A clumpable animal litter comprises composite particles of filler materials, such as limestone and sand, and sodium bentonite. The filler materials have a lower bulk density as compared to a granular mixture of the same percentage of filler and sodium bentonite clay and contain up to eighty-five percent less clay.

A composite filter aid may include diatomaceous earth, natural glass, and a precipitated silica binder, wherein the filter aid has a permeability ranging from 3 to 20 darcys. A composite filter aid may include diatomaceous earth, perlite, and a precipitated silica binder, wherein the filter aid has an alpha density less than 15 lbs/ft.sup.3. A method for making a composite material may include blending diatomaceous earth and perlite, adding alkali silicate to the blended diatomaceous earth and perlite, and precipitating the alkali silicate as a binder to make the composite material. A method for filtering a beverage may include using a composite filter aid and/or composite material.

The problem to be solved is to deal with infectious diseases caused by pathogens that invade from the outside with ventilation to the cultivation room and adhere to the leaf surface or float in the cultivation room.

A silicate clay ore is powdered, and the powdered clay ore is mixed with water and stirred to prepare suspension water or its supernatant water. The present invention proposes a method of atomizing into a cultivation room using an atomizer capable of generating an air flow having a predetermined momentum.

The present invention relates to a compact container having a discharge plate made of ceramic, and more specifically, a compact container having a discharge plate made of ceramic, wherein, since the discharge plate is made of ceramic, the discharge plate is not to be worn out when a user spreads gel contents on the discharge plate and impregnates the puff with the gel contents. The ceramic which forms the discharge plate has high hardness and excellent heat resistance and wear resistance, thereby enabling long-time use. Cosmetic is allowed to exert antibacterial and antiseptic actions and heavy metal-removing and deodorizing functions when passing through the discharge plate. In addition, since the discharge plate is made of ceramic, the discharge plate is not bent and is lowered down with the entire part thereof balanced, even when the user presses the discharge plate for use of the cosmetic.

A method of water treatment includes providing water that includes at least one contaminant. An effective amount of at least one filter media is added to the to the water that includes at least one contaminant. The water and the at least one filter media are agitated to form a homogeneous mixture. A cationic biopolymer is added to the homogeneous mixture of water and the at least one filter media. The water is separated from the at least one contaminant and the at least one filter media.
