The ozone chamber is configured to generate an ozone gas from received air. The device also includes a filtration duct positioned within the portable housing and downstream from the inlet. The filtration duct includes at least one oxidation chamber configured to mix the received water with the ozone gas, and at least one ultraviolet (UV) chamber downstream from the at least one oxidation chamber and including a UV lamp positioned adjacent the water within the filtration duct. The device further includes an outlet positioned on the portable housing and downstream from the filtration duct. The filtration duct is operable to output at least 150 liters per hour of the received water from the outlet as potable water.

Various implementations include an aeration device. The aeration device includes a venturi tube and an outlet tube. The venturi tube has an outlet port and an air intake port. The outlet tube has a first end coupled to the outlet port of the venturi tube, a second end opposite and spaced apart from the first end, and an intermediate portion disposed between the first and second ends of the outlet tube. The intermediate portion is helically shaped and extends around a helical axis of the intermediate portion. The intermediate portion extends at least one rotation about the helical axis.

Glycine is an organic compound that can be used in the making of a synthetic acid that obviates all the drawbacks of strong acids such as hydrochloric acid. The new compound is made by dissolving glycine in water, in a weight ratio of approximately 1:1 to 1:1.5. The solution is mixed until the glycine is essentially fully dissolved in the water. Once dissolution is complete, hydrogen chloride gas is dissolved in the solution to produce the new compound, which can be referred to as hydrogen glycine. Also disclosed is a method for adjusting the pH of a fluid, the method comprising adding an effective amount of a solution to the fluid for adjusting the pH thereof to a desired level, wherein the solution is prepared by mixing glycine in water to form a glycine solution; and adding hydrogen chloride to the glycine solution.

A powder transfer bag includes a balloon or a membrane sealing its mouth. A connector to be used with the bags allows the bag to connect to a hydration device. A method of hydrating material in a powder transfer bag is provided.

A micro-bubble generator has an intake manifold, a casing threadingly connected to the intake manifold, a first air inlet channel defined between threads of the intake manifold and the casing, a booster located inside the casing and having a gap defined between the casing and the booster to form a second air inlet channel and to communicate with the first air inlet channel, a bubble generating tube located inside the casing and having a third air inlet channel defined between the end faces of the bubble generating tube and of the booster. The booster includes a first water inlet and a first water outlet having an inner diameter smaller than that of the first water inlet so that water velocity at the first water outlet is faster than that at the first water inlet, which forces ambient air to enter the bubble generating tube via air inlet channels and to be mixed with water in the bubble generating tube to generate bubbles. Bubbles are cut into micro-bubbles after passing through the cutter and exit the bubble exit.

An improved system for providing a homogeneous polymer-sludge composition to dewatering equipment includes an input mechanism that is adapted to receive sludge from a first supply source, and polymer materials from a second supply source. The input mechanism functioning to perform an initial blending of the materials before discharging the same to a pump unit. The pump unit comprising a boundary layer viscous drag pump that functions to efficiently and simultaneously mix and pump the polymer/sludge material to dewatering equipment in a manner that does not shear the polymer or reduce the efficiency, as previously experienced with downstream mixing units.

A baffle pipe segment (1) as obstacle in a flow of a target liquid through the baffle pipe segment (1), comprising a baffle element (3) arranged in the path of the target liquid, wherein a slit (14) for passage of the target liquid is formed between a segment hull (8) of the baffle pipe segment (1) and the baffle element (3). The baffle element (3) comprises at least one first positive curvature (3a) towards the input side. The slit (14) is delimited by an inner wall (14a) and an outer wall (14b), wherein the inner wall (14a) is formed by a wall section of the baffle element (3) and the outer wall (14b) of the slit (14) is formed by a section of the segment hull (8). The slit (14) extends in a perpendicular direction to the longitudinal axis (z) along a section of the circumference of the segment hull (8). And an injector device (7) with such a baffle pipe segment (1) and a dissolving installation (50) with such an injector device (7).

Systems and methods for dissolving ozone gas in a liquid. An embodiment can comprise a tank having an upper region, a lower region, and a discharge outlet, all disposed in a specified geometry. A pump can be coupled with a liquid inlet in order to receive a liquid therefrom and to deliver the liquid via a pipe to the upper region of the tank. The pump can be coupled with the lower region of the tank in order to receive the liquid from the tank and to recirculate the liquid to the upper region of the tank. The apparatus can include an ozone inlet to receive ozone into the tank. The ozone inlet can comprise a venturi inlet disposed on the pipe downstream of the pump. The liquid can be released from the tank and depressurized, thereby providing for the ozone to emerge from the liquid as gas bubbles. The released liquid can be selected for a two-stage gas and aqueous cleaning process.
