A multi-functional water filtration apparatus includes an outer housing defining a receptacle for receiving a filter assembly and having an inlet port at a first end for intake of unfiltered water and being open at a second end. The filter assembly includes an endcap closing the second end of the outer housing and a filter element enclosed within the outer housing. The endcap has an outlet port for dispensing filtered water. The outer housing has a flow passageway extending between the inlet port and the outlet port. The filter element is disposed in the flow passageway and has an upstream side in fluid communication with the inlet port and a downstream side in fluid communication with the outlet port. In certain aspects, the filtration apparatus provides multiple attachment options. In further aspects, a method of filtering water is provided.

A modular water filtration system including a first filter manifold and a second filter manifold is provided. The first filter manifold includes a first bracket and a first pair of arm members horizontally extending from the first bracket. One of the first pair of arm members includes a protrusion defining a bore. The second filter manifold includes a second bracket and a second pair of arm members horizontally extending from the second bracket. One of the second pair of arm members includes a duct, and the duct is configured to receive the protrusion of the first filter manifold to provide fluid communication through the bore between the first filter manifold and the second filter manifold.

A purification device is provided that includes a porous container, purification media retained in the porous container, and a flow controller integral to the porous container. A purification device is also provided that includes a porous elastic container, purification media, and a flow controller. The porous elastic container has a pocket formed therein. The purification media is compressibly retained in the porous elastic container. The flow controller is elastically retained in the pocket of the porous elastic container.

A processing device for grey water for a rail vehicle includes a grey water container, a grey water supply in an inlet region, a drain for processed grey water in an outlet region, and a slotted filter between the inlet and outlet regions that has at least one movable sliding member which touches the base of the grey water container in a lowered position and is lifted off the base in a raised position. The base of the grey water container rises from the inlet region to the outlet region. A cleaning outflow is disposed in the inlet region on the base side. A fresh water supply for supplying fresh water is disposed in the outlet region. A rail vehicle having at least one processing device for grey water for a toilet module or toilet bowl is also provided.

A method for treating a wastewater or a wastewater sludge includes adding performic acid to the wastewater and/or the waster sludge as an odor controlling agent and/or corrosion controlling agent.

The invention discloses a double-tank oxidation pond for evaluating catalytic ozonation efficiency, comprising detachable tank bodies made of organic glass, movable ozone aeration pipes and sampling holes. Each tank body has three sections. The height of ozone aeration tube and the number of the holes can be adjusted. The holes are distributed at different positions of the tank bodies for real-time in-situ sampling. It is easy to observe the distribution profile of the gas, liquid and solid phases in the tank bodies. The square double-tank structure is similar to actual production process, and thus the experimental data is easy for computer simulation to enlarge to the actual production process. The size of the ozone aeration pipe and the position of holes in the tank can be adjusted to evaluate the catalytic ozonation effect of sewage treated by different aeration ways and aeration heights.

A stormwater capture housing system designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by filtering solid waste from stormwater flow in roadways, transportation facilities, and pavement, while maintaining an optimal flow rate and enabling safe accessibility. The system comprises a housing unit with top grates that enable stormwater and solid waste to drain from the roadway into a sub-grade capture area formed by a screen weir and a screen box. The screen box ensures that the solid waste is collected while the water filters into a clean water area. The screen weir also filters solid waste and is further configured to allow for an overflow of stormwater and solid waste. Another section of the top wall has a filled grating configuration that allows for stormwater to drain without passing any solid waste to prevent flooding, also enabling access to the internal components of the housing system.
