A device for preparing washing water, belonging to the technical field of electro-chemical and membrane filtration water treatment. The device comprises a water container which is respectively provided with a water inlet and a water outlet; at least one pair of a cathode and an anode are arranged within the water container; a water-permeable porous membrane is clamped between the coupled cathode and anode with no gaps, and the area of the inside of the water-permeable porous membrane opposite the cathode or the anode is smaller than the area of the inside of the cathode or the anode opposite the water-permeable porous membrane. The device can generate washing water which contains a large a number of ultra-micro bubbles and strong oxidation factors and has excellent reducibility.

Contaminants are filtered from a fluid flow stream and the filter is regenerated by a process including steps of: providing a filter material comprising both carbon and potassium iodide; passing a contaminated fluid stream in contact with the filter material; adsorbing contaminants from the fluid stream onto surfaces in the filter material; passing an electric current through the filter material with adsorbed contaminant thereon; disassociating contaminant from the surfaces of the filter material; and removing disassociated contaminant from the filter material by carrying away the disassociated contaminant in a fluid flow mass.

Disclosed are a method, a device, and/or system of effective and/or safe ozonation of water in a tank through evolved gas control. In one embodiment, a system for effective ozonation of water includes an ozone generator for producing ozone partially in the form of ozone gas, and a disperser. The disperser is configured to receive ozone gas from the ozone generator rising through the water as ozone bubbles disperse the ozone bubbles within the water. The disperser increases a contact time of the ozone and/or distributes dissolution of the ozone in the water. The disperser may include one or more bubble paths guiding the ozone bubbles. The ozone generator may be an electrolytic ozone unit. An electrode may include a proton exchange membrane electrically coupling an anode and a cathode of an electrode, where hydrogen gas generated at the cathode may be vented and/or conveyed to a catalytic decomposition unit.

An oxygen evolution reaction catalyst is a ternary metal oxide that includes Mn and is represented by Mn.sub.uSb.sub.vO.sub.w in the rutile crystal phase and M.sub.xMn.sub.yO.sub.z where M is selected from the group consisting of Ca, Ni, Sr, Zn, Mg, Ni, Ba, Co and where u/(u+v) is greater than 33%.

An emergency treatment device for algal blooms in reservoir tributaries and bays includes a hull, an automatic detection unit provided on the hull, an algae collection-separation unit, an ultrasonic algae removal unit, a micro-current electrolytic algae suppression unit, an algaecide adding unit, a power unit and a control unit. The automatic detection unit, the algae collection-separation unit, the ultrasonic algae removal unit, the micro-current electrolytic algae suppression unit, the algaecide adding unit and the power unit are connected with the control unit. The algae collection-separation unit is used for suction and ex-situ treatment of high-density algae on a surface of the water body. The ultrasonic algae removal unit, the micro-current electrolytic algae suppression unit and the algaecide adding unit are used for in-situ treatment of algae in the water body.

The present invention relates to a process for purification of wastewater. In particular, the present invention pertains to an improved process for purification of wastewater by employing anolyte as an additive.

A device for treating a liquid including an organic pollutant, the device including: a device for injecting, into the liquid, microbubbles of an containing fluid containing an oxygenated constituent, the oxygenated constituent being capable of reacting with the ferrous cations Fe.sup.2+ so as to generate hydroxyl radicals OH and hydrogen peroxide H.sub.2O.sub.2; a cavitation generator capable of generating bubbles in the liquid by cavitation; a bubble implosion chamber; a generator of ferrous cations Fe.sup.2+, the cavitation bubble implosion chamber being placed in a region in which the liquid contains the ferrous cations.

An apparatus has a tank with an interior for containing water, a nozzle for directing ozonated water out of the spray apparatus, and an electrolytic cell located between the nozzle and the tank. The electrolytic cell is configured to ozonate water as the water flows from the tank to the nozzle. The apparatus also includes a power source for providing electric potential to the electrolytic cell. The tank, nozzle, and electrolytic cell all are part of a single spray bottle or dispenser (e.g., like a soap dispenser).

Methods and systems for treatment of wastewater. In some embodiments, the system may comprise one or more modules such as an electrochemical module, an electrocoagulation module, a flotation module, an evaporation module, and an ultrafiltration module. One or more detection modules may also be provided to analyze the concentration of one or more wastewater components in the wastewater. Data from such modules may be used to adjust one or more operational parameters or conditions in the treatment system. The system may also comprise one or more features designed to minimize adverse effects on the environment, such as avoiding adding chemicals to the stream, extracting salt or other chemicals for re-use, and/or use of carbon dioxide gas from on-site combustion processes.

Organo clay and activated carbon are mixed to form a particle mixture. The particle mixture is contacted with waste water having chlorides and other contaminants, such as organic materials, heavy metals, chlorides, and low level radio nuclei in solution. Acids, oxidizing chemicals, and compressed air are added to pretreat and to treat the waste water. The mixture is filtered with catalytic activated carbon filters to remove the remaining contaminants. The filters produce a clean chloride solution that is discharged or is subjected to a finishing process to produce a marketable chloride product.
