The water supply system for aircraft includes a tank for storing water, a water supply pipe, and an ultraviolet sterilization device. The water supply pipe extends from the tank, branches and is connected to each of the plurality of water supply outlets, and supplies water from the tank to the plurality of water supply outlets. The ultraviolet sterilization device is provided on the water supply pipe close to at least the water supply outlet for drinking water, includes a light-emitting diode emitting ultraviolet light, and sterilizes water supplied to the water supply outlet by irradiating the water with ultraviolet light from the light-emitting diode.

A skid mounted device for upper-spreading internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic wastewater treatment includes internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic reaction tank groups and a skid base. The internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic reaction tank groups are arranged on the skid base. The internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic reaction tank groups are connected to each other in series, in parallel, or in series-parallel. Each internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic reaction tank group consists of two or more photocatalytic reaction tanks connected in series, in parallel, or in series-parallel. The wastewater pipes connected to the photocatalytic reaction tanks in each internal diffusion vertical plug flow photocatalytic reaction tank group are mounted above the photocatalytic reaction tanks.

A reactor that operates with ultraviolet light emitting diodes (UV-LEDs) to attain UV photoreactions or UV photo-initiated reaction in a fluid flow for various applications, including water purification. The UV-LED reactor is comprised of a conduit means for passing fluid flow, an ultraviolet light emitting diode (UV-LED), and a radiation-focusing element to focus the UV-LED radiation to the fluid in the longitudinal direction of the conduit proportionally to the fluid velocity in the cross section of the conduit.

A fluid treatment module includes a pipe providing a flow channel in which fluid flows, the pipe having an inlet and an outlet, a light source module including a substrate and at least one light emitting diode disposed on an upper surface of the substrate and emitting light into the pipe to treat the fluid, a reflector disposed inside the pipe to reflect the light emitted from the light source module and having higher reflectivity with respect to the light than the pipe, and a heat dissipation plate contacting a rear surface of the substrate to dissipate heat from the light source module. The inlet, the outlet, or both are provided in plural to allow a flow speed and a flow direction of the fluid flowing into the pipe to be controlled, and the heat dissipation plate has higher thermal conductivity than the substrate.

Methods and systems are provided for disinfecting water mains using ultraviolet (UV) light and advanced oxidation processes. One or more UV light sources are provided and secured to a movable device that moves axially in a pipe. The frequency and intensity of the UV light is determined based on characteristics of the pipe, such as its material and size. The rate at which the movable device moves through the pipe is also determined so that the interior surface of the pipe is properly disinfected. The movable device is remotely caused to move through the pipe. An oxidant supply component having a dispensing portion dispenses an oxidizing agent into the pipe. A portion of the emitted UV light may convert the dispensed oxidizing agent into additional oxidizing agents that further disinfect the pipe.

An ultraviolet (UV) light disinfection system for treating water prior to its delivery to a water usage device. One or more UV light emitting diodes (LEDs) are positioned within a water system floor interface in order to expose water flowing through the system to germicidal light treatment.

A solution for irradiating a flowing fluid through a channel with ultraviolet radiation is provided. Ultraviolet radiation sources can be located within the channel in order to direct ultraviolet radiation towards the flowing fluid and/or the interior of the channel. A valve can be located adjacent to the channel to control the flow rate of the fluid. A control system can control and adjust the ultraviolet radiation based on the flow rate of the fluid and a user input component can receive a user input for the control system to adjust the ultraviolet radiation. The ultraviolet radiation sources, the control system, the user input component, and any other components that require electricity can receive power from a rechargeable power supply. An electrical generator located within the channel can convert energy from the fluid flowing through the channel into electricity for charging the rechargeable power supply.

A water disinfection system with a flow-through treatment chamber, a plurality of elongated ultraviolet lamps positioned parallel to each other in at least one array within the treatment chamber, and a stand-alone frame which holds in place the lamps of the array and which is constructed so that all lamps of the array can be lifted out of the chamber simultaneously. The array is disposed so that the water must pass through the array. The frame has a cuboid outer shape, an upstream end including front frame members, a downstream end including rear frame members, and a frame center section including side frame members. The array is contained inside the cuboid shape and the frame is positioned in the chamber in an unguided manner and has attachment elements for attaching the frame to a lifting mechanism.

The inventive device efficiently cools, with a simple construction, heat generated from an ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV-LED). The UV-LED is accommodated in a housing that has an open end and an ultraviolet-transparent closing end. A portion of the housing adjacent to the closing end contacts to-be-treated liquid, ultraviolet rays generated from the UV-LED are irradiated to the to-be-treated liquid, and the housing is cooled by the to-be-treated liquid. In this way, the heat generated from the UV-LED can be cooled with a simple construction without use of arrangements for introducing dedicated cooling fluid for cooling the UV-LED. A heat discharge block for discharging to the outside the heat generated from the UV-LED may be provided at or adjacent to the open end of the housing. Further, the present invention may be constructed in such a manner that a portion of the discharge section directly contacts the to-be-treated liquid.

A sterilization device includes: a processing chamber in which a fluid passing through a straightener flows in a first direction, the straightener being provided at an inlet of the processing chamber; a plurality of light emitting devices arranged in an array on a plane facing the straightener in the first direction, sandwiching the processing chamber, and irradiating the fluid in the processing chamber with ultraviolet light; a light source chamber that houses the plurality of light emitting devices inside; and a discharge path provided to the side of the light source chamber and allowing the fluid passing through the processing chamber to flow in the first direction.
