摘要:
A novel method for improving water recovery from desalination systems by the removal of cations and/or anions using ion exchange (IX) technology. The system described herein is particularly useful for water recovery in brackish ecosystems and is unique in that important features include recycling, regeneration, and recovery of key components, thereby reducing costs and waste products.

A filter system with a deep bed filter of microbeads is provided. The filter system may include a mixed bed trickling filter that utilizes microbeads as a high specific surface area media for biofiltration, capture of fine particulate solids, as well as degassing and oxygenating. Mixing devices, such as mechanical stirrers, axial flow pumps, airlift pumps or helical screws, may be integrated to enhance the mixing of the bed and to prevent clogging. Degassing or oxygenating process may be integrated within the microbead filter to introduce or withdraw gases in the bed. In a particular embodiment, the filter system includes serial distribution plates, which support multi-layered beds that create separate chambers in a filter vessel. Degassing or oxygenation process may be integrated within each microbead filter chamber.

An improved aquaculture system is provided which, in various embodiments, utilizes a single integrated unit to perform the biologic filtering, aeration and degassing functions; has a fish tank with an integrated multiphase drain for removal of fecal solids and uneaten feed with minimum water loss, for removing most of the water from the tank to be processed and returned to the tank and for segregating and for then selectively removing moribund and dead fish from the tank, preventing their cannibalization by other fish in the tank; and a single integrated unit for performing degassing, aeration, gas concentration and reaction/separation functions. An improved biologic filter is also discussed.
