter; and a water outlet module provided on the other side of the base frame to receive the purified water generated by the filter and discharge it to the outside.
Abstract:
A modular system for waste treatment, water recycling, and resource recovery includes a buffer tank to receive and pre-treat raw organic waste, at least one reactor tank configured as an anaerobic bioreactor that receives and digests pre-treated waste from the buffer tank, a membrane module having a membrane configured to filter waste from the digested waste from the at least one reactor tank to produce a permeate, a permeate collection tank configured to collect and store the permeate generated by the membrane module, a pump system having a plurality of pumps, and a control system configured to monitor the flow of waste and to control the pump system to control the flow of waste between the buffer tank, the at least one reactor tank, the membrane module, and the permeate collection tank.
