Abstract: A water filter unit for purifying water fed to the water filter unit. The unit includes a containment defined by a wall section, first and second end sections, wherein the wall section is attached to the first end section and the second end section; a water inlet arranged in the first or second end section through which the water is fed into the containment; a filter membrane arranged in the containment such that at least part of the water is fed through the filter membrane; and a first water outlet for filtered water from the membrane. The unit further includes an injector pump arranged to create an increased flow velocity trough the injector pump of the water fed to the filter membrane, and the injector pump is furthermore arranged to receive unfiltered water not fed through the membrane and recirculate the unfiltered water within the containment.

Abstract: A system includes a product having one or more active membranes for transporting liquid by aid of an electric field. A humidity sensor provides information about wetting or moisture conditions near the active membrane. An electronic control circuit is designed to provide a voltage to the active membrane only when a certain humidity level is detected. An external electronic device provides an interface between a user and the product, wherein the interface includes a display to allow monitoring of the functions of the product.

Abstract: Described herein are apparatuses and methods for preventing or otherwise reducing scaling and fouling of a membrane using ultrasonic vibrations. One example method involves: (1) directing a solution to a membrane of a membrane assembly, where the membrane passes a solvent of the solution through the membrane at a first rate, and where the membrane prevents at least some of a solute of the solution from passing through the membrane; and (2) causing a piezoelectric material that is physically coupled to the membrane to produce ultrasonic waves directed at the membrane, where the ultrasonic waves induce oscillations in at least a portion of the membrane and thereby the solvent of the solution passes through the membrane at a second rate that is greater than the first rate.
