METHODS AND DEVICES FOR FILTERING CELL CULTURE MEDIA
The present disclosure provides, in part, a receptacle for filtering a liquid. The receptacle comprises a plurality of hollow fibers extending the length of the receptacle and at least one solid absorbent material occupying a space between the plurality of hollow fibers. Each hollow fiber comprises at least one opening and a lumen defined by the walls thereof, allowing the liquid to flow through. The hollow fiber walls have a porosity profile selective to passage of waste materials contained in the liquid from the lumen to the solid absorbent material(s), thereby filtering the liquid. Also provided is a system as well as a method for filtering and recycling a cell culture medium.

LIQUID PURIFICATION SYSTEM
A liquid purification system with purified water mineralization, which uses predominantly water from various resources. The main problem of existing liquid purification systems, particularly membrane systems, is that during purification process not only dangerous debris (residual oil, pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals, bacteria, viruses, mechanical particles and other) are removed, but even minerals necessary for human (calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium and other), so mineralization step is needed after purification step to normalize mineral composition. In the state of the art are known liquid purification systems with integral mineralization means and also devices for mineralization, which can be connected to liquid purification systems. The working principle of systems, known in the state of the art, is that purified liquid flows through the vessel with mineralization additive, which is partly dissolved, and the liquid becomes mineralized. The main drawback of the systems known in the state of the art is that due to peculiarities of the dissolving process and/or mineralization additive content it is impossible to control mineralization process, so the mineralization level is minor, and the pH is higher than the permitted value. Liquid purification system containing raw liquid line, liquid purification unit, mineralization unit, purified liquid line is characterized in that, mineralization of liquid is done by controlled dispensing of mineralization solution, obtained by selective raw or drainage liquids or their mixture.
METHOD FOR INTRODUCING A GAS AND GAS INTRODUCING DEVICE
A method for introducing a gas into a liquid, the method including filling a gas volume enclosed below a free surface of the liquid and defined in a downward direction by an enclosed level of the liquid with the gas in sequential pulses wherein the gas simultaneously displaces the liquid top down from a gas lifting channel until the enclosed level of the liquid drops below an inlet cross section of a gas flow out channel; subsequently flowing the gas out of the gas volume downward through the gas lifting channel, a deflection portion adjoining at a bottom of the gas lifting channel, in upward direction through the inlet cross section and through the gas flow out channel adjoining the inlet cross section at a top to the free surface.
Systems and Methods for Gas-Liquid Contactors for Rapid Carbon Capture
Systems and methods of gas-liquid contactors for direct ocean capture and/or direct air capture are described.
Oxygenator of organic fluids
The oxygenator of organic fluids comprises: a container body having a longitudinal axis; a first inlet opening for the oxygen and a second outlet opening for an exhaust gas obtained in the container body; a third inlet opening for an organic fluid to be oxygenated and a fourth outlet opening for oxygenated organic fluid obtained in the container body; an oxygenation chamber of the fluid to be oxygenated that is defined inside the container body; a distribution pre-chamber of the fluid to be oxygenated fitted between the third inlet opening and the oxygenation chamber; a mass of capillary fibers that are impermeable to liquids and porous to gasses, designed to be lapped by the organic fluid and arranged inside the oxygenation chamber according with a common parallel direction; dynamic distribution means supported in the distribution pre-chamber by support means.
Humidifier for fuel cell
A humidifier for a fuel cell includes: a housing that includes a moist air supply port through which moist air is supplied, a moist air discharge port through which the moist air is discharged, and an inflow gas supply port through which inflow gas is supplied; a humidification unit provided in the housing to humidify the inflow gas by using the moist air; and a humidification amount adjusting unit to selectively adjust an amount of humidification of the inflow gas by the humidification unit based on a flow rate of the moist air supplied to the moist air supply port, thereby obtaining an advantageous effect of accurately adjusting the amount of humidification based on an operating condition of a fuel cell stack.
