A water purification apparatus for purifying water from a municipal water supply prior to a point of use has multiple water purification units including a carbon filter, a particle filter and an ultraviolet light source connected in series. The carbon filter removes free residual chlorine, the particle filter removes particles including carbon particles from the carbon filter, and the ultraviolet filter kills bacteria. A bypass conduit connected in parallel with the water purification units and valves permit system maintenance during which the water from the supply can flow directly to the point of use.

A method and apparatus for producing purified or ozone enriched air to remove contaminants from fluids is accomplished by exposing an air stream from a surrounding area to ozone generating ultra-violet (UV) radiation to generate ozone in a system ozone chamber. The ozone chamber is configured to reduce through-flow velocity and provide time for the ozone to mix with the air and oxidize contaminants. The air stream subsequently enters a germicidal chamber and is exposed to germicidal UV radiation to destroy bacteria and ozone in the air stream resulting in sterilized air. The radiation source may include an end-cap that interfaces guiding mechanisms to align the end-cap for power connections, and/or controls emission of ozone generating radiation to control production of ozone. Further, the system may include an additional germicidal chamber that exposes an air stream to germicidal radiation prior to treatment within the ozone chamber. Moreover, the system may be configured to include a baffling arrangement to control air through-flow velocity, or may be implemented by a cartridge arrangement, whereby a cartridge housing the chambers and radiation sources is periodically replaced. The system may further be configured for installation within a wall or ceiling, or may be utilized to remove contaminants from and/or ozonate liquids. In addition, the air sterilization systems may be utilized within air treatment systems to remove contaminants from an air stream within these systems.

This invention is capable of providing a water purifying apparatus with a comparatively simple configuration that can be used easily. First, a usage state is adopted by operating the knob of the faucet. In doing so, the detection means detects the flow of the water. As a result, the control unit supplies electricity to the ultraviolet light generator based on the detection signal form the detection means, and ultraviolet light is emitted. The emitted ultraviolet light then irradiates water within the passage. Water sterilization can then be carried out as a result of doing this. The ultraviolet light generator only generates light when the faucet is in use. It is therefore possible to utilize the ultraviolet light generator for long periods of time and savings are made with respect to power consumption. Further, a curving part is formed in the passage, and the ultraviolet light generator is arranged in the vicinity of the curving part. The time for which the water is irradiated with ultraviolet rays from the ultraviolet light generator is therefore made long, and the water purification efficiency is improved.

A system and method for treating standing fluid is disclosed. The disclosed method includes providing a radiation source such as an ultraviolet (UV) energy source submerged within a volume of standing fluid, such as in a tank or reservoir. The UV energy source is caused to emit a predetermined amount of UV or other radiation on a periodic basis to help purify the fluid. The amount of energy is sufficient to destroy pollutants in the standing fluid at least within a pre-determined distance of the UV energy source. According to one example, radiation energy may be emitted repetitively from a UV lamp for about one hour per each 24 hours repetitively.

An electromagnetic wave applying apparatus according to the present invention has an electromagnetic wave source (13) such as an ultraviolet lamp or the like, a cylinder (15) surrounding the electromagnetic wave source, a liquid retention tank (16) disposed around the cylinder, and an inlet portion (17) for introducing a liquid overflow from the liquid retention tank as a thin film flowing down an inner wall surface of the cylinder, which is irradiated with an electromagnetic wave from the ultraviolet lamp (11). The electromagnetic wave applying apparatus also has swirling flow forming means for causing the liquid introduced from the inlet portion (17) onto the inner wall surface of the cylinder to flow as a swirling flow down the inner wall surface. The electromagnetic wave applying apparatus allows a large amount of liquid to be stably treated by the application of an electromagnetic wave without causing the electromagnetic wave source such as an ultraviolet lamp or the like to be contaminated.
